BRP GROUP, INC.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1. Business and Basis of Presentation
BRP Group, Inc. (“BRP Group” or the “Company”) was incorporated in the state of Delaware on July 1, 2019. BRP Group is a diversified insurance agency and services organization that markets and sells insurance products and services to its customers throughout the U.S. A significant portion of the Company’s business is concentrated in the Southeastern U.S. with several other regional concentrations. BRP Group and its subsidiaries operate through four Operating Groups, including Middle Market, Specialty, MainStreet and Medicare, which are discussed in more detail in Note 15.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of BRP Group and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
As the sole manager of Baldwin Risk Partners, LLC (“BRP”), BRP Group operates and controls all the business and affairs of BRP, and has the sole voting interest in, and controls the management of, BRP. Accordingly, BRP Group consolidates BRP in its consolidated financial statements, resulting in a noncontrolling interest related to the membership interests of BRP (the “LLC Units”) held by BRP’s LLC members in its consolidated financial statements.
The Company has prepared these condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 810, Consolidation (“Topic 810”). Topic 810 requires that if an enterprise is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity, the assets, liabilities, and results of operations of the variable interest entity should be included in the consolidated financial statements of the enterprise. The Company has recognized certain entities as variable interest entities of which the Company is the primary beneficiary and has included the accounts of these entities in the consolidated financial statements. Refer to Note 3 for additional information regarding the Company’s variable interest entities.
Topic 810 also requires that the equity of a noncontrolling interest shall be reported on the condensed consolidated balance sheets within total equity of the Company. Certain redeemable noncontrolling interests are reported on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as mezzanine equity. Topic 810 also requires revenues, expenses, gains, losses, net income or loss, and other comprehensive income or loss to be reported in the consolidated financial statements at consolidated amounts, which include amounts attributable to the owners of the parent and the noncontrolling interests.
Unaudited Interim Financial Reporting
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and related notes required by GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of recurring accruals, considered necessary for fair statement have been included. The accompanying balance sheet for the year ended December 31, 2021 was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. Accordingly, these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2021 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 1, 2022.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Significant estimates underlying the accompanying consolidated financial statements include the application of guidance for revenue recognition, including determination of allowances for estimated policy cancellations; the determination of fair value in relation to business combinations, purchase price allocation and valuation of intangible assets and contingent consideration; impairment of long-lived assets including goodwill; valuation of the Tax Receivable Agreement liability and income taxes; and share-based compensation.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In October 2021, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805)—Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2021-08”) to improve the accounting for acquired revenue contracts with customers in business combinations by addressing diversity in practice and inconsistency related to (i) the recognition of an acquired contract liability and (ii) payment terms and their effect on subsequent revenue recognized by the acquirer. ASU 2021-08 requires that, at acquisition date, an entity recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“Topic 606”) as if it had originated the contracts, while also taking into account how the acquiree applied Topic 606. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2022, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this standard will not have any impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition.
Adoption of the Lease Accounting Standard Under Topic 842
On December 31, 2021, the Company adopted ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (“Topic 842”) in connection with the loss of its emerging growth company status. Topic 842 was adopted effective January 1, 2021 (the “adoption date”) on a modified retrospective basis, under which the Company applied the new guidance to leases existing at, or entered into after, the adoption date. The Company revised its previously reported consolidated financial statements effective January 1, 2021 in its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 without filing amendments to its previously filed quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the same year. Accordingly, our prior period condensed consolidated financial statements and information, as presented herein, have been revised to conform to the standard.
The following table summarizes the effects of adopting Topic 842 on our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021:

2. Business Combinations
The Company completed three business combinations for an aggregate purchase price of $415.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2022. In accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations (“Topic 805”), total consideration was first allocated to the fair value of assets acquired, including liabilities assumed, with the excess being recorded as goodwill. For financial statement purposes, goodwill is not amortized but rather is evaluated for impairment at least annually or more frequently if an event or change in circumstances occurs that indicates goodwill may be impaired. For tax purposes, goodwill is deductible and will be amortized over a period of 15 years.
The Company completed the following business combinations during the nine months ended September 30, 2022:
The Company acquired all the equity interests of Westwood Insurance Agency (“Westwood”), a MainStreet Partner effective April 29, 2022, to enhance the Company’s expertise and capabilities in embedded, tech-enabled homeowners’ insurance solutions.
The Company acquired substantially all the assets and assumed certain liabilities of Venture Captive Management, LLC (“VCM”), a Specialty Partner effective June 3, 2022, to expand its capabilities into captive management and alternative risk funding solutions for Clients.
The Company acquired substantially all the assets and assumed certain liabilities of National Health Plans & Benefits Agency, LLC (“NHPBA”), a Medicare Partner effective August 1, 2022, to enhance the Company’s expertise and expand its offerings within the individual health insurance market.
The recorded purchase price for business combinations includes an estimation of the fair value of contingent earnout obligations associated with contractual earnout provisions and other similar provisions providing for post-closing contingent consideration payments, which are based on recurring revenue, the insured value of sourced homeowners’ insurance of Westwood or other similar post-closing metrics. The contingent earnout consideration amounts identified in the table below are measured at fair value within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy as discussed further in Note 13. Any subsequent changes in the fair value of contingent earnout liabilities will be recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) when incurred.
The recorded purchase price for certain business combinations also includes an estimation of the fair value of equity interests, which is calculated based on the value of the Company’s Class A common stock on the closing date taking into account a discount for lack of marketability.
The operating results of these business combinations have been included in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) since their respective acquisition dates. The Company recognized total revenues and net income from these business combinations of $31.5 million and $10.0 million, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and $49.7 million and $17.1 million, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.
Acquisition-related costs incurred in connection with these business combinations are recorded in other operating expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss). The Company incurred acquisition-related costs from these business combinations of $2.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Due to the complexity of valuing the consideration paid and the purchase price allocation and the timing of these activities, certain amounts included in the consolidated financial statements may be provisional and subject to additional adjustments within the measurement period as permitted by Topic 805. Specifically, the Company's valuations of premiums, commissions and fees receivable in accordance with Topic 606 are estimates subject to change based on relevant factors over the policy period. The valuations of intangible assets are also estimates based on assumptions of factors such as discount rates and growth rates. Accordingly, these assets are subject to measurement period adjustments as determined after the passage of time. Any measurement period adjustments related to prior period business combinations are reflected as current period adjustments in accordance with Topic 805.
The table below provides a summary of the total consideration and the estimated purchase price allocations made for each of the business acquisitions that became effective during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

3. Variable Interest Entities
Topic 810 requires a reporting entity to consolidate a variable interest entity (“VIE”) when the reporting entity has a variable interest or combination of variable interests that provide the entity with a controlling financial interest in the VIE. The Company continually assesses whether it has a controlling financial interest in each of its VIEs to determine if it is the primary beneficiary of the VIE and should, therefore, consolidate each of the VIEs. A reporting entity is considered to have a controlling financial interest in a VIE if it has (i) the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance, and (ii) the obligation to absorb the losses of, or the right to receive benefits from, the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE.
The Company determined that it is the primary beneficiary of its VIEs, which, at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, include Laureate Insurance Partners, LLC, BKS Smith, LLC, BKS MS, LLC and BKS Partners Galati Marine Solutions, LLC. The Company has consolidated its VIEs into the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Total revenues and expenses of the Company’s consolidated VIEs included in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) were $0.5 million and $0.2 million, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and $0.3 million and $0.1 million, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2021. Total revenues and expenses of the Company’s consolidated VIEs included in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) were $1.3 million and $0.8 million, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and $0.7 million and $0.5 million, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.
The assets of the consolidated VIEs can only be used to settle the obligations of the consolidated VIEs and the creditors of the liabilities of the consolidated VIEs do not have recourse to the Company.

__________
(1)    Direct bill revenue represents commission revenue earned by facilitating the arrangement between individuals or businesses and Insurance Company Partners by providing insurance placement services to Clients, primarily for private risk management, commercial risk management, employee benefits and Medicare insurance types.
(2)    Agency bill revenue primarily represents commission revenue earned by facilitating the arrangement between individuals or businesses and Insurance Company Partners by providing insurance placement services to Clients wherein the Company acts as an agent on behalf of the Client.
(3)    Profit-sharing revenue represents bonus-type revenue that is earned by the Company as a sales incentive provided by certain Insurance Company Partners.
(4)    Service fee revenue is earned by receiving negotiated fees in lieu of a commission and consulting revenue is earned by providing specialty insurance consulting.
(5)    Policy fee revenue represents revenue earned for acting in the capacity of an MGA on behalf of Insurance Company Partners and fulfilling certain services including delivery of policy documents, processing payments and other administrative functions. Installment fee revenue represents revenue earned by the Company for providing payment processing services on behalf of the Insurance Company Partner related to policy premiums paid on an installment basis.
(6)    Other income consists of Medicare marketing income that is based on agreed-upon cost reimbursement for fulfilling specific targeted marketing campaigns in addition to other ancillary income and premium financing income generated across all Operating Groups.
The application of Topic 606 requires the use of management judgment. The following are the areas of most significant judgment as it relates to Topic 606:
The Company considers the policyholders as representative of its customers in the majority of contractual relationships, with the exception of contracts in its Medicare operating segment, where the Insurance Company Partner is considered its customer.
Contracts in the Medicare operating segment are multi-year arrangements in which the Company is entitled to renewal commissions. However, the Company has applied a constraint to renewal commission that limits revenue recognized on new policies to the policy year in effect, and revenue recognized on renewed policies to the receipt of periodic cash, when a risk of significant reversals exists based on: (i) insufficient history; and (ii) the influence of external factors outside of the Company’s control, including policyholder discretion over plans and Insurance Company Partner relationship, political influence, and a contractual provision, which limits the Company’s right to receive renewal commissions to ongoing compliance and regulatory approval of the relevant Insurance Company Partner and compliance with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.
The Company recognizes separately contracted commissions revenue at the effective date of insurance placement and considers any ongoing interaction with the customer to be immaterial in the context of the contract.
Variable consideration includes estimates of direct bill commissions, a reserve for policy cancellations and estimates of profit-sharing revenue.
Costs to obtain a contract are deferred and recognized over five years, which represents management’s estimate of the average period over which a Client maintains its initial coverage relationship with the original Insurance Company Partner.
Due to the relatively short time period between the information gathering phase and binding insurance coverage, the Company has determined that costs to fulfill contracts are not significant. Therefore, costs to fulfill a contract are expensed as incurred.

5. Contract Assets and Liabilities
Contract assets arise when the Company recognizes revenue for amounts which have not yet been billed and contract liabilities relate to payments received in advance of performance under the contract before the transfer of a good or service to the customer. Contract assets are included in premiums, commissions and fees receivable, net and contract liabilities are included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

6. Deferred Commission Expense
The Company pays an incremental amount of compensation in the form of producer commissions on new business. In accordance with ASC Topic 340, Other Assets and Deferred Costs, these incremental costs are deferred and amortized over five years, which represents management’s estimate of the average benefit period for new business. Deferred commission expense represents advisor commissions that are capitalized and not yet expensed and are included in other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

BRP previously had advisor incentive agreements with several of its Risk Advisors to incentivize them to stay with the Company and grow their Book of Business. The incentive rights had a deposit buy-in requirement payable in the form of payroll withholding or other cash payments for which the Company recorded an advisor incentive liability. The incentive rights could be converted to LLC Units after the achievement of certain milestones, subject to approval at the discretion of management. The Company’s obligation related to advisor incentive liabilities of all but one Risk Advisor was settled in connection with its reorganization during 2019. One Risk Advisor chose not to convert his incentive rights into common stock of BRP Group. As a result, the remaining advisor incentive liability has been reported at expected value of the expected buyout amount each reporting period as a component of other liabilities in the accompanying balance sheets.
During the second quarter of 2022, the Company entered into an agreement with this Risk Advisor to settle the advisor incentive liability for $4.8 million, at which time the liability was reclassified from other liabilities to accrued expenses and other current liabilities. The obligation was subsequently satisfied in the third quarter of 2022.
9. Long-Term Debt
As of December 31, 2021, the JPM Credit Agreement provided for senior secured credit facilities in an aggregate principal amount of $1.325 billion, which consisted of (i) a term loan facility in the principal amount of $850.0 million maturing in 2027 (the “Term Loan B”) and (ii) a revolving credit facility with commitments in an aggregate principal amount of $475.0 million maturing in 2025 (the “Revolving Facility”).
On March 28, 2022, the Company entered into Amendment No. 5 to the JPM Credit Agreement, under which (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Facility was increased from $475.0 million to $600.0 million, (ii) the interest rate on the Revolving Facility changed to the SOFR, plus a credit spread adjustment of 10 bps plus an amount between 200 bps and 300 bps based on the total net leverage ratio, (iii) the total net leverage ratio covenant increased to 7.0x consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) and (iv) the maturity of the Revolving Facility was extended to April 1, 2027. The other terms of the Revolving Facility and the terms of the Term Loan B remained unchanged. The JPM Credit Agreement also provides for a benchmark replacement to SOFR for the Term Loan B such that there are no material contract modifications resulting from a transition from LIBOR.
19


The Term Loan B bears interest at LIBOR plus 350 bps, subject to a LIBOR floor of 50 bps. At September 30, 2022, the outstanding borrowings on the Term Loan B were $840.2 million and had an applicable interest rate of 6.26% at September 30, 2022. The outstanding borrowings on the Term Loan B are offset by unamortized debt discount and issuance costs of $20.8 million on the balance sheet at September 30, 2022. The outstanding borrowings on the Revolving Facility of $527.0 million had an applicable interest rate of 6.07% at September 30, 2022. The Revolving Facility is also subject to a commitment fee of 0.40% on the unused capacity at September 30, 2022.
The JPM Credit Agreement requires the Company to meet certain financial covenants and comply with customary affirmative and negative covenants as listed in the underlying agreement. The Company was in compliance with these covenants at September 30, 2022.
Interest Rate Caps
The Company enters into interest rate caps to mitigate its exposure to interest rate risk on its debt by limiting the impact of interest rate changes on cash flows. On May 5, 2022, the Company sold its $300.0 million notional, 2.50% interest rate cap expiring March 8, 2026 and two $100.0 million notional, 3.00% interest rate caps expiring August 13, 2028 for aggregate proceeds of $19.0 million. The Company retained its $300.0 million notional, 1.50% interest rate cap expiring on March 10, 2024.
The interest rate caps are recorded at an aggregate fair value of $12.2 million and $6.3 million at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The interest rate caps are included as a component of other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company recognized a fair value gain on interest rate caps, net of cash received for settlement of $3.6 million and $24.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, and a fair value loss on interest rate caps of $0.3 million and $1.2 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021. In addition, the Company recognized a gain on interest rate caps related to settlements received of $0.5 million for each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. The fair value gain or loss on interest rate caps and the gain on interest rate caps related to settlements received are included as components of other income (expense), net in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss).
10. Related Party Transactions
Notes Payable
In September 2021, the Company accelerated recognition of MSI’s maximum contingent earnout and entered into notes payable agreements with each of MSI’s shareholders for a combined principal amount of $61.5 million. The related party notes were subsequently paid in full in April 2022.

11. Share-Based Compensation
The Company has an Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Omnibus Plan”) and a Partnership Inducement Award Plan (the “Inducement Plan” and collectively, the “Plans”) to motivate and reward Colleagues and other individuals, including those who join the Company through Partnerships, to perform at the highest level and contribute significantly to the Company’s success, thereby furthering the best interests of its shareholders. The Omnibus Plan and the Inducement Plan provide for the Company to make awards of 6,142,862 and 3,000,000 shares of Class A common stock, respectively, at September 30, 2022.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company made awards of restricted stock, unrestricted stock and performance-based restricted stock units under the Plans to its non-employee directors, Colleagues and executive officers. Shares of unrestricted stock issued to directors during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 were vested upon issuance, while restricted stock issued to Colleagues, Risk Advisors and executive officers generally either cliff vest after 3 to 4 years or vest ratably over 3 to 5 years.
The following table summarizes the activity for non-vested awards granted by the Company under the Plans:

The total fair value of shares that vested and settled under the Plans was $13.9 million and $5.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Share-based compensation includes expense recognized for management incentive units and advisor incentives, in addition to issuances under the Plans. The Company recognizes share-based compensation expense for the Plans net of actual forfeitures. The Company recorded total share-based compensation expense of $8.4 million and $3.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $26.1 million and $11.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, which is included in commissions, employee compensation and benefits expense in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss).
12. Earnings (Loss) Per Share
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to BRP Group, Inc. by the weighted-average number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed giving effect to all potentially dilutive shares of common stock.
21


During the periods presented, potentially dilutive securities include restricted stock awards and shares of Class B common stock, which can be exchanged (together with a corresponding number of LLC Units) for shares of Class A common stock on a one-for-one basis. The following potentially dilutive securities were excluded from the Company's diluted weighted-average number of shares outstanding calculation for the periods presented as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

The shares of Class B common stock do not share in the earnings or losses attributable to BRP Group, and therefore, are not participating securities. Accordingly, a separate presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share of Class B common stock under the two-class method has not been included.
The following is a calculation of the basic and diluted weighted-average number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding and earnings (loss) per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021:

13. Fair Value Measurements
ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement (“Topic 820”) established a framework for measuring fair value. That framework provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurement). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under Topic 820 are described below:
Level 1:    Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Company has the ability to access.
Level 2:    Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted market prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market.
Level 3:    Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.
22


The fair value measurement level for assets and liabilities within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
The following table summarizes the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis within each level of the fair value hierarchy:
(in thousands)September 30, 2022December 31, 2021
Level 2
Interest rate caps$12,172 $6,338 
Level 2 Assets$12,172 $6,338 
Level 3
Contingent earnout liabilities$229,614 $258,589 
Level 3 Liabilities$229,614 $258,589 
Methodologies used for liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 are based on limited unobservable inputs. These methods may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of the net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, while the Company believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date.
The fair value of interest rate caps was $12.2 million at September 30, 2022. The fair value of interest rate caps is determined using the market standard methodology of discounting the future expected cash receipts that would occur if variable interest rates rise above the strike rate of the caps. The variable interest rates used in the calculation of projected receipts on the cap are based on an expectation of future interest rates derived from observable market interest rate curves and volatilities.
The fair value of contingent earnout liabilities is based on sales projections for the acquired entities, which are reassessed each reporting period. Based on the Company’s ongoing assessment of the fair value of its contingent earnout liabilities, the Company recorded a net increase in the estimated fair value of such liabilities of $21.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and a net decrease of $10.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The Company has assessed the maximum estimated exposure to the contingent earnout liabilities to be approximately $980.5 million at September 30, 2022.
The Company measures contingent earnout liabilities at fair value at each reporting period using significant unobservable inputs classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The Company uses a probability weighted value analysis as a valuation technique to convert future estimated cash flows to a single present value amount. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements are sales projections over the earnout period, and the probability outcome percentages assigned to each scenario. Significant increases or decreases to either of these inputs would result in a significantly higher or lower liability with a higher liability capped by the contractual maximum of the contingent earnout liabilities. Ultimately, the liability will be equivalent to the amount settled, and the difference between the fair value estimate and amount settled will be recorded in earnings for business combinations, or as a reduction of the cost of the assets acquired for asset acquisitions.
The fair value of the contingent earnout liabilities is based on Monte Carlo simulations that measure the present value of the expected future payments to be made to Partners in accordance with the provisions outlined in the respective purchase agreements, which is a Level 3 fair value measurement. In determining fair value, the Company estimates the Partner’s future performance using financial projections developed by management for the Partner and market participant assumptions that were derived for revenue growth, profitability based on EBITDA, the number of rental units tracked or the insured value of sourced homeowners’ insurance. Revenue and EBITDA growth rates generally ranged from 7% to 35% at September 30, 2022 and from 5% to 22% at December 31, 2021. The Company estimates future payments using the earnout formula and performance targets specified in each purchase agreement and these financial projections. These payments are discounted to present value using a risk-adjusted rate that takes into consideration market-based rates of return that reflect the ability of the Partner to achieve the targets. These discount rates generally ranged from 8.25% to 18.00% at September 30, 2022 and from 5.00% to 15.50% at December 31, 2021. Changes in financial projections, market participant assumptions for revenue growth and profitability, or the risk-adjusted discount rate, would result in a change in the fair value of contingent consideration.

The following table sets forth a summary of the changes in the fair value of the Company’s contingent earnout liabilities, which are measured at fair value on a recurring basis utilizing Level 3 assumptions in their valuation:

__________
(1)    During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company recorded measurement period adjustments relating to businesses acquired in the fourth quarter of 2020. These adjustments decreased contingent earnout liabilities by $4.7 million, which offsets issuances of $60.9 million from business combinations for the period.
(2)    During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company settled $61.5 million of its contingent earnout liabilities through the issuance of related party notes payable, of which $35.9 million is included in payment of contingent earnout consideration in excess of purchase price accrual in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. Refer to Note 10 for additional information.
Fair Value of Other Financial Instruments
The fair value of long-term debt and the revolving line of credit is based on an estimate using a discounted cash flow analysis based on current borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements. The carrying amount and estimated fair value of long-term debt and the revolving line of credit were as follows:
Fair Value HierarchySeptember 30, 2022December 31, 2021

(1)    The carrying amount of the long-term debt does not reflect unamortized debt discount and issuance costs of $20.8 million and $23.5 million at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, which are netted against long-term debt for balance sheet presentation.
14. Commitments and Contingencies
In April 2022, BRP made a commitment to the University of South Florida (“USF”) to donate a total of $5.3 million through October 2028. The gift will provide support for the School of Risk Management and Insurance in the USF Muma College of Business. It is currently anticipated that Lowry Baldwin, our Board Chair, will fund half of the amounts to be donated by BRP. No payments have been made toward this commitment as of September 30, 2022.
The Company is involved in various claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. A liability is recorded when a loss is considered probable and is reasonably estimable in accordance with GAAP. In the opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity.
The Company is in negotiations to settle one or more disputes relating to alleged restrictive covenant violations on the part of certain of its Risk Advisors. The Company has determined that a loss with an estimated range between $1.5 million and $1.8 million is probable. The Company accrued $1.5 million relating to this contingency during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 as a component of other operating expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss).
15. Segment Information
BRP Group’s business is divided into four Operating Groups: Middle Market, Specialty, MainStreet, and Medicare.
24


The Middle Market Operating Group provides expertly-designed commercial risk management, employee benefits solutions and private risk management for mid-to-large size businesses and high net worth individuals, as well as their families.
The Specialty Operating Group consists of two distinct businesses. Our specialty wholesale broker businesses deliver specialty insurers, professionals, individuals and niche industry businesses expanded access to exclusive specialty markets, capabilities and programs requiring complex underwriting and placement. Specialty also houses our MGA of the Future platform, in which we manufacture proprietary, technology enabled insurance products that are then distributed (in many instances via technology and/or API integrations) internally via our Risk Advisors in Middle Market and MainStreet and externally via select distribution partners, with a focus on sheltered channels where our products deliver speed, ease of use and certainty of execution, an example of which is our national embedded renter’s insurance product sold at point of lease via integrations with property management software providers.
The MainStreet Operating Group offers personal insurance, commercial insurance and life and health solutions to individuals and businesses in their communities.
The Medicare Operating Group offers consultation for government assistance programs and solutions, including traditional Medicare, Medicare Advantage and Affordable Care Act, to seniors and eligible individuals, through a network of primarily independent contractor agents. In the Medicare Operating Group, BRP generates commissions and fees in the form of direct bill insurance placement and marketing income. Marketing income is earned through co-branded marketing campaigns with our Insurance Company Partners.
In the Middle Market, MainStreet, and Specialty Operating Groups, the Company generates commissions and fees from insurance placement under both agency bill and direct bill arrangements. In addition, the Company generates profit sharing income in each of those segments based on either the underlying Book of Business or performance, such as loss ratios. In the Middle Market and Specialty Operating Groups, the Company generates fees from service fee and consulting arrangements. Service fee arrangements are in place with certain customers in lieu of commission arrangements.
In the Medicare Operating Group, the Company generates commissions and fees in the form of direct bill insurance placement and marketing income. Marketing income is earned through co-branded marketing campaigns with the Company’s Insurance Company Partners.
The Company’s chief operating decision maker, the chief executive officer, uses net income (loss) and net income (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, and one-time transactional-related expenses or non-recurring items to manage resources and make decisions about the business.
Summarized financial information concerning the Company’s Operating Groups is shown in the following tables. The Corporate and Other non-reportable segment includes any expenses not allocated to the Operating Groups and corporate-related items, including related party and third-party interest expense. Intersegment revenue and expenses are eliminated through the Corporate and Other column. Service center expenses and other overhead are allocated to the Company’s Operating Groups based on either revenue or headcount as applicable to each expense.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the related notes and other financial information included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the SEC on March 1, 2022. In addition to historical consolidated financial information, the following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates, and beliefs. Our actual results may differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those set forth in Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors and Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and under Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 1, 2022.
THE COMPANY
BRP Group, Inc. (“BRP Group,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”) is an independent insurance distribution firm delivering tailored insurance and risk management insights and solutions that give our Clients the peace of mind to pursue their purpose, passion and dreams. We support our Clients, Colleagues, Insurance Company Partners and communities through the deployment of vanguard resources, technology and capital to drive organic and inorganic growth. When we consistently execute for these key stakeholders, we believe that the outcome is an increase in value for our fifth stakeholder, our shareholders. We are innovating the industry by taking a holistic and tailored approach to risk management, insurance and employee benefits. Our growth plan includes continuing to recruit, train and develop industry leading talent, continuing to add geographic representation, insurance product expertise and end-client industry expertise via our Partnership strategy, and the continued buildout of our MGA of the Future platform, which delivers proprietary, technology-enabled insurance solutions to our internal Risk Advisors as well as to a growing channel of external distribution partners. We are a destination employer supported by an award-winning culture, powered by exceptional people and fueled by industry-leading growth and innovation.
We represent over 1,200,000 Clients across the United States and internationally. Our more than 3,800 Colleagues include over 640 Risk Advisors, who are fiercely independent, relentlessly competitive and “insurance geeks.” We have approximately 125 offices in 23 states, all of which are equipped to provide diversified products and services to empower our Clients at every stage through our four Operating Groups.
Middle Market provides expertly-designed commercial risk management, employee benefits solutions and private risk management for mid-to-large-size businesses and high net worth individuals, as well as their families.
MainStreet offers personal insurance, commercial insurance and life and health solutions to individuals and businesses in their communities.
Medicare offers consultation for government assistance programs and solutions, including traditional Medicare, Medicare Advantage and Affordable Care Act, to seniors and eligible individuals through a network of primarily independent contractor agents. In the Medicare Operating Group, we generate commissions and fees in the form of direct bill insurance placement and marketing income. Marketing income is earned through co-branded marketing campaigns with our Insurance Company Partners.
Specialty consists of two distinct businesses with MGA of the Future representing approximately 86% of the revenue. Our specialty wholesale broker businesses deliver specialty insurers, professionals, individuals and niche industry businesses expanded access to exclusive specialty markets, capabilities and programs requiring complex underwriting and placement. Specialty also houses our MGA of the Future platform, in which we deliver proprietary, technology enabled insurance products that are then distributed (in many instances via technology and/or API integrations) internally via our Risk Advisors in Middle Market and MainStreet and externally via select distribution partners, with a focus on sheltered channels where our products deliver speed, ease of use and certainty of execution, an example of which is our national embedded renter’s insurance product sold at point of lease via integrations with property management software providers.
In 2011, we adopted the “Azimuth” as our corporate constitution. Named after a historical navigation tool used to find “true north,” the Azimuth asserts our core values, business basics and stakeholder promises. The ideals encompassed by the Azimuth support our mission to deliver indispensable, tailored insurance and risk management insights and solutions to our Clients. We strive to be regarded as the preeminent insurance advisory firm fueled by relationships, powered by people and exemplified by Client adoption and loyalty. This type of environment is upheld by the distinct vernacular we use to describe our services and culture. We are a firm, instead of an agency; we have Colleagues, instead of employees; we have Risk Advisors, instead of producers/agents. We serve Clients instead of customers and we refer to our acquisitions as Partnerships. We refer to insurance brokerages that we have acquired, or in the case of asset acquisitions, the producers, as Partners.
27


Seasonality
The insurance brokerage market is seasonal and our results of operations are somewhat affected by seasonal trends. Our Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margins are typically highest in the first quarter and lowest in the fourth quarter. This variation is primarily due to fluctuations in our revenues, while overhead remains consistent throughout the year. Our revenues are generally highest in the first quarter due to the impact of contingent payments received in the first quarter from Insurance Company Partners that we cannot readily estimate before receipt without the risk of significant reversal and a higher degree of first quarter policy commencements and renewals in Medicare and certain Middle Market lines of business such as employee benefits and commercial. In addition, a higher proportion of our first quarter revenue is derived from our highest margin businesses.
Partnerships can significantly impact Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margins in a given year and may increase the amount of seasonality within the business, especially results attributable to Partnerships that have not been fully integrated into our business or owned by us for a full year.
PARTNERSHIPS
We utilize strategic acquisitions, which we refer to as Partnerships, to complement and expand our business. We source Partnerships through proprietary deal flow, competitive auctions and cultivated industry relationships. We are currently considering Partnership opportunities in all of our Operating Groups, including businesses to complement or expand our MGA of the Future.
The financial impact of Partnerships may affect the comparability of our results from period to period. Our acquisition strategy also entails certain risks, including the risks that we may not be able to successfully source, value, close, integrate and effectively manage businesses that we acquire. To mitigate that risk, we have a professional team focused on finding new Partners and integrating new Partnerships. Executing on Partnership opportunities is a key pillar in our long-term growth strategy over the next seven years.
We completed three Partnerships for an aggregate purchase price of $415.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and ten Partnerships for an aggregate purchase price of $387.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Partnerships completed during 2022 added a total of $4.4 million of premiums, commissions and fees receivable, $224.3 million of intangible assets and $188.7 million of goodwill to the condensed consolidated balance sheet on the Partnership date.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2022 AND 2021
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and the related notes and other financial information included elsewhere in this report. In addition to historical financial information, the following discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results and timing of selected events may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including those discussed under Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 1, 2022.

Commissions and Fees
We earn commissions and fees by facilitating the arrangement between Insurance Company Partners and individuals or businesses for the carrier to provide insurance to the insured party. Our commissions and fees are usually a percentage of the premium paid by the insured and generally depends on the type of insurance, the particular Insurance Company Partner and the nature of the services provided. Under certain arrangements with Clients, we earn pre-negotiated service fees in lieu of commissions. Additionally, we may also receive from Insurance Company Partners a profit-sharing commission, or straight override, which represent forms of variable consideration associated with the placement of coverage and are based primarily on underwriting results, but may also contain considerations for volume, growth or retention.
Commissions and fees increased $123.8 million and $326.6 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the same periods of 2021, respectively. The increase for the periods related to amounts attributable to Partners acquired during 2021 and 2022 prior to their having reached the twelve-month owned mark (such amounts, the “Partnership Contribution”) and organic growth. The Partnership Contribution accounted for $85.8 million and $234.8 million of the increase to commissions and fees for the quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively, and organic growth accounted for $38.0 million and $91.8 million of the increase for the quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively.

Direct bill revenue represents commission revenue earned by providing insurance placement services to Clients, primarily for private risk management, commercial risk management, employee benefits and Medicare insurance types. Direct bill revenue increased by $52.8 million and $133.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the same periods of 2021, respectively. The Partnership Contribution accounted for $42.9 million and $105.2 million of the increase to direct bill revenue for the quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively. Organic growth for direct bill revenue was $9.9 million and $28.1 million for the quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively.
Agency bill revenue primarily represents commission revenue earned by providing insurance placement services to clients wherein we act as an agent on behalf of the Client. Agency bill revenue increased $39.4 million and $118.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the same periods of 2021, respectively. The Partnership Contribution accounted for $29.7 million and $91.7 million of the increase to agency bill revenue for the quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively. Organic growth for agency bill revenue was $9.7 million and $27.1 million for the quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively.
Profit-sharing revenue represents bonus-type or contingent revenue that is earned by us as a sales incentive provided by certain Insurance Company Partners. Profit-sharing revenue increased $6.9 million and $22.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the same periods of 2021, respectively, as a result of the Partnership Contribution of $3.8 million and $13.3 million, respectively, and organic growth of $3.1 million and $9.6 million, respectively. Profit-sharing revenue can be affected by higher loss ratios in our Middle Market and MainStreet Operating Groups, which is particularly acute in the Florida homeowners marketplace.
Consulting and service fee revenue represents fees received in lieu of a commission and specialty insurance consulting revenue. Consulting and service fee revenue increased $9.7 million and $21.6 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the same periods of 2021, respectively, as a result of the Partnership Contribution of $8.2 million and $17.8 million, respectively, and organic growth of $1.5 million and $3.8 million, respectively.
Policy fee and installment fee revenue represents revenue earned for acting in the capacity of an MGA and providing payment processing and services and other administrative functions on behalf of Insurance Company Partners. Policy fee and installment fee revenue increased $12.9 million and $22.7 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the same periods of 2021, respectively, primarily due to organic growth. These fees are generated by our Specialty Operating Group.
Other income consists of Medicare marketing income that is based on agreed-upon cost reimbursement for fulfilling specific targeted marketing campaigns in addition to other ancillary income and premium financing income generated across all Operating Groups. Other income increased $2.1 million and $7.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the same periods of 2021, respectively. The increase in other income for the year-to-date period is primarily attributable to the Partnership Contribution for our Specialty and Middle Market Operating Groups.

Commissions, Employee Compensation and Benefits
Commissions, employee compensation and benefits is our largest expense. It consists of (a) base compensation comprising salary, bonuses and benefits paid and payable to Colleagues, commissions paid to Colleagues and outside commissions paid to others; and (b) equity-based compensation associated with the grants of restricted and unrestricted stock awards to senior management, Colleagues, Risk Advisors and directors. We expect to continue to experience a general rise in commissions, employee compensation and benefits expense commensurate with expected growth in our revenue and headcount. We operate in competitive markets for human capital and need to maintain competitive compensation levels as we expand geographically and create new products and services. Our Colleague-related costs have risen as a result of the increasingly competitive market and the inflationary environment.
Our compensation arrangements with our employees contain significant bonus or commission components driven by the results of our operations. Therefore, as we grow commissions and fees, we expect compensation costs to rise.
Commissions, employee compensation and benefits expenses increased $95.8 million and $244.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the same periods of 2021, respectively. The Partnership Contribution accounted for $44.4 million and $126.7 million of the increase to commissions, employee compensation and benefits for the quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively. Share-based compensation expense increased $4.6 million and $14.1 million, respectively, as a result of equity grants awarded to all newly hired Colleagues, including those who joined us through Partnerships, and grants to reward Colleagues, including members of senior management. The remaining increase in commissions, employee compensation and benefits expense can be attributed to higher commissions expense relating to our organic growth, higher compensation and benefits related to hiring to support our growth, and the inflationary environment, which has resulted in significant increases in the cost of human capital.
Other Operating Expenses
Other operating expenses include travel, accounting, legal and other professional fees, placement fees, rent, office expenses and other costs associated with our operations. Our occupancy-related costs and professional services expenses, in particular, generally increase or decrease in relative proportion to the number of our employees and the overall size and scale of our business operations.
Other operating expenses increased $19.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the same period of 2021, which was primarily attributable to increases in dues and subscriptions of $5.1 million from our investment in technology to support our growth, travel and entertainment of $4.7 million relating to integration of our 2021 Partnerships and our leadership and Risk Advisor conference, advertising and marketing of $2.8 million, rent expense of $1.4 million relating to expansion of our operating locations, Colleague education and welfare of $1.2 million relating to investments in our Colleagues, and repairs and maintenance of $1.1 million.
Other operating expenses increased $60.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the same period of 2021, which was primarily attributable to increases in dues and subscriptions of $12.0 million from our investment in technology to support our growth, travel and entertainment of $9.2 million relating to integration of our 2021 Partnerships and our leadership and Risk Advisor conference, rent expense of $7.2 million relating to expansion of our operating locations, Colleague education and welfare of $5.6 million relating to investments in our Colleagues, advertising and marketing of $5.4 million, professional fees of $3.8 million, licenses and taxes of $3.5 million relating to revenue growth, repairs and maintenance of $3.4 million, and recruiting expense of $2.4 million.
Amortization Expense
Amortization expense increased $10.6 million and $26.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the same periods of 2021, respectively, which was driven by amortization of intangible assets recorded in connection with Partnerships over the past twelve months.
Change in Fair Value of Contingent Consideration
Change in fair value of contingent consideration was a $21.7 million loss for the three months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to a $11.3 million loss for the same period of 2021. The change in fair value of contingent consideration for the third quarter of 2022 was impacted by changes in growth trends of certain partners, offset in part by high market volatility and rising interest rates, which resulted in an overall higher contingent earnout consideration value.
31


Change in fair value of contingent consideration was a $10.8 million gain for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to a $23.2 million loss for the same period of 2021. The change in fair value of contingent consideration for the year-to-date period of 2022 was impacted by high market volatility and rising interest rates, offset in part by changes in growth trends of certain partners, which resulted in an overall lower contingent earnout consideration value.
Depreciation Expense
Depreciation expense increased $0.5 million and $1.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the same periods of 2021, respectively, which was driven by our growth.
Interest Expense, Net
Interest expense, net increased $13.8 million and $27.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the same periods of 2021, respectively, resulting from higher average borrowings outstanding and higher average interest rates related to increases in the benchmark rates for our variable rate debt.
Refer to Item 3. Qualitative and Quantitative Disclosures About Market Risk for further discussion of the impact of rising interest rates on our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
Other Income (Expense), Net
Other income (expense), net was $3.9 million and $25.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, primarily as a result of a gain on interest rate caps of $4.2 million and $25.4 million recorded during the quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively, in connection with rising interest rates and market estimates for future rate increases. The gain for the year-to-date period includes $13.5 million that was realized in connection with our sale of three interest rate caps during the second quarter.
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Organic Revenue, Organic Revenue Growth, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share (“EPS”), are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered substitutes for GAAP measures, including commissions and fees (for Organic Revenue and Organic Revenue Growth), net income (loss) (for Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin) net income (loss) attributable to BRP Group, Inc. (for Adjusted Net Income) or diluted earnings (loss) per share (for Adjusted Diluted EPS), which we consider to be the most directly comparable GAAP measures. These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and when assessing our operating performance, you should not consider these non-GAAP financial measures in isolation or as substitutes for commissions and fees, net income (loss), net income (loss) attributable to BRP Group, Inc., diluted earnings (loss) per share or other consolidated income statement data prepared in accordance with GAAP. Other companies in our industry may define or calculate these non-GAAP financial measures differently than we do, and accordingly these measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.
We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, change in fair value of contingent consideration and certain items of income and expense, including share-based compensation expense, transaction-related expenses related to Partnerships, severance, and certain non-recurring items, including those related to raising capital. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is an appropriate measure of operating performance because it eliminates the impact of income and expenses that do not relate to business performance, and that the presentation of this measure enhances an investor’s understanding of our financial performance.
Adjusted EBITDA Margin is Adjusted EBITDA divided by commissions and fees. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is a key metric used by management and our board of directors to assess our financial performance. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA Margin is an appropriate measure of operating performance because it eliminates the impact of income and expenses that do not relate to business performance, and that the presentation of this measure enhances an investor’s understanding of our financial performance. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA Margin is helpful in measuring profitability of operations on a consolidated level.
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin have important limitations as analytical tools. For example, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin:
do not reflect any cash capital expenditure requirements for the assets being depreciated and amortized that may have to be replaced in the future;
do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
32


do not reflect the impact of certain cash charges resulting from matters we consider not to be indicative of our ongoing operations;
do not reflect the interest expense or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt;
do not reflect share-based compensation expense and other non-cash charges; and
exclude certain tax payments that may represent a reduction in cash available to us.
We calculate Organic Revenue based on commissions and fees for the relevant period by excluding the first twelve months of commissions and fees generated from new Partners. Organic Revenue Growth is the change in Organic Revenue period-to-period, with prior period results adjusted to include commissions and fees that were excluded from Organic Revenue in the prior period because the relevant Partners had not yet reached the twelve-month owned mark, but which have reached the twelve-month owned mark in the current period. For example, revenues from a Partner acquired on June 1, 2021 are excluded from Organic Revenue for 2021. However, after June 1, 2022, results from June 1, 2021 to December 31, 2021 for such Partners are compared to results from June 1, 2022 to December 31, 2022 for purposes of calculating Organic Revenue Growth in 2022. Organic Revenue Growth is a key metric used by management and our board of directors to assess our financial performance. We believe that Organic Revenue and Organic Revenue Growth are appropriate measures of operating performance as they allow investors to measure, analyze and compare growth in a meaningful and consistent manner.
Adjusted Net Income is presented for the purpose of calculating Adjusted Diluted EPS. We define Adjusted Net Income as net income (loss) attributable to BRP Group, Inc. adjusted for depreciation, amortization, change in fair value of contingent consideration and certain items of income and expense, including share-based compensation expense, transaction-related expenses related to Partnerships, severance, and certain non-recurring costs that, in the opinion of management, significantly affect the period-over-period assessment of operating results, and the related tax effect of those adjustments. We believe that Adjusted Net Income is an appropriate measure of operating performance because it eliminates the impact of expenses that do not relate to business performance.
Adjusted Diluted EPS measures our per share earnings excluding certain expenses as discussed above and assuming all shares of Class B common stock were exchanged for Class A common stock. Adjusted Diluted EPS is calculated as Adjusted Net Income divided by adjusted dilutive weighted-average shares outstanding. We believe Adjusted Diluted EPS is useful to investors because it enables them to better evaluate per share operating performance across reporting periods.

Commissions and fees for our MainStreet Operating Group increased $31.1 million for the third quarter of 2022 as compared to the same period of 2021 as a result of the Partnership Contribution of $29.1 million and organic growth of $2.0 million, primarily related to base commissions and fees.

Commissions and fees for our MainStreet Operating Group increased $53.0 million for the first nine months of 2022 as compared to the same period of 2021 as a result of the Partnership Contribution of $47.1 million and organic growth of $5.9 million, primarily related to base commissions and fees.
Commissions and fees for our Medicare Operating Group increased $2.2 million for the third quarter of 2022 as compared to the same period of 2021 as a result of the Partnership Contribution of $1.6 million and organic growth of $0.6 million.
Commissions and fees for our Medicare Operating Group increased $7.9 million for the first nine months of 2022 as compared to the same period of 2021 as a result of organic growth of $4.3 million and the Partnership Contribution of $3.6 million.
Revenue reported for Corporate and Other relates to the elimination of intercompany revenue. During the third quarter of 2022, the Middle Market Operating Group recorded intercompany commissions and fees from activity with the Specialty Operating Group of $0.4 million; the Specialty Operating Group recorded intercompany commissions and fees from activity with the MainStreet Operating Group and itself of $15.8 million; the MainStreet Operating Group recorded intercompany commissions and fees from activity with the Middle Market and Specialty Operating Groups of $0.2 million; and the Medicare Operating Group recorded intercompany commissions and fees from activity with itself of $0.2 million. These amounts were eliminated through Corporate and Other.
During the first nine months of 2022, the Middle Market Operating Group recorded intercompany commissions and fees from activity with the Specialty Operating Group of $1.1 million; the Specialty Operating Group recorded intercompany commissions and fees from activity with the MainStreet Operating Group and itself of $24.5 million; the MainStreet Operating Group recorded intercompany commissions and fees from activity with the Middle Market and Specialty Operating Groups of $0.4 million; and the Medicare Operating Group recorded intercompany commissions and fees from activity with itself of $1.0 million. These amounts were eliminated through Corporate and Other.
The substantial increase in intercompany commissions and fees for each of the quarter and year-to-date periods is related to the QBE Program Administrator Agreement, which was entered into in connection with the Westwood Partnership. We expect that revenue relating to this agreement will continue to grow as we serve as the MGA on more intersegment revenue such as homeowners’ insurance sold through the MainStreet Operating Group.

Commissions, employee compensation and benefits expenses increased across all Operating Groups for each of the quarter and year-to-date periods of 2022 as compared to the same periods of 2021. The Partnership Contribution accounted for $19.7 million, $9.5 million, $14.1 million and $1.2 million of the increase to commissions, employee compensation and benefits expenses in the Middle Market, Specialty, MainStreet and Medicare Operating Groups, respectively, for the quarter. The Partnership Contribution accounted for $72.7 million, $29.5 million, $22.6 million and $1.9 million of the increase to commissions, employee compensation and benefits expenses in the Middle Market, Specialty, MainStreet and Medicare Operating Groups, respectively, for the year-to-date period. Commissions, employee compensation and benefits expenses also increased across all Operating Groups as a result of continued investments in hiring for our growth services team to support our growth, which costs are primarily allocated among the Operating Groups, and continued investment in sales and service talent. In addition, there have been significant increases in the cost of human capital in the current year as a result of the increasingly competitive market and the inflationary environment, which has impacted employee compensation and benefits costs for both the quarter and year-to-date periods.
Commissions, employee compensation and benefits expenses for Corporate and Other decreased for both the quarter and year-to-date periods of 2022 as compared to the same period of 2021 as a result of the elimination of intercompany expense, offset in part by our continued investments in hiring to support our growth and additional share-based compensation expense. Commissions, employee compensation and benefits expenses for Corporate and Other includes elimination amounts of $16.6 million and $27.0 million for the quarter and year-to-date periods of 2022, respectively, as compared to $0.9 million and $1.7 million for the quarter and year-to-date periods of 2021, respectively.
The substantial increase in intercompany commissions, employee compensation and benefits expense for each of the quarter and year-to-date periods is related to the QBE Program Administrator Agreement. We expect that commissions expense relating to this agreement will continue to grow as we serve as the MGA on more intersegment revenue such as homeowners’ insurance sold through the MainStreet Operating Group.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Our primary liquidity needs for the next twelve months will include cash to (i) provide capital to facilitate the organic growth of our business and to fund future Partnerships, (ii) pay operating expenses, including cash compensation to our employees and expenses related to being a public company, (iii) make payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement, (iv) pay interest and principal due on borrowings under the JPM Credit Agreement, (v) pay contingent earnout liabilities and (vi) pay taxes.
We have historically financed our operations and funded our debt service through the sale of our insurance products and services, and we have financed significant cash needs to fund growth through the acquisition of Partners through debt and equity financing.
At September 30, 2022, our cash and cash equivalents were $158.6 million and we had $73.0 million of available borrowing capacity on the Revolving Facility under the JPM Credit Agreement. We believe that our cash and cash equivalents, cash flow from operations and available borrowings will be sufficient to fund our working capital and meet our commitments for the next twelve months and beyond. In connection with our continuous exploration of Partnership opportunities, we will consider raising additional debt or equity financing if and as necessary to support our growth.
JPM Credit Agreement
As of December 31, 2021, our JPM Credit Agreement provided for senior secured credit facilities in an aggregate principal amount of $1.325 billion, which consisted of (i) a term loan facility in the principal amount of $850.0 million maturing in 2027 (the “Term Loan B”) and (ii) a revolving credit facility with commitments in an aggregate principal amount of $475.0 million maturing in 2025 (the “Revolving Facility”).
On March 28, 2022, the Company entered into Amendment No. 5 to the JPM Credit Agreement, under which (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Facility was increased from $475.0 million to $600.0 million and (ii) the interest rate on the Revolving Facility changed to the SOFR, plus a credit spread adjustment of 10 bps, plus an amount between 200 bps and 300 bps based on the total net leverage ratio, (iii) the total net leverage ratio covenant increased to 7.0x consolidated EBITDA and (iv) the maturity of the Revolving Facility was extended to April 1, 2027. The other terms of the Revolving Facility and the terms of the Term Loan B remained unchanged.
40


The Term Loan B bears interest at LIBOR plus 350 bps, subject to a LIBOR floor of 50 bps. The applicable interest rate on the Term Loan B at September 30, 2022 was 6.26%. Borrowings under the Revolving Facility accrue interest at SOFR plus 210 bps to SOFR plus 310 bps based on total net leverage ratio. BRP will pay a letter of credit fee equal to the margin then in effect with respect to SOFR loans under the Revolving Facility multiplied by the daily amount available to be drawn under any letter of credit, a fronting fee and any customary documentary and processing charges for any letter of credit issued under the JPM Credit Agreement. The outstanding borrowings on the Revolving Facility of $527.0 million had an applicable interest rate of 6.07% at September 30, 2022. The Revolving Facility is also subject to a commitment fee of 0.40% on the unused capacity at September 30, 2022.
The Revolving Facility and the Term Loan B are collateralized by a first priority lien on substantially all the assets of BRP, including a pledge of all equity securities of certain of its subsidiaries. The JPM Credit Agreement contains covenants that, among other things, restrict our ability to make certain restricted payments, incur additional debt, engage in certain asset sales, mergers, acquisitions or similar transactions, create liens on assets, engage in certain transactions with affiliates, change our business, make certain investments or restrict BRP’s ability to make dividends or other distributions to BRP Group. In addition, the JPM Credit Agreement contains financial covenants requiring us to maintain our Total First Lien Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the JPM Credit Agreement) at or below 7.00 to 1.00.

(2)    Represents scheduled debt obligations and estimated interest payments under the JPM Credit Agreement.
(3)    Includes $229.6 million of current and non-current estimated contingent earnout liabilities at September 30, 2022.
Our contractual obligations and commitments are comprised of operating lease obligations, principal and interest payments on our borrowings under the JPM Credit Agreement, potential payments of contingent earnout liabilities and our commitment to the University of South Florida (“USF”).
Our operating lease obligations represent noncancelable agreements for our corporate headquarters and office space for our insurance brokerage business. Our operating lease agreements expire through December 2030. These obligations do not include leases with an initial term of 12 months or less, which are expensed as incurred. We may extend, terminate or otherwise modify or sub-lease facilities as needed to best suit the needs of our business. The lease term is the non-cancelable period of the lease and includes options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that an option will be exercised.
Borrowings under our JPM Credit Agreement include $840.2 million under the Term Loan B and $527.0 million on the Revolving Facility. Interest payable on outstanding borrowings on the Term Loan B and Revolving Facility in the table above was calculated based on applicable interest rates at September 30, 2022 of 6.26% and 6.07%, respectively, through their respective expiration dates of October 2027 and April 2027.
41


Substantially all of our Partnerships and certain acquisitions of select books of business that do not constitute a complete business enterprise include contractual earnout provisions. We record an estimation of the fair value of the contingent earnout obligations at the Partnership date as a component of the consideration paid. Our contingent earnout obligations are measured at fair value at each reporting period based on the present value of the expected future payments to be made to Partners in accordance with the provisions outlined in the respective purchase agreements. The recorded obligations are based on estimates of the Partners future performance using financial projections for the earnout period. The maximum future contingent payment obligation at September 30, 2022 was $980.5 million, of which $78.4 million must be settled in cash and the remaining $902.1 million can be settled in cash or stock at our option. The aggregate estimated contingent earnout liabilities included on our consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2022 was $229.6 million, of which $24.4 million must be settled in cash and the remaining $205.2 million can be settled in cash or stock at our option.
We have a commitment to USF to donate a total of $5.3 million through October 2028. The gift will provide support for the School of Risk Management and Insurance in the USF Muma College of Business. It is currently anticipated that Lowry Baldwin, our Board Chair, will fund half of this commitment.
Tax Receivable Agreement
We expect to obtain an increase in our share of our tax basis of the assets when BRP’s LLC Units are redeemed or exchanged for shares of BRP Group’s Class A common stock. This increase in tax basis may have the effect of reducing the future amounts paid to various tax authorities. The increase in tax basis may also decrease gains (or increase losses) on future dispositions of certain capital assets to the extent tax basis is allocated to those capital assets.
We have a Tax Receivable Agreement that provides for the payment by us to the parties to the Tax Receivable Agreement of 85% of the amount of cash savings, if any, in U.S. federal, state and local income tax or franchise tax that we actually realize as a result of (i) any increase in tax basis in BRP Group’s assets and (ii) tax benefits related to imputed interest deemed arising as a result of payments made under the tax receivable agreement.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we redeemed 1,734,568 LLC Units of BRP on a one-for-one basis for shares of Class A common stock and cancelled the corresponding shares of Class B common stock. We receive an increase in our share of the tax basis in the net assets of BRP due to the interests being redeemed. We have assessed the realizability of the net deferred tax assets and in that analysis have considered the relevant positive and negative evidence available to determine whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. We have recorded a full valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets at BRP Group as of September 30, 2022, which will be maintained until there is sufficient evidence to support the reversal of all or some portion of these allowances.

Operating Activities
The primary sources and uses of cash for operating activities are net income adjusted for non-cash items and changes in assets and liabilities. Net cash provided by operating activities decreased $43.7 million for the first nine months of 2022 as compared to the same period of 2021 driven by a decrease in cash relating to payments of contingent earnout consideration and related party notes payable. Payment of contingent earnout consideration in excess of the liability recognized at the acquisition date of $48.9 million is captured as an operating cash flow during 2022 and is reflective of Partnerships that have outperformed on our platform since the date of Partnership. Cash also decreased from a higher balance in premiums, commissions and fees receivable of $39.0 million resulting from revenue growth and the timing of revenue recognition under direct bill policies in employee benefits for which payment is received monthly through the duration of the year. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in cash from a higher balance in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities of $41.5 million related, in part, to the aforementioned revenue growth and higher premiums receivable balance.
Investing Activities
The primary sources and uses of cash for investing activities relate to cash consideration paid to fund Partnerships and other investments, as well as capital expenditures. Net cash used in investing activities increased $183.9 million for the first nine months of 2022 as compared to the same period of 2021 driven by an increase in cash consideration paid for Partnership activity of $170.9 million due to completing our largest Partnership to date during the second quarter of 2022. In addition, capital expenditures increased $12.2 million as a result of purchases to support our growth and software development projects for infrastructure to support our business, including key customer relationship management software.
Financing Activities
The primary sources and uses of cash for financing activities relate to the issuance of our Class A common stock, borrowings from and repayment to our credit agreements, payment of debt issuance costs, payment of contingent earnout consideration, and other equity transactions. Net cash provided by financing activities decreased $29.0 million for the first nine months of 2022 as compared to the same period of 2021 driven by a decrease in proceeds of $268.3 million from an equity raise completed during 2021 and an increase in payments of contingent earnout consideration up to the amount of purchase price accrual of $46.1 million, offset in part by an increase in net borrowings on our credit facilities of $270.0 million.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
In preparing our financial statements in accordance with GAAP, we are required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and accompanying disclosures. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. These estimates are based on historical experience and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances; although, actual results may differ from these estimates and assumptions. To the extent that there are differences between our estimates and actual results, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows will be affected.
There have been no material changes in our critical accounting policies during the three months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to those disclosed in the Critical Accounting Estimates section under Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 1, 2022.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Please refer to Note 1 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Item 1. Financial Statements of this report for a discussion of recent accounting pronouncements that may impact us.
ITEM 3. QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Market risk is the potential loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as premium amounts, interest rates and equity prices. We are exposed to market risk through our investments and borrowings under the JPM Credit Agreement. We use derivative instruments to mitigate our risk related to the effect of rising interest rates on our cash flows. However, we do not use derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes.
Our invested assets are held primarily as cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash. To a lesser extent, we may also utilize certificates of deposit, U.S. treasury securities and professionally managed short duration fixed income funds. These investments are subject to market risk. The fair values of our invested assets at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 approximated their respective carrying values due to their short-term duration and therefore, such market risk is not considered to be material.

Insurance premium pricing has historically been cyclical, based on the underwriting capacity of the insurance industry and economic conditions. External events, such as terrorist attacks, man-made and natural disasters, can also have significant impacts on the insurance market. We use the terms ‘‘soft market’’ and ‘‘hard market’’ to describe the business cycles experienced by the industry. A soft market is an insurance market characterized by a period of declining premium rates, which can negatively affect commissions earned by insurance agents. A hard market is an insurance market characterized by a period of rising premium rates, which, absent other changes, can positively affect commissions earned by insurance agents.
We do not actively invest or trade in equity securities. In addition, we generally dispose of any significant equity securities held by Partners received in conjunction with an acquisition shortly after the acquisition date.
At September 30, 2022, we had $840.2 million and $527.0 million of borrowings outstanding under the Term Loan B and the Revolving Facility, respectively. These borrowings bear interest on a floating basis tied to either the prime rate or one of various other variable rates as defined in the JPM Credit Agreement. The variable rate currently in effect for the Term Loan B and the Revolving Facility is LIBOR and SOFR, respectively. These borrowings are subject to market risk. For additional information, see “JPM Credit Agreement” under Part II. Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
We have entered into interest rate cap agreements to limit the potential impact of interest rate changes on cash flows. However, one of these agreements expired during March 2022 and three others were sold during May 2022, thereby increasing our overall exposure to rising interest rates. The interest rate cap agreement in place at September 30, 2022 mitigates the interest rate volatility on $300.0 million of debt to a maximum of 1.50% and the remaining $1.1 billion in debt remains subject to interest rate volatility. Taking the interest rate cap agreement into consideration, an increase of 100 basis points on the variable interest rates in effect at September 30, 2022 would increase our annual interest expense for the JPM Credit Agreement by $10.7 million.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, because of the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2022.
Notwithstanding the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting, our management concluded that our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, when read with the notes thereto, present fairly, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with GAAP.
We completed nine Partnerships for an aggregate purchase price of $1.1 billion during the twelve months ended September 30, 2022. Guidance from the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission provides that the staff will not take exception to companies that exclude acquisitions from their assessment of internal control over financial reporting during the first year of an acquisition, and our management has elected to exclude all nine Partnerships from our assessment as of September 30, 2022. The nine Partnerships represent approximately 9% of our consolidated total assets (the calculation excludes the goodwill and intangible assets of those acquired entities as the goodwill and intangible assets were subject to management’s assessment of internal control over financial reporting) and approximately 25% of total revenues as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Except with respect to our ongoing remediation efforts with respect to the aforementioned material weaknesses, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter-ended September 30, 2022 that materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
