NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
Note A — Basis of Financial Statements
The following describes the significant accounting policies of Cannae Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, “we,” “us,” “our,” "Cannae," "CNNE," or the "Company”), which have been followed in preparing the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Description of the Business
We are engaged in actively managing and operating a group of companies and investments, as well as making additional majority and minority equity portfolio investments in businesses, in order to achieve superior financial performance and maximize the value of these assets. Our primary investments as of March 31, 2021 include our minority ownership interests in Dun & Bradstreet Holdings, Inc. ("Dun & Bradstreet" or "D&B"), Ceridian HCM Holding, Inc. ("Ceridian"), Paysafe Limited ("Paysafe"), Optimal Blue Holdco, LLC ("Optimal Blue"), AmeriLife Group, LLC ("AmeriLife") and QOMPLX, Inc. ("QOMPLX"); majority equity ownership stakes in O'Charley's Holdings, LLC ("O'Charley's") and 99 Restaurants Holdings, LLC ("99 Restaurants"); and various other controlled portfolio companies and minority equity and debt investments.
See Note H for further discussion of the businesses comprising our reportable segments.
We conduct our business through our wholly-owned subsidiary Cannae Holdings, LLC ("Cannae LLC"), a Delaware limited liability company. Our board of directors ("Board") oversees the management of the Company, Cannae LLC and its businesses, and the performance of Trasimene Capital Management, LLC (“Trasimene” or our “Manager”).
Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation
The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP") and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X and include the historical accounts as well as wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries of the Company. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. All adjustments made were of a normal, recurring nature. This report should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K (our "Annual Report") for the year ended December 31, 2020.
All intercompany profits, transactions and balances have been eliminated. Our investments in non-majority-owned partnerships and affiliates are accounted for using the equity method. Earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests are recorded on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations relating to majority-owned subsidiaries with the appropriate noncontrolling interest that represents the portion of equity not related to our ownership interest recorded on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets in each period.
Management Estimates
The preparation of these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates made by management include the fair value measurements (Note C). Actual results may differ from estimates.
Recent Developments
Dun & Bradstreet
On January 8, 2021, D&B completed its acquisition of Bisnode Business Information Group AB (the "Bisnode Acquisition"). In connection with the Bisnode Acquisition, D&B issued an additional 6.2 million shares of its common stock, which resulted in a decrease in our ownership interest in D&B from approximately 18.1% to approximately 17.7%.
Alight
On January 25, 2021, Foley Trasimene Acquisition Corp. ("FTAC") entered into a business combination agreement with Alight Solutions ("Alight"), a leading cloud-based provider of integrated digital human capital and business solutions (the "FTAC Alight Business Combination"). Under the terms of the FTAC Alight Business Combination, FTAC will combine with Alight and Alight will become a publicly traded entity under the name “Alight, Inc.” and symbol ALIT. The FTAC Alight Business Combination will be funded with the cash held in trust at FTAC, forward purchase commitments, private investment

in public equity (“PIPE”) commitments and equity of Alight. Completion of the FTAC Alight Business Combination is subject to approval by FTAC stockholders, the effectiveness of a registration statement to be filed with the SEC in connection with the transaction, and other customary closing conditions of SPAC business combinations, including the receipt of certain regulatory approvals. The FTAC Alight Business Combination is expected to close in the second quarter of 2021.
On January 25, 2021, Cannae entered into an agreement to purchase 25,000,000 shares of Alight for $250.0 million as part of a subscription to the PIPE (the "Alight Subscription Agreement"). Upon consummation of the FTAC Alight Business Combination, our aggregate investment in Alight is expected to be $404.5 million, inclusive of Cannae's $150.0 million investment commitment under a forward purchase agreement with FTAC (the "FTAC FPA"), the Alight Subscription Agreement and our previous $4.5 million investment in the sponsor of FTAC, and we expect to receive 44,639,500 shares of common stock of Alight which represents approximately 8.3% of the pro forma outstanding common equity of Alight and 8,026,666 warrants to purchase one share of Alight common stock at $11.50 per share. Alight has agreed to pay us a placement fee of $6.3 million as consideration for our subscription.
Paysafe
On March 30, 2021, Foley Trasimene Acquisition Corp. II ("FTAC II") completed its previously announced merger with Paysafe Limited ("Paysafe"), a leading integrated payments platform (the "FTAC II Paysafe Merger"), in accordance with the agreement and plan of merger dated December 7, 2020. The newly combined company operates as Paysafe and is traded on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") under the symbol PSFE. The FTAC II Paysafe Merger was funded with the cash held in trust at FTAC II, forward purchase commitments, PIPE commitments and equity of Paysafe.
In conjunction with the FTAC II Paysafe Merger, Cannae funded its previously announced investments in Paysafe of (a) $350 million as part of our subscription to the PIPE and (b) $150 million as part of our forward purchase agreement with FTAC II entered into on July 31, 2020. For Cannae’s total investment in Paysafe of $504.7 million, Cannae received 54,294,395 common shares and 8,134,067 warrants of Paysafe (the "Paysafe Warrants"). As of March 31, 2021, Cannae, directly and indirectly through our 15% interest in the sponsor of FTAC II, holds approximately 54 million shares or 7.5% of the outstanding common equity of Paysafe. In connection with the investment in the PIPE, Paysafe paid Cannae a fee of $5.6 million as described in the agreement and plan of merger dated December 7, 2020 which was deducted from the basis of our investment.
We account for our investment in common equity of Paysafe as an equity method investment and the Paysafe Warrants as a derivative instrument. See Note C and D for further discussion of our accounting for our investment in common equity of Paysafe. The Paysafe Warrants are included in Other long-term investments and non-current assets on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2021.
Forward Purchases of Equity of Special Purpose Acquisition Companies
On February 25, 2021, we entered into a forward purchase agreement (the "Austerlitz I FPA") with Austerlitz Acquisition Corp. I (“Austerlitz I”), a special purpose acquisition company ("SPAC") whose business purpose is to effect a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities (the "Austerlitz I Initial Business Combination"). Austerlitz is co-sponsored by entities affiliated with William P. Foley II. Under the Austerlitz I FPA, we will purchase an aggregate of 5,000,000 shares of Austerlitz I’s Class A common stock, plus an aggregate of 1,250,000 redeemable warrants to purchase one share of Austerlitz I's Class A common stock at $11.50 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $50.0 million in a private placement to occur concurrently with the closing of the Austerlitz I Initial Business Combination. Additionally, Cannae invested $1.6 million in the sponsor of Austerlitz I for a 10% indirect economic interest in the founder shares and warrants held by the sponsor. The Austerlitz I FPA is contingent upon the closing of the Austerlitz I Initial Business Combination.
On February 25, 2021, we entered into a forward purchase agreement (the "Austerlitz II FPA") with Austerlitz Acquisition Corp. II (“Austerlitz II”), a SPAC whose business purpose is to effect a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities (the "Austerlitz II Initial Business Combination"). Austerlitz II is co-sponsored by entities affiliated with the chairman of our Board of Directors ("Board"), William P. Foley II. Under the Austerlitz II FPA, we will purchase an aggregate of 12,500,000 shares of Austerlitz II’s Class A common stock, plus an aggregate of 3,125,000 redeemable warrants to purchase one share of Austerlitz II's Class A common stock at $11.50 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $125.0 million in a private placement to occur concurrently with the closing of the Austerlitz II Initial Business Combination. Additionally, Cannae directly invested $29.6 million for a 20% indirect economic interest in the founder shares held by the sponsor and a direct interest in 19,733,333 private placement warrants of Austerlitz II (the "Austerlitz II Warrants") at the initial public offering. The Austerlitz II FPA is contingent upon the closing of the Austerlitz II Initial Business Combination.

QOMPLX
On March 1, 2021, Tailwind Acquisition Corp. ("Tailwind") entered into a business combination agreement to merge with QOMPLX (the "Tailwind QOMPLX Merger"). Completion of the Tailwind QOMPLX Merger is expected to occur in mid-2021, subject to approval by Tailwind’s stockholders and the satisfaction or waiver of other customary closing conditions identified in the business combination agreement entered into by QOMPLX and Tailwind Acquisition Corp.
In conjunction with the Tailwind QOMPLX Merger, Cannae entered into an agreement to purchase 4.6 million shares of common stock of the combined company for $37.5 million as part of a subscription to the PIPE (the "Tailwind Subscription Agreement" and together with the Alight Subscription Agreement, the "Subscription Agreements"). Additionally, Cannae funded a convertible note for $12.5 million, of which the principal and accrued interest thereon will convert into common shares of the combined company upon consummation of the Tailwind QOMPLX Merger. Upon consummation of the Tailwind QOMPLX Merger, our aggregate investment in QOMPLX is expected to be $80.0 million, inclusive of Cannae's historical investment in preferred equity of QOMPLX, and we expect to receive approximately 23.7 million shares of common stock of QOMPLX which is expected to represent an approximate 16% ownership interest in QOMPLX.
See Note C for further discussion of our accounting for the Tailwind Subscription Agreement.
Restaurant Group
In March 2021, we received preliminary, non-binding letters of intent to sell materially all of the assets and liabilities of Legendary Baking Holdings I, LLC ("Legendary Baking") and VIBSQ Holdco, LLC ("VIBSQ") and their subsidiaries (the "LOIs"). We currently own 100% of Legendary Baking and VIBSQ. The transactions contemplated by the LOIs are subject to the completion of due diligence by the buyers, receipt of regulatory approvals and other customary conditions. We expect to consummate the sale of Legendary Baking and VIBSQ in fiscal year 2021.
See Note J for further discussion.
Other Developments
On March 1, 2021, we announced that our Board authorized a -year stock repurchase program, effective February 26, 2021, under which the Company may repurchase up to 10 million shares of its common stock. Purchases may be made from time to time in the open market at prevailing prices or in privately negotiated transactions through February 26, 2024. The repurchase program does not obligate the Company to acquire any specific number of shares and may be suspended or terminated at any time.
On March 31, 2021, we closed on a $32.0 million investment in Sightline Payments LLC ("Sightline"), a fintech company that enables cashless, mobile and omni-channel payment solutions for the gaming, lottery, sports betting, entertainment and hospitality businesses. The investment represents 5.1% of the current outstanding membership interests in Sightline and is accounted for as an equity method investment. See Note C for further discussion of the Company's accounting for investments in unconsolidated affiliates.
During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we received distributions of $280.6 million from our joint venture (the "Senator JV") with affiliates of Senator Investment Group, LP. We have no further material ownership interest in the Senator JV.
Related Party Transactions
During the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, we incurred $7.6 million and $4.2 million, respectively, of management fee expenses payable to our Manager, and in the three months ended March 31, 2021, we incurred $17.1 million of carried interest expense related to monetizations of the Company's investments which are recorded in Other operating expenses on our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.
Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share, as presented on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations, is computed by dividing net earnings available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.
In periods when earnings are positive, diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing net earnings available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the impact of assumed conversions of potentially dilutive securities. For periods when we recognize a net loss, diluted loss per share is equal to basic loss per share

CANNAE HOLDINGS, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) — continued
as the impact of assumed conversions of potentially dilutive securities is considered to be antidilutive. We have granted certain shares of restricted stock that have been treated as common share equivalents for purposes of calculating diluted earnings per share for periods in which positive earnings have been reported.
Instruments that provide the ability to purchase shares of our common stock that are antidilutive are excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share. For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, there were no antidilutive shares of restricted stock outstanding which were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share.
Income Tax
Our effective tax rate was 17.7% and 19.7% in the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The decrease in the effective tax rate in the three-month period ended March 31, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020 was primarily attributable to the increased impact of equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates on pretax losses in the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to the impact of equity in losses of unconsolidated affiliates on pretax earnings in the same period in 2020.
We have a Deferred tax liability of $244.8 million as of March 31, 2021 and of $325.3 million as of December 31, 2020. The $80.5 million change in deferred taxes in the three months ended March 31, 2021 is primarily attributable to the tax impact of the fair value markdowns in Ceridian and the Forward Purchase Agreements.
Restricted Cash
Our Restaurant Group is required to hold cash collateralizing its outstanding letters of credit. Included in Cash and cash equivalents on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 is $12.5 million of such restricted cash.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
We have completed our evaluation of the recently issued accounting pronouncements and we did not identify any that are expected to, if currently adopted, have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Note C — Fair Value Measurements
The fair value hierarchy established by the accounting standards on fair value measurements includes three levels, which are based on the priority of the inputs to the valuation technique. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). If the inputs used to measure the financial instruments fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument. Financial assets and liabilities that are recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheets are categorized based on the inputs to the valuation techniques as follows:
Level 1. Financial assets and liabilities whose values are based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in an active market that we have the ability to access.
Level 2. Financial assets and liabilities whose values are based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or model inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
Level 3. Financial assets and liabilities whose values are based on model inputs that are unobservable.

Fixed Maturity Securities
Our Level 3 fair value measurement for our fixed maturity securities available for sale are provided by a single third-party pricing service. Depending on security specific characteristics, either an income or a contingent claims approach was utilized in determining fair value of our Level 3 fixed-maturity securities available for sale. Discount rates are the primary unobservable inputs utilized for the securities valued using an income approach. The discount rates used are based on company-specific risk premiums, public company comparable securities, and leveraged loan indices. The discount rates used in our determination of the fair value of our Level 3 fixed-maturity securities available for sale varies by security type and ranged from 7.0% to 17.5% as of March 31, 2021 and a weighted average based on relative fair value of the underlying securities of 12.1%. Based on the total fair value of our Level 3 fixed-maturity securities available for sale as of March 31, 2021, changes in the discount rate utilized will not result in a fair value significantly different than the amount recorded.
Equity Securities
On June 5, 2020, we entered into a forward purchase agreement (the "Trebia FPA" and together with the FTAC FPA, Austerlitz I FPA, and the Austerlitz II FPA, the "Forward Purchase Agreements") with Trebia Acquisition Corp. (“Trebia”), a SPAC incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset

acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities (the "Trebia Initial Business Combination"). Trebia is co-sponsored by entities affiliated with the chairman and a member of our Board, William P. Foley II and Frank R. Martire, respectively. Under the Trebia FPA, we will purchase an aggregate of 7,500,000 Class A ordinary shares of Trebia, plus an aggregate of 2,500,000 redeemable warrants to purchase one Class A ordinary share of Trebia at $11.50 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $75.0 million in a private placement to occur concurrently with the closing of the Trebia Initial Business Combination. The forward purchase is contingent upon the closing of the Trebia Initial Business Combination.
The Forward Purchase Agreements and the Subscription Agreements are accounted for at fair value pursuant to ASC Topic 321 Investment - Equity Securities. We utilized a Monte Carlo Simulation in determining the fair value of these agreements, which is considered to be a Level 3 fair value measurement. The Monte Carlo Simulation model simulates the current security price to a simulated date for the consummation of the underlying initial business combination based on probabilities of consummation. The values of the agreements are then calculated as the difference between the future simulated price and the fixed purchase prices for the underlying securities to be purchased pursuant to the Forward Purchase Agreements and the Subscription Agreements. The primary unobservable input utilized in determining the fair value of the Forward Purchase Agreements and Subscription Agreements is the probability of consummation of the business combinations of each underlying transaction. The probabilities assigned to the consummation of the Austerlitz I Initial Business Combination, Austerlitz II Initial Business Combination, and the Trebia Initial Business Combination was 90% and the probability assigned to the consummation of the FTAC Alight Business Combination and the Tailwind QOMPLX Merger was 95%. Determination of such probabilities is based on a hybrid approach of both observed success rates of business combinations for SPACs and the sponsors of FTAC, Trebia, Austerlitz I, and Austerlitz II's track record for consummating similar transactions. The announced FTAC Alight Merger and Tailwind QOMPLX Merger were also considered in our determination of the probabilities. Based on the total fair value of the Forward Purchase Agreements and Subscription Agreements as of March 31, 2021, changes in the probabilities utilized will not result in a change in fair value that is significant or material to the Company's financial position or results of operations.
The Austerlitz II Warrants are accounted for at fair value pursuant to ASC Topic 321. We utilized a modified Black-Scholes option pricing formula in determining the fair value of the Austerlitz II Warrants, which is considered to be a Level 3 fair value measurement. The value is calculated based on the common stock price of Austerlitz II at the date of announcement as that is the underlying security. The primary unobservable inputs utilized in determining the fair value of the warrants is the 90% probability of success assigned to the consummation of the Austerlitz II Initial Business Combination (further discussed above).

As of March 31, 2021, we hold less than 20% of the outstanding common equity of Dun & Bradstreet but continue to account for our investment under the equity method because we continue to exert significant influence through our 17.7% ownership, because certain of our senior management and directors serve on D&B's board of directors, and because we are party to an agreement with other of its equity sponsors, which collectively own greater than 50% of the outstanding voting equity of Dun & Bradstreet, pursuant to which we have agreed to collectively vote together on all matters related to the election of directors to the Dun & Bradstreet board of directors for a period of three years.
Effective January 1, 2021, D&B made a change in accounting principle related to removal of lag accounting for its international operations which they believe to be preferable. The change in accounting policy was applied retrospectively by D&B.

Paysafe
On March 30, 2021, we closed on our $500.0 million investment in Paysafe. We account for our investment in Paysafe as an equity method investment.
Based on quoted market prices, the aggregate value of our direct and indirect ownership of Paysafe common stock was $729.6 million as of March 31, 2021.
As of March 31, 2021, we hold less than 20% of the outstanding common equity of Paysafe but we account for our investment under the equity method because we continue to exert significant influence through our 7.5% ownership, because certain of our senior management and directors serve on Paysafe's board of directors, and because we are party to an agreement with other of its equity investors pursuant to which we have the ability to appoint or be consulted on the election of the majority of the total directors of Paysafe.
As of March 31, 2021, there is a $567.8 million difference between the amount of our recorded direct investment in Paysafe and the amount of the Company's ratable portion of the underlying equity in net assets of Paysafe. We are currently evaluating the accounting treatment of such difference.
Because of the timing of the closing of the transaction, there is no equity in earnings or loss of Paysafe included in the Company's results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Preliminary summarized balance sheet information for Paysafe for the relevant dates and time periods included in Investments in unconsolidated affiliates in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets is presented below.

The cost basis of fixed maturity securities available for sale includes an adjustment for amortized premium or discount and other-than-temporary-impairment recognized in earnings since the date of purchase.
As of March 31, 2021, $35.3 million of the fixed maturity securities in our investment portfolio had a maturity of less than one year and $0.5 million had a maturity of greater than one year, but less than five years. Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because certain borrowers have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.
During the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, we incurred no other-than-temporary impairment charges relating to corporate debt securities.
As of March 31, 2021, we held corporate debt securities with a fair value of $17.0 million for which an other-than-temporary impairment had been previously recognized. It is possible that future events may lead us to recognize potential future impairment losses related to our investment portfolio. Unanticipated future events may lead us to dispose of certain investment holdings and recognize the effects of any market movements in our results of operations.
Equity Security Investments Without Readily Determinable Fair Values
We account for our investment in preferred equity of QOMPLX at cost less impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly market transactions. As of March 31, 2021, we have $30.0 million recorded for our investment in the equity of QOMPLX, which is included in Other long term investments and noncurrent assets on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. We have not recorded any upward or downward adjustments to our investment in QOMPLX.
Note E. Variable Interest Entities
The Company, in the normal course of business, engages in certain activities that involve variable interest entities ("VIEs"), which are legal entities in which a group of equity investors individually lack any of the characteristics of a controlling interest. The primary beneficiary of a VIE is generally the enterprise that has both the power to direct the activities most significant to the economic performance of the VIE and the obligation to absorb losses or receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company evaluates its interest in certain entities to determine if these entities meet the definition of a VIE and whether the Company is the primary beneficiary and should consolidate the entity based on the variable interests it held both at inception and when there is a change in circumstances that requires a reconsideration. If the Company is determined to be the primary beneficiary of a VIE, it must account for the VIE as a consolidated subsidiary. If the Company is determined not to be the primary beneficiary of a VIE but holds a variable interest in the entity, such variable interests are accounted for under accounting standards as deemed appropriate. As of and for the periods ended March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we are not the primary beneficiary of any VIEs.

Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates
We hold variable interests in certain unconsolidated affiliates, which are primarily comprised of our investments in the sponsors of FTAC, Trebia, Austerlitz I and Austerlitz II; and funds that hold minority ownership interests primarily in healthcare-related entities. Cannae does not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of these unconsolidated affiliates; therefore, we are not the primary beneficiary.
The principal risk to which these investments and funds are exposed is the credit risk of the underlying investees. We do not provide any implicit or explicit liquidity guarantees or principal value guarantees to these VIEs. The assets are included in Investments in unconsolidated affiliates on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and accounted for under the equity method of accounting.
See Note D for further discussion of our accounting for investments in unconsolidated affiliates.
Forward Purchase Agreements
In addition to the Forward Purchase Agreements and Subscription Agreements, the Company made investments in the sponsors of FTAC, Trebia, Austerlitz I and Austerlitz II, which are considered VIEs for which we are not the primary beneficiary and are included in Investments in unconsolidated affiliates. The assets represented by the Forward Purchase Agreements and Subscription Agreements are accounted for as investments in equity securities pursuant to ASC 321 and are included in Equity securities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2021.

2020 Margin Facility
On November 30, 2020, Cannae Funding C, LLC (“Borrower 1”), an indirect wholly-owned special purpose subsidiary of the “Company, and Cannae Funding D, LLC (“Borrower 2” and, together with Borrower 1, the “Borrowers”), an indirect wholly-owned special purpose subsidiary of the Company, entered into a Margin Loan Agreement (the “2020 Margin Facility”) with the lenders from time to time party thereto and Royal Bank of Canada. The Company concurrently entered into a Guaranty (the “Guaranty Agreement”) for the benefit of each of the lenders to the 2020 Margin Facility pro rata to their loan commitments, pursuant to which the Company absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guaranteed all of the Borrowers’ obligations under the 2020 Margin Facility for a period of up to one year after the later of (i) the conditions precedent to the obligations of the lenders under the Loan Agreement being met (the date when such conditions have been met, the “Closing Date”) or (ii) as relevant, additional collateral or additional loan commitments being provided. Under the 2020 Margin Facility, the Borrowers may initially borrow up to $100.0 million in revolving loans and, subject to certain terms and conditions, may enter into an amendment to the 2020 Margin Facility to borrow up to $500.0 million in revolving loans (including the initial revolving loans) from the same initial lender and/or additional lenders on substantially identical terms and conditions as the initial revolving loans. The 2020 Margin Facility matures on the 36-month anniversary of the Closing Date. All outstanding amounts under the 2020 Margin Facility bear interest quarterly at a rate per annum equal to a three-month LIBOR rate plus an applicable margin. Interest will be payable in kind unless the Borrowers elect to pay interest in cash or a cumulative cap is exceeded. The Borrowers’ obligations under the 2020 Margin Facility will be secured by a first priority lien on (i) 6,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Ceridian Common Stock”), of Ceridian, which the Company contributed to Borrower 1, and (ii) 19,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “DNB Common Stock”), of D&B, which the Company contributed to Borrower 2.

The 2020 Margin Facility requires the Borrowers to maintain a certain loan-to-value ratio (based on the value of Ceridian Common Stock and DNB Common Stock). In the event the Borrowers fail to maintain such loan-to-value ratio, the Borrowers must post additional cash collateral under the Loan Agreement and/or elect to repay a portion of the revolving loans thereunder, or sell the Ceridian Common Stock and/or DNB Common Stock and use the proceeds from such sale to prepay a portion of the revolving loans thereunder.
As of March 31, 2021, there was no outstanding balance and $100.0 million of capacity under the 2020 Margin Facility with an option to increase the capacity to $500.0 million upon amendment.

Legal Contingencies
In the ordinary course of business, we are involved in various pending and threatened litigation and regulatory matters related to our operations, some of which include claims for punitive or exemplary damages. Our ordinary course litigation includes purported class action lawsuits, which make allegations related to various aspects of our business. From time to time, we also receive requests for information from various state and federal regulatory authorities, some of which take the form of civil investigative demands or subpoenas. Some of these regulatory inquiries may result in the assessment of fines for violations of regulations or settlements with such authorities requiring a variety of remedies. We believe that no actions, other than those discussed below, if any, depart from customary litigation or regulatory inquiries incidental to our business.

Our Restaurant Group companies are a defendant from time to time in various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, including claims relating to injury or wrongful death under “dram shop” laws that allow a person to sue us based on any injury caused by an intoxicated person who was wrongfully served alcoholic beverages at one of the restaurants; individual and purported class or collective action claims alleging violation of federal and state employment, franchise and other laws; and claims from guests or employees alleging illness, injury or other food quality, health or operational concerns. Our Restaurant Group companies are also subject to compliance with extensive government laws and regulations related to employment practices and policies and the manufacture, preparation, and sale of food and alcohol. We may also become subject to lawsuits and other proceedings, as well as card network fines and penalties, arising out of the actual or alleged theft of our customers' credit or debit card information.
We review lawsuits and other legal and regulatory matters (collectively “legal proceedings”) on an ongoing basis when making accrual and disclosure decisions. When assessing reasonably possible and probable outcomes, management bases its decision on its assessment of the ultimate outcome assuming all appeals have been exhausted. For legal proceedings in which it has been determined that a loss is both probable and reasonably estimable, a liability based on known facts that represents our best estimate is recorded. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, our accruals for settlements of legal proceedings was not considered material. Actual losses may materially differ from the amounts recorded and the ultimate outcome of our pending legal proceedings is generally not yet determinable. While some of these matters could be material to our operating results or cash flows for any particular period in the event of an unfavorable outcome, at present, we do not believe that the ultimate resolution of currently pending legal proceedings, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
On September 23, 2020, a stockholder derivative lawsuit styled Oklahoma Firefighters Pension & Retirement System, derivatively on behalf of Cannae Holdings, Inc. v. William P. Foley, II, et al., was filed in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware against the Company, certain Board members and officers of the Company, and the Manager, alleging breach of fiduciary duties relating to the Company’s Management Services Agreement. The plaintiff further alleges the Board breached their fiduciary duties by approving bonuses in connection with the initial public offering of Ceridian and the approval of an Investment Success Incentive Plan in August 2018. Along with the Complaint, the plaintiff filed a motion for partial summary judgment as to the count seeking to void the Management Services Agreement. On January 27, 2021, the Company entered into an amendment to the Management Services Agreement and plaintiff withdrew its motion for partial summary judgment as moot. On February 1, 2021, the court ordered the plaintiff's summary judgment motion withdrawn and dismissed the related count of the plaintiff's complaint. On February 18, 2021, our Board formed a Special Litigation Committee (the "SLC") consisting of two of the Board’s Directors, and has authorized the SLC, among other things, to investigate and evaluate the claims and allegations asserted in the lawsuit. The Board has also given the SLC the sole authority and power to consider and determine whether or not prosecution of the claims asserted in the lawsuit is in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders, and what action the Company should take with respect to the lawsuit. On March 9, 2021, the Court entered a stipulated Order staying the action for six months to allow the SLC to investigate, review, and evaluate the facts, circumstances, and claims asserted in or relating to the action and to determine the Company’s response thereto. The defendants will contest the remaining claims in the action vigorously.
Unconditional Purchase Obligations
We have certain unconditional purchase obligations, primarily in our Restaurant Group segment. These purchase obligations are with various vendors and are primarily related to food and beverage obligations with fixed commitments in regards to the time period of the contract and the quantities purchased with annual price adjustments that can fluctuate.

Note H — Segment Information
Summarized financial information concerning our reportable segments is shown in the following tables.
On March 30, 2021, we closed on our investment in Paysafe. We account for our investment in Paysafe as an equity method investment. Because we closed on our investment in Paysafe at the end of the first quarter of 2021, there is no equity in earnings or loss of Paysafe included in our results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2021. We expect our chief operating decision maker will review the full financial results of Paysafe for purposes of assessing performance and allocating resources of the Company. Thus, we expect to include the full financial results of Paysafe in the table below in the second quarter of 2021 and present an elimination of such results in a manner similar to Dun & Bradstreet as described below.
Beginning in the three months ended March 31, 2021, AmeriLife exceeded certain of the quantitative thresholds prescribed by ASC 280 Segment Reporting and we began considering AmeriLife a reportable segment. We made our initial investment in AmeriLife in March 18, 2020. We account for our investment in AmeriLife as an equity method investment and report our equity in earnings or loss of AmeriLife on a three-month lag. Accordingly, there is no equity in earnings or loss of AmeriLife included in our results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this "Quarterly Report") that are not purely historical are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), including statements regarding our expectations, hopes, intentions or strategies regarding the future. All forward-looking statements included in this document are based on information available to us on the date hereof, and we assume no obligation to update any such forward-looking statements. It is important to note that our actual results could vary materially from those forward-looking statements contained herein due to many factors, including, but not limited to: changes in general economic, business and political conditions, including changes in the financial markets and changes in conditions resulting from the outbreak of a pandemic such as the novel coronavirus COVID-19 ("COVID-19"); the overall impact of the outbreak of COVID-19 and measures to curb its spread, including the effect of governmental or voluntary mitigation measures such as business shutdowns, social distancing, and stay-at-home orders; our potential inability to find suitable acquisition candidates, acquisitions in lines of business that will not necessarily be limited to our traditional areas of focus, or difficulties in integrating acquisitions; significant competition that our operating subsidiaries face; risks associated with our Split-Off from Fidelity National Financial, Inc., including the Investment Company Act of 1940; risks related to our Externalization; and other risks detailed in the “Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information,” “Risk Factors” and other sections of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 (our "Annual Report") and other filings with the SEC.
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report.
Overview
For a description of our business, including descriptions of segments and recent business developments, see the discussion under Basis of Financial Statements in Note A to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report, which is incorporated by reference into this Part I, Item 2.
Business Trends and Conditions
Dun & Bradstreet. Businesses rely on business-to-business data and analytics providers to extract data-driven insights and make better decisions. For example, in commercial lending and trade credit, the scarcity of readily available credit history makes the extension of credit a time-consuming and imprecise process. In procurement, businesses face increasingly complex and global supply chains, making the assessment of compliance and viability of all suppliers prohibitively difficult and expensive if not conducted effectively. In sales and marketing, businesses have benefited from the proliferation of customer relationship management, Marketing Automation and Sales Acceleration tools designed to help identify, track and improve both customer management and prospecting growth activities. While these tools are helping to fill sales funnels and improve the progression of opportunities, key challenges remain in sales force productivity, effective client segmentation and marketing campaign activation. Common stumbling blocks include incorrect, or outdated, contact information, duplicated or inaccurate firmographic data and a lack of synchronization between the various platforms in the marketing technology ecosystem.
D&B helps its clients solve these mission critical business problems. D&B believes the total addressable market (‘‘TAM’’) in which it operates is large, growing and significantly underpenetrated. D&B participates in the big data and analytics software market, as defined by Interactive Data Corporation, or IDC, which represents a collection of software markets that functionally address decision support and decision automation. This market includes business intelligence and analytics tools, analytic data management and integration platforms and analytics and performance management applications. Within the broader market of data and analytics solutions, D&B serves a number of different markets, including the commercial credit data, sales and marketing data and Governance, Risk and Compliance ("GRC") markets to provide clients with decisioning support and automation. As D&B continues to drive innovation in its solutions, it expects to address a greater portion of this TAM as new use cases for its data assets and analytical capabilities are introduced.
D&B believes there are several key trends in the global macroeconomic environment generating additional growth in D&B's TAM and increasing the demand for its solutions, including growing recognition by business of the value of analytics and data-informed business decisioning, growth in data creation and applications driven by the proliferation of new technologies with new data sets and applications, advances in analytical capabilities that are unlocking the value of data, and heightened compliance requirements in the regulatory environment for business driven by the growth of new technologies.
Restaurant Group. The restaurant industry is highly competitive and is often affected by changes in consumer tastes and discretionary spending patterns; changes in general economic conditions; public safety conditions or concerns; demographic trends; weather conditions; the cost of food products, labor, energy and other operating costs; and governmental regulations. Higher labor costs due to state and local minimum wage increases and shopping pattern shifts to e-commerce and “ready to eat” grocery and convenience stores have had a negative impact on restaurant performance, particularly in the casual and family dining restaurants in which the company operates.
28
The restaurant industry is also characterized by high capital investments for new restaurants and relatively high fixed or semi-variable restaurant operating expenses. Because of the high fixed and semi-variable expenses, changes in sales in existing restaurants are generally expected to significantly affect restaurant profitability because many restaurant costs and expenses are not expected to change at the same rate as sales. The most significant commodities that may affect our cost of food and beverage are beef, seafood, poultry, and dairy, which accounted for approximately half of our overall cost of food and beverage in the past. Generally, temporary increases in these costs are not passed on to guests; however, in the past, we have adjusted menu prices to compensate for increased costs of a more permanent nature.
Average weekly sales per restaurant are typically higher in the first and fourth quarters than in other quarters, and we typically generate a disproportionate share of our earnings from operations in the first and fourth quarters. Holidays, severe weather and other disruptive conditions may impact sales volumes seasonally in some operating regions.
Our revenues in future periods will continue to be subject to these and other factors that are beyond our control and, as a result, are likely to fluctuate.
COVID-19. In March 2020, the outbreak of COVID-19 was declared a national health emergency in the United States and worldwide. As a result of the unprecedented social restrictions related to COVID-19, our Restaurant Group brands experienced a significant reduction in guest counts beginning in the last two weeks of March 2020 and continuing through the end of the year. In response to the outbreak and these changing conditions, our Restaurant Group brands closed the dining rooms in substantially all of our restaurants in late March 2020 with substantially all remaining closed to dine in customers through early May 2020. During such time, most of our restaurants were solely operating to-go and delivery services in the jurisdictions where government regulations permit restaurants to continue to operate and where the guest demand made such operations sustainable. We temporarily closed certain restaurants, modified work hours for our Restaurant Group employees and identified and implemented cost savings measures throughout our Restaurant Group operations.
Timing of reopening stores and resulting guest traffic has varied by jurisdiction. In the second half of 2020, our Restaurant Group experienced a gradual increase in guest traffic and revenues compared to the first half of 2020; however, the volume of customers visiting our stores remained below our historical levels through December 31, 2020. We experienced an increase in revenues from to-go and delivery sales from historical experience; however, comparable store sales across all of our restaurant brands remained depressed compared to previous years.
Coinciding with the first available vaccines for COVID-19 in December 2020, capacity restrictions on dining rooms began to ease in most jurisdictions in which our Restaurant Group operates. Furthermore, the U.S. Treasury provided a new round of stimulus through direct payments to U.S. citizens. Through the three months ended March 31, 2021, we are still operating a limited number of restaurants with restricted capacity. Uncertainty remains regarding the continued rate of immunization in the public, timing of an economic recovery, and changed guest decision-making with regard to dining in restaurants.
The COVID-19 outbreak and these responses have affected and may continue to adversely affect our Restaurant Group brands' guest traffic, sales and operating costs. See further discussion of the impact of COVID-19 on our Restaurant Group in the Results of Operations subsection below.

Other operating expenses include rent, professional fees, advertising costs, travel expenses and impairments of operating assets.
Depreciation and amortization expense consists of our depreciation related to investments in property and equipment as well as amortization of intangible assets.
The change in expenses from our segments is discussed in further detail at the segment level below.
Income tax (benefit) was $62.0 million and income tax expense was $169.4 million in the three-month periods ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Our effective tax rate was 17.7% and 19.7% in the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Our effective tax rate fluctuates depending on our estimate of ultimate income tax liability and changes in the characteristics of net earnings, such as the weighting of operating income versus investment income or earnings of unconsolidated affiliates.

Total revenues for the Restaurant group segment decreased $2.6 million, or 1.5%, in the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to the corresponding periods in 2020. The decrease was primarily driven by: (1) an overall decrease in comparable store sales (discussed in further detail below) driven by continued recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic and the related social restrictions imposed by state and local governments beginning in March 2020, which resulted in the closing of dining rooms for substantially all of our restaurants beginning in late March 2020 and (2) the closing or sale of company-owned restaurants primarily associated with our O'Charley's, Village Inn, and Baker's Square concepts subsequent to the prior year periods. The decrease was partially offset by increased revenue related to the reconsolidation of Legendary Baking and VIBSQ beginning October 2, 2020 as part of their emergence from bankruptcy.
Revenue of $20.5 million was recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2020 associated with stores closed subsequent to March 31, 2020. Revenue associated with our Blue Ribbon brands was $19.6 million and $17.8 million in the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
Comparable Store Sales. One method we use in evaluating the performance of our restaurants is to compare sales results for restaurants period over period. A new restaurant is included in our comparable store sales figures starting in the first period following the restaurant's first seventy-eight weeks of operations. Changes in comparable store sales reflect changes in sales for the comparable store group of restaurants over a specified period of time. This measure highlights the performance of existing restaurants, as the impact of new restaurant openings is excluded. Comparable store sales for our O'Charley's brand increased by 8.6%. The increase is attributable to the closure of underperforming stores and the impact of COVID-19 on sales in March 2020. Comparable store sales for our 99 Restaurants, Village Inn, and Baker's Square brands decreased 7.7%, 12.5%, and 31.5% respectively, in the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to the comparable periods in 2020. The decrease is primarily attributable to the continued impact of COVID-19 for the full quarter ended March 31, 2021 compared to an impact of approximately two weeks for the quarter ended March 31, 2020. The decrease was partially offset by an overall increase in the average guest check in the 2021 period compared to the corresponding 2020 period.
Cost of restaurant revenue decreased directionally consistent with Restaurant revenues. Cost of restaurant revenue as a percentage of restaurant revenue was 88.3% and 90.1% in the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The decrease in cost of restaurant revenue as a percentage of restaurant revenue in the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to the comparable period in 2020 is primarily attributable to improvements in overall labor costs resulting from a gradual return of the workforce during the recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, partially offset by increased costs of food and supplies.
Other operating expense decreased $8.5 million, or 45.9%, in the three months ended March 31, 2021 from the corresponding period in 2020. The decrease is primarily attributable to the impairment of assets of $6.8 million in the three
32
months ended March 31, 2020 along with a decrease in spending on advertising at O'Charley's and 99 Restaurants in the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to the comparable period in 2020.
Recognized gains and losses, net for the three months ended March 31, 2020 includes a gain of $26.5 million as a result of the deconsolidation of Blue Ribbon on January 27, 2020 and an other-than-temporary impairment loss on our recorded investment in Blue Ribbon of $18.6 million.
Loss before income taxes decreased by $12.9 million, or 61.7%, in the three months ended March 31, 2021 from the corresponding periods in 2020. The decrease in loss was primarily attributable to the factors discussed above.

On March 18, 2020, we closed on our $125.0 million investment in the AmeriLife Joint Venture. Summarized financial information for AmeriLife for the relevant dates and time periods included in Investments in unconsolidated affiliates and Equity in earnings (losses) of unconsolidated affiliates in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and Statements of Operations, respectively, is presented below. We account for our investment in AmeriLife as an equity method investment and report our equity in earnings or loss of AmeriLife on a three-month lag. Accordingly, there is no equity in earning or loss of AmeriLife included in the Company's results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and our net earnings for the three months ended March 31, 2021 includes our equity in AmeriLife’s losses for the period from September 30, 2020 through December 31, 2020.

Personnel costs decreased $16.9 million in the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to the corresponding period in 2020. The decrease was primarily driven by $16.8 million in investment success bonuses paid in the 2020 period related to our sales of shares of Ceridian paid in 2020.
Other operating expenses increased by $20.9 million in the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to the corresponding period in 2020. The increase was primarily driven by $17.1 million of carried interest expense incurred with our Manager related to distributions received by the Company from the Senator JV.
Recognized (losses) gains, net, decreased $1,220.0 million in the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to the corresponding period in 2020. The decrease is primarily attributable to a loss of $312.1 million on our equity securities of Ceridian in the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to a gain of $223.1 million on the sale of a portion of our
34
holdings of Ceridian stock in February 2020 and a gain of $684.9 million on our change in accounting for our investment in Ceridian in the 2020 period. See Note D for further information on recognized gains on equity securities.
(Loss) earnings before income taxes decreased $1,222.8 million in the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to the corresponding period in 2020. The decreased earnings was primarily attributable to the factors noted above.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash Requirements. Our current cash requirements include personnel costs, operating expenses, taxes, payments of interest and principal on our debt, capital expenditures, and business acquisitions. There are no restrictions on our retained earnings regarding our ability to pay dividends to stockholders, although there are limits on the ability of certain subsidiaries to pay dividends to us, as a result of provisions in certain debt agreements. The declaration of any future dividends is at the discretion of our Board of Directors. Additional uses of cash flow are expected to include additional investments, business acquisitions or stock repurchases.
As of March 31, 2021, we had cash and cash equivalents of $439.7 million, of which $387.2 million was cash held by the corporate holding company, and $200.0 million of capacity under our existing holding company credit facilities with the ability to add an additional $400.0 million of borrowing capacity by amending our 2020 Margin Facility.
We continually assess our capital allocation strategy, including decisions relating to reducing debt, repurchasing our stock, and/or conserving cash. We believe that all anticipated cash requirements for current operations will be met from internally generated funds, cash dividends from subsidiaries, cash generated by investment securities, potential sales of non-strategic assets, and borrowings on existing credit facilities. Our short-term and long-term liquidity requirements are monitored regularly to ensure that we can meet our cash requirements. We forecast the needs of all of our subsidiaries and periodically review their short-term and long-term projected sources and uses of funds, as well as the asset, liability, investment and cash flow assumptions underlying such forecasts.
We are focused on evaluating our assets and investments as potential vehicles for creating liquidity. Our intent is to use that liquidity for general corporate purposes, including future investments, potentially reducing debt, repurchasing shares of our stock, other strategic initiatives and/or conserving cash.
Operating Cash Flow. Our cash flows provided by (used in) operations for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 totaled $6.0 million and $(34.3) million, respectively. The increase in cash provided by (decrease in cash used in) operations of $40.3 million is primarily attributable to the timing of payment and receipt of working capital assets and liabilities.
Investing Cash Flows. Our cash flows (used in) provided by investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 were $(282.8) million and $31.3 million, respectively. The decrease in cash provided by (increase in cash used in) investing activities of $314.1 million in the 2021 period from the 2020 period is primarily attributable to a net increase in new and additional investments in unconsolidated affiliates of 303.3 million in the 2021 period compared to the 2020 period.
Capital Expenditures. Total capital expenditures for property and equipment and other intangible assets were $1.9 million and $13.6 million for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The capital expenditures in 2021 and 2020 primarily consisted of purchases of property and equipment in our Restaurant Group segment.
Financing Cash Flows. Our cash flows used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 were $4.1 million and $86.4 million, respectively. The decrease in cash used in financing activities of $82.3 million is primarily attributable to a net decrease in debt proceeds net of service payments of $4.4 million in the 2021 period compared to $78.7 in the 2020 period and $10.8 million of cash paid for purchases of Treasury stock in the 2020 period.
Financing Arrangements. For a description of our financing arrangements, see Note F included in Item 1 of Part 1 of this Quarterly Report, which is incorporated by reference into this Item 2 of Part I.
Seasonality. There have been no material changes to the seasonality experienced in our businesses from those described for the period as of and for the year ended December 31, 2020 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Contractual Obligations. Our long term contractual obligations generally include our credit agreements and other debt facilities, lease payments and financing obligations on certain of our premises and equipment, purchase obligations of the Restaurant Group and payments to our Manager.
Operating lease payments include the expected future rent payments of the Company and its operating subsidiaries, primarily for the Restaurant Group. The operating leases are accounted for pursuant to ASC 842 Leases.
Purchase obligations include agreements to purchase goods or services that are enforceable, are legally binding and specify all significant terms, including fixed or minimum quantities to be purchased; fixed, minimum or variable price provisions; and
35
the approximate timing of the transaction. The Restaurant Group has unconditional purchase obligations with various vendors, primarily related to food and beverage obligations with fixed commitments in regards to the time period of the contract and the quantities purchased with annual price adjustments that can fluctuate. Future purchase obligations are estimated by assuming historical purchase activity over the remaining, non-cancellable terms of the various agreements. For agreements with minimum purchase obligations, at least the minimum amounts we are legally required to purchase are included. These agreements do not include fixed delivery terms. We used both historical and projected volume and pricing as of March 31, 2021 to determine the amount of these obligations.
Pursuant to the terms of the Management Services Agreement between Cannae LLC and our Manager, Cannae LLC is obligated to pay our Manager a quarterly management fee equal to 0.375% (1.5% annualized) of the Company’s cost of invested capital (as defined in the Management Services Agreement) as of the last day of each fiscal quarter, payable in arrears in cash, as may be adjusted pursuant to the terms of the Management Services Agreement. Management fees payable to our Manager are included for the initial 5-year term of the Management Services Agreement that began in September 2019 and are based on our cost of invested capital of $2,024.9 million as of March 31, 2021.
Restaurant Group financing obligations include its agreements to lease its corporate office and certain O'Charley's restaurant locations which are accounted for as failed sale and leaseback transactions.
As of March 31, 2021, our required annual payments relating to these contractual obligations were as follows:

Capital Stock Transactions. On September 19, 2019, our Board of Directors approved a three-year stock repurchase program effective September 19, 2019 (the "2019 Repurchase Program") under which we may purchase up to 5 million shares of our CNNE common stock through September 30, 2022. We may make repurchases from time to time in the open market, in block purchases or in privately negotiated transactions, depending on market conditions and other factors.
On March 1, 2021, we announced that our Board has authorized an additional three-year stock repurchase program, effective February 26, 2021 (the "2021 Repurchase Program"), under which the Company may repurchase up to 10 million shares of its common stock. Purchases may be made from time to time in the open market at prevailing prices or in privately negotiated transactions through February 26, 2024. The repurchase program does not obligate the Company to acquire any specific number of shares and may be suspended or terminated at any time.
We did not repurchase any shares of CNNE common stock during the three months ended March 31, 2021 under either the 2019 Repurchase Program or the 2021 Repurchase Program. Since the original commencement of the 2019 Repurchase Program through market close on March 31, 2021, we repurchased a total of 688,416 common shares for approximately $19.3 million in the aggregate, or an average of $28.06 per share.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements. There have been no significant changes to our off-balance sheet arrangements since our Annual Report.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk
There have been no material changes in the market risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure
36
controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is: (a) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms; and (b) accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2021 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
