We are a provider of data analytics and technology-enabled solutions designed to bring affordability, efficiency and fairness to the U.S. healthcare industry. We do so through services focused on reducing medical cost and improving payment accuracy for the payors of healthcare, which are health insurers, self-insured employers and other health plan sponsors (typically through their health plan administrators), and, indirectly, the plan members who are the consumers of healthcare services.
Throughout the notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, unless otherwise noted, "we," "us," "our", "MultiPlan", and the "Company" and similar terms refer to Polaris and its subsidiaries prior to the consummation of the Transactions, and MultiPlan and its subsidiaries after the Transactions.
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of MultiPlan Corporation have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations for reporting on Form 10-Q. Certain information and disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) for complete consolidated financial statements have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the SEC’s rules and regulations, although management believes that the disclosures are adequate and make the information presented not misleading. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of MultiPlan Corporation and the notes thereto, included in the Company’s 2021 Annual Report. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature (except as otherwise noted), necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s financial position as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, and its results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 have been included.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from the Company's estimates. Estimates are periodically reviewed in light of changes in circumstances, facts and experience. Changes in estimates are recorded in the period in which they become known. Significant estimates and assumptions reflected in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, revenue recognition, recoverability of long-lived assets, goodwill, valuation of Private Placement Warrants and Unvested Founder Shares, valuation of stock-based compensation awards and income taxes.
COVID-19
COVID-19 has negatively impacted our business, results of operations and financial condition since the first quarter of 2020 as various federal, state, and local governments and private entities mandated, and in some cases continue to mandate, restrictions on travel, restrictions on public gatherings, closure of non-essential commerce, and shelter in place orders. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company’s revenues continue to be negatively impacted as a result of the medical charges received on non-COVID-19 claims from customers not yet reaching pre-COVID-19 pandemic levels due to fewer elective medical procedures and non-essential medical services. Such negative impacts, however, have been to a lesser extent compared to the same period in 2020 and 2021 as vaccination rates have increased and most restrictions on medical services have been lifted. The extent of the ultimate impact of COVID-19 will depend on the severity and duration of the evolving pandemic. Future developments remain uncertain, including the number of confirmed cases, the emergence of highly contagious variants, and any actions taken by federal, state and local governments such as economic relief efforts, as well as U.S. and global economies, consumer behavior and healthcare utilization patterns.
Segment Reporting
Operating segments are defined as components of an entity for which separate financial information is available and regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker. The Company manages its operations as a single segment for the
11

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
purposes of assessing performance and making decisions. The Company's singular focus is being a leading value-added provider of data analytics and technology-enabled end-to-end cost management, payment and revenue integrity solutions to the U.S. healthcare industry.
In addition, all of the Company's revenues and long-lived assets are attributable to operations in the United States for all periods presented.
Revenue Recognition

Due to the nature of our arrangements, certain estimates may be constrained if it is probable that a significant reversal of revenue will occur when the uncertainty is resolved. For our percentage of savings contracts, portions of revenue that is recognized and collected in a reporting period may be returned or credited in subsequent periods. These credits are the result of payers not utilizing the discounts that were initially calculated, or differences between the Company’s estimates of savings achieved for a customer and the amounts self-reported in the following month by that same customer. Significant judgment is used in constraining estimates of variable consideration, and is based upon both client-specific and aggregated factors that include historical billing and adjustment data, client contract terms, and performance guarantees. We update our estimates at the end of each reporting period as additional information becomes available. There have not been any material changes to estimates of variable consideration for performance obligations satisfied prior to the six months ended June 30, 2022.
The timing of payments from customers from time to time generates contract assets or contract liabilities, however these amounts are immaterial in all periods presented.
2.Investments
In June 2022, the Company, acquired for cash consideration of $15.0 million, a minority interest of Abacus Insights, Inc., a leading data management and interoperability platform that enables health plans and their providers to standardize data across the healthcare ecosystem by providing a highly secure unified data infrastructure that maximizes analytics enablement to reduce costs and improve outcomes.
The investment does not have a readily determinable fair value and the Company has elected to record the investment at cost, less impairment, if any, plus or minus any changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for an identical or similar investment of the same issuer. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, there were no observable price changes or impairments recorded. Refer to Note 5 Fair Value Measurements for additional information.

(1)Beginning December 31, 2021 and quarterly thereafter, we shall repay a principal amount of the Term Loan B equal to 0.25% of the initial aggregate principal of $1,325.0 million. These scheduled principal repayments may be reduced by any voluntary or mandatory prepayments made in accordance with the credit agreement.
(2)Interest on Term Loan B and Revolver B is calculated, at MPH's option, as (a) LIBOR (or, with respect to the term loan facility only, 0.50%, whichever is higher), plus the applicable margin, or (b) the highest rate of (1) prime rate, (2) the federal funds effective rate, plus 0.50%, (3) the LIBOR for an interest period of one month, plus 1.00% and (4) 0.50% for Term Loan B and 1.00% for Revolver B, in each case, plus an applicable margin of 4.25% for Term Loan B and between 3.50% and 4.00% for Revolver B, depending on MPH's first lien debt to consolidated EBITDA ratio. The interest rate in effect for Term Loan B was 5.82% as of June 30, 2022.
(3)The Senior Convertible PIK Notes are convertible into shares of Class A common stock based on a $13.00 conversion price, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments.
4.Private Placement Warrants and Unvested Founder Shares
The Company classifies the Private Placement Warrants and Unvested Founder Shares as a liability on its unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as these instruments are precluded from being indexed to our own stock given the terms allow for a settlement that does not meet the scope of the fixed-for-fixed exception in Accounting Standards Codification 815.

Table of Contents
MULTIPLAN CORPORATION
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
The Private Placement Warrants and Unvested Founder Shares were initially recorded at fair value on the date of consummation of the Transactions and are subsequently adjusted to fair value at each subsequent reporting date. The fair value of the Unvested Founder Shares and unvested Private Placement Warrants is obtained using a Monte Carlo model and the fair value of the remaining Private Placement Warrants is obtained using a Black Scholes model, together referenced as the "option pricing" model. The Company will continue to adjust the liability for changes in fair value for the founder shares until the earlier of the re-vesting or forfeiture of these instruments. The Company will continue to adjust the liability for changes in fair value for the Private Placement Warrants until the warrant is equity classified.
As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the fair value of the Private Placement Warrants and the Unvested Founder Shares were:
(in thousands)June 30, 2022December 31, 2021
Private Placement Warrants$30,188 $38,028 
Unvested Founder Shares36,220 35,972 
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the change in fair values was primarily due to the decrease in the expected stock volatility and the passage of time over that period, partially offset by the increase in the stock price of the Company's Class A common stock. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) include loss and (gains) related to the change in fair value of the Private Placement Warrants and Unvested Founder Shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 as follows:

Loss (gain) on change in fair value of Private Placement Warrants and Unvested Founder Shares$5,149 $81,560 $(7,592)$41,185 
5.Fair Value Measurements
Fair value measurements are based on the premise that fair value represents an exit price representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, the following three-tier fair value hierarchy has been used in determining the inputs used in measuring fair value:
Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities on the reporting date.
Level 2 — Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets (Level 1), that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 — Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the entity to develop its own assumptions
Financial instruments
Certain financial instruments which are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable, which approximate fair value due to their short-term nature. The financial instrument that potentially subjects the Company to concentrations of credit risk consists primarily of accounts receivable.
Cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2022 included money market funds of $150.0 million, which were valued based on Level 1 measurements using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. Our cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2021 did not include money market funds.

Total Liabilities$4,927,398 $4,283,759 $4,931,180 $4,815,457 
As of June 30, 2022, the fair value of long-term debt, including current maturities of finance lease obligations, was obtained using quoted prices in active markets. As such, this is considered a Level 1 fair value measurement.
As of December 31, 2021, we estimated the fair value of long-term debt, including current maturities of finance lease obligations, based on estimates using present value techniques that were significantly affected by the assumptions used concerning the amount and timing of estimated future cash flows and discount rates that reflect varying degrees of risk. Assumptions included interest rates currently available for instruments with similar terms as well as the five, seven, and eight-year Treasury bill rates. As such, this was considered a Level 2 fair value measurement.
Recurring fair value measurements
The Private Placement Warrants and Unvested Founder Shares are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The fair value of these instruments was determined based on significant inputs not observable in the market which would represent a level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy. The Company uses an option pricing simulation to estimate the fair value of these instruments.
Non-recurring fair value measurements
We also measure certain non-financial assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis, primarily goodwill and long-lived tangible and intangible assets, in connection with periodic evaluations for potential impairment. We estimate the fair value of these assets using primarily unobservable inputs and, as such, these are considered Level 3 fair value measurements. There were no material impairment charges for these assets for fiscal years 2022 and 2021.
Our non-marketable equity securities using the measurement alternative are adjusted to fair value on a non-recurring basis. Adjustments are made when observable transactions for identical or similar investments of the same issuer occur, or due to impairment. These securities are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy because we estimate the value based on valuation methods using the observable transaction price at the transaction date. At June 30, 2022, the carrying amount of these alternative investments, recorded under Other assets, net in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, was $15.0 million. There were no write-ups due to observable price changes or write-downs due to impairment in the current period.
6.Commitments and Contingencies
Commitments
The Company has certain irrevocable letters of credit used to satisfy real estate lease agreements for three of our offices in lieu of security deposits in the amount of $1.8 million outstanding as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.
Claims and Litigation
The Company is a defendant in various lawsuits and other pending and threatened litigation and other adversarial matters as well as regulatory investigations, all of which have arisen in the ordinary course of business. While the ultimate outcome
15

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
with respect to such proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company does not believe they will result, individually or in the aggregate, in a material adverse effect upon our financial condition or results of operations, or cash flows.
On March 25, 2021 and April 9, 2021, we were named as a defendant in two putative class action lawsuits relating to the Transactions that have since been consolidated under the caption In Re MultiPlan Corp. Stockholders Litigation, Consolidated C.A. No. 2021-0300-LWW (Del.Ch) ("Delaware Stockholder Litigation"). The Delaware Stockholder Litigation asserts breach of fiduciary duty claims and aiding and abetting breach of fiduciary duty claims against the former directors of the Churchill board, the Sponsor, KG and M. Klein (collectively, the "Churchill Defendants") and the Company. The Delaware Stockholder Litigation complaint alleges that the Transactions were a product of an unfair process by Churchill, which was allegedly impacted by conflicts of interest, resulting in mispricing of the Transactions. The complaint seeks, among other things, damages, certain equitable relief including the reopening of redemptions, and attorneys’ fees and costs. The Company and the Churchill Defendants filed motions to dismiss the complaint. On January 3, 2022, the Chancery Court issued a ruling granting in part the Company’s motion to dismiss and denying the motion to dismiss filed by the Churchill Defendants. The Company is therefore dismissed from the Delaware Stockholder Litigation, which is proceeding against the Churchill Defendants. The Company has agreed to indemnify certain of the Churchill Defendants with respect to the Delaware Stockholder Litigation.
We accrue for costs associated with certain contingencies, including, but not limited to, settlement of legal proceedings, regulatory compliance matters and self-insurance exposures when such costs are probable and reasonably estimable. Such accruals are included in other accrued expenses on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. In addition, we accrue for legal fees incurred in defense of asserted litigation and regulatory matters as such legal fees are incurred. To the extent it is probable under our existing insurance coverage that we are able to recover losses and legal fees related to contingencies, we record such recoveries concurrently with the accrual of the related loss or legal fees. Significant management judgment is required to estimate the amounts of such contingent liabilities and the related insurance recoveries. In our determination of the probability and ability to estimate contingent liabilities and related insurance recoveries we consider the following: litigation exposure based on currently available information, consultations with external legal counsel, adequacy and applicability of existing insurance coverage and other pertinent facts and circumstances regarding the contingency. Liabilities established to provide for contingencies are adjusted as further information develops, circumstances change, or contingencies are resolved; and such changes are recorded in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) during the period of the change and appropriately reflected in other accrued liabilities on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Additionally, we have excluded from the calculation of diluted net income (loss) per share awards within the 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan, whose effect would have been anti-dilutive of 12,939,954 and 5,520,722 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Company Overview
MultiPlan is a leading provider of data analytics and technology-enabled solutions designed to bring affordability, efficiency and fairness to the United States healthcare industry. We do so through services focused on reducing medical cost and improving payment accuracy for the payors of healthcare, which are health insurers, self-insured employers and other health plan sponsors (typically through their health plan administrators), and, indirectly, the plan members who are the consumers of healthcare services.
Founded initially in 1980 as a New York-based hospital network, MultiPlan has evolved both organically and through acquisition into a national organization offering three categories of services:
Analytics-Based Services: data-driven algorithms which detect claims over-charges and either negotiate or recommend fair reimbursement using a variety of data sources and pricing algorithms;
Network-Based Services: contracted discounts with healthcare providers to form one of the largest independent preferred provider organizations ("PPO") in the United States with over 1.3 million providers under contract, as well as outsourced network development and/or management services; and
Payment and Revenue Integrity Services: data, technology, and clinical expertise deployed to identify and remove improper and unnecessary charges before or after claims are paid, or to identify and help restore and preserve underpaid premium dollars.
Although the end beneficiary of our services are employers and other plan sponsors and their health plan members, our direct customers are mostly health plan administrators ("Payors"). We offer these Payors a single electronic gateway to a comprehensive set of services in each of the above three categories, which are used in combination or individually to reduce the medical cost burden on their health plan customers and members while fostering fair and efficient payments to the providers. These comprehensive offerings have enabled us to maintain long-term relationships with a number of our customers, including relationships of over 25 years with some of the nation's largest Payors. For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and year ended December 31, 2021 our comprehensive services identified approximately $11.2 billion and $21.7 billion in potential medical cost savings, respectively.
We believe our solutions provide a strong value proposition to Payors, their health plan customers and healthcare consumers, as well as to providers. Overall, our service offerings aim to reduce healthcare costs in a manner that is orderly, efficient and fair to all parties. In addition, because in most instances the fee for our services is directly linked to the savings we identify, our revenue model is aligned with the interests of our customers.

Uncertainty Relating to the COVID-19 Pandemic
As discussed above in Note 1 General Information and Basis of Accounting of the notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report, COVID-19 has negatively impacted our business, results of operations and financial condition since the first quarter of 2020.
Effects from COVID-19 began to impact our business in first quarter 2020 with various federal, state, and local governments and private entities mandating restrictions on travel, restrictions on public gatherings, closure of non-essential commerce, and shelter in place orders. We temporarily closed all of our offices and restricted travel in 2020 and 2021 due to concern for our employees’ health and safety and also in compliance with state orders. Most of our approximately 2,500 employees continue to work remotely. Other than these modifications, we have not experienced any material changes to our operations including receiving and processing transactions with our customers as a result of COVID-19.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company’s revenues continue to be negatively impacted as a result of the medical charges received on non-COVID-19 claims from customers not yet reaching pre-COVID-19 pandemic levels due to fewer elective medical procedures and non-essential medical services. Such negative impacts, however, are to a lesser extent compared to the same period in 2020 and 2021, as vaccination rates have increased and most restrictions on medical services have been lifted. The extent of the ultimate impact of COVID-19 will depend on the severity and duration of the evolving pandemic. Future developments remain uncertain, including the number of confirmed cases, the emergence of highly contagious variants, and any actions taken by federal, state and local governments such as economic relief efforts, as well as U.S. and global economies, consumer behavior and healthcare utilization patterns.
Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations
Medical Cost Savings -
Our business and revenues are driven by the ability to lower medical costs through claims savings for our customers. The medical charges of those claims can influence our ability to generate claim savings.
The following table presents the medical charges processed and the potential savings identified for the periods presented:
Six Months Ended June 30,Change
(in millions)20222021
Medical charges processed(1)(3)
$63,560.1 $57,383.9 10.8 %
Potential medical cost savings(2)(3)
$11,196.9 $10,522.4 6.4 %
While the medical charges processed on claims received from customers have increased, the medical charges on our non-COVID-19 services have not yet returned to pre-pandemic levels as a result of fewer elective medical procedures and non-essential medical services. A portion of this increase is the result of medical charges and related savings for COVID-19 services, such as COVID-19 testing, treatment, and vaccines, which were higher in the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2021.
_____________________________
(1)Medical charges processed represent the aggregate dollar amount of claims processed by our cost management and payment accuracy solutions in the period presented. The dollar amount of the claim for purposes of this calculation is the dollar amount of the claim prior to any reductions that may be made as a result of the claim being processed by our solutions. Medical charges processed exclude medical charges processed by DHP in both time periods.
(2)Potential medical cost savings represent the aggregate amount of potential savings in dollars identified by our cost management and payment accuracy solutions in the period presented. Since certain of our fees are based on the amount of savings achieved by our customers, and our customers are the final adjudicator of the claims and may choose not to reduce claims or reduce claims by only a portion of the potential savings identified, potential medical cost savings may not directly correlate with the amount of fees earned in connection with the processing of such claims. Potential medical cost savings exclude potential medical cost savings identified by DHP in both time periods.
(3)Changes to previously reported medical charges processed and potential medical cost savings are due to claim development such as client claim resubmissions or cancellation of claims. Examples of these changes include, but are not limited to, adjudication changes, billing changes, and elimination of claims that were later determined to be invalid.

Components of Results of Operations
Revenues
We generate revenues from several sources including: (i) Network-Based Services that process claims at a discount compared to billed fee-for-service rates and by using an extensive network, (ii) Analytics-Based Services that use our leading and proprietary information technology platform to offer customers solutions to reduce medical costs, and (iii) Payment and Revenue Integrity Services that use data, technology, and clinical expertise to identify improper, unnecessary and excessive charges. Payors typically compensate us through either a PSAV achieved or a PEPM rate.
Costs of Services (exclusive of depreciation and amortization of intangible assets)
Costs of services (exclusive of depreciation and amortization of intangible assets) consist of all costs specifically associated with claims processing activities for customers, sales and marketing, and the development and maintenance of our networks, analytics-based services, and payment and revenue integrity services. Two of the largest components in costs of services are personnel expenses and access and bill review fees. Access and bill review fees include fees for accessing non-owned third-party provider networks, expenses associated with vendor fees for database access and systems technology used to reprice claims, and outsourced services. Third-party network expenses are fees paid to non-owned provider networks used to supplement our owned network assets to provide more network claim savings to our customers.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses include corporate management and governance functions composed of general management, legal, treasury, tax, real estate, financial reporting, auditing, benefits and human resource administration, communications, public relations, billing and information management. In addition, general and administrative expenses include taxes, insurance, advertising, transaction costs, and other general expenses.
Depreciation Expense
Depreciation expense consists of depreciation and amortization of property and equipment related to our investments in leasehold improvements, furniture and equipment, computer hardware and software, and internally generated capitalized software development costs. We provide for depreciation and amortization on property and equipment using the straight-line method to allocate the cost of depreciable assets over their estimated useful lives.
Amortization of intangible assets
Amortization of intangible assets includes amortization of the value of our customer relationships, provider network, technology, and trademarks which were identified in valuing the intangible assets in connection with the June 6, 2016 acquisition by H&F, as well as recent acquisitions of HST and DHP by the Company.
Interest expense
Interest expense consists of accrued interest and related interest payments on our outstanding long-term debt and amortization of debt issuance costs and discounts.
Interest income
Interest income consists primarily of bank interest.
Loss (gain) on change in fair value of Private Placement Warrants and Unvested Founder Shares
The Company re-measures at each reporting period the fair value of the Private Placement Warrants and Unvested Founder Shares. The changes in fair value are primarily due to the changes in the stock price of the Company's Class A common stock, the expected stock volatility and the passage of time over the reporting period.
Income tax expense
Income tax expense consists of federal, state, and local income taxes.
21


Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We use EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS to evaluate our financial performance. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EPS are financial measures that are not presented in accordance with GAAP. We believe the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to investors in assessing our financial condition and results of operations across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our financial operating results of our core business.
These measurements of financial performance have important limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Additionally, they may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Some of these limitations are:
such measures do not reflect our cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
such measures do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
such measures do not reflect the significant interest expense, or cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt;
such measures do not reflect any cash requirements for any future replacement of depreciated assets;
such measures do not reflect the impact of stock-based compensation upon our results of operations;
such measures do not reflect our income tax (benefit) expense or the cash requirements to pay our income taxes;
such measures do not reflect the impact of certain cash charges resulting from matters we consider not to be indicative of our ongoing operations; and
other companies in our industry may calculate these measures differently from how we do, limiting their usefulness as a comparative measure.
In evaluating EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses similar to those eliminated in the presentation.
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EPS are widely used measures of corporate profitability eliminating the effects of financing and capital expenditures from the operating results. We define EBITDA as net income (loss) adjusted for interest expense, interest income, income tax expense, depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, and non-income taxes. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA further adjusted to eliminate the impact of certain items that we do not consider to be indicative of our core business, including other expenses, net, loss (gain) on change in fair value of Private Placement Warrants and Unvested Founder Shares, transaction related expenses, gain on investments and stock-based compensation. See our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report for more information regarding these adjustments. Adjusted EBITDA is used in our agreements governing our outstanding indebtedness for debt covenant compliance purposes. Our Adjusted EBITDA calculation is consistent with the definition of Adjusted EBITDA used in our debt instruments.
Adjusted EPS is used in reporting to our Board and executive management and as a component of the measurement of our performance. We believe that this measure provides useful information to investors because it is the profitability measure we use to evaluate earnings performance on a comparable year-to-year basis. Adjusted EPS is defined as net income (loss) adjusted for amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation, transaction related expenses, gain on investments, other expense, loss (gain) on change in fair value of Private Placement Warrants and Unvested Founder Shares and tax effect of adjustments to arrive at Adjusted net income divided by our basic weighted average number of shares outstanding.

Material differences between MultiPlan Corporation and MPH for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 include differences in interest expense, loss (gain) on change in fair value of Private Placement Warrants and Unvested Founder Shares, and stock-based compensation. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, interest expense for MultiPlan Corporation is $20.3 million and $40.8 million higher than interest expense for MPH, respectively, due to interest expense incurred by MultiPlan Corporation on the Senior Convertible PIK Notes. The loss (gain) on change in fair value of Private Placement Warrants and Unvested Founder Shares, and stock-based compensation are recorded in the parent company MultiPlan Corporation and not in the MPH operating company and therefore the entire amount represents differences between MultiPlan Corporation and MPH.

Factors Affecting the Comparability of our Results of Operations
As a result of a number of factors, our historical results of operations may not be comparable to our results of operations in future periods and may not be directly comparable from period to period. Set forth below is a brief discussion of the key factors impacting the comparability of our results of operations.
DHP Acquisition
On February 26, 2021, the Company completed the acquisition of DHP, an analytics and technology company offering healthcare payment and revenue integrity services. The Company acquired 100 percent of the voting equity interest of DHP. The acquisition strengthens MultiPlan's service offering in the payment integrity market with new and complementary services to help its Payor customers manage the overall cost of care and improve their competitiveness. It also adds revenue integrity services for plans that receive premiums from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.
The results of operations and financial condition of DHP have been included in the Company's consolidated results from the date of acquisition. In 2021 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, DHP's impact on revenues and net earnings was not material. In connection with the DHP acquisition, the Company incurred transaction costs of $0.1 million and $4.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The transaction-related expenses have been expensed as incurred and are included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss).
Debt Refinancings, Repayments and Repricing
On August 24, 2021, MPH issued new senior secured credit facilities composed of $1,325.0 million of Term Loan B and $450.0 million of a Revolver B, and $1,050.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.50% Senior Secured Notes. MPH used the net proceeds from Term Loan B, issued with a discount of 1.00%, and the 5.50% Senior Secured Notes to repay all of the outstanding balance of its Term Loan G for a total redemption price of $2,354.6 million, and pay fees and expenses in connection therewith.
Interest on Term Loan B and Revolver B is calculated, at MPH’s option, as (a) LIBOR (or, with respect to Term Loan B only, 0.50%, if higher), plus the applicable margin, or (b) the highest rate of (1) the prime rate, (2) the federal funds effective rate, plus 0.50%, (3) the LIBOR for an interest period of one month, plus 1.00% and (4) 0.50% for Term Loan B and 1.00% for
24


Revolver B, in each case, plus an applicable margin of 4.25% for Term Loan B and between 3.50% and 4.00% for Revolver B, depending on MPH’s first lien debt to consolidated EBITDA ratio. The interest rate in effect for Term Loan B was 5.82% as of June 30, 2022 and the interest rate in effect for Term Loan G was 3.75% as of June 30, 2021.
The Company is obligated to pay a commitment fee on the average daily unused amount of Revolver B. The annual commitment fee can range from an annual rate of 0.25% to 0.50% based on the Company's first lien debt to consolidated EBITDA ratio, as defined in the agreement.
The interest rate on the 5.50% Senior Secured Notes is fixed at 5.50%, and is payable semi-annually on March 1 and September 1 of each year.
For all our debt agreements with an interest rate dependent on LIBOR, we are currently assessing and monitoring how transitioning from LIBOR to an alternative reference rate may affect us past 2023.
In connection with the issuance of our debt instruments, the Company incurred specific expenses, including commissions, fees and expenses of investment bankers and underwriters, registration and listing fees, accounting and legal fees pertaining to the financing and other external, and incremental expenses paid to advisors that were directly attributable to realizing the proceeds of the debt issues. These costs were capitalized and are being amortized over the term of the related debt using the effective interest method. The amortization of the debt issuance costs and discounts are included in interest expense in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss).
Stock-Based Compensation
Since the consummation of the Transactions, the Company has operated under the 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan effective October 8, 2020. To date, awards granted under the 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan have been in the form of Employee RS, Employee RSUs, Fixed Value RSUs, Employee NQSOs and Director RSUs. Stock-based compensation is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award.
During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company has granted 7.3 million Employee NQSOs, 3.9 million Employee RSUs and 0.2 million Director RSUs under the 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense under the 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan of $4.1 million and $7.2 million and $7.5 million and $8.4 million, respectively, in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss).

Revenues
Revenues increased by $13.9 million, or 5.0%, and $57.0 million, or 10.7%, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. These increases in revenues were primarily related to increases in our Analytics-Based Services and Payment and Revenue Integrity revenues of $22.5 million and $66.4 million, respectively, offset by decreases in our Network-Based Services revenue of $8.7 million and $9.4 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, as explained below.
Network-Based Services revenues decreased $8.7 million, or 12.0%, and $9.4 million, or 6.6%, in the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, as compared to revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. These decreases in revenues were primarily related to client attrition and lower medical charges processed on Network-Based Services claims received from customers, resulting in lower savings for such customers contributing to decreases in revenues of $6.1 million and $8.3 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. The remaining decreases of $2.6 million and $1.1 million, respectively, are related to decreases in PEPM and other network revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2021.
26


Analytics-Based Services revenues increased $22.5 million, or 13.2% and $61.5 million, or 18.7%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, as compared to revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. These increases were primarily driven by higher medical charges from customers, resulting in higher savings for such customers. The increases in medical charges processed reflect, in part, a favorable decline of the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2021.
Payment and Revenue Integrity Services revenues were relatively flat for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, reflecting substantially consistent period over period performance for this service line. Payment and Integrity Services revenues increased $5.0 million, or 8.1%, for the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2021 primarily due to increases of $5.7 million of acquired revenues from DHP, offset by $0.8 million of net decreases in revenues for this service line, primarily in our pre-payment integrity service line.

The increase in personnel expenses, including contract labor, for the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021, was primarily due to increases in stock-based compensation of $0.5 million and non-stock-based compensation-related personnel expenses of $4.0 million primarily due to increases in employee headcount and year-over-year compensation increases, due in part to salary increases to remain competitive in the market as a result of inflationary pressure on wages.
The increase in personnel expenses, including contract labor, for the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021, was primarily due to increases in stock-based compensation of $1.1 million and non-stock-based compensation-related personnel expenses of $10.6 million, primarily due to a $3.9 million increase in compensation-related expenses from the acquisition of DHP, which was acquired on February 26, 2021. The remaining $6.6 million increase was primarily due to increases in employee headcount and year-over-year compensation increases, due in part to salary increases to remain competitive in the market as a result of inflationary pressure on wages.

The increase of $0.2 million, or 0.4%, in general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021 was primarily due to an increase in personnel expenses of $0.2 million, an increase in insurance of $0.6 million primarily related to higher D&O insurance and Technology E&O insurance, an increase in the loss on disposal of assets of $2.2 million due to lease terminations and impairment of other assets, and a net increase in other expenses of $1.4 million, offset by a decrease in professional fees of $1.1 million, primarily legal, audit, and consulting fees, and a decrease in integration expenses of $3.1 million, primarily related to the acquisitions of HST and DHP. The increase in personnel expenses of $0.2 million was due to an increase in compensation-related expenses of $4.1 million, primarily in contract labor, offset by a decrease in stock-based compensation of $3.9 million.
The increase of $0.8 million, or 1.0%, in general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021 was primarily due to an increase in personnel expenses of $5.0 million, an increase in insurance of $1.4 million primarily related to higher D&O insurance and Technology E&O insurance, an increase in the loss on disposal of assets of $1.9 million primarily related to lease terminations and impairment of other assets, and an increase in equipment lease and maintenance of $0.9 million and an increase in net other expenses of $1.0 million, offset by an increase in the capitalized software development offset of $3.8 million, an increase in miscellaneous gains of $1.2 million, a decrease in integration expenses of $2.0 million, primarily related to the acquisitions of HST and DHP, and a decrease in transaction costs of $2.4 million. The increase in personnel expenses of $5.0 million was due to an increase in compensation-related expenses of $7.3 million, primarily in contract labor of $4.9 million and $2.4 million of employee compensation and related benefits, partially due to increases in employee headcount, offset by a decrease in stock-based compensation of $2.3 million.
Depreciation Expense
The increases of $0.2 million, or 1.0%, and $0.6 million, or 1.8%, in depreciation expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 were due to purchases of property and equipment, including internally generated capitalized software in the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and year ended December 31, 2021, respectively, partially offset by assets that were written-off or became fully depreciated in the period.
Amortization of Intangible Assets
Amortization of intangible assets was relatively flat for the three months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021. The amortization of intangible assets increased $0.4 million, or 0.2%, for the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021, primarily due to the acquisition of DHP. This expense represents the amortization of intangible assets, as explained above and in the notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
Interest Expense
The increases of $8.7 million, or 13.6% and $16.4 million, or 12.9%, in interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, were due to the increase in LIBOR interest rates and increase in interest rates due to the effect of the refinancing on August 24, 2021 when MPH issued new senior secured credit facilities composed of Term Loan B and Revolver B, and issued the 5.50% Senior Secured Notes, using the net proceeds to repay all of the outstanding balance of Term Loan G. Our annualized weighted average cash interest rate increased by 0.7% across our total debt in the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the same period in prior year.
As of June 30, 2022, our long-term debt was $4,877.7 million and included (i) $1,301.8 million Term Loan B, discount on Term Loan B of $12.0 million, excluding the current portion of Term Loan B of $13.3 million (ii) $1,050.0 million of 5.50% Senior Secured Notes, (iii) $1,300.0 million of 5.750% Senior Notes, (iv) $1,300.0 million of Senior Convertible PIK Notes, discount on Senior Convertible PIK Notes of $25.7 million, and (v) $0.1 million of long-term finance lease obligations, net of (vi) debt issue costs of $36.5 million. As of June 30, 2022, our total debt had an annualized weighted average cash interest rate of 5.8%. As of June 30, 2021, our total debt had an annualized weighted average cash interest rate of 4.9%.
As of December 31, 2021, our long-term debt was $4,879.1 million and included (i) $1,308.4 million Term Loan B, discount on Term Loan B of $12.9 million, excluding the current portion of Term Loan B of $13.3 million (ii) $1,050.0 million of 5.50% Senior Secured Notes, (iii) $1,300.0 million of 5.750% Senior Notes, (iv) $1,300.0 million of Senior Convertible PIK Notes, discount on Senior Convertible PIK Notes of $27.7 million, and (iv) $0.1 million of long-term finance lease obligations, net of (v) debt issue costs of $38.8 million. As of December 31, 2021, our total debt had a weighted average cash interest rate of 4.6%.

Loss (gain) on change in fair value of Private Placement Warrants and Unvested Founder Shares
The Company re-measures the fair value of the Private Placement Warrants and Unvested Founder Shares at each reporting period. From December 31, 2021 to June 30, 2022, the fair value of the Private Placement Warrants decreased by $7.8 million and the fair value of the Unvested Founder Shares increased by $0.2 million. The decrease was primarily due to the decrease in the expected stock volatility and the passage of time over that period partially offset by the increase in the stock price of the Company's Class A common stock.
Provision (benefit) for income taxes
Net income before income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2022 of $20.0 million generated a provision for income taxes of $6.5 million. Net loss before income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2021 of $55.7 million generated a benefit for income taxes of $8.8 million.
Net income before income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2022 of $78.2 million generated a provision for income taxes of $20.7 million. Net income before income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2021 of $3.2 million generated a provision for income taxes of $4.3 million. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2022 differed from the statutory rate primarily due to a non-deductible mark-to-market liability, limitations on executive compensation and state tax expense. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2021 differed from the statutory rate primarily due to a non-deductible mark-to-market liability, impact of acquisitions and changes in the Company’s deferred state tax rate due to operations and state tax expense.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of June 30, 2022, we had cash and cash equivalents of $354.3 million and $448.2 million of loan availability under the revolving credit facility. On August 24, 2021, the maturity of the revolving credit facility was extended from June 7, 2023 to August 24, 2026. As of June 30, 2022, we have three letters of credit totaling $1.8 million of utilization against the revolving credit facility. The three letters of credit are used to satisfy real estate lease agreements for three of our offices in lieu of security deposits.
Our primary sources of liquidity are internally generated funds combined with our borrowing capacity under our revolving credit facility. We believe that these sources will provide sufficient liquidity for us to meet our working capital, capital expenditure and other cash requirements for at least the next twelve months. We may from time to time at our sole discretion, purchase, redeem or retire our long-term debt, through tender offers, in privately negotiated or open market transactions or otherwise. We plan to finance our capital expenditures with cash from operations. Furthermore, our future liquidity and future ability to fund capital expenditures, working capital and debt requirements are also dependent upon our future financial performance, which is subject to many economic, commercial, financial and other factors that are beyond our control, including the ability of financial institutions to meet their lending obligations to us. If those factors significantly change, our business may not be able to generate sufficient cash flow from operations or future borrowings may not be available to meet our liquidity needs. We anticipate that to the extent we require additional liquidity as a result of these factors or in order to execute our strategy, it would be financed either by borrowings under our senior secured credit facilities, by other indebtedness, additional equity financings or a combination of the foregoing. We may be unable to obtain any such additional financing on reasonable terms or at all.
Cash Flow Summary
The following table is derived from our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows:

Cash Flows from Operating Activities
Cash flows from operating activities provided $235.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and $204.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. This $31.3 million, or 15.3%, increase in cash flows from operating activities was primarily the result of an increase in net income of $58.5 million and changes in net working capital of $80.5 million offset by a decrease in adjustments for non-cash items of $107.8 million.
The $107.8 million decrease in non-cash items was primarily due to a decrease in the loss (gain) on change in fair value of Private Placement Warrants and Unvested Founder Shares of $48.8 million, a decrease in deferred income taxes of $59.8 million, a decrease in stock-based compensation of $1.2 million, a decrease in non-cash interest costs of $0.6 million including decreases in debt issue costs, a gain on equity investments of $0.3 million, a decrease in amortization of right of use asset of $0.2 million offset by an increase in loss on disposal of property and equipment of $2.1 million, an increase in depreciation of $0.6 million, and an increase in amortization of intangible assets of $0.4 million.
During the six months ended June 30, 2022, $22.9 million was provided by changes in net working capital including an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses and other expenses of $7.5 million, a decrease in prepaid expenses and other assets of $9.9 million, a decrease in net accounts receivable of $5.9 million primarily due to timing of collections, and a decrease in prepaid taxes of $5.1 million, offset by decreases in operating lease obligations of $5.4 million. The increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses and other expenses was primarily due to increases of $5.3 million in accrued compensation expense primarily related to the Company's employee bonus program and $3.1 million related to the timing of tax payments throughout the year which increased our liabilities, offset by decreases in other accrued expenses of $0.9 million.
During the six months ended June 30, 2021, $57.5 million was used by changes in net working capital including increases in prepaid taxes of $54.1 million, decreases in accounts payable and accrued expenses and other of $7.4 million and decreases in operating lease obligations of $3.4 million, offset by decreases in prepaid expenses and other assets of $2.5 million and decreases in net accounts receivable of $5.0 million primarily due to timing of collections.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
For the six months ended June 30, 2022, net cash of $58.1 million was used in investing activities including $43.4 million for purchases of property and equipment and capitalization of software development and the $15.0 million equity investment in Abacus. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, net cash of $180.9 million was used in investing activities including $149.7 million for the acquisition of DHP and $36.8 million for purchases of property and equipment and capitalization of software development, offset by proceeds from the sale of an investment of $5.6 million.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
Cash flows used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2022 were $8.8 million consisting of repayments of Term Loan B of $6.6 million and $2.2 million of taxes paid on net settlement of vested share awards.
Cash flows used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021 were $2.3 million as a result of taxes paid on net settlement of vested share awards.
Term Loans and Revolvers
On August 24, 2021, MPH issued new senior secured credit facilities composed of $1,325.0 million of Term Loan B, $450.0 million of Revolver B, and $1,050.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.50% Senior Secured Notes. MPH used the net proceeds from Term Loan B, issued with a discount of 1.00%, and the 5.50% Senior Secured Notes to repay all of the outstanding balance of its Term Loan G of $2,341.0 million, and pay fees and expenses in connection therewith.
Interest on Term Loan B and Revolver B is calculated, at MPH's option, as (a) LIBOR (or, with respect to Term Loan B only, 0.50%, if higher), plus the applicable margin, or (b) the highest rate of (1) the prime rate, (2) the federal funds effective rate, plus 0.50%, (3) the LIBOR for an interest period of one month plus 1.00% and (4) 0.50% for Term Loan B and 1.00% for Revolver B, in each case, plus an applicable margin of 4.25% for Term Loan B and between 3.50% and 4.00% for Revolver B, depending on MPH's first lien debt to consolidated EBITDA ratio. The interest rate in effect for Term Loan B was 5.82% as of June 30, 2022 and the interest rate in effect for Term Loan G was 3.75% as of June 30, 2021.
Term Loan B matures on September 1, 2028 and Revolver B matures on August 24, 2026.
For all our debt agreements with an interest rate dependent on LIBOR, we are currently assessing and monitoring how transitioning from LIBOR to an alternative reference rate may affect us past 2023.
30


We are obligated to pay a commitment fee on the average daily unused amount of our revolving credit facility. The annual commitment fee rate was 0.25% at June 30, 2022 and 0.50% at December 31, 2021. The fee can range from an annual rate of 0.25% to 0.50% based on our leverage ratio, as defined in the agreement.
Senior Notes
On October 8, 2020, the Company issued $1,300.0 million in aggregate principal amount of Senior Convertible PIK Notes. The Senior Convertible PIK Notes were issued with a 2.5% discount with a maturity date of October 15, 2027.
The Senior Convertible PIK Notes are convertible into shares of Class A common stock based on a $13.00 conversion price, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments. The interest rate on the Senior Convertible PIK Notes is fixed at 6% in cash and 7% in kind, and is payable semi-annually on April 15 and October 15 of each year.
On October 29, 2020, the Company issued $1,300.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the 5.750% Notes. The 5.750% Notes are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis jointly and severally by the Company and its subsidiaries and have a maturation date of November 1, 2028. The 5.750% Notes were issued at par. The interest rate on the 5.750% Notes is fixed at 5.750%, and is payable semi-annually on May 1 and November 1 of each year.
On August 24, 2021 MPH issued $1,050.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.50% Senior Secured Notes with a maturation date of September 1, 2028. The interest rate on the 5.50% Senior Secured Notes is fixed at 5.50%, and is payable semi-annually on March 1 and September 1 of each year. The 5.50% Senior Secured Notes are guaranteed and secured as described below under "Guarantees and Security".
Debt Covenants and Events of Default
We are subject to certain affirmative and negative debt covenants under the debt agreements governing our indebtedness that limit our and/or certain of our subsidiaries' ability to engage in specific types of transactions. These covenants limit our and/or certain of our subsidiaries' ability to, among other things:
incur additional indebtedness or issue disqualified or preferred stock;
pay certain dividends or make certain distributions on capital stock or repurchase or redeem capital stock;
make certain loans, investments or other restricted payments;
transfer or sell certain assets;
incur certain liens;
place restrictions on the ability of its subsidiaries to pay dividends or make other payments to us;
guarantee indebtedness or incur other contingent obligations;
prepay junior debt and make certain investments;
consummate any merger, consolidation or amalgamation, or liquidate, wind up or dissolve itself (or suffer any liquidation or dissolution), or dispose of all or substantially all of its business units, assets or other properties; and
engage in transactions with our affiliates.
Certain covenants related to the 5.50% Senior Secured Notes will cease to apply to the 5.50% Senior Secured Notes for so long as such notes have investment grade ratings from both Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. and S&P Global Ratings.
The Revolver Ratio is such that, if, as of the last day of any fiscal quarter of MPH, the aggregate amount of loans under the revolving credit facility, letters of credit issued under the revolving credit facility (to the extent not cash collateralized or backstopped or, in the aggregate, in excess of $10.0 million) and swingline loans are outstanding and/or issued in an aggregate amount greater than 35% of the total commitments in respect of the revolving credit facility at such time, the revolving credit facility will require MPH to maintain a maximum first lien secured leverage ratio of 6.75 to 1.00. Our consolidated first lien debt to consolidated EBITDA ratio is 2.30 times, 2.90 times, and 2.61 times as of June 30, 2022, June 30, 2021, and December 31, 2021, respectively.
As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 we were in compliance with all of the debt covenants.
31


The debt agreements governing the new senior secured credit facilities, the 5.750% Notes and the 5.50% Senior Secured Notes contain customary events of default, subject to grace periods and exceptions, which include, among others, payment defaults, cross-defaults to certain material indebtedness, certain events of bankruptcy, material judgments, in the case of the debt agreements governing the new senior secured credit facilities and the 5.50% Senior Secured Notes, failure of a guarantee on the liens on material collateral to remain in effect, in the case of the debt agreements governing the new senior secured credit facilities, any change of control. Upon the occurrence of an event of default under such debt agreements, the lenders and holders of such debt will be permitted to accelerate the loans and terminate the commitments, as applicable, thereunder and exercise other specified remedies available to the lenders and holders thereunder.
See the footnotes to the EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA reconciliation table provided above under "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" for material differences between the financial information of MultiPlan and MPH.
Guarantees and Security
All obligations under the debt agreements governing Term Loan B, Revolver B and the 5.50% Senior Secured Notes are unconditionally guaranteed by MPH Acquisition Corp. 1, the direct holding company parent of MPH, and each existing and subsequently acquired or organized direct or indirect wholly owned U.S. organized restricted subsidiary of MPH (subject to certain exceptions). All such obligations, and the guarantees of such obligations, are secured, subject to permitted liens and other exceptions, by a first priority lien shared between the senior secured credit facilities and the 5.50% Senior Secured Notes on substantially all of MPH’s and the subsidiary guarantors’ tangible and intangible property, and a pledge of all of the capital stock of each of their respective subsidiaries.
Critical Accounting Policies
In preparing our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, we are required to make judgments, assumptions and estimates, which we believe are reasonable and prudent based on the available facts and circumstances. These judgments, assumptions and estimates affect certain of our revenues and expenses and their related balance sheet accounts and disclosure of our contingent liabilities. We base our assumptions and estimates primarily on historical experience and consider known and projected trends. On an ongoing basis, we re-evaluate our selection of assumptions and the method of calculating our estimates. Actual results, however, may materially differ from our calculated estimates, and this difference would be reported in our current operations.
For a detailed description of our critical accounting estimates, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in Part II, Item 7 in our 2021 Annual Report. For a detailed discussion of our significant accounting policies, see Note 2 of Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8, “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” in our 2021 Annual Report. As of June 30, 2022, our critical accounting policies and estimates have not changed from those described in our 2021 Annual Report.
Customer Concentration
Three customers individually accounted for 34%, 19% and 10% of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2021. The loss of the business of one or more of our larger customers could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. For further discussion on our customer concentration, please refer to Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our 2021 Annual Report.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Reference is made to our 2021 Annual Report and in particular Item 7A.“Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk” therein. As of June 30, 2022, there were no material changes in the market risks described in our 2021 Annual Report.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer, the Company conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act.
Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officers have concluded that, as of June 30, 2022, our disclosure controls and procedures were designed at a reasonable assurance level and were effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the six months ended June 30, 2022 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls
Management recognizes that a control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud or error, if any, have been detected.

Part II - Other Information
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
We are a defendant in various lawsuits and other pending and threatened litigation and other adversarial matters as well as regulatory investigations, all of which have arisen in the ordinary course of business. While the ultimate outcome with respect to such proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, we believe they will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.
On March 25, 2021 and April 9, 2021, we were named as a defendant in two putative class action lawsuits relating to the Transactions that have since been consolidated under the caption In Re MultiPlan Corp. Stockholders Litigation, Consolidated C.A. No. 2021-0300-LWW (Del.Ch) ("Delaware Stockholder Litigation"). The Delaware Stockholder Litigation asserts breach of fiduciary duty claims and aiding and abetting breach of fiduciary duty claims against the former directors of the Churchill board, the Sponsor, KG and M. Klein (collectively, the "Churchill Defendants") and the Company. The Delaware Stockholder Litigation complaint alleges that the Transactions were a product of an unfair process by Churchill, which was allegedly impacted by conflicts of interest, resulting in mispricing of the Transactions. The complaint seeks, among other things, damages, certain equitable relief including the reopening of redemptions, and attorneys’ fees and costs. The Company and the Churchill Defendants filed motions to dismiss the complaint. On January 3, 2022, the Chancery Court issued a ruling granting in part the Company’s motion to dismiss and denying the motion to dismiss filed by the Churchill Defendants. The Company is therefore dismissed from the Delaware Stockholder Litigation, which is proceeding against the Churchill Defendants. The Company has agreed to indemnify certain of the Churchill Defendants with respect to the Delaware Stockholder Litigation.
We cannot reasonably estimate a potential future loss or a range of potential future losses and have not recorded a contingent liability accrual in connection with these matters as of June 30, 2022.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
There have been no material changes during the six months ended June 30, 2022 to the risk factors previously disclosed in Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in the Company's 2021 Annual Report.
