Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

(tabular dollars and shares in thousands, except per share amounts)

(unaudited)

1.	ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Paycom Software, Inc. (“Software”) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) is a leading provider of comprehensive, cloud-based human capital management (“HCM”) software delivered as Software-as-a-Service. Unless we state otherwise or the context otherwise requires, the terms “we,” “our,” “us” and the “Company” refer to Software and its consolidated subsidiaries.

We provide functionality and data analytics that businesses need to manage the complete employment lifecycle, from recruitment to retirement. Our solution requires virtually no customization and is based on a core system of record maintained in a single database for all HCM functions, including talent acquisition, time and labor management, payroll, talent management and human resources (“HR”) management applications.

2.	SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Our significant accounting policies are discussed in “Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the notes to our audited consolidated financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 (the “Form 10-K”).

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and notes have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial statements that permit reduced disclosure for interim periods. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of our consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2019 and our consolidated statements of income, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018. Such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Form 10-Q”) should be read in conjunction with the Form 10-K. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year.

Reclassifications

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified in connection with the adoption of Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-18, “Restricted Cash” (“ASU 2016-18”) as discussed below. In addition to these adjustments, in the consolidated balance sheets, we combined the line items “Intangible assets, net” and “Other assets” in the prior period in order to conform to the current period presentation.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2019, we adopted ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” using the modified retrospective approach. Under this adoption method, we have not restated comparative prior periods and have carried forward the assessment of whether our contracts are or contain leases, the classification of our leases and the remaining lease terms. See Note 6 for a discussion of our adoption of this standard.

In August 2018, the SEC adopted the final rule under SEC Release No. 33-10532, Disclosure Update and Simplification, to eliminate or modify certain disclosure rules that are redundant, outdated, or duplicative of U.S. GAAP or other regulatory requirements. In addition, the amendments provide that disclosure requirements related to the analysis of stockholders' equity are expanded for interim financial statements. An analysis of the changes in each caption of stockholders' equity presented in the balance sheet is provided in the consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity.

During the three months ended June 30, 2019, we adopted ASU 2016-18, which was effective on January 1, 2018. This guidance requires that the consolidated statements of cash flows explain the change during the reporting period of the totals of cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts for restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents are to be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the consolidated statements of cash flows. Accordingly, we applied the guidance using the retrospective transition method to each period presented, which adjusted the consolidated statements of cash flows to include restricted cash held to satisfy client funds obligations, as a component of cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents.

Impact on Previously Reported Results

As noted above, we adopted ASU 2016-18 during the three months ending June 30, 2019. We assessed the materiality of this presentation on prior periods’ consolidated financial statements in accordance with the SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 99, “Materiality”, codified in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 250, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections.” Based on this assessment, we concluded that the correction is not material to any previously issued interim financial statements. The correction had no impact on our consolidated statements of income or consolidated balance sheets in previously issued consolidated financial statements. We will conform presentation of previously reported consolidated statements of cash flow information in future filings.

The following tables present the unaudited consolidated statements of cash flows line items after giving effect to the adoption of ASU 2016-18:

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 amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant estimates include income taxes, loss contingencies, the useful life of property and equipment and intangible assets, the life of our client relationships, the fair value of our stock-based awards and the fair value of our financial instruments, intangible assets and goodwill. These estimates are based on historical experience where applicable and other assumptions that management believes are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could materially differ from these estimates.

Seasonality

Our revenues are seasonal in nature. Recurring revenues include revenues relating to the annual processing of payroll forms, such as Form W-2, Form 1099, and Form 1095 and revenues from processing unscheduled payroll runs (such as bonuses) for our clients. As payroll forms are typically processed in the first quarter of the year, first quarter revenues and margins are generally higher than in subsequent quarters. These seasonal fluctuations in revenues can also have an impact on gross profits. Historical results impacted by these seasonal trends should not be considered a reliable indicator of our future results of operations.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

An award issued under the Paycom Software, Inc. Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”) is classified as a share-based liability and recognized at the fair value of the award. Expense is recognized, net of estimated forfeitures, on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period.

Funds Held for Clients and Client Funds Obligation

As part of our payroll and tax filing application, we (i) collect client funds to satisfy their respective federal, state and local employment tax obligations, (ii) remit such funds to the appropriate taxing authorities and accounts designated by our clients, and (iii) manage client tax filings and any related correspondence with taxing authorities. Amounts collected by us from clients for their federal, state and local employment taxes are invested by us, and we earn interest on these funds during the interval between receipt and disbursement.

These investments are shown in our consolidated balance sheets as funds held for clients, and the offsetting liability for the tax filings is shown as client funds obligation. The liability is recognized in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets at the time we obtain the funds from clients. The client funds obligation represents liabilities that will be repaid within one year of the consolidated balance sheet date. As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the funds held for clients were invested in money market funds, demand deposit accounts, commercial paper with a maturity duration less than three months and certificates of deposit. Short-term investments in commercial paper and certificates of deposit with an original maturity duration greater than three months are classified as available-for-sale securities, and are also included within the funds held for clients line item in the consolidated balance sheets. These available-for-sale securities are recognized in the consolidated balance sheets at fair value, which approximates the amortized cost of the securities. Funds held for clients are classified as a current asset in the consolidated balance sheets because the funds are held solely to satisfy the client funds obligation.

Stock Repurchase Plan

In May 2016, our Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase plan allowing for the repurchase of shares of our common stock in open market transactions at prevailing market prices, in privately negotiated transactions or by other means in accordance with federal securities laws, including Rule 10b5-1 programs. Since the initial authorization of the stock repurchase plan, our Board of Directors has amended and extended and authorized new stock repurchase plans from time to time. Most recently, in November 2018, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $150.0 million of our common stock. As of September 30, 2019, there was $119.7 million available for repurchases under our stock repurchase plan. Our stock repurchase plan may be suspended or discontinued at any time. The actual timing, number and value of shares repurchased depends on a number of factors, including the market price of our common stock, general market and economic conditions, shares withheld for taxes associated with the vesting of restricted stock and other corporate considerations. The current stock repurchase plan will expire on November 19, 2020.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we repurchased an aggregate of 218,446 shares of our common stock at an average cost of $193.32 per share to satisfy tax withholding obligations for certain employees upon the vesting of restricted stock.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2018-15, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force)” (“ASU 2018-15”). ASU 2018-15 aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software (and hosting arrangements that include an internal-use software license). This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this guidance will not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement” (“ASU 2018-13”). ASU 2018-13 modifies the disclosure requirements in Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement,” based on the FASB Concepts Statement, “Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting – Chapter 8: Notes to Financial Statements,” including consideration of costs and benefits. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this guidance will not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

REVENUE

Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our clients in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to for those goods or services. Substantially all of our revenues are comprised of revenue from contracts with clients. Sales and other applicable taxes are excluded from revenues.

Recurring Revenues

Recurring revenues are derived primarily from our talent acquisition, time and labor management, payroll, talent management and HR management applications as well as fees charged for form ﬁlings and delivery of client payroll checks and reports. Talent acquisition includes our applicant tracking, candidate tracker, background check, on-boarding, e-verify and tax credit services applications. Time and labor management includes time and attendance, scheduling/schedule exchange, time-off requests, labor allocation, labor management reports/push reporting and geofencing/geotracking. Payroll includes our payroll and tax management, Paycom Pay, expense management, garnishment management and GL Concierge applications. Talent management includes our employee self-service, compensation budgeting, performance management, executive dashboard and Paycom learning and course content applications. HR management includes our document and task management, government and compliance, beneﬁts administration, COBRA administration, personnel action forms, surveys and enhanced Affordable Care Act applications.

The performance obligations related to recurring revenues are satisfied during each client’s payroll period, with the agreed-upon fee being charged and collected as part of our processing of the client’s payroll. Recurring revenues are recognized at the conclusion of processing of each client’s payroll period, when each respective payroll client is billed. Collectability is reasonably assured as the fees are collected through an automated clearing house as part of the client’s payroll cycle or through direct wire transfer, which minimizes the default risk.

The contract period for substantially all contracts associated with these revenues is one month due to the fact that both we and the client have the unilateral right to terminate a wholly unperformed contract without compensating the other party by providing 30 days’ notice of termination. Our payroll application is the foundation of our solution, and all of our clients are required to utilize this application in order to access our other applications. For clients who purchase multiple applications, due to the short-term nature of our contracts, we do not believe it is meaningful to separately assess and identify whether or not each application potentially represents its own, individual, performance obligation as the revenue generated from each application is recognized within the same month as the revenue from the core payroll application. Similarly, we do not believe it is meaningful to individually determine the standalone selling price for each application. We consider the total price charged to a client in a given period to be indicative of the standalone selling price, as the total amount charged is within a reasonable range of prices typically charged for our goods and services for comparable classes of client groups.

Implementation and Other Revenues

Implementation and other revenues consist of nonrefundable upfront conversion fees which are charged to new clients to offset the expense of new client set-up as well as revenues from the sale of time clocks as part of our employee time and attendance services. Although these revenues are related to our recurring revenues, they represent distinct performance obligations.

Implementation activities primarily represent administrative activities that allow us to fulfill future performance obligations for our clients and do not represent services transferred to the client. However, the nonrefundable upfront fee charged to our clients results in an implied performance obligation in the form of a material right to the client related to the client’s option to renew at the end of each 30-day contract period. Further, given that all other services within the contract are sold at a total price indicative of the standalone selling price, coupled with the fact that the upfront fees are consistent with upfront fees charged in similar contracts that we have with clients, the standalone selling price of the client’s option to renew the contract approximates the dollar amount of the nonrefundable upfront fee. The nonrefundable upfront fee is typically included on the client’s first invoice, and is deferred and recognized ratably over the estimated renewal period (i.e., ten-year estimated client life).

Revenues from the sale of time clocks are recognized when control is transferred to the client upon delivery of the product. We estimate the standalone selling price for the time clocks by maximizing the use of observable inputs such as our specific pricing practices for time clocks.

Contract Balances

The timing of revenue recognition for recurring services is consistent with the invoicing of clients as they both occur during the respective client payroll period for which the services are provided. Therefore, we do not recognize a contract asset or liability resulting from the timing of revenue recognition and invoicing.

Changes in deferred revenue related to material right performance obligations as of September 30, 2019 and 2018 were as follows:

	Three Months Ended September 30,						Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2019			2018			2019			2018
Balance, beginning of period	$	70,004		$	57,189		$	64,651		$	51,624
Deferral of revenue		6,631			5,643			17,651			14,902
Recognition of unearned revenue		(3,270	)		(2,018	)		(8,937	)		(5,712	)
Balance, end of period	$	73,365		$	60,814		$	73,365		$	60,814

We expect to recognize $2.8 million of deferred revenue related to material right performance obligations in the remainder of 2019, $10.5 million of such deferred revenue in 2020, and $60.1 million of such deferred revenue thereafter.

Assets Recognized from the Costs to Obtain and Costs to Fulfill Revenue Contracts

We recognize an asset for the incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a client if we expect the amortization period to be longer than one year. We also recognize an asset for the costs to fulfill a contract with a client if such costs are specifically identifiable, generate or enhance resources used to satisfy future performance obligations, and are expected to be recovered. We have determined that substantially all costs related to implementation activities are administrative in nature and also meet the capitalization criteria under ASC 340-40. These capitalized costs to fulfill principally relate to upfront direct costs that are expected to be recovered through margin and that enhance our ability to satisfy future performance obligations.

The assets related to both costs to obtain, and costs to fulfill, contracts with clients are accounted for utilizing a portfolio approach, and are capitalized and amortized over the expected period of benefit, which we have determined to be the estimated client relationship of ten years. The expected period of benefit has been determined to be the estimated life of the client relationship primarily because we incur no new costs to obtain, or costs to fulfill, a contract upon renewal of such contract. Additional commission costs may be incurred when an existing client purchases additional applications; however, these commission costs relate solely to the additional applications purchased and are not related to contract renewal. Furthermore, additional fulfillment costs associated with existing clients purchasing additional applications are minimized by our seamless single-database platform. These assets are presented as deferred contract costs in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Amortization expense related to costs to obtain and costs to fulfill a contract are included in the “sales and marketing” and “general and administrative” line items in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.

The following tables present the asset balances and related amortization expense for these contract costs:

	As of and for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2019

5.	GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS, NET

As of both September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, goodwill was $51.9 million. We have selected June 30 as our annual goodwill impairment testing date. We have elected to perform a qualitative analysis of the fair value of our goodwill and determined there was no impairment as of June 30, 2019. As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, there were no indicators of impairment.

All of our intangible assets other than goodwill are considered to have definite lives and, as such, are subject to amortization. The following tables provide the components of intangible assets, which are included in Other assets in our consolidated balance sheets:

	September 30, 2019
	Weighted Average Remaining				Accumulated
	Useful Life		Gross		Amortization			Net
	(Years)
Intangibles:
Trade name		2.8	$	3,194	$	(2,608	)	$	586

LEASES

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842).” The purpose of this new guidance is to increase the transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets as well as providing additional disclosure requirements related to leasing arrangements. The new guidance was effective for us beginning January 1, 2019, which we adopted using a modified retrospective method and the transition relief guidance provided by the FASB in ASU 2018-11. Under this adoption method, we have not restated comparative prior periods and have carried forward the assessment of whether our contracts are or contain leases, the classification of our leases and the remaining lease terms. Based on our portfolio of leases at January 1, 2019, $21.6 million of lease assets and liabilities were recognized in our consolidated balance sheets, which related to operating leases for real estate. Under the transition relief guidance, we have elected the lease vs. non-lease components practical expedient relating to the asset class of real estate, the short-term lease exemption practical expedient and the package of practical expedients. In connection with the adoption of this standard, we updated our control framework and implemented changes to our existing controls to account for leases.

The Company’s leases primarily consist of noncancellable operating leases for office space with contractual terms expiring from 2019 to 2025. All of our leases are operating leases and, as a lessee, we have not entered into any sublease agreements. The lease term is defined as the fixed noncancellable term of the lease plus all periods, if any, for which failure to renew the lease imposes a penalty on us in an amount that appears, at the inception of the lease, to be reasonably assured. While some of our leases include an option to extend the lease up to five years, it is not reasonably certain that any such options will be exercised due, in part, to the dynamic nature of our sales force and rate of growth. Some of our leases contain termination options that are not reasonably certain to be exercised. However, if a termination option is exercised, we remeasure the lease asset in the consolidated balance sheets using the updated lease period. None of our leases contain residual value guarantees, substantial restrictions or covenants.

Lease assets of $25.3 million as of September 30, 2019 were included in Other assets in our consolidated balance sheets, which included a $1.5 million reduction to Other Assets for deferred rent. When a lease contains a predetermined fixed escalation of the minimum rent, we recognize the related lease expense on a straight-line basis and record the difference between the lease expense and the amount payable under the lease as an adjustment to the right-of-use asset. Short-term lease liabilities of $9.6 million as of September 30, 2019 were included in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets. In addition, long-term lease liabilities of $17.2 million as of September 30, 2019 were recognized in Other long-term liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets.

Rent expense associated with operating leases for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 was $2.6 million and $7.4 million, respectively. Rent expense associated with operating leases for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 was $1.9 million and $5.5 million, respectively. Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of our operating lease liabilities was $2.7 million and $7.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively.

Because no implicit discount rates for our leases could be readily determined, the Company elected to use an estimated incremental borrowing rate to determine the present value of our leases. The weighted average discount rate related to our portfolio of leases at September 30, 2019 was 4.1%. The average remaining lease term for our leases was 2.8 years as of September 30, 2019.

The undiscounted cash flows for the future annual maturities of our operating lease liabilities and the reconciliation of those total undiscounted cash flows to our lease liabilities as of September 30, 2019 were as follows:

2019	$	2,526
2020		9,570
2021		6,397
2022		5,314
2023		3,666
Thereafter		1,382
Total undiscounted cash flows	$	28,855
Present value discount		(2,027	)
Lease liabilities	$	26,828

The table above does not include any legally binding minimum lease payments for leases signed but not yet commenced. As of September 30, 2019, the present value of the operating lease liabilities that had not yet commenced was $5.0 million.

7.	LONG-TERM DEBT, NET

Long-term debt consisted of the following:

	September 30, 2019			December 31, 2018
Net term note to bank due September 7, 2025	$	33,068		$	34,389
Total long-term debt, net (including current portion)		33,068			34,389
Less: Current portion		(1,775	)		(1,775	)
Total long-term debt, net	$	31,293		$	32,614

On December 7, 2017, we entered into a senior secured term credit agreement (as amended from time to time, the “Term Credit Agreement”), pursuant to which JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., Bank of America, N.A. and Kirkpatrick Bank made certain term loans to us (the “Term Loans”). Our obligations under the Term Loans are secured by a mortgage and first priority security interest in our headquarters property. The Term Loans mature on September 7, 2025 and bear interest, at our option, at either (a) a prime rate plus 1.0% or (b) an adjusted LIBOR rate for the interest period in effect for such Term Loan plus 1.5%. As of September 30, 2019, our indebtedness of $31.3 million consisted solely of Term Loans made under the Term Credit Agreement. Unamortized debt issuance costs of $0.2 million as of both September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 are presented as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the debt liability.

Under the Term Credit Agreement, we are subject to two material financial covenants, which require us to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.25 to 1.0 and a funded indebtedness to EBITDA ratio of not greater than 2.0 to 1.0. As of September 30, 2019, we were in compliance with these covenants.

On February 12, 2018, we entered into a senior secured revolving credit agreement (the “Revolving Credit Agreement”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and Bank of America, N.A. that provided for a senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Facility”) in the aggregate principal amount of $50.0 million (the “Revolving Commitment”), which could be increased to up to $100.0 million, subject to obtaining additional lender commitments and certain approvals and satisfying certain other conditions. The Facility includes a $5.0 million sublimit for swingline loans and a $2.5 million sublimit for letters of credit. The Facility was scheduled to mature on February 12, 2020. On April 15, 2019, we entered into the First Amendment to Revolving Credit Agreement (the “First Amendment”). Pursuant to the First Amendment, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., was added as a lender and the Revolving Commitment was increased to $75.0 million, which may be further increased to $125.0 million subject to obtaining additional lender commitments and certain approvals and satisfying other conditions. The scheduled maturity date of the Facility was extended to April 15, 2022.

Borrowings under the Facility will generally bear interest at a prime rate plus 1.0% or, at our option, an adjusted LIBOR rate for the interest period in effect for such borrowing plus 1.5%. The proceeds of the loans and letters of credit under the Facility are to be used only for our general business purposes and working capital. Letters of credit are to be issued only to support our business operations. As of September 30, 2019, we did not have any borrowings outstanding under the Facility.

Under the Revolving Credit Agreement, we are required to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.25 to 1.0 and a funded indebtedness to EBITDA ratio of not greater than 2.0 to 1.0. Additionally, the Revolving Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, including covenants limiting our ability to, among other things, grant liens, incur debt, effect certain mergers, make certain investments, dispose of assets, enter into certain transactions, including swap agreements and sale and leaseback transactions, pay dividends or distributions on our capital stock, and enter into transactions with affiliates, in each case subject to customary exceptions for a facility of the size and type of the Facility. As of September 30, 2019, we were in compliance with all covenants related to the Revolving Credit Agreement.

As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the carrying value of our total long-term debt approximated its fair value as of such date. The fair value of our long-term debt is estimated based on the borrowing rates currently available to us for bank loans with similar terms and maturities.

8.	DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

In December 2017, we entered into a floating-to-fixed interest rate swap agreement to limit the exposure to floating interest rate risk related to the Term Loans. We do not hold derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes. The interest rate swap agreement effectively converts a portion of the variable interest rate payments to fixed interest rate payments. We account for our derivatives under ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging,” and recognize all derivative instruments in the consolidated balance sheets at fair value as either short-term or long-term assets or liabilities based on their anticipated settlement date. See Note 9, “Fair Value of Financial Instruments”. We have elected not to designate our interest rate swap as a hedge; therefore, changes in the fair value of the derivative instrument are recognized in our consolidated statements of income within Other income (expense), net.

The objective of the interest rate swap is to reduce the variability in the forecasted interest payments of the Term Loans, which is based on a one-month LIBOR rate versus a fixed interest rate of 2.54% on a notional value of $35.5 million. Under the terms of the interest rate swap agreement, we will receive quarterly variable interest payments based on the LIBOR rate and will pay interest at a fixed rate. The interest rate swap agreement has a maturity date of September 7, 2025. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, we recorded a loss of $0.4 million and $1.8 million, respectively, for the change in fair value of the interest rate swap. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, we recognized a gain of $0.3 million and $1.4 million, respectively, for the change in fair value of the interest rate swap.

9.	FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Our financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, funds held for clients, client funds obligation and long-term debt. The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, funds held for clients and client funds obligation approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of the instruments. See Note 7 for discussion of the fair value of our debt.

As discussed in Note 2, we invest the funds held for clients in money market funds, demand deposit accounts, commercial paper with a maturity duration less than three months and certificates of deposit, and classify as cash and cash equivalents within the funds held for clients line item in the consolidated balance sheets. Short-term investments in commercial paper and certificates of deposit with an original maturity duration greater than three months are classified as available-for-sale securities, and are also included within the funds held for clients line item. These available-for-sale securities are recognized in the consolidated balance sheets at fair value, which approximates the amortized cost of the securities. As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, all available-for-sale securities and certificates of deposit were due in one year or less.

As discussed in Note 8, during the year ended December 31, 2017, we entered into an interest rate swap. The interest rate swap is measured on a recurring basis based on quoted prices for similar financial instruments and other observable inputs recognized at fair value.

The accounting standard for fair value measurements establishes a three-level fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

•

Level 1 – Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets

•

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that are observable either directly or indirectly or quoted prices that are not active

•

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data

Included in the following tables are the Company’s major categories of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018:

10.	EMPLOYEE SAVINGS PLAN AND EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN

Employees over the age of 18 who have completed ninety days of service are eligible to participate in our 401(k) plan. We have made a Qualified Automatic Contribution Arrangement (“QACA”) election, whereby the Company matches the contribution of our employees equal to 100% of the first 1% of salary deferrals and 50% of salary deferrals between 2% and 6%, up to a maximum matching contribution of 3.5% of an employee’s salary each plan year. We are allowed to make additional discretionary matching contributions and discretionary profit sharing contributions. Employees are 100% vested in amounts attributable to salary deferrals and rollover contributions. The QACA matching contributions as well as the discretionary matching and profit sharing contributions vest 100% after two years of employment from the date of hire. Matching contributions were $1.5 million and $4.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively. Matching contributions were $1.2 million and $3.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively.

The ESPP has overlapping offering periods, with each offering period lasting approximately 24 months. At the beginning of each offering period, eligible employees may elect to contribute, through payroll deductions, up to 10% of their compensation, subject to an annual per-employee maximum of $25,000. Eligible employees purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at a price equal to 85% of the fair market value of the shares on the exercise date. The maximum number of shares that may be purchased by a participant during each offering period is 2,000 shares, subject to limits specified by the Internal Revenue Service. The shares reserved for purposes of the ESPP are shares we purchase in the open market. The maximum aggregate number of shares of the Company’s common stock that may be purchased by all participants under the ESPP is 2.0 million shares. Eligible employees purchased 39,137 and 46,508 shares of the Company’s common stock under the ESPP during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Compensation expense related to the ESPP is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. Our compensation expense related to the ESPP was $0.4 million and $1.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively. Our compensation expense related to the ESPP was $0.4 million and $0.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively.

11.	EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed in a similar manner to basic earnings per share after assuming the issuance of shares of common stock for all potentially dilutive shares of restricted stock whether or not they are vested.

In accordance with ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share,” the two-class method determines earnings for each class of common stock and participating securities according to an earnings allocation formula that adjusts the income available to common stockholders for dividends or dividend equivalents and participation rights in undistributed earnings. Certain unvested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents are participating securities and, therefore, are included in computing earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method. The unvested shares of restricted stock granted in 2015 are considered participating securities, while all other unvested shares of restricted stock are not considered participating securities.

In January 2019, we issued an aggregate of 520,069 restricted shares of common stock to our executive officers, certain non-executive, non-sales employees and non-executive sales management employees under the Paycom Software, Inc. 2014 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “LTIP”), consisting of 280,960 shares subject to market-based vesting conditions (“Market-Based Shares”) and 239,109 shares subject to time-based vesting conditions (“Time-Based Shares”). Market-Based Shares vested 50% on the first date that the Company’s total enterprise value (“TEV”) (calculated as defined in the applicable restricted stock award agreement) equaled or exceeded $8.65 billion and 50% on the first date that the Company’s TEV equaled or exceeded $9.35 billion, in each case provided that (i) such date occurred on or before the sixth anniversary of the grant date and (ii) the recipient was employed by, or providing services to, the Company on the applicable vesting date. As shown in the table below, all Market-Based Shares issued in January 2019 have vested.

On April 23, 2019, we issued an aggregate of 65,255 restricted shares of common stock to certain non-executive employees under the LTIP consisting of Time-Based Shares that will vest in either three or four equal tranches annually, generally beginning on the first anniversary of the grant date, provided that the recipient is employed by, or providing services to, the Company on the applicable vesting date.

On April 29, 2019, we issued an aggregate of 6,816 restricted shares of common stock under the LTIP to the non-employee members of our Board of Directors. Such shares of restricted stock will cliff-vest on the seventh day following the first anniversary of the date of grant, provided that such director is providing services to the Company through the applicable vesting date.

In May 2019, we issued an aggregate of 26,000 restricted shares of common stock to certain non-executive employees under the LTIP consisting of Time-Based Shares that will vest over periods ranging from two to four years, provided that the recipient is employed by, or providing services to, the Company on the applicable vesting date.

Time-Based Shares granted to certain non-executive employees in January 2019 will vest 25% on a specified initial vesting date and 25% on each of the first three anniversaries of such initial vesting date, provided that the recipient is employed by, or providing services to, the Company or a subsidiary on the applicable vesting date. Time-Based Shares granted to executive officers, sales management employees and certain non-executive employees will generally vest over periods ranging from two to four years beginning on a specified initial vesting date and thereafter on the anniversaries of such date, provided that the executive officer or employee is employed by, or providing services to, the Company on the applicable vesting date.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, our total compensation expense related to restricted stock was $4.5 million and $41.1 million, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, our total compensation expense related to restricted stock was $4.5 million and $31.5 million, respectively. There was $62.6 million of unrecognized compensation cost, net of estimated forfeitures, related to unvested shares of restricted stock outstanding as of September 30, 2019. The unrecognized compensation cost for the unvested shares is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.4 years as of September 30, 2019.

We capitalized stock-based compensation costs related to software developed for internal use of $0.3 million and $4.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively. We capitalized stock-based compensation costs related to software developed for internal use of $0.4 million and $3.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively.

13.	COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal Proceedings

We are involved in various legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business. Although we cannot predict the outcome of these proceedings, legal matters are subject to inherent uncertainties and there exists the possibility that the ultimate resolution of these matters could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

14.	INCOME TAXES

The Company’s effective income tax rate was 18.0% and 20.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The lower effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 is primarily related to an increase in excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation related to vesting events.

Overview

We are a leading provider of comprehensive, cloud-based human capital management (“HCM”) software delivered as Software-as-a-Service. We provide functionality and data analytics that businesses need to manage the complete employment lifecycle, from recruitment to retirement. Our solution requires virtually no customization and is based on a core system of record maintained in a single database for all HCM functions, including talent acquisition, time and labor management, payroll, talent management and human resources management applications. Our user-friendly software allows for easy adoption of our solution by employees, enabling self-management of their HCM activities in the cloud, which reduces the administrative burden on employers and increases employee productivity.

We generate revenues from (i) fixed amounts charged per billing period plus a fee per employee or transaction processed and (ii) fixed amounts charged per billing period. We do not require clients to enter into long-term contractual commitments with us. Our billing period varies by client based on when each client pays its employees, which is either weekly, bi-weekly, semi-monthly or monthly. We serve a diverse client base in terms of size and industry. None of our clients constituted more than one-half of one percent of our revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Our revenues are primarily generated through our sales force that solicits new clients and our client relations representatives who sell new applications to existing clients.

Our continued growth depends on the introduction of new applications to our existing client base while targeting a high degree of client employee usage across those applications, attracting new clients through further penetration of our existing markets and geographic expansion into new markets. On July 30, 2019, we announced the opening of our new sales office in New Orleans, Louisiana. We plan to open additional sales offices in the future to further expand our presence in the U.S. market. Our principal marketing efforts include email campaigns, social and digital media, search engine marketing methods, tradeshows and outbound marketing including television and print advertising. In addition, we generate leads and build recognition of our brand and thought leadership with relevant and informative content, such as white papers, blogs, podcast episodes and webinars.

Growth Outlook, Opportunities and Challenges

As a result of our significant revenue growth and geographic expansion since our initial public offering in April 2014, we are presented with a variety of opportunities and challenges. Our payroll application is the foundation of our solution and all of our clients are required to utilize this application in order to access our other applications. Consequently, we have historically generated the majority of our revenues from our payroll applications, although our revenue mix has evolved and will continue to evolve as we develop and add new non-payroll applications to our solution. We believe our strategy of focusing on increased employee usage is key to long-term client satisfaction and client retention. Client adoption of new applications and client employee usage of both new and existing applications have been significant factors in our revenue growth, and we expect the continuation of this trajectory will depend, in part, on the introduction of applications to our existing client base that encourage and promote more employee usage. Moreover, in order to increase revenues and continue to improve our operating results, we must also attract new clients.

Our target client size range is 50 to 5,000 employees. While we continue to serve a diversified client base ranging in size from one employee to many thousands of employees, the average size of our clients has grown significantly as we have organically grown our operations, increased the number of applications we offer and gained traction with larger companies. We believe larger employers represent a substantial opportunity to increase the number of potential clients and to increase our revenues per client, with limited incremental cost to us. Because we charge our clients on a per-employee basis for certain services we provide, any increase or decrease in the number of employees of our clients will have a positive or negative impact, respectively, on our results of operations. We expect that changes in certain factors affecting our performance will correlate with improvement or deterioration in the labor market.

We collect funds from clients in advance of either the applicable due date for payroll tax submissions or the applicable disbursement date for employee payment services. Those collections from clients are typically disbursed from one to 30 days after receipt, with some funds being held for up to 120 days. We typically invest funds held for clients in money market funds, demand deposit accounts, commercial paper and certificates of deposit until they are paid to the applicable tax or regulatory agencies or to client employees. We expect interest earned on funds held for clients will increase as we introduce new applications, expand our client base and renew and expand relationships with existing clients; however, the amount of interest we earn can be positively or negatively impacted by changes in interest rates.

Growing our business has resulted in, and will continue to result in, substantial investments in sales professionals, operating expenses, system development and programming costs and general and administrative expenses, which have and will continue to increase our expenses. Specifically, our revenue growth and geographic expansion drive increases in our employee headcount, which in turn precipitates increases in (i) salaries and benefits, (ii) stock-based compensation expense and (iii) facility costs related to the expansion of our corporate headquarters and operations facilities and additional sales office leases. In April 2019, we commenced construction of a new, expanded operations facility in Grapevine, Texas. On August 5, 2019, we purchased 107.5 acres of land adjacent to our corporate headquarters in Oklahoma City for $19.2 million. While there are no immediate plans for development, we expect a portion of this land will be utilized to facilitate our growth in the future.

Our revenues are seasonal in nature. Recurring revenues include revenues relating to the annual processing of payroll forms, such as Form W-2, Form 1099, and Form 1095, and revenues from processing unscheduled payroll runs (such as bonuses) for our clients. Because payroll forms are typically processed in the first quarter of the year, first quarter revenues and margins are generally higher than in subsequent quarters. These seasonal fluctuations in revenues can also have an impact on gross profits. Historical results impacted by these seasonal trends should not be considered a reliable indicator of our future results of operations. For the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, our total gross margins were approximately 85% and 83%, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, our total gross margins were 85% and 84%, respectively. Although our gross margins may fluctuate from quarter to quarter due to seasonality and hiring trends, we expect that our gross margins will remain relatively consistent in future periods.

The increase in total revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same periods in 2018 was primarily the result of (i) the addition of new clients and productivity and efficiency gains in mature sales offices, which are offices that have been open for at least 24 months, (ii) contributions from new sales offices opened in 2018 that are progressing to maturity, (iii) the sale of additional applications to our existing clients and (iv) higher average interest rates earned on increased balances of funds held for clients. In addition, the strong performance of our tax forms filing business in the first quarter contributed to the increase in total revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018.

The increase in implementation and other revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 from the same periods in 2018 was primarily the result of the recognition of additional non-refundable conversion fees that are charged to new clients. These fees are deferred and recognized ratably over the ten-year estimated life of our clients.

Expenses

Cost of Revenues

During the three months ended September 30, 2019, cost of revenues increased from the comparable prior year period by $4.3 million primarily due to an increase in operating expenses resulting from a $2.4 million increase in expenses attributable to growth in the number of operating personnel and a $0.4 million increase in shipping and automated clearing house fees related to the increase in revenues. Additionally, depreciation and amortization expense increased $1.3 million, or 34%, primarily due to the development of additional technology and purchases of other related fixed assets.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, cost of revenues increased from the comparable prior year period $14.3 million primarily due to an increase in operating expenses resulting from a $6.2 million increase in expenses attributable to growth in the number of operating personnel and a $3.3 million increase in shipping and automated clearing house fees related to the increase in revenues. Additionally, depreciation and amortization expense increased $4.5 million, or 44%, primarily due to the development of additional technology and purchases of other related fixed assets.

Administrative Expenses

Sales and Marketing

During the three months ended September 30, 2019, sales and marketing expenses increased from the comparable prior year period by $9.9 million due to a $4.9 million increase in employee-related expenses, including commissions, bonuses and non-cash stock-based compensation, and a $5.0 million increase in marketing and advertising expense. The increase in employee-related expenses was partially offset by a $1.6 million decrease in non-cash stock-based compensation expense.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, sales and marketing expenses increased from the comparable prior year period by $27.1 million due to a $19.6 million increase in employee-related expenses, including commissions, bonuses and non-cash stock-based compensation, and a $7.5 million increase in marketing and advertising expense. The increase in employee-related expenses included a $0.1 million increase in non-cash stock-based compensation expense.

Research and Development

During the three months ended September 30, 2019, research and development expenses increased from the comparable prior year period due to an $8.1 million increase in employee-related expenses, including a $1.3 million increase in non-cash stock-based compensation expense. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, research and development expenses increased from the comparable prior year period due to a $21.4 million increase in employee-related expenses, including a $2.4 million increase in non-cash stock-based compensation expense.

As we continue the ongoing development of our platform and product offerings, we generally expect research and development expenses (exclusive of stock-based compensation) to continue to increase, particularly as we hire more personnel to support our growth. While we expect this trend to continue on an absolute dollar basis and as a percentage of total revenues, we also anticipate the rate of increase to decline over time as we leverage our growth and realize additional economies of scale. As is customary for our business, we also expect fluctuations in research and development expense as a percentage of revenue on a quarter-to-quarter basis due to seasonal revenue trends, the introduction of new products, the amount and timing of research and development costs that may be capitalized and the timing of onboarding new hires and restricted stock vesting events.

Expenditures for software developed or obtained for internal use are capitalized and amortized over a three-year period on a straight-line basis. The nature of the development projects underway during a particular period directly impacts the timing and extent of these capitalized expenditures and can affect the amount of research and development expenses in such period. The table below sets forth the amounts of capitalized and expensed research and development costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018:

	Three Months Ended September 30,					Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2019		2018		% Change	2019		2018		% Change

Capitalized portion of research and development	$	7,089	$	5,211	36%	$	22,726	$	16,419	38%
Expensed portion of research and development		19,605		11,526	70%		54,869		33,507	64%
Total research and development costs	$	26,694	$	16,737	59%	$	77,595	$	49,926	55%

General and Administrative

During the three months ended September 30, 2019, general and administrative expenses increased $3.7 million from the comparable prior year period primarily due to an increase in employee-related expenses, which was partially offset by a $0.2 million decrease in non-cash stock-based compensation expense.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, general and administrative expenses increased $24.7 million from the comparable prior year period primarily due to an increase in employee-related expenses, which included a $6.8 million increase in non-cash stock-based compensation expense.

Non-Cash Stock-Based Compensation Expense

The following table presents the non-cash stock-based compensation expense that is included within the specified line items in our consolidated statements of income:

	Three Months Ended September 30,					Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2019		2018		% Change	2019		2018		% Change
Non-cash stock-based compensation expense
Operating expenses	$	750	$	332	126%	$	3,955	$	3,591	10%
Sales and marketing		344		1,976	-83%		5,453		5,332	2%
Research and development		1,586		248	540%		5,137		2,762	86%
General and administrative		1,774		1,953	-9%		26,577		19,800	34%
Total non-cash stock-based compensation expense	$	4,454	$	4,509		$	41,122	$	31,485

During the three months ended September 30, 2019, our non-cash stock-based compensation expense decreased $0.1 million from the comparable prior year period. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, our non-cash stock-based compensation expense increased $9.6 million from the comparable prior year period primarily due to the issuance and subsequent accelerated vesting of restricted stock subject to market-based vesting conditions during the first quarter of 2019, which exceeded expenses associated with the accelerated vesting of restricted stock subject to market-based vesting conditions in 2018.

Depreciation and Amortization

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, depreciation and amortization expense increased from the comparable prior year periods primarily due to the development of additional technology and purchases of other related fixed assets.

Interest Expense

The changes in interest expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 were due to the amount of capitalized interest related to the timing of our construction projects with our expanded operations facility in Grapevine, Texas and our fourth headquarters building.

Other Income (Expense), net

The decrease in other income, net for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 was primarily due to the decrease in the fair value of our interest rate swap as compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Provision for Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes is based on a current estimate of the annual effective income tax rate adjusted to reflect the impact of discrete items. Significant management judgment is required in estimating operating income in order to determine our effective income tax rate. The lower effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 is primarily related to an increase of excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation related to vesting events.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal sources of capital and liquidity are our operating cash flow and cash and cash equivalents. Additionally, we maintain a senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Facility”), which can be accessed as needed to supplement our operating cash flow and cash balances. The Facility provides us the ability to borrow funds in the aggregate principal amount of $75.0 million, which may be increased up to $125.0 million, subject to obtaining additional lender commitments and certain approvals and satisfying certain other conditions. We believe our existing cash and cash equivalents and cash generated from operations will be sufficient to meet our working capital and capital expenditure needs over at least the next 12 months.

We have historically funded our operations from cash flows generated from operations, cash from the sale of equity securities and debt financing. Although we have funded most of the costs for ongoing construction projects at our corporate headquarters from available cash, we have incurred indebtedness for a portion of these costs. Further, all purchases under our stock repurchase plans were paid for from available cash.

Term Credit Agreement. On December 7, 2017, we entered into a senior secured term credit agreement (as amended from time to time, the “Term Credit Agreement”) pursuant to which JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A, Bank of America, N.A. and Kirkpatrick Bank made certain term loans to us (the “Term Loans”). Our obligations under the Term Loans are secured by a mortgage and first priority security interest in our headquarters property. The Term Loans mature on September 7, 2025 and bear interest, at our option, at either (a) a prime rate plus 1.0% or (b) an adjusted LIBOR rate for the interest period in effect for such Term Loan plus 1.5%. As of September 30, 2019, our indebtedness consisted solely of Term Loans made under the Term Credit Agreement.

Under the Term Credit Agreement, we are required to comply with certain financial and non-financial covenants, including maintaining a fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.25 to 1.0 and a funded indebtedness to EBITDA ratio of not greater than 2.0 to 1.0. Additionally, the Term Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, including covenants limiting our ability to, among other things, grant liens, incur debt, effect certain mergers, make investments, dispose of assets, enter into certain transactions including swap agreements and sale and leaseback transactions, pay dividends or distributions on our capital stock, and enter into transactions with affiliates, in each case subject to customary exceptions for a credit agreement of this size and type. As of September 30, 2019, we were in compliance with all covenants set forth in the Term Credit Agreement.

Interest Rate Swap Agreement. In connection with entering into the Term Credit Agreement, we also entered into a floating-to-fixed interest rate swap agreement to limit the exposure to interest rate risk related to the Term Loans (the “Interest Rate Swap Agreement”). The Interest Rate Swap Agreement, which has a maturity date of September 7, 2025, provides that we will receive quarterly variable interest payments based on the LIBOR rate and will pay interest at a fixed rate. We have elected not to designate this interest rate swap as a hedge and, as such, changes in the fair value of the derivative instrument are recognized in our consolidated statements of income. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, we recognized a loss of $0.4 million and $1.8 million, respectively, for the change in fair value of the interest rate swap, which is included in Other income, net in the consolidated statements of income.

Revolving Credit Agreement. On February 12, 2018, we entered into a senior secured revolving credit agreement (the “Revolving Credit Agreement”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and Bank of America, N.A. that provided for the Facility in the aggregate principal amount of $50.0 million (the “Revolving Commitment”), which could be increased to up to $100.0 million, subject to obtaining additional lender commitments and certain approvals and satisfying certain other conditions. The Facility includes a $5.0 million sublimit for swingline loans and a $2.5 million sublimit for letters of credit. The Facility was scheduled to mature on February 12, 2020. On April 15, 2019, we entered into the First Amendment to Revolving Credit Agreement (the “First Amendment”). Pursuant to First Amendment, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. was added as a lender and the Revolving Commitment was increased to $75.0 million, which may be further increased to $125.0 million subject to obtaining additional lender commitments and certain approvals and satisfying other conditions and the scheduled maturity date of the Facility was extended to April 15, 2022.

Stock Repurchase Plan. In May 2016, our Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase plan allowing for the repurchase of shares of our common stock in open market transactions at prevailing market prices, in privately negotiated transactions or by other means in accordance with federal securities laws, including Rule 10b5-1 programs. Since the initial authorization of the stock repurchase plan, our Board of Directors has amended and extended the stock repurchase plan from time to time. On February 13, 2018, we announced that our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to an additional $100.0 million of common stock. Most recently, on November 20, 2018, we announced that our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to an additional $150.0 million of our common stock. Our stock repurchase plan may be suspended or discontinued at any time. The actual timing, number and value of shares repurchased depends on a number of factors, including the market price of our common stock, general market and economic conditions, the shares withheld for taxes associated with the vesting of restricted stock and other corporate considerations.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we repurchased an aggregate of 218,446 shares of common stock for an aggregate cost of $42.2 million to satisfy tax withholding obligations for certain employees upon the vesting of restricted stock, as discussed below. As of September 30, 2019, there was $119.7 million available for repurchases. The stock repurchase plan will expire on November 19, 2020.

Withholding Shares to Cover Taxes. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we withheld 218,446 shares to satisfy tax withholding obligations with respect to the delivery of vested shares of restricted stock to certain employees. Our payment of the taxes on behalf of those employees resulted in a cash expenditure of $42.2 million and, as such, we generally subtract the amounts attributable to such withheld shares from the aggregate amount available for future purchases under our stock repurchase plan.

Cash Flow Analysis

Our cash flows from operating activities have historically been significantly impacted by profitability, implementation revenues received but deferred, our investment in sales and marketing to drive growth, and research and development. Our ability to meet future liquidity needs will be driven by our operating performance and the extent of continued investment in our operations. Failure to generate sufficient revenues and related cash flows could have a material adverse effect on our ability to meet our liquidity needs and achieve our business objectives.

As our business grows, we expect our capital expenditures and our investment activity to continue to increase. We are currently focused on the ongoing construction of our new Texas operations facility in Grapevine, Texas. Capital expenditures related to the construction of the facility began in the second quarter of 2019. Depending on certain growth opportunities, we may choose to

accelerate investments in sales and marketing, acquisitions, technology and services. Actual future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including our future revenues, cash from operating activities and the level of expenditures in all areas of our business.

As part of our payroll and payroll tax filing services, we collect funds from our clients for federal, state and local employment taxes, which we remit to the appropriate tax agencies. We invest these funds in money market funds, demand deposit accounts, commercial paper and certificates of deposit from which we earn interest income during the period between their receipt and disbursement.

Our cash flows from investing and financing activities are influenced by the amount of funds held for clients, which can vary significantly from quarter to quarter. The balance of the funds we hold depends on our clients’ payroll calendars, and therefore such balance changes from period to period in accordance with the timing of each payroll cycle.

Our cash flows from financing activities are also affected by the extent to which we use available cash to purchase shares of common stock under our stock repurchase plan as well as restricted stock vesting events that result in net share settlements and the Company paying withholding taxes on behalf of certain employees.

The following table summarizes the consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018:

	Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2019			2018			Change %
Net cash provided by (used in):
Operating activities	$	176,419		$	145,849		21%
Investing activities		(78,148	)		(86,378	)	-10%
Financing activities		(175,445	)		(249,928	)	-30%
Change in cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents	$	(77,174	)	$	(190,457	)	-59%

Operating Activities

Cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 primarily consisted of payments received from our clients and interest earned on funds held for clients. Cash used in operating activities primarily consisted of personnel-related expenditures to support the growth and infrastructure of our business. These payments included costs of operations, advertising and other sales and marketing efforts, IT infrastructure development, product research and development and security and administrative costs. Compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018, our operating cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 were positively impacted by the growth of our business.

Investing Activities

Cash flows used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 decreased from the comparable prior year period due to a $76.3 million decrease in purchases of short-term investments from funds held for clients. The decrease in investing activities was partially offset by a $41.3 million decrease in proceeds from maturities of short-term investments from funds held for clients and a $26.8 million increase in cash used for purchases of property and equipment, which was primarily related to the land purchase related to our corporate headquarters expansion.

Financing Activities

Cash flows from financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 decreased from the comparable prior year period primarily due to the impact of $54.6 million of changes in client funds obligation, which is due to the timing of receipts from our clients and payments made to our clients’ employees and applicable taxing authorities on their behalf. Additionally, cash flows from financing activities were positively impacted by a $42.9 million decrease in repurchases of common stock and a less than $0.1 million decrease in the payment of debt issuance costs. These cash flows provided by financing activities were partially offset by a $22.1 million increase in withholding taxes paid related to net share settlements and a $0.9 million increase in payments on long-term debt.

Contractual Obligations

Our principal commitments primarily consist of long-term debt and leases for office space. There have been no material changes to our contractual obligations disclosed in the contractual obligations section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the Form 10-K. For additional information regarding our leases, long-term debt and our commitments and contingencies, see “Note 5. Long-Term Debt, Net” and “Note 12. Commitments and Contingencies” in the Form

10-K and “Note 6. Leases”, Note 7. Long-Term Debt, Net” and “Note 13. Commitments and Contingencies” in the notes to our unaudited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of September 30, 2019, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that had or were reasonably likely to have an effect on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that may be material to investors.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, costs and expenses, and related disclosures. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions to ensure that management believes them to be reasonable under the then-current facts and circumstances. Actual amounts and results may materially differ from these estimates made by management under different assumptions and conditions.

Certain accounting policies that require significant management estimates, and are deemed critical to our results of operations or financial position, are discussed in the critical accounting policies and estimates section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the Form 10-K. There have been no material changes to the critical accounting policies disclosed in the Form 10-K.

Adoption of Accounting Pronouncements

Discussion of our adoption of ASU 2016-02 and ASU 2016-18 can be found in Note 2 and Note 6 in “Part I, Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” in this Form 10-Q.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Management uses adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net income as supplemental measures to review and assess the performance of our core business operations and for planning purposes. We define (i) adjusted EBITDA as net income plus interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization, non-cash stock-based compensation expense, certain transaction expenses that are not core to our operations (if any) and the change in fair value of our interest rate swap and (ii) non-GAAP net income as net income plus non-cash stock-based compensation expense, certain transaction expenses that are not core to our operations (if any) and the change in fair value of our interest rate swap, all of which are adjusted for the effect of income taxes. Adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net income are metrics that provide investors with greater transparency to the information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making. We believe these metrics are useful to investors because they facilitate comparisons of our core business operations across periods on a consistent basis, as well as comparisons with the results of peer companies, many of which use similar non-GAAP financial measures to supplement results under U.S. GAAP. In addition, adjusted EBITDA is a measure that provides useful information to management about the amount of cash available for reinvestment in our business, repurchasing common stock and other purposes. Management believes that the non-GAAP measures presented in this Form 10-Q, when viewed in combination with our results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, provide a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting our business and performance.

Adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net income are not measures of financial performance under U.S. GAAP, and should not be considered a substitute for net income, which we consider to be the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure. Adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net income have limitations as analytical tools, and when assessing our operating performance, you should not consider adjusted EBITDA or non-GAAP net income in isolation, or as a substitute for net income or other consolidated statements of income data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net income may not be comparable to similar titled measures of other companies and other companies may not calculate such measures in the same manner as we do.

The following tables reconcile net income to adjusted EBITDA, net income to non-GAAP net income and earnings per share to non-GAAP net income per share on a basic and diluted basis:

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest Rate Sensitivity

We had cash and cash equivalents totaling $108.1 million as of September 30, 2019. These amounts are invested primarily in demand deposit accounts and money market funds. We consider all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less and SEC-registered money market mutual funds to be cash equivalents. The primary objectives of our investing activities are capital preservation, meeting our liquidity needs and, with respect to investing client funds, generating interest income while maintaining the safety of principal. We do not enter into investments for trading or speculative purposes.

Our cash equivalents are subject to market risk due to changes in interest rates. The market value of fixed rate securities may be adversely affected due to a rise in interest rates, while floating rate securities may produce less income than expected if interest rates fall. Due in part to these factors, our future investment income may fall short of expectations due to changes in interest rates, or we may suffer losses in principal if we are forced to sell securities that decline in market value due to changes in interest rates.

As of September 30, 2019, an increase or decrease in interest rates of 100-basis points would not have had a material effect on our operating results or financial condition.

As described elsewhere in this Form 10-Q, the Term Loans made under the Term Credit Agreement bear interest, at our option, at either (a) a prime rate plus 1.0% or (b) an adjusted LIBOR rate for the interest period in effect for such Term Loan plus 1.5%. As a result, we are exposed to increased interest rate risk. To mitigate the increased interest rate risk, we entered into the Interest Rate Swap Agreement. The Interest Rate Swap Agreement has effectively fixed our interest rate at 4.0%, eliminating a portion of the variable rate and coinciding interest rate risk associated with the Term Loans.

As described elsewhere in this Form 10-Q, the Revolving Credit Agreement, as amended, provides for a Facility in the aggregate amount of $75.0 million, which may be increased to up to $125.0 million. Borrowings under the Facility will generally bear interest at a prime rate plus 1.0% or, at our option, an adjusted LIBOR rate for the interest period in effect for such borrowing plus 1.5%. As of September 30, 2019, we have not made any draws under the Facility. To the extent we make draws under the Facility in the future, we may be exposed to increased interest rate risk.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) and Rule 15d-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated, as of September 30, 2019, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2019 to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in this Form 10-Q is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the rules and forms of the Exchange Act and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

We believe, however, that a controls system, no matter how well designed and operated, can only provide reasonable assurance that the objectives of the controls systems are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud or error, if any, within a company have been detected.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no material changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2019 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes from the information set forth in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in the Form 10-K.

Privacy concerns and laws or other regulations may reduce the effectiveness of our applications.

Our applications are subject to various complex laws and regulations on the federal, state and local levels, including those governing data security and privacy, which have become significant issues globally. The regulatory framework for privacy issues is rapidly evolving and is likely to remain uncertain for the foreseeable future. Many federal, state and foreign government bodies and agencies have adopted or are considering adopting laws and regulations regarding the collection, use and disclosure of personal information. In the United States, these include rules and regulations promulgated under the authority of the Federal Trade Commission, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, the Family Medical Leave Act of 1993, the Affordable Care Act, federal and state labor and employment laws, state data breach notification laws and state privacy laws, such as the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (the “CCPA”) and the Illinois Biometric Information Privacy Act (the “IBIPA”). The CCPA provides consumers with a private right of action if covered companies suffer a data breach related to their failure to implement reasonable security measures, and the IBIPA includes a private right of action for persons who are aggrieved by violations of the IBIPA. Further, because some of our clients have establishments in the European Union, the E.U. General Data Protection Regulation, or GDPR, may impact our processing of certain client and employee information. Failure to comply with data protection and privacy laws and regulations could result in regulatory scrutiny and increased exposure to the risk of litigation or the imposition of consent orders or civil and criminal penalties, including fines, which could have an adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition. Moreover, allegations of non-compliance, whether or not true, could be costly, time consuming, distracting to management, and cause reputational harm. For example, on March 11, 2019, two former employees of one of our clients, individually and on behalf of others similarly situated, filed a complaint against our client and us in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois County Department, Chancery Division, alleging that we and our client violated the IBIPA in connection with the alleged collection, storage and use of information taken by biometric time clocks that we lease to the client. The original complaint was dismissed for failure to plead adequate facts to establish personal jurisdiction. On October 8, 2019, the plaintiffs’ amended complaint was dismissed. Plaintiff’s filed their Third Amended Complaint on October 22, 2019. While we believe the lawsuit is without merit and intend to defend it vigorously, even if we are ultimately successful in our defense, we will need to spend money, time and attention to defend against the complaint.

In addition to government regulation, privacy advocates and industry groups may propose new and different self-regulatory standards. Because the interpretation and application of privacy and data protection laws are still uncertain, it is possible that these laws may be interpreted and applied in a manner that is inconsistent with our existing data management practices or the features of our solution. Any failure to comply with government regulations that apply to our applications, including privacy and data protection laws, could subject us to liability. In addition to the possibility of fines, lawsuits and other claims, we could be required to fundamentally change our business activities and practices or modify our solution, which could have an adverse effect on our business, operating results or financial condition. Any inability to adequately address privacy concerns, even if unfounded, or comply with applicable privacy or data protection laws, regulations and policies, could result in additional cost and liability to us, damage our reputation, inhibit sales and adversely affect our business, operating results or financial condition.

Furthermore, privacy concerns may cause our clients’ employees to resist providing the personal data necessary to allow our clients and their employees to use our applications effectively. Even the perception of privacy concerns, whether or not valid, may inhibit market adoption of our applications in certain industries. All of these legislative and regulatory initiatives may adversely affect the ability of our clients to process, handle, store, use and transmit demographic and personal information from their employees, which could reduce demand for our solution.
