Information Concerning Forward-Looking Statements

This report contains certain statements related to future results, or states our intentions, beliefs and expectations or predictions for the future, which are forward-looking statements as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward‑looking statements relate to expectations or forecasts of future events. Such statements use words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “contemplate,” “forecast,” “project,” “intend,” “plan,” “potential,” and other similar terms, and future or conditional tense verbs like “could,” “may,” “might,” “see,” “should,” “will” and “would.” You can also identify forward-looking statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. For example, we may use forward-looking statements when addressing topics such as: the impact of general economic conditions, including significant inflation, increased interest rates and market uncertainty; the effects of political volatility, including repercussions from the war in Ukraine; market and industry conditions, including competitive and pricing trends; acquisition strategy including the expected size of our acquisition program; the expected impact of acquisitions and dispositions and integrating recent acquisitions, including comments regarding the expected benefits of our acquisition of the Willis Towers Watson plc treaty reinsurance brokerage operations (which we refer to as Willis Re) and BCHR Holdings, L.P., and its subsidiaries, dba Buck (which we refer to as Buck) and the expected duration and costs of integrating Willis Re and Buck, respectively; the development and performance of our services and products; changes in the composition or level of our revenues or earnings; our cost structure and the size and outcome of cost-saving or restructuring initiatives; future capital expenditures; future debt levels and anticipated actions to be taken in connection with maturing debt; future debt to earnings ratios; the outcome of contingencies; dividend policy; pension obligations; cash flow and liquidity; capital structure and financial losses; future actions by regulators; the outcome of existing regulatory actions, audits, reviews or litigation; the impact of changes in accounting rules; financial markets; interest rates; foreign exchange rates; matters relating to our operations; income taxes; expectations regarding our investments, human capital management, including diversity and inclusion initiatives; and environmental, social and governance matters, including climate-resilience products and services and carbon emissions. These forward‑looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from either historical or anticipated results depending on a variety of factors.

Potential factors that could impact results include:

•
A recession or economic downturn, as well as unstable economic conditions, including inflation and related monetary policy responses and failures of financial institutions and other counterparties;
•
Economic conditions that result in financial difficulties for underwriting enterprises or lead to reduced risk-taking capital capacity, including the increased risk of errors and omissions claims against us;
•
A disaster or other significant disruption to business continuity, including natural disasters and political violence and unrest in the United States (U.S.) or elsewhere around the world; for example, our substantial operations in India could be negatively impacted as a result of the dispute between India and Pakistan involving the Kashmir region, rising tensions between India and China, incidents of terrorism in India, civil unrest or other reasons;
•
Risks related to Willis Re and Buck, including risks related to our ability to successfully integrate their operations, the possibility that our assumptions may be inaccurate resulting in unforeseen obligations or liabilities and failure to realize the expected benefits of these acquisitions;
•
Risks that could negatively affect the success of our acquisition strategy, including the impact of current economic uncertainty on our ability to source, review and price acquisitions, continuing consolidation in our industry and interest in acquiring insurance brokers on the part of private equity firms and newly public insurance brokers, which makes it more difficult to identify targets and in some cases makes them more expensive, the risk that we may not receive timely regulatory approval of desired transactions, execution risks, integration risks, poor cultural fit, the risk of post-acquisition deterioration leading to intangible asset impairment charges, and the risk we could incur or assume unanticipated liabilities such as cybersecurity issues or those relating to violations of anti-corruption and sanctions laws;
•
Damage to our reputation, including as a result of environmental, social and governance (which we refer to as ESG) matters;
•
Failure to meet our ESG-related aspirations, goals and initiatives;
•
Failure to apply technology, data analytics and artificial intelligence effectively in driving value for our clients through technology-based solutions, or failure to gain internal efficiencies and effective internal controls through the application of technology and related tools;
•
Failure to attract and retain experienced and qualified talent, including our senior management team, or adequately plan for the succession of such leaders;
•
Sustained increases in the cost of employee benefits and compensation expense;

- 2 -

•
Risks arising from our international operations and changes in international conditions, including the risks posed by political and economic uncertainty in certain countries (including repercussions from the war in Ukraine), risks related to maintaining regulatory and legal compliance across multiple jurisdictions (such as those relating to violations of anti‑corruption, sanctions, protectionism and privacy laws and increased regulatory focus on climate change and sustainability issues), as well as risks related to tariffs, trade wars, political violence and unrest in the U.S. or around the world, or climate change and other long-term environmental, social and governance matters and global health risks;
•
Risks related to changes in U.S. or foreign tax laws, including a U.S. or foreign tax rate change, potential changes in guidance related to the U.S. Inflation Reduction Act, the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development’s (OECD) global minimum corporate tax regime and other local policy changes;
•
Substantial increase in remote work among our employees, which may affect our corporate culture, productivity, collaboration and effective communication, increase cybersecurity or data breaches risks, heighten vulnerability to solicitations by competing firms and impact our ability to recruit and retain employees that prefer fully remote or fully in person work environments;
•
Competitive pressures, including as a result of innovation, in each of our businesses;
•
Volatility or declines in premiums or other adverse trends in the insurance industry;
•
The higher level of variability inherent in contingent and supplemental revenues versus standard commission revenues;
•
Risks particular to our benefit consulting operations, including risks related to the acquisition of Buck;
•
Risks particular to our third-party claims administrations operations, including risks related to the availability of RISX‑FACS®, our proprietary risk management information system, wage inflation, staffing shortages, any slowing of the trend toward outsourcing claims administration, and the concentration of large amounts of revenue with certain clients;
•
Climate risks, including the risk of a systemic economic crisis and disruptions to our business caused by the transition to a low-carbon economy;
•
Cyber-attacks or other cybersecurity incidents such as the ransomware incident we publicly disclosed in September 2020 and the heightened risk of such attacks as a result of the war in Ukraine; improper disclosure of confidential, personal or proprietary data and changes to laws and regulations governing cybersecurity and data privacy;
•
Violations or alleged violations of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (which we refer to as FCPA), the United Kingdom (U.K.) Bribery Act 2010 or other anti-corruption laws and the Foreign Account Tax Compliance provisions of the Hiring Incentives to Restore Employment Act (which we refer to as FATCA) and the outcome of any existing or future investigation, review, regulatory action or litigation;
•
Our failure to comply with regulatory requirements, including those related to governance and control requirements in particular jurisdictions, international sanctions, including new sanctions laws as a result of the war in Ukraine, laws relating to the use of generative artificial intelligence, or a change in regulations or enforcement policies that adversely affects our operations (for example, relating to insurance broker compensation methods);
•
The further spread of COVID-19, including new variants, and its effect on the economy, our employees, our clients, the regulatory environment and our operations;
•
Unfavorable determinations related to contingencies and legal proceedings;
•
Changes to our financial presentation from new accounting estimates and assumptions;
•
Intellectual property risks;
•
Risks related to our legacy clean energy investments, including intellectual property claims, environmental and product liability claims, environmental compliance costs and the risk of disallowance by the Internal Revenue Service (which we refer to as the IRS) of previously claimed tax credits;
•
The risk that our outstanding debt adversely affects our financial flexibility and restrictions and limitations in the agreements and instruments governing our debt;
•
The risk of credit rating downgrades;
•
The risk we may not be able to receive dividends or other distributions from subsidiaries, including the effects of significant changes in foreign exchange rates;

- 3 -

•
The risk of share ownership dilution when we issue common stock as consideration for acquisitions and for other reasons and
•
Volatility of the price of our common stock.

Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance. They involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including the risk factors referred to above. Our future performance and actual results or outcomes may differ materially from those expressed in forward-looking statements. Accordingly, you should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of, and are based on information available to us on, the date of the applicable document.

Notes to June 30, 2023 Consolidate d Financial Statements (Unaudited)

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Terms Used in Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

ASC - Accounting Standards Codification.

ASU - Accounting Standards Update.

FASB - The Financial Accounting Standards Board.

GAAP - U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

IRC - Internal Revenue Code.

IRS - Internal Revenue Service.

Underwriting enterprises - Insurance companies, reinsurance companies and various other forms of risk-taking entities, including intermediaries of underwriting enterprises.

Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation

Arthur J. Gallagher & Co. and its subsidiaries, collectively referred to herein as we, our, us, Gallagher or the company, provide insurance and reinsurance brokerage, consulting and third party claims settlement and administration services to both domestic and international entities. We have three reportable segments: brokerage, risk management and corporate. Our brokers, agents and administrators act as intermediaries between underwriting enterprises and our clients.

Our brokerage segment operations provide brokerage and consulting services to companies and entities of all types, including commercial, not-for-profit, public entities, and, to a lesser extent, individuals, in the areas of insurance and reinsurance placement, risk of loss management, and management of employer sponsored benefit programs. Our risk management segment operations provide contract claim settlement, claim administration, loss control services and risk management consulting for commercial, not-for-profit, captive and public entities, and various other organizations that choose to self-insure property/casualty coverages or choose to use a third‑party claims management organization rather than the claim services provided by underwriting enterprises. The corporate segment reports the financial information related to our debt and other corporate costs, legacy clean energy investments, external acquisition‑related expenses and the impact of foreign currency translation. Legacy clean energy investments consist of our investments in limited liability companies that own 35 commercial clean coal production facilities that produced refined coal using Chem-Mod LLC’s proprietary technologies. We believe these operations produced refined coal that qualifies for tax credits under IRC Section 45.

We do not assume insurance underwriting risk on a net basis, other than with respect to de minimis amounts necessary to provide minimum or regulatory capital to organize captives, pools, specialized underwriters or risk-retention groups. Rather, capital necessary for covering losses is provided by underwriting enterprises.

Investment income and other revenues are primarily generated from our premium financing operations, our invested cash and restricted cash we hold on behalf of our clients, as well as clean energy investments. In addition, our share of the net earnings related to partially owned entities that are accounted for using the equity method is included in investment income.

We are a global insurance brokerage, risk management and consulting services firm, headquartered in Rolling Meadows, Illinois. We provide these services in approximately 130 countries around the world through our owned operations and a network of correspondent brokers and consultants.

We have prepared the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein are, in the opinion of management, prepared on a basis consistent with our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, and include all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the information set forth. The quarterly results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be reported for subsequent quarters or the full year. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. In the preparation of our unaudited consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2023, management evaluated all material subsequent events or transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date through the date on which the financial statements were issued, for potential recognition and/or disclosure therein.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. These accounting principles require us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and revenues and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our consolidated financial statements. We periodically evaluate our estimates and assumptions, including those relating to the valuation of goodwill and other intangible assets, right-of-use assets, investments (including our IRC Section 45 investments), income taxes, revenue recognition, deferred costs, stock-based compensation, claims handling obligations, retirement plans, litigation and contingencies. We base our estimates on historical experience and various assumptions that we believe to be reasonable based on specific circumstances. Such estimates and assumptions could change in the future as more information becomes known, which could impact the amounts reported and disclosed in the notes herein.

Change in Presentation of Fiduciary Assets and Liabilities

In first quarter 2023, we revised the presentation of certain amounts in our consolidated balance sheet and statement of cash flows primarily to separately identify and present fiduciary assets and liabilities. Specifically, we have reclassified prior period balances of fiduciary assets historically included in restricted cash and premiums and fees receivable into a new line on the balance sheet, fiduciary assets. Additionally, we have made certain immaterial revisions to fiduciary related balances including premiums receivable and premiums payable to underwriting enterprises related to the former Willis Re operations from gross to a net presentation to align to our accounting policy and presentation. We also added a new accounts receivable, net line in the balance sheet that includes accrued agency billed commissions, fees, supplemental commissions, direct bill commissions and contingent commission receivables due to Gallagher. Fiduciary assets represent cash held and insurance and reinsurance receivables that relate to our clients and are held on their behalf. Fiduciary liabilities represent the corresponding amounts that are owed to underwriting enterprises on behalf of our clients. We made the applicable revisions and reclassifications to the prior-period amounts to conform to the current period presentation. These changes had no impact on the consolidated statement of earnings, comprehensive earnings or stockholders’ equity for all periods presented. Additionally, these revisions did not impact our previously reported net increase in total cash (i.e., net cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash in the aggregate on our statement of cash flows).

The revisions and reclassifications to the presentation of the consolidated balance sheet include the following:

Assets

•
Restricted cash line was removed. Amounts were reclassified to cash and cash equivalents and fiduciary assets. See Note 13 - Supplemental Disclosures of Cash Flow Information for a reconciliation of our end of period cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and fiduciary cash balances.
•
A new fiduciary assets line was added. Amounts were reclassified from restricted cash and premiums and fees receivable.
•
A new accounts receivable, net line was added. Amounts were reclassified from premiums and fees receivable and other current assets.
•
The premiums and fees receivable line was removed.

Liabilities

•
A new fiduciary liabilities line item was added. Amounts were reclassified from premiums payable to underwriting enterprises.

- 13 -

•
The premiums payable to underwriting enterprises was removed.

The revisions and reclassifications to the presentation of the consolidated statement of cash flows include the following:

Net cash provided by operating activities

•
The net change in premiums and fees receivable was removed.
•
A new net change in accounts receivable, net was added.
•
The net change in premiums payable to underwriting enterprises was removed.

Net cash provided (used) by financing activities

•
A new net change in fiduciary assets and liabilities was added.

In addition to these changes, we moved the net change in fiduciary assets and liabilities from the operating section to the financing section of the statement of cash flows.

On April 3, 2023, we acquired the partnership interests of BCHR holdings, L.P. and its subsidiaries dba Buck (which we refer to as Buck). We funded the transaction using free cash flow and funds received from an unsecured senior notes offering. Buck was a leading provider of retirement, human resources and employee benefits consulting and administration services operating for more than 100 years with a diverse client base by both size and industry. Immediately prior to closing, Buck had over 2,300 employees, including more than 220 credentialed actuaries, primarily serving customers throughout the U.S., Canada and the U.K.

Common shares issued in connection with acquisitions are valued at closing market prices as of the effective date of the applicable acquisition or on the days when the shares are issued, if purchase consideration is deferred. We record escrow deposits that are returned to us as a result of adjustments to net assets acquired as reductions of goodwill when the escrows are settled. The maximum potential earnout payables disclosed in the foregoing table represent the maximum amount of additional consideration that could be paid pursuant to the terms of the purchase agreement for the applicable acquisition. The amounts recorded as earnout payables, which are primarily based upon the estimated future operating results of the acquired entities over a two- to three-year period subsequent to the acquisition date, are measured at fair value as of the acquisition date and are included on that basis in the recorded purchase price consideration in the foregoing table. We will record subsequent changes in these estimated earnout obligations, including the accretion of discount, in our consolidated statement of earnings when incurred.

The fair value of these earnout obligations is based on the present value of the expected future payments to be made to the sellers of the acquired entities in accordance with the provisions outlined in the respective purchase agreements, which is a Level 3 fair value measurement. In determining fair value, we estimated the acquired entity’s future performance using financial projections developed by management for the acquired entity and market participant assumptions that were derived for revenue growth and/or profitability. Revenue growth rates generally ranged from 5.0% to 20.0% for our 2023 acquisitions. We estimated future payments using the earnout formula and performance targets specified in each purchase agreement and the financial projections just described. We then discounted these payments to present value using a risk-adjusted rate that takes into consideration market-based rates of return that reflect the ability of the acquired entity to achieve the targets. The discount rate was 9.0% for all of our 2023 acquisitions. Changes in financial projections, market participant assumptions for revenue growth and/or profitability, or the risk-adjusted discount rate, would result in a change in the fair value of recorded earnout obligations.

During the three-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we recognized $19.8 million and $14.0 million, respectively, of expense in our consolidated statement of earnings related to the accretion of the discount recorded for earnout obligations in connection with our acquisitions. During the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we recognized $39.6 million and $23.4 million, respectively, of expense in our consolidated statement of earnings related to the accretion of the discount recorded for earnout obligations in connection with our acquisitions. In addition, during the three-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we recognized $10.4 million and $47.8 million of income, respectively, related to net adjustments in the estimated fair value of the liability for earnout obligations in connection with revised assumptions due to changes in interest rates, volatility and other assumptions and projections of future performance for 34 and 30 acquisitions, respectively. In addition, during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we recognized $11.6 million of expense and $36.3 million of income, respectively, related to net adjustments in the estimated fair value of the liability for earnout obligations in connection with revised assumptions due to changes in interest rates, volatility and other assumptions and projections of future performance for 45 and 50 acquisitions, respectively. The net adjustments in the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2023, include changes made to the estimated fair value of the Willis Re acquisition earnout and reflect updated assumptions as of June 30, 2023. The aggregate amount of maximum earnout obligations related to acquisitions was $1,899.1 million as of June 30, 2023, of which $990.8 million was recorded in the consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2023, based on the estimated fair value of the expected future payments to be made, of which approximately $571.4 million can be settled in cash or stock at our option and $419.4 million must be settled in cash.

The following is a summary of the estimated fair values of the net assets acquired at the date of each acquisition made in the six-month period ended June 30, 2023 (in millions):

Among other things, these acquisitions allow us to expand into desirable geographic locations, further extend our presence in the retail and wholesale insurance and reinsurance brokerage markets and increase the volume of general services currently provided. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of the tangible net assets acquired at the acquisition date was allocated to goodwill, expiration lists, non-compete agreements and trade names in the amounts of $858.7 million, $549.9 million, $11.4 million and $3.9 million, respectively, within the brokerage segment.

Provisional estimates of fair value are established at the time of each acquisition and are subsequently reviewed and finalized within the first year of operations subsequent to the acquisition date to determine the necessity for adjustments. During this period, we may use independent third-party valuation specialists to assist us in finalizing the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Fair value adjustments, if any, are most common to the values established for amortizable intangible assets, including expiration lists, non‑compete agreements, acquired software, and for earnout liabilities, with the offset to goodwill, net of any income tax effect.

The fair value of the tangible assets and liabilities for each applicable acquisition at the acquisition date approximated their carrying values. In general, the fair value of expiration lists was established using the excess earnings method, which is an income approach based on estimated financial projections developed by management for each acquired entity using market participant assumptions. Revenue growth and attrition rates generally ranged from 3.0% to 5.0% and 5.0% to 25.5%, respectively, for our 2022 acquisitions for which valuations were performed in 2023. We estimate the fair value as the present value of the benefits anticipated from ownership of the subject expiration list in excess of returns required on the investment in contributory assets necessary to realize those benefits. The rate used to discount the net benefits was based on a risk-adjusted rate that takes into consideration market-based rates of return and reflects the risk of the asset relative to the acquired business. The discount rates ranged from 9.0% to 11.0% for our 2022 acquisitions for which valuations were performed in 2023. The fair value of non-compete agreements was established using the profit differential method, which is an income approach based on estimated financial projections developed by management for the acquired company using market participant assumptions and various non-compete scenarios.

Expiration lists, non-compete agreements and trade names related to our acquisitions are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives (two to fifteen years for expiration lists, two to six years for non-compete agreements and two to fifteen years for trade names), while goodwill is not subject to amortization. We use the straight-line method to amortize these intangible assets because the pattern of their economic benefits cannot be reasonably determined with any certainty. We review all of our identifiable intangible assets for impairment periodically (at least annually) and whenever events or changes in business circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the assets may not be recoverable. In reviewing identifiable intangible assets, if the undiscounted future cash flows were less than the carrying amount of the respective (or underlying) asset, an indicator of impairment would exist and further analysis would be required to determine whether or not a loss would need to be charged against current period earnings as a component of amortization expense. Based on the results of impairment reviews during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we wrote off $3.2 million and $0.4 million, respectively, of amortizable assets related to the brokerage and risk management segments.

Of the $549.9 million of expiration lists, $11.4 million of non-compete agreements and $3.9 million of trade names related to our acquisitions made during the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, $413.7 million, $10.6 million and $2.6 million, respectively, are not expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. Accordingly, we recorded a deferred tax liability of $105.4 million, and a corresponding amount of goodwill, in the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, related to the nondeductible amortizable intangible assets.

Our consolidated financial statements for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023 include the operations of the entities acquired in the six-month period ended June 30, 2023 from their respective acquisition dates. The following is a summary of the unaudited pro forma historical results, as if these entities had been acquired at January 1, 2022 (in millions, except per share data):

| Three-month period ended |  |  | Six-month period ended |
| June 30, |  |  | June 30, |
| 2023 |  |  | 2022 |  |  | 2023 |  |  | 2022 |
Total revenues | $ | 2,447.6 |  |  | $ | 2,146.3 |  |  | $ | 5,250.6 |  |  | $ | 4,686.8 |
Net earnings attributable to controlling interests |  | 234.8 |  |  |  | 283.4 |  |  |  | 724.3 |  |  |  | 726.1 |
Basic net earnings per share |  | 1.09 |  |  |  | 1.34 |  |  |  | 3.38 |  |  |  | 3.45 |
Diluted net earnings per share |  | 1.07 |  |  |  | 1.32 |  |  |  | 3.31 |  |  |  | 3.38 |

The unaudited pro forma results above have been prepared for comparative purposes only and do not purport to be indicative of the results of operations which actually would have resulted had these acquisitions occurred at January 1, 2022, nor are they necessarily indicative of future operating results. Annualized revenues of entities acquired during the six-month period ended June 30, 2023 totaled approximately $418.1 million. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, total revenues and net loss recorded in our unaudited consolidated statement of earnings related to our acquisitions made during the six-month period ended June 30, 2023 in the aggregate, were $110.3 million and $(11.3) million, respectively.

4. Contracts with Customers

Contract Assets and Liabilities/Contract Balances

Information about unbilled receivables, contract assets and contract liabilities from contracts with customers is as follows (in millions):

|  | June 30, 2023 |  |  | December 31, 2022 |
Unbilled receivables |  | $ | 1,293.7 |  |  | $ | 910.9 |
Deferred contract costs |  |  | 107.6 |  |  |  | 144.5 |
Deferred revenue |  |  | 718.5 |  |  |  | 609.3 |

The unbilled receivables, which are included in accounts receivable in our consolidated balance sheet, primarily relate to our rights to consideration for work completed but not billed at the reporting date. These are transferred to the receivables when the client is billed. The deferred contract costs represent the costs we incur to fulfill a new or renewal contract with our clients prior to the effective date of the contract. These costs are expensed on the contract effective date. The deferred revenue in the consolidated balance sheet includes amounts that represent the remaining performance obligations under our contracts and amounts collected related to advanced billings and deposits received from customers that may or may not ultimately be recognized as revenues in the future. Deposits received from customers could be returned to the customers based on lesser actual transactional volume than originally billed volume.

Significant changes in the deferred revenue balances, which include foreign currency translation adjustments, during the period are as follows (in millions):

|  |  |  |  | Risk |  |  |  |
|  | Brokerage |  |  | Management |  |  | Total |
Deferred revenue at December 31, 2022 |  | $ | 434.0 |  |  | $ | 175.3 |  |  | $ | 609.3 |
Incremental deferred revenue |  |  | 393.6 |  |  |  | 52.6 |  |  |  | 446.2 |

Deferred revenue at June 30, 2023 |  | $ | 545.9 |  |  | $ | 172.6 |  |  | $ | 718.5 |

Revenue recognized during the six-month period ended June 30, 2023 in the table above included revenue from 2022 acquisitions that would not be reflected in prior periods.

Remaining Performance Obligations

Remaining performance obligations represent the portion of the contract price for which work has not been performed. As of June 30, 2023, the aggregate amount of the contract price allocated to remaining performance obligations was $718.5 million. The estimated revenue expected to be recognized in the future related to performance obligations that are unsatisfied (or partially unsatisfied) at the end of the reporting period is as follows (in millions):

|  | Brokerage |  |  | Risk Management |  |  | Total |
2023 (remaining six months) |  | $ | 425.6 |  |  | $ | 86.4 |  |  | $ | 512.0 |

Total |  | $ | 545.9 |  |  | $ | 172.6 |  |  | $ | 718.5 |

Deferred Contract Costs

We capitalize costs incurred to fulfill contracts as deferred contract costs which are included in other current assets in our consolidated balance sheet. Deferred contract costs were $107.6 million and $144.5 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022,

- 18 -

respectively. Capitalized fulfillment costs are amortized to expense on the contract effective date. The amount of amortization of the deferred contract costs was $306.7 million and $274.5 million for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

We have applied the practical expedient to recognize the incremental costs of obtaining contracts as an expense when incurred if the amortization period of the assets that we otherwise would have recognized is one year or less for our brokerage segment. These costs are included in compensation and operating expenses in our consolidated statement of earnings.

On June 22, 2023, we entered into a new Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with an administrative agent and a group of other lenders. The Credit Agreement provides for a five-year unsecured revolving credit facility in the amount of $1,200,000,000 (including a $75,000,000 letter of credit sub-facility), which is also available in Pounds Sterling, Canadian Dollars, Australian Dollars, New Zealand Dollars, Euros, Japanese Yen and any other currencies agreed by the lenders. We may also, upon the agreement of either one or more of the then-existing lenders or of additional banks not currently party to the Credit Agreement, increase the

- 21 -

commitments under the Credit Agreement up to $1,700,000,000. The Credit Agreement permits us to designate wholly-owned subsidiaries located in certain jurisdictions as additional borrowers, the obligations of which under the Credit Agreement will be guaranteed by the Company, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement. Any subsidiary that guarantees any notes under the Company’s existing note purchase agreements is required to guarantee the obligations under the Credit Agreement. There are currently no subsidiary borrowers or guarantors under the Credit Agreement.

Loans borrowed under the Credit Agreement bear interest at a variable annual rate based on a customary benchmark rate for each available currency Secured Overnight Financing Rate (which we refer to as SOFR) (for loans in U.S. Dollars), or at our election solely for loans in U.S. Dollars, the base rate, plus in each case an applicable margin. The applicable margin is determined by reference to the rating of our long-term senior unsecured debt. Subject to certain conditions stated in the Credit Agreement, we may borrow, prepay and reborrow amounts under the Credit Agreement at any time during the term of the Credit Agreement. Funds borrowed under the Credit Agreement may be used for general corporate and working capital purposes of the Company and its subsidiaries.

The Credit Agreement also contains customary representations and warranties and affirmative and negative covenants, including financial covenants, as well as customary events of default, with corresponding grace periods, including, without limitation, payment defaults, cross-defaults to other agreements evidencing indebtedness and bankruptcy-related defaults.

Concurrently, on June 22, 2023, we paid off and terminated all of our obligations under the Second Amended and Restated Multicurrency Credit Agreement, dated as of June 7, 2019.

On March 2, 2023, we closed and funded an offering of $950.0 million of unsecured senior notes in two tranches. The $350.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.50% Senior Notes are due 2033 (which we refer to as the 2033 Notes) and $600.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.75% Senior Notes are due 2053 (which we refer to as the 2053 Notes). The weighted average interest rate is 5.05% per annum after giving effect to underwriting costs and a net hedge gain. During 2019 through 2022, we entered into a pre‑issuance interest rate hedging transaction related to these notes. We realized a net cash gain of approximately $112.7 million on the hedging transactions that will be recognized on a pro rata basis as a decrease to our reported interest expense over ten years. We used the proceeds of these offerings to fund acquisitions, earnout payments related to acquisitions and general corporate purposes.

7. Earnings Per Share

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net earnings per share (in millions, except per share data):

| Three-month period ended |  |  | Six-month period ended |
| June 30, |  |  | June 30, |
| 2023 |  |  | 2022 |  |  | 2023 |  |  | 2022 |
Net earnings attributable to controlling interests | $ | 234.5 |  |  | $ | 284.2 |  |  | $ | 721.0 |  |  | $ | 722.9 |
Weighted average number of common shares outstanding |  | 214.9 |  |  |  | 210.2 |  |  |  | 213.8 |  |  |  | 209.6 |
Dilutive effect of stock options using the treasury stock method |  | 4.1 |  |  |  | 4.1 |  |  |  | 4.2 |  |  |  | 4.3 |
Weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding |  | 219.0 |  |  |  | 214.3 |  |  |  | 218.0 |  |  |  | 213.9 |
Basic net earnings per share | $ | 1.09 |  |  | $ | 1.35 |  |  | $ | 3.37 |  |  | $ | 3.45 |
Diluted net earnings per share | $ | 1.07 |  |  | $ | 1.33 |  |  | $ | 3.31 |  |  | $ | 3.38 |

Anti-dilutive stock-based awards of 1.1 million and 2.3 million shares were outstanding at the three-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, that were excluded in the computation of the dilutive effect of stock-based awards for the three-month periods then ended. Anti-dilutive stock-based awards of 0.7 million and 1.7 million shares were outstanding at the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, that were excluded in the computation of the dilutive effect of stock-based awards for the six-month periods then ended. These stock‑based awards were excluded from the computation because the exercise prices on these stock‑based awards were greater than the average market price of our common shares during the respective period, and therefore, would be anti‑dilutive to earnings per share under the treasury stock method.

8. Stock Option Plans

On May 10, 2022, our stockholders approved the Arthur J. Gallagher & Co. 2022 Long-Term Incentive Plan (which we refer to as the LTIP), which replaced our previous stockholder-approved Arthur J. Gallagher & Co. 2017 Long-Term Incentive Plan (which we refer to as the 2017 LTIP). The LTIP term began May 10, 2022 and terminates on the date of the annual meeting of stockholders in 2032, unless terminated earlier by our board of directors. All of our officers, employees and non-employee directors are eligible to receive awards under the LTIP. The compensation committee of our board of directors determines the annual number of shares delivered under the LTIP. The LTIP provides for non-qualified and incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and restricted stock units, any or all of which may be made contingent upon the achievement of performance criteria.

Shares of our common stock available for issuance under the LTIP include authorized and unissued shares of common stock or authorized and issued shares of common stock reacquired and held as treasury shares or otherwise, or a combination thereof. The number of available shares will be reduced by the aggregate number of shares that become subject to outstanding awards granted under the LTIP. A maximum of 3.5 million shares issued for full value awards (i.e., awards other than stock options or stock appreciation rights) will be counted one-for-one against the 13.5 million share pool, and every share subject to a full value award in excess of such limit will count as 3.8 shares against the pool. To the extent that shares subject to an outstanding award granted under either the LTIP or prior equity plans are not issued or delivered by reason of the expiration, termination, cancellation or forfeiture of such award or by reason of the settlement of such award in cash, then such shares will again be available for grant under the LTIP.

The maximum number of shares available under the LTIP for restricted stock, restricted stock unit awards and performance unit awards settled with stock (i.e., all awards other than stock options and stock appreciation rights) was 2.8 million at June 30, 2023.

The LTIP provides for the grant of stock options, which may be either tax-qualified incentive stock options or non-qualified stock options and stock appreciation rights. The compensation committee determines the period for the exercise of a non-qualified stock option, tax-qualified incentive stock option or stock appreciation right, provided that no option can be exercised later than seven years after its date of grant. The exercise price of a non-qualified stock option or tax-qualified incentive stock option and the base price of a stock appreciation right cannot be less than 100% of the fair market value of a share of our common stock on the date of grant, provided that the base price of a stock appreciation right granted in tandem with an option will be the exercise price of the related option.

Upon exercise, the option exercise price may be paid in cash, by the delivery of previously owned shares of our common stock, through a net-exercise arrangement, or through a broker-assisted cashless exercise arrangement. The compensation committee determines all of the terms relating to the exercise, cancellation or other disposition of an option or stock appreciation right upon a

- 23 -

termination of employment, whether by reason of disability, retirement, death or any other reason. Stock option and stock appreciation right awards under the LTIP are non-transferable.

On March 15, 2023, the compensation committee granted 1,131,000 options under the LTIP to our officers and key employees that become exercisable at the rate of 34%, 33% and 33% on the anniversary date of the grant in 2026, 2027 and 2028. On February 1, 2022 and March 15, 2022, the compensation committee granted 1,197,000 and 1,141,000 options, respectively, under the 2017 LTIP to our officers and key employees that become exercisable at the rate of 34%, 33% and 33% on the anniversary date of the grant in 2025, 2026 and 2027, respectively. The 2023 and 2022 options expire seven years from the date of grant, or earlier in the event of certain terminations of employment. For our executive officers age 55 or older, stock options are not subject to forfeiture upon such officers’ departure from the company after two years from the date of grant.

During the three-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we recognized $7.8 million and $7.2 million, respectively, of compensation expense related to our stock option grants. During the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we recognized $15.5 million and $12.9 million, respectively, of compensation expense related to our stock option grants.

For purposes of expense recognition, the estimated fair values of the stock option grants are amortized to expense over the options’ vesting period. We estimated the fair value of stock options at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:

|  | 2023 |  |  | 2022 |
Expected dividend yield |  |  | 1.2 | % |  |  | 1.3 | %
Expected risk-free interest rate |  |  | 3.6 | % |  |  | 1.9 | %
Volatility |  |  | 25.0 | % |  |  | 23.1 | %
Expected life (in years) |  |  | 5.4 |  |  |  | 5.4 |

Option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility. The Black-Scholes option pricing model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. The weighted average fair value per option for all options granted during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, as determined on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, was $46.48 and $33.25, respectively.

The following is a summary of our stock option activity and related information for 2023 (in millions, except exercise price and year data):

|  | Six-month period ended June 30, 2023 |

Ending unvested and expected to vest |  |  | 5.6 |  |  | $ | 137.06 |  |  |  | 5.10 |  |  | $ | 462.8 |

Options with respect to 12.0 million shares (less any shares of restricted stock issued under the LTIP - see Note 10 to these unaudited consolidated financial statements) were available for grant under the LTIP at June 30, 2023.

The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was $123.8 million and $97.2 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2023, we had approximately $130.4 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to nonvested options. We expect to recognize that cost over a weighted average period of approximately four years.

9. Deferred Compensation

We have a Deferred Equity Participation Plan (which we refer to as the DEPP), which is a non-qualified plan that generally provides for distributions to certain of our key executives when they reach age 62 (or the one-year anniversary of the date of the grant for participants over the age of 61 as of the grant date) or upon or after their actual retirement if later. Under the provisions of the DEPP, we typically contribute cash in an amount approved by the compensation committee to a rabbi trust on behalf of the executives participating in the DEPP, and instruct the trustee to acquire a specified number of shares of our common stock on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions based on participant elections. Distributions under the DEPP may not normally be made until the participant reaches age 62 (or the one-year anniversary of the date of the grant for participants over the age of 61 as of the grant date) and are subject to forfeiture in the event of voluntary termination of employment prior to then. DEPP awards are generally made annually in the first quarter. In addition, we annually make awards under sub-plans of the DEPP for certain production staff, which generally provide for vesting and/or distributions no sooner than five years from the date of awards, although certain awards vest and/or distribute after the earlier of fifteen years or the participant reaching age 65. All contributions to the plan (including sub-plans) deemed to be invested in shares of our common stock are distributed in the form of our common stock and all other distributions are paid in cash.

Our common stock that is issued to or purchased by the rabbi trust as a contribution under the DEPP is valued at historical cost, which equals its fair market value at the date of grant or date of purchase. When common stock is issued, we record an unearned deferred compensation obligation as a reduction of capital in excess of par value in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet, which is amortized to compensation expense ratably over the vesting period of the participants. Future changes in the fair market value of our common stock owed to the participants do not have any impact on the amounts recorded in our consolidated financial statements.

In the first quarters of 2023 and 2022, the compensation committee approved $25.1 million and $26.3 million, respectively, of awards in the aggregate to certain key executives under the DEPP that were contributed to the rabbi trust in the first quarters of 2023 and 2022, respectively. We contributed cash to the rabbi trust and instructed the trustee to acquire a specified number of shares of our common stock on the open market to fund these 2023 and 2022 awards. During the three-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we charged $5.9 million and $5.0 million, respectively, to compensation expense related to these awards. During the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we charged $9.9 million and $8.5 million, respectively, to compensation expense related to these awards.

In the first quarters of 2023 and 2022, the compensation committee approved $3.0 million and $1.9 million, respectively, of awards under the sub-plans referred to above, which were contributed to the rabbi trust in the first quarters of 2023 and 2022, respectively. During the three-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we charged $0.8 million and $0.6 million, respectively, to compensation expense related to these awards. During the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we charged $1.4 million and $1.1 million, respectively, to compensation expense related to these awards. There were $6.4 million of distributions from the sub-plans during the six-month period ended June 30, 2023. There were no distributions from the sub-plans during the six-month period ended June 30, 2022.

- 25 -

At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we recorded $97.8 million (related to 2.6 million shares) and $77.7 million (related to 2.5 million shares), respectively, of unearned deferred compensation as a reduction of capital in excess of par value in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. The total intrinsic value of our unvested equity-based awards under the plan at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $566.9 million and $478.7 million, respectively. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, cash and equity awards with an aggregate fair value of $9.4 million were vested and distributed to executives under the DEPP. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2022, cash and equity awards with an aggregate fair value of $2.3 million were vested and distributed to executives under the DEPP.

We have a Deferred Cash Participation Plan (which we refer to as the DCPP), which is a non-qualified deferred compensation plan for certain key employees, other than executive officers, that generally provides for vesting and/or distributions no sooner than five years from the date of awards. Under the provisions of the DCPP, we typically contribute cash in an amount approved by the compensation committee to the rabbi trust on behalf of the executives participating in the DCPP, and instruct the trustee to acquire a specified number of shares of our common stock on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions based on participant elections. In the first quarters of 2023 and 2022, the compensation committee approved $9.8 million and $8.3 million, respectively, of awards in the aggregate to certain key executives under the DCPP that were contributed to the rabbi trust in the first quarters of 2023 and 2022, respectively. During the three-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we charged $4.2 million and $3.3 million, respectively, to compensation expense related to these awards. During the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we charged $8.0 million and $6.0 million, respectively, to compensation expense related to these awards. There were $19.5 million and $16.9 million of distributions from the DCPP during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

10. Restricted Stock, Performance Share and Cash Awards

Restricted Stock Awards

As discussed in Note 8 to these unaudited consolidated financial statements, on May 10, 2022, our stockholders approved the LTIP, which replaced our previous stockholder-approved 2017 LTIP. The LTIP provides for the grant of a stock award either as restricted stock or as restricted stock units to officers, employees and non-employee directors. In either case, the compensation committee may determine that the award will be subject to the attainment of performance measures over an established performance period. Stock awards and the related dividend equivalents are non-transferable and subject to forfeiture if the holder does not remain continuously employed with us during the applicable restriction period or, in the case of a performance-based award, if applicable performance measures are not attained. The compensation committee will determine all of the terms relating to the satisfaction of performance measures and the termination of a restriction period, or the forfeiture and cancellation of a restricted stock award upon a termination of employment, whether by reason of disability, retirement, death or any other reason.

The agreements awarding restricted stock units under the LTIP will specify whether such awards may be settled in shares of our common stock, cash or a combination of shares and cash and whether the holder will be entitled to receive dividend equivalents, on a current or deferred basis, with respect to such award. Prior to the settlement of a restricted stock unit, the holder of a restricted stock unit will have no rights as a stockholder of the company. The maximum number of shares available under the LTIP for restricted stock, restricted stock units and performance unit awards settled with stock (i.e., all awards other than stock options and stock appreciation rights) is 4.0 million. At June 30, 2023, 2.8 million shares were available for grant under the LTIP for such awards.

In the first quarters of 2023 and 2022, we granted 378,000 and 295,000 restricted stock units, respectively, to employees under the LTIP and 2017 LTIP, respectively, with an aggregate fair value of $67.0 million and $46.8 million, respectively, at the date of grant. These 2023 and 2022 awards of restricted stock units vest in full based on continued employment through March 15, 2028 and March 15, 2027, respectively. Additionally, in first quarter 2022, we granted 335,000 restricted stock units to employees under the 2017 LTIP, with an aggregate fair value of $52.6 million at the date of grant. These 2022 awards of restricted stock units vest in full based on continued employment through February 1, 2027. For our executive officers age 55 or older, restricted stock units are not subject to forfeiture upon such officers’ departure from the company after two years from the date of grant.

We account for restricted stock awards at historical cost, which equals its fair market value at the date of grant, which is amortized to compensation expense ratably over the vesting period of the participants. Future changes in the fair market value of our common stock that is owed to the participants do not have any impact on the amounts recorded in our consolidated financial statements. During the three-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we recognized $11.0 million and $10.1 million, respectively, to compensation expense related to restricted stock unit awards granted in 2016 through 2022. During the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we recognized $20.7 million and $17.7 million, respectively, to compensation expense related to restricted stock unit awards granted in 2016 through 2022. The total intrinsic value of unvested restricted stock units at June 30, 2023 and 2022 was $460.5 million and $353.1 million, respectively. During each of the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, equity awards (including accrued dividends) with an aggregate value of $62.0 million were vested and distributed to employees under this plan.

Performance Share Awards

On March 15, 2023 and March 15, 2022, pursuant to the LTIP and 2017 LTIP, respectively, the compensation committee approved 58,000 and 54,000, respectively, of provisional performance share awards, with an aggregate fair value of $10.3 million and $8.6 million, respectively, for future grants to our officers. Each performance share award was equivalent to the value of one share of our common stock on the date such provisional award was approved. At the end of the performance period, eligible participants will receive a number of earned shares based on the growth in adjusted EBITDAC per share (as defined in our 2023 Proxy Statement). Earned shares for the 2023 and 2022 provisional awards will fully vest based on continuous employment through March 15, 2026 and March 15, 2025, respectively, and will be settled in unrestricted shares of our common stock on a one-for-one basis as soon as practicable thereafter. The 2023 and 2022 awards are subject to a three-year performance period that began on January 1, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and vest on the three-year anniversary of the date of grant (March 15, 2026 and March 15, 2025). For certain of our executive officers age 55 or older, awards are no longer subject to forfeiture upon such officers’ departure from the company after two years from the date of grant. During the three-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we recognized $3.8 million and $3.7 million, respectively, to compensation expense related to performance share awards granted in 2019 through 2023. During the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we recognized $8.5 million and $7.5 million, respectively, to compensation expense related to performance share awards granted in 2019 through 2023. The total intrinsic value of unvested performance share awards at June 30, 2023 and 2022 was $64.3 million and $54.2 million, respectively. During the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, equity awards (including accrued dividends) with an aggregate fair value of $28.9 million and $21.8 million, respectively, were vested and distributed to employees under this plan.

Cash Awards

Pursuant to our Performance Unit Program (which we refer to as the Program), there were no units granted in the six-month period ended June 30, 2023. The Program consists of a one-year performance period based on our financial performance and a three-year vesting period measured from January 1 of the year of grant. At the discretion of the compensation committee and determined based on our performance, the eligible officer or key employee will be granted a percentage of the provisional cash award units that equates to the EBITAC growth achieved (as defined in the Program). At the end of the performance period, eligible participants will be granted a number of units based on achievement of the performance goal and subject to approval by the compensation committee. Granted units will fully vest based on continuous employment through the three-year vesting period. The ultimate award value will be equal to the trailing twelve-month price of our common stock, multiplied by the number of units subject to the award, but limited to between 0.5 and 1.5 times the original value of the units determined as of the grant date. The fair value of the awarded units will be paid out in cash as soon as practicable. If an eligible employee leaves us prior to the vesting date, the entire award will be forfeited.

On March 15, 2022, pursuant to the Program, the compensation committee approved provisional cash awards of $19.9 million in the aggregate for future grants to our officers and key employees that are denominated in units (125,000 units in the aggregate), each of which was equivalent to the value of one share of our common stock on the date the provisional award was approved. Terms of the 2022 provisional awards were similar to the terms of the 2023 provisional awards. During the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2023, we recognized $3.1 million and $5.7 million, respectively, to compensation expense related to these awards.

On March 16, 2021, pursuant to the Program, the compensation committee approved provisional cash awards of $18.8 million in the aggregate for future grants to our officers and key employees that are denominated in units (147,000 units in the aggregate), each of which was equivalent to the value of one share of our common stock on the date the provisional award was approved. Terms of the 2021 provisional awards were similar to the terms of the 2022 provisional awards. Based on our performance for 2021, we granted 143,000 units under the Program in the first quarter of 2022 that will fully vest on January 1, 2024. During the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2023, we recognized $3.2 million and $6.5 million, respectively, to compensation expense related to these awards.

On March 12, 2020, pursuant to the Program, the compensation committee approved provisional cash awards of $18.4 million in the aggregate for future grants to our officers and key employees that are denominated in units (213,000 units in the aggregate), each of which was equivalent to the value of one share of our common stock on the date the provisional award was approved. Terms of the 2020 provisional awards were similar to the terms of the 2022 provisional awards. Based on our performance for 2020, we granted 208,000 units under the Program in the first quarter of 2021 that will fully vest on January 1, 2023. During the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2023, we recognized $0.1 million to compensation expense related to these awards. During the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2022, we recognized $2.9 million and $6.0 million, respectively, to compensation expense related to these awards.

During the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, cash awards related to the 2020 provisional award with an aggregate fair value of $24.7 million (191,000 units in the aggregate) were vested and distributed to employees under the program. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2022, cash awards related to the 2019 provisional award with an aggregate fair value of $21.1 million (177,000 units in the aggregate) were vested and distributed to employees under the Program.

11. Derivatives and Hedging Activity

We are exposed to market risks, including changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. To manage the risk related to these exposures, we enter into various derivative instruments that reduce these risks by creating offsetting exposures. We generally do not enter into derivative transactions for trading or speculative purposes.

Foreign Exchange Risk Management

We are exposed to foreign exchange risk when we earn revenues, pay expenses, or enter into monetary intercompany transfers denominated in a currency that differs from our functional currency, or other transactions that are denominated in a currency other than our functional currency. We use foreign exchange derivatives, typically forward contracts and options, to reduce our overall exposure to the effects of currency fluctuations on cash flows. These exposures are hedged, on average, for less than three years.

Interest Rate Risk Management

We enter into various long-term debt agreements. We use interest rate derivatives, typically swaps, to reduce our exposure to the effects of interest rate fluctuations on the forecasted interest rates for up to three years into the future.

We have not received or pledged any collateral related to derivative arrangements at June 30, 2023.

The notional and fair values of derivatives designated as hedging instruments are as follows at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 (in millions):

For the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2023, the amount excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness for our foreign exchange contracts recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss was a gain of $0.3 million and $0.8 million, respectively. For the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2022, the amount excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness for our foreign exchange contracts recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss was a gain of $1.2 million and $0.5, respectively.

We estimate that approximately $5.1 million of pretax loss currently included within accumulated other comprehensive loss will be reclassified into earnings in the next twelve months.

12. Commitments, Contingencies and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

In connection with our investing and operating activities, we have entered into certain contractual obligations and commitments. Our future minimum cash payments, including interest, associated with our contractual obligations pursuant to the Senior Notes, Note Purchase Agreements, Credit Agreement, Premium Financing Debt Facility, operating leases and purchase obligations at June 30, 2023 were as follows (in millions):

The amounts presented in the table above may not necessarily reflect our actual future cash funding requirements, because the actual timing of the future payments made may vary from the stated contractual obligation.

Senior Notes, Note Purchase Agreements, Credit Agreement and Premium Financing Debt Facility - See Note 6 to these unaudited consolidated financial statements for a summary of the amounts outstanding under the Senior Notes, Note Purchase Agreements, the Credit Agreement and Premium Financing Debt Facility.

Operating Lease Obligations - Our corporate segment’s executive offices and certain subsidiary and branch facilities of our brokerage and risk management segments are located in a building we own at 2850 Golf Road, Rolling Meadows, Illinois, where we have approximately 360,000 square feet of space.

We generally operate in leased premises at our other locations. Certain of these leases have options permitting renewals for additional periods. In addition to minimum fixed rentals, a number of leases contain annual escalation clauses which are generally related to increases in an inflation index.

We have leased certain office space to several non-affiliated tenants under operating sublease arrangements. In the normal course of business, we expect that certain of these leases will not be renewed or replaced. We adjust charges for real estate taxes and common area maintenance annually based on actual expenses, and we recognize the related revenues in the year in which the expenses are incurred. These amounts are not included in the minimum future rentals to be received in the contractual obligations table above.

Outstanding Purchase Obligations - The amount disclosed in the contractual obligations table above represents the aggregate amount of unrecorded purchase obligations that we had outstanding at June 30, 2023. These obligations represent agreements to purchase goods or services that were executed in the normal course of business.

Off-Balance Sheet Commitments - Our total unrecorded commitments associated with outstanding letters of credit, and financial guarantees as of June 30, 2023 were as follows (in millions):

- 30 -

Since commitments may expire unused, the amounts presented in the table above do not necessarily reflect our actual future cash funding requirements. See the Off‑Balance Sheet Debt section below for a discussion of our letters of credit. All of the letters of credit represent multiple year commitments that have annual, automatic renewing provisions and are classified by the latest commitment date.

Since January 1, 2002, we have acquired 675 companies, all of which were accounted for using the acquisition method for recording business combinations. Substantially all of the purchase agreements related to these acquisitions contain provisions for potential earnout obligations. For all of our acquisitions made in the period from 2019 to 2023 that contain potential earnout obligations, such obligations are measured at fair value as of the acquisition date and are included on that basis in the recorded purchase price consideration for the respective acquisition. The amounts recorded as earnout payables are primarily based upon estimated future potential operating results of the acquired entities over a two- to three-year period subsequent to the acquisition date. The aggregate amount of the maximum earnout obligations related to these acquisitions was $1,899.1 million, of which $990.8 million was recorded in our consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2023 based on the estimated fair value of the expected future payments to be made, of which approximately $571.4 million can be settled in cash or stock at our option and $419.4 million must be settled in cash.

Off-Balance Sheet Debt - Our unconsolidated investment portfolio includes investments in enterprises where our ownership interest is between 1% and 50%, in which management has determined that our level of influence and economic interest is not sufficient to require consolidation. As a result, these investments are accounted for under the equity method. None of these unconsolidated investments had any outstanding debt at June 30, 2023 or December 31, 2022, that was recourse to us.

At June 30, 2023, we had posted two letters of credit totaling $9.2 million, in the aggregate, related to our self‑insurance deductibles, for which we had a recorded liability of $14.4 million. We have an equity investment in a rent-a-captive facility, which we use as a placement facility for certain of our insurance brokerage operations. At June 30, 2023, we had posted nine letters of credit totaling $8.3 million to allow certain of our captive operations to meet minimum statutory surplus requirements plus additional collateral related to premium and claim funds held in a fiduciary capacity, one letter of credit totaling $0.8 million for collateral related to claim funds held in a fiduciary capacity by a recent acquisition, and two letters of credit totaling $0.5 million as a security deposit for a 2015 acquisition’s lease. These letters of credit have never been drawn upon.

Litigation, Regulatory and Taxation Matters - We routinely are involved in legal proceedings, claims, disputes, regulatory matters and governmental inspections or investigations arising in the ordinary course of or incidental to our business, including those noted below in this section. We record accruals in the consolidated financial statements for pending litigation when we determine that an unfavorable outcome is probable and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. For the matters we disclose that do not include an estimate of the amount of loss or range of losses, such an estimate is not possible or is immaterial, and we may be unable to estimate the possible loss or range of losses that could potentially result from the application of non-monetary remedies, unless disclosed below. We currently believe that the ultimate outcome of these proceedings, individually and in the aggregate, will not materially harm our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, legal proceedings and government investigations are subject to inherent uncertainties, and unfavorable rulings or other adverse events could occur, including the payment of substantial monetary damages or an injunction or other order prohibiting us from selling one or more products at all or in particular ways, precluding particular business practices or requiring other remedies, which may result in a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations or financial position.

During third quarter 2022, we received a subpoena from the FCPA Unit of the U.S. Department of Justice seeking information related to our insurance business with public entities in Ecuador. We continue to fully cooperate with the investigation.

In July 2019, Midwest Energy Emissions Corp. and MES Inc. (which we refer to together as Midwest Energy) filed a patent infringement lawsuit in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware against us, Chem‑Mod LLC and numerous other related and unrelated parties. The complaint alleges that the named defendants’ infringe patents held exclusively by Midwest Energy and seeks unspecified damages and injunctive relief. Discovery is complete and the case is scheduled for trial in November 2023. We continue to defend this matter vigorously.

As previously disclosed, our IRC 831(b) (or “micro-captive”) advisory services business has been under audit by the IRS since 2013. Among other matters, the IRS is investigating whether we have been acting as a tax shelter promoter in connection with these operations. Additionally, the IRS is conducting a criminal investigation related to IRC 831(b) micro-captive underwriting enterprises. We have been advised that we are not a target of the criminal investigation. We are fully cooperating with both matters.

Contingent Liabilities - We purchase insurance to provide protection from errors and omissions (which we refer to as E&O) claims that may arise during the ordinary course of business. Currently we retain the first $15.0 million of each and every E&O claim. In addition, we retain, in aggregate, up to another $2.0 million between $15.0 million and $100.0 million, plus up to another $10.0 million between $100.0 million and $225.0 million, and up to another $20.0 million between $225.0 million and $400.0 million. We

- 31 -

have historically maintained self-insurance reserves for the portion of our E&O exposure that is not insured. We periodically determine a range of possible reserve levels using actuarial techniques that rely heavily on projecting historical claim data into the future. Our E&O reserve in the June 30, 2023 consolidated balance sheet is above the lower end of the most recently determined actuarial range by $3.4 million and below the upper end of the actuarial range by $10.5 million. We can make no assurances that the historical claim data used to project the current reserve levels will be indicative of future claim activity. Thus, the E&O reserve level and corresponding actuarial range could change in the future as more information becomes known, which could materially impact the amounts reported and disclosed herein.

Tax-advantaged Investments No Longer Held - Between 1996 and 2007, we developed and then sold portions of our ownership in various energy related investments, many of which qualified for tax credits under IRC Section 29. We recorded tax benefits in connection with our ownership in these investments. At June 30, 2023, we had exposure on $108.0 million of previously earned tax credits. Under the TCJA, a portion of these previously earned tax credits were refunded in 2019 for tax year 2018, according to a specific formula. Under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the CARES Act), which was passed on March 27, 2020, we accelerated the refund of all remaining credits on April 17, 2020, and the remaining credits were refunded to us in the second quarter of 2020. In 2004, 2007 and 2009, the IRS examined several of these investments and all examinations were closed without any changes being proposed by the IRS. However, any future adverse tax audits, administrative rulings or judicial decisions could disallow previously claimed tax credits.

Due to the contingent nature of this exposure and our related assessment of its likelihood, no reserve has been recorded in our June 30, 2023 consolidated balance sheet related to this exposure.

Fiduciary cash is included in fiduciary assets in our consolidated balance sheet.

We have a qualified contributory savings and thrift 401(k) plan covering the majority of our domestic employees. For eligible employees who have met the plan’s age and service requirements to receive matching contributions, we historically have matched 100% of pre-tax and Roth elective deferrals up to a maximum of 5.0% of eligible compensation, subject to federal limits on plan contributions and not in excess of the maximum amount deductible for federal income tax purposes. Beginning in 2021, the amount matched by the company will be discretionary and annually determined by management. Employees must be employed and eligible for the plan on the last day of the plan year to receive a matching contribution, subject to certain exceptions enumerated in the plan document. Matching contributions are subject to a five-year graduated vesting schedule and can be funded in cash or company stock. We expensed (net of plan forfeitures) $42.3 million and $40.0 million related to the plan in the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. During 2022, our board of directors authorized the 5.0% employer matching contribution on eligible compensation to the 401(k) plan for the 2022 plan year to be funded with our common stock, which was funded in February 2023. During 2021, our board of directors authorized the 5.0% employer matching contribution on eligible compensation to the 401(k) plan for the 2021 plan year to be funded with our common stock, which was funded in February 2022.

14. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss

The after-tax components of our accumulated other comprehensive loss attributable to controlling interests consist of the following (in millions):

|  |  |  |  | Foreign |  |  | Fair Value of |  |  | Accumulated |
|  | Pension |  |  | Currency |  |  | Derivative |  |  | Comprehensive |
|  | Liability |  |  | Translation |  |  | Investments |  |  | Loss |
Balance as of December 31, 2022 |  | $ | (49.4 | ) |  | $ | (1,125.2 | ) |  | $ | 34.2 |  |  | $ | (1,140.4 | )
Net change in period |  |  | 1.5 |  |  |  | 226.8 |  |  |  | 29.2 |  |  |  | 257.5 |
Balance as of June 30, 2023 |  | $ | (47.9 | ) |  | $ | (898.4 | ) |  | $ | 63.4 |  |  | $ | (882.9 | )

The foreign currency translation during the six-month period ended June 30, 2023 primarily relates to the net impact of changes in the value of the local currencies relative to the U.S. dollar for our operations in the U.K., Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the Caribbean, India and other non-U.S. locations. The reporting currency for our financial statements is the U.S. dollar. Certain of our assets, liabilities, expenses and revenues are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, primarily in British pound, Australian dollar, Canadian dollar and New Zealand dollar. To prepare our consolidated financial statements, we must translate those assets, liabilities, expenses and revenues into U.S. dollars at the applicable exchange rates. Assets and liabilities of non-U.S. dollar functional currency operations are translated into U.S. dollars at end-of-period exchange rates while revenues, expenses and cash flows are translated at average monthly exchange rates over the period. Equity is translated at historical exchange rates and the resulting cumulative translation adjustments are included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss in the consolidated balance sheet. The net change in the foreign currency translation during the six-month period ended June 30, 2023 primarily relates to goodwill (see Note 5 for the impact on goodwill) and amortizable intangible assets held by operations with a non-USD functional currency.

During the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, $2.6 million and $1.2 million, of expense, respectively, related to the pension liability was reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss to compensation expense in the statement of earnings. During the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, $1.5 million and $1.2 million of expense, respectively, related to the fair value of derivative investments, was reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss to the statement of earnings. During the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, no amounts related to foreign currency translation were reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss to the statement of earnings.

15. Segment Information

We have three reportable segments: brokerage, risk management and corporate.

The brokerage segment is primarily comprised of our retail and wholesale insurance brokerage operations. The brokerage segment generates revenues through commissions paid by underwriting enterprises and through fees charged to our clients. Our brokers, agents and administrators act as intermediaries between underwriting enterprises and our clients and we do not assume net underwriting risks.

The risk management segment provides contract claim settlement and administration services for enterprises and public entities that choose to self-insure some or all of their property/casualty coverages and for underwriting enterprises that choose to outsource some or all of their property/casualty claims departments. These operations also provide claims management, loss control consulting and insurance property appraisal services. Revenues are principally generated on a negotiated per-claim or per-service fee basis. Our risk management segment also provides risk management consulting services that are recognized as the services are delivered.

The corporate segment manages our clean energy and other investments. In addition, the corporate segment reports the financial information related to our debt and other corporate costs, external acquisition-related expenses and the impact of foreign currency remeasurements.

Allocations of investment income and certain expenses are based on reasonable assumptions and estimates primarily using revenue, headcount and other information. We allocate the provision for income taxes to the brokerage and risk management segments using the local country statutory rates. Reported operating results by segment would change if different methods were applied.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The discussion and analysis that follows relates to our financial condition and results of operations for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2023. Readers should review this information in conjunction with the June 30, 2023 unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes included in Item 1 of Part I of this quarterly report on Form 10‑Q and the audited consolidated financial statements and notes, and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, contained in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2022.

Prior Year Discussion of Results and Comparisons

For Information on fiscal second quarter 2022 results and similar comparisons, see “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of our Form 10-Q for the fiscal three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2022.

Information Regarding Non-GAAP Measures and Other

In the discussion and analysis of our results of operations that follows, in addition to reporting financial results in accordance with GAAP, we provide information regarding EBITDAC, EBITDAC margin, adjusted EBITDAC, adjusted EBITDAC margin, diluted net earnings per share, as adjusted (adjusted EPS), adjusted revenue, adjusted compensation and operating expenses, adjusted compensation expense ratio, adjusted operating expense ratio and organic revenue. These measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative to, the GAAP information provided in this quarterly report on Form 10‑Q. We believe that these presentations provide useful information to management, analysts and investors regarding financial and business trends relating to our results of operations and financial condition or because they provide investors with measures that our chief operating decision makers use when reviewing the company’s performance. See further below for definitions and additional reasons each of these measures is useful to investors. Our industry peers may provide similar supplemental non-GAAP information with respect to one or more of these measures, although they may not use the same or comparable terminology and may not make identical adjustments. The non-GAAP information we provide should be used in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the GAAP information provided. We make determinations regarding certain elements of executive officer incentive compensation, performance share awards and annual cash incentive awards, partly on the basis of measures related to adjusted EBITDAC.

Adjusted Non-GAAP presentation - We believe that the adjusted non-GAAP presentation of the current and prior period information presented on the following pages provides stockholders and other interested persons with useful information regarding certain financial metrics that may assist such persons in analyzing our operating results as they develop a future earnings outlook for us. The after-tax amounts related to the adjustments were computed using the normalized effective tax rate for each respective period.

•
Adjusted measures - We define these measures as revenues (for the brokerage segment), revenues before reimbursements (for the risk management segment), net earnings, compensation expense and operating expense, respectively, each adjusted to exclude the following, as applicable:
•
Net gains on divestitures, which are primarily net proceeds received related to sales of books of business and other divestiture transactions, such as the disposal of a business through sale or closure.
•
Acquisition integration costs, which include costs related to certain large acquisitions (including the acquisition of the Willis Towers Watson plc treaty reinsurance brokerage operations (which we refer to as the Willis Re acquisition) and of BCHR Holdings, L.P. and its subsidiaries, dba Buck (which we refer to as Buck)), outside the scope of our usual tuck-in strategy, not expected to occur on an ongoing basis in the future once we fully assimilate the applicable acquisition. These costs are typically associated with redundant workforce, compensation expense related to amortization of certain retention bonus arrangements, extra lease space, duplicate services and external costs incurred to assimilate the acquisition into our IT related systems.
•
Transaction-related costs, which are primarily associated with the acquisition of Willis Re (primarily related to deferred closings in certain jurisdictions in 2022) and the acquisition of Buck. These include costs related to regulatory filings, legal, accounting services, insurance and incentive compensation.
•
Workforce related charges, which primarily include severance costs (either accrued or paid) related to employee terminations and other costs associated with redundant workforce.
•
Lease termination related charges, which primarily include costs related to terminations of real estate leases and abandonment of leased space.
•
Acquisition related adjustments, which include the change in estimated acquisition earnout payables adjustments and acquisition related compensation charges.
•
Amortization of intangible assets, which reflects the amortization of customer/expiration lists, non-compete

agreements, trade names and other intangible assets acquired through our merger and acquisition strategy, the impact to amortization expense of acquisition valuation adjustments to these assets as well as non-cash impairment charges.
•
The impact of foreign currency translation, as applicable. The amounts excluded with respect to foreign currency translation are calculated by applying current year foreign exchange rates to the same period in the prior year.
•
Effective income tax rate impact, which levelizes the prior year for the change in current year tax rates.
•
Legal and tax related, which represents the impact of (a) adjustments in second quarter 2023 related to additional U.K. income tax expense related to the non‐deductibility of acquisition-related adjustments made in the quarter and costs associated with legal and tax matters, (b) adjustments in second quarter 2022 related to a one-time U.S. state tax benefit that resulted from legal entity restructuring and a favorable U.K. tax impact related to earnout liability adjustments, and (c) adjustments in first quarter 2022 related to a one-time benefit related to the revaluation of certain deferred income tax assets associated with Gallagher increasing its U.S. state effective income tax rate.
•
Adjusted ratios - Adjusted compensation expense and adjusted operating expense, respectively, each divided by adjusted revenues.

Non-GAAP Earnings Measures

We believe that the presentation of EBITDAC, EBITDAC margin, adjusted EBITDAC, adjusted EBITDAC margin, adjusted EPS and adjusted net earnings for the brokerage and risk management segments, each as defined below, provides a meaningful representation of our operating performance. Adjusted EPS is a performance measure and should not be used as a measure of our liquidity. We also consider EBITDAC and EBITDAC margin as ways to measure financial performance on an ongoing basis. In addition, adjusted EBITDAC, adjusted EBITDAC margin and adjusted EPS for the brokerage and risk management segments are presented to improve the comparability of our results between periods by eliminating the impact of the items that have a high degree of variability.

•
EBITDAC and EBITDAC Margin - EBITDAC is net earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization and the change in estimated acquisition earnout payables and EBITDAC margin is EBITDAC divided by total revenues (for the brokerage segment) and revenues before reimbursements (for the risk management segment). These measures for the brokerage and risk management segments provide a meaningful representation of our operating performance for the overall business and provide a meaningful way to measure its financial performance on an ongoing basis.
•
EBITDAC, as adjusted and EBITDAC Margin, as adjusted - Adjusted EBITDAC is EBITDAC adjusted to exclude net gains on divestitures, acquisition integration costs, workforce related charges, lease termination related charges, acquisition related adjustments, transaction related costs, legal and tax related costs and the period-over-period impact of foreign currency translation as applicable, and Adjusted EBITDAC margin is Adjusted EBITDAC divided by total adjusted revenues (defined above). These measures for the brokerage and risk management segments provide a meaningful representation of our operating performance, and are also presented to improve the comparability of our results between periods by eliminating the impact of the items that have a high degree of variability.
•
EPS, as adjusted and Net Earnings, as adjusted - Adjusted net earnings have been adjusted to exclude the after-tax impact of net gains on divestitures, acquisition integration costs, the impact of foreign currency translation, workforce related charges, lease termination related charges, acquisition related adjustments, transaction related costs, amortization of intangible assets, legal and tax related costs and effective income tax rate impact, as applicable. Adjusted EPS is Adjusted Net Earnings divided by diluted weighted average shares outstanding. This measure provides a meaningful representation of our operating performance (and as such should not be used as a measure of our liquidity), and for the overall business is also presented to improve the comparability of our results between periods by eliminating the impact of the items that have a high degree of variability.

Organic Revenues (a non-GAAP measure) - For the brokerage segment, organic change in base commission and fee revenues, supplemental revenues and contingent revenues exclude the first twelve months of such revenues generated from acquisitions and such revenues related to divested operations in each year presented. These revenues are excluded from organic revenues in order to help interested persons analyze the revenue growth associated with the operations that were a part of our business in both the current and prior period. In addition, organic change in base commission and fee revenues, supplemental revenues and contingent revenues excludes the period‑over‑period impact of foreign currency translation to improve the comparability of our results between periods by eliminating the impact of the items that have a high degree of variability. For the risk management segment, organic change in fee revenues excludes the first twelve months of fee revenues generated from acquisitions in each year presented.

In addition, change in organic growth excludes the period-over-period impact of foreign currency translation to improve the comparability of our results between periods by eliminating the impact of the items that have a high degree of variability.

These revenue items are excluded from organic revenues in order to determine a comparable, but non-GAAP, measurement of revenue growth that is associated with the revenue sources that are expected to continue in the current year and beyond, as well as eliminating the impact of the items that have a high degree of variability. We have historically viewed organic revenue growth as an important indicator when assessing and evaluating the performance of our brokerage and risk management segments. We also believe that using this non‑GAAP measure allows readers of our financial statements to measure, analyze and compare the growth from our brokerage and risk management segments in a meaningful and consistent manner.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Information Presented to GAAP Measures - This quarterly report on Form 10‑Q includes tabular reconciliations to the most comparable GAAP measures, as follows: for EBITDAC (on pages 48 and 54), for adjusted revenues, adjusted EBITDAC and adjusted diluted net earnings per share (on pages 41 and 42), for organic revenue measures (on pages 49 and 54), respectively, for the brokerage and risk management segments, for adjusted compensation and operating expenses and adjusted EBITDAC margin, (on pages 50 and 51 for the brokerage segment and (on page 55) for the risk management segment.

Other Informa tion - Allocations of investment income and certain expenses are based on reasonable assumptions and estimates primarily using revenue, headcount and other information. We allocate the provision for income taxes to the brokerage and risk management segments using local statutory rates. As a result, the provision for income taxes for the corporate segment for 2021 and prior periods reflects the entire benefit to us of the IRC Section 45 tax credits produced, because that is the segment which generated the credits. The law that provides for IRC Section 45 tax credits expired in December 2019 for our fourteen plants placed in service prior to December 31, 2009 (which we refer to as the 2009 Era Plants) and expired in December 2021 for our twenty-one plants placed in service prior to December 31, 2011 (which we refer to as the 2011 Era Plants). We anticipate reporting an effective tax rate of approximately 24.5% to 26.5% in the brokerage segment and 25.0% to 27.0% in the risk management segment for the foreseeable future. Reported operating results by segment would change if different allocation methods were applied. Because the law governing IRC Section 45 tax credits expired as of December 31, 2021, reported GAAP revenues and net earnings will decrease, yet our net cash flow will increase as a result of not having to pay expenses to operate the clean coal facilities and also from an increase in the use of credits against our United States federal income tax obligations.

In the discussion that follows regarding our results of operations, we also provide the following ratios with respect to our operating results: pretax profit margin, compensation expense ratio and operating expense ratio. Pretax profit margin represents pretax earnings divided by total revenues. The compensation expense ratio is compensation expense divided by total revenues. The operating expense ratio is operating expense divided by total revenues.

Overview and Second Quarter 2023 Highlights

We are engaged in providing insurance and reinsurance brokerage and consulting services, and third-party property/casualty claims settlement and administration services to entities in the U.S. and abroad. In the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, we generated approximately 63% of our revenues for the combined brokerage and risk management segments domestically and 37% internationally, primarily in Australia, Bermuda, Canada, the Caribbean, New Zealand and the United Kingdom. We have three reportable segments: brokerage, risk management and corporate, which contributed approximately 87%, 13% and 0% for brokerage, risk management and corporate, respectively, to revenues during the six-month period ended June 30, 2023. Our major sources of operating revenues are commissions, fees and supplemental and contingent revenues from brokerage operations and fees from risk management operations. Investment income is generated from invested cash and fiduciary funds, and other investments, and interest income from premium financing.

We use the Council of Insurance Agents and Brokers (which we refer to as CIAB) insurance pricing quarterly survey as an indicator of the insurance rate environment. The CIAB represents the leading domestic and international insurance brokers, who write approximately 85% of the commercial property/casualty premiums in the U.S. The second quarter 2023 survey had not been published as of the filing date of this report. The first quarter 2023 survey indicated that commercial property/casualty rates increased by 8.8% on average and we expect a similar trend to be noted when CIAB's second quarter 2023 survey report is issued. This trend indicates overall continued price firming and hardening in most lines.

We believe increases in property/casualty rates will continue for the remainder of 2023 and potentially even throughout 2024 due to the continued rise of loss cost inflation, higher reinsurance pricing (particularly in property catastrophe), increased frequency and severity of catastrophe losses and social inflation. If loss trends continue to deteriorate over the coming quarters, including the impact of natural catastrophes, the difficult rate and conditions environment may continue or exacerbate in certain lines. The combination of increasing insurable values (due in large part to inflation, including wage inflation), a still tight labor market and historically low unemployment, is likely contributing to increases in client insured exposures. Additionally, we expect that our history of strong new business generation, solid retentions and enhanced value-added services for our carrier partners should all result in further organic growth opportunities around the world. Based on our experience, most insurance carriers appear to be making rational pricing decisions and there is adequate capacity in the insurance and reinsurance market for most lines of coverage, including U.S. property

catastrophe treaties. Overall, we believe that in the current rate environment with increasing exposures, our professionals can demonstrate their expertise and high-quality, value-added capabilities by strengthening our clients’ insurance portfolios and delivering insurance and risk management solutions within our clients’ budgets.

Within our corporate segment, net after-tax losses related to our clean energy investments were $(2.4) million and $(2.3) million, as reported, in the three-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Within our corporate segment, net after-tax losses related to our clean energy investments were $(4.0) million and $(4.3) million, as reported, in the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. At this time, we do not anticipate our clean energy investments will produce after-tax earnings in 2023.

Acquisition of the BCHR holdings, L.P. and its subsidiaries dba Buck

On April 3, 2023, we acquired the partnership interests of Buck. See Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements for information on the purchase price consideration paid to acquire Buck. We funded the transaction using free cash flow and funds received from an unsecured senior notes offering. Buck was a leading provider of retirement, human resources and employee benefits consulting and administration services operating for more than 100 years with a diverse client base by both size and industry. Immediately prior to closing, Buck had over 2,300 employees, including more than 220 credentialed actuaries, primarily serving customers throughout the U.S., Canada and the U.K.

Results of Operations

Brokerage

- 45 -

The brokerage segment accounted for 87% of our revenues during the six-month period ended June 30, 2023. Our brokerage segment is primarily comprised of retail, wholesale and reinsurance brokerage operations. Our brokerage segment generates revenues by:

(i)
Identifying, negotiating and placing all forms of insurance or reinsurance coverage, as well as providing risk-shifting, risk-sharing and risk-mitigation consulting services, principally related to property/casualty, life, health, welfare and disability insurance. We also provide these services through, or in conjunction with, other unrelated agents and brokers, consultants and management advisors;
(ii)
Acting as an agent or broker for multiple underwriting enterprises by providing services such as sales, marketing, selecting, negotiating, underwriting, servicing and placing insurance coverage on their behalf;
(iii)
Providing consulting services related to health and welfare benefits, voluntary benefits, executive benefits, compensation, retirement planning, institutional investment and fiduciary, actuarial, compliance, private insurance exchange, human resources technology, communications and benefits administration; and
(iv)
Providing management and administrative services to captives, pools, risk-retention groups, healthcare exchanges, small underwriting enterprises, such as accounting, claims and loss processing assistance, feasibility studies, actuarial studies, data analytics and other administrative services.

The primary source of revenues for our brokerage services is commissions from underwriting enterprises, based on a percentage of premiums paid by our clients, or fees received from clients based on an agreed level of service usually in lieu of commissions. Commissions are fixed at the contract effective date and generally are based on a percentage of premiums for insurance coverage or employee headcount for employer sponsored benefit plans. Commissions depend upon a large number of factors, including the type of risk being placed, the particular underwriting enterprise’s demand, the expected loss experience of the particular risk of coverage, and historical benchmarks surrounding the level of effort necessary for us to place and service the insurance contract. Rather than being tied to the amount of premiums, fees are most often based on an expected level of effort to provide our services. In addition, under certain circumstances, both retail brokerage and wholesale brokerage services receive supplemental and contingent revenues. Supplemental revenue is revenue paid by an underwriting enterprise that is above the base commission paid, is determined by the underwriting enterprise and is established annually in advance of the contractual period based on historical performance criteria. Contingent revenue is revenue paid by an underwriting enterprise based on the overall profit and/or volume of the business placed with that underwriting enterprise during a particular calendar year and is determined after the contractual period.

Litigation, Regulatory and Taxation Matters

During 2022, we received a subpoena from the U.S. Foreign Corruption Practices Act Unit of the Department of Justice seeking information related to our insurance business with public entities in Ecuador. We continue to fully cooperate with the investigation.

As previously disclosed, our IRC 831(b) (or “micro-captive”) advisory services business has been under audit by the IRS since 2013. Among other matters, the IRS is investigating whether we have been acting as a tax shelter promoter in connection with these operations. Additionally, the IRS is conducting a criminal investigation related to IRC 831(b) micro-captive underwriting enterprises. We have been advised that we are not a target of the criminal investigation. We are fully cooperating with both matters.

Commissions and fees - The aggregate increase in base commissions and fees for the three-month period ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022, was due to revenues associated with acquisitions that were made in the twelve-month period ended June 30, 2023 ($147.0 million), and to the organic change in base commissions and fee revenues. The organic change in base commissions and fee revenues were 9.6% and 10.7% for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

The aggregate increase in base commissions and fees for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022, was due to revenues associated with acquisitions that were made in the twelve-month period ended June 30, 2023 ($204.4 million), and to the organic change in base commissions and fee revenues. The organic change in base commissions and fee revenues were 9.5% and 10.0% for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

In our property/casualty brokerage operations, during the three-month period ended June 30, 2023 we saw continued strong customer retention and new business generation and increasing renewal premiums (premium rates and exposures). We believe these favorable trends should continue into the third quarter of 2023; however, if economic conditions worsen, we could see our revenue growth soften.

In the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 we issued 851,000 and 1,833,000 shares of our common stock at the request of sellers and/or in connection with tax-free exchange acquisitions. In the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2022, we did not issue any shares of our common stock in connection with acquisitions.

On April 3, 2023, we acquired the partnership interests of Buck. We funded the transaction using free cash flow and funds received from an unsecured senior notes offering. Buck was a leading provider of retirement, human resources and employee benefits consulting and administration services operating for more than 100 years and has a diverse client base by both size and industry. Immediately prior to closing, Buck had over 2,300 employees, including more than 220 credentialed actuaries, primarily serving customers throughout the U.S., Canada and the U.K.

Investment income and net gains on divestitures - This primarily represents (1) interest income earned on cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and fiduciary cash and interest income from premium financing and (2) net gains related to divestitures and sales of books of business, which were $5.0 million and $2.8 million for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively and $5.2 million and $4.2 million for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Investment income in the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 increased compared to the same periods in 2022, primarily due to increases in interest income from increases in interest rates earned on our funds.

The $217.2 million increase in compensation expense for the three-month period ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022, was primarily due to compensation associated with the acquisitions completed in the twelve-month period ended June 30, 2023 ‑ $87.5 million, base compensation related to the hiring of producers and other roles to service and support organic growth, benefits and other incentive compensation - $87.2 million in the aggregate, increases in acquisition integration costs - $13.0 million, workforce related charges - $23.2 million and acquisition earnout related adjustments - $6.3 million.

The $326.9 million increase in compensation expense for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022, was primarily due to compensation associated with the acquisitions completed in the twelve-month period ended June 30, 2023 ‑ $121.4 million, base compensation related to the hiring of producers and other roles to service and support organic growth, benefits and other incentive compensation - $148.9 million in the aggregate, increases in acquisition integration costs - $16.8 million, workforce related charges - $31.1 million and acquisition earnout related adjustments - $8.7 million.

The $73.4 million increase in operating expense for the three-month period ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022, was primarily due to expenses associated with the acquisitions completed in the twelve-month period ended June 30, 2023 ‑ $23.6 million, acquisition integration costs - $16.1 million and an increase of $33.7 million in the aggregate from the return of, and underlying inflation of, advertising, travel, entertainment and other client-related expenses, professional fees and additional investments in technology, partially offset by savings from office consolidations.

The $122.1 million increase in operating expense for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022, was primarily due to expenses associated with the acquisitions completed in the twelve-month period ended June 30, 2023 - $35.2 million, acquisition integration costs - $19.7 million, and an increase of $67.2 million in the aggregate from the return of, and underlying inflation of, advertising, travel, entertainment and other client-related expenses, professional fees and additional investments in technology, partially offset by savings from office consolidations.

Depreciation - Depreciation expense increased in the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same periods in 2022 by $1.2 million and $4.9 million, respectively. The increase in depreciation expense in 2023 compared to 2022 was due primarily to the purchases of furniture, equipment and leasehold improvements related to office consolidations and moves, and expenditures related to upgrading computer systems. Also contributing to the increase in depreciation expense was the depreciation expense associated with acquisitions completed in the twelve-month period ended June 30, 2023.

Amortization - The increase in amortization expense in the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same periods in 2022 was primarily due to the impact of acquisition valuation true-ups recorded in the first quarter of 2022 relating to acquisitions made in the third quarter of 2021, partially offset by the impact of amortization expense of intangible assets associated with acquisitions completed in the twelve-month period ended June 30, 2023. Based on the results of impairment reviews during each of the three-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we wrote off $3.1 million and $0.3 million, respectively, of amortizable assets. Based on the results of impairment reviews during each of the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we wrote off $3.2 million and $0.4 million, respectively, of amortizable assets. We review all of our intangible assets for impairment periodically (at least annually for goodwill) and whenever events or changes in business circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the assets may not be recoverable. We perform such impairment reviews at the division (i.e., reporting unit) level with respect to goodwill and at the business unit level for amortizable intangible assets. In reviewing intangible assets, if the undiscounted future cash flows were less than the carrying amount of the respective (or underlying) asset, an indicator of impairment would exist and further analysis would be required to determine whether or not a loss would need to be charged against current period earnings as a component of amortization expense. Expiration lists, non-compete agreements and trade names are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives (two to fifteen years for expiration lists, two to six years for non-compete agreements and two to fifteen years for trade names).

Change in estimated acquisition earnout payables - The change in the expense from the change in estimated acquisition earnout payables in the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 compared to the same periods in 2022, was primarily due to adjustments made to the estimated fair value of earnout obligations related to revised assumptions due to rising interest rates and increased market volatility and projections of future performance. During the three-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we recognized $19.7 million and $13.8 million, respectively, of expense related to the accretion of the discount recorded for earnout obligations in connection with our acquisitions made in the period from 2019 to 2023. During the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we recognized $39.3 million and $23.0 million, respectively, of expense related to the accretion of the discount recorded for earnout obligations in connection with our acquisitions made in the period from 2019 to 2023. In addition, during the three-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we recognized $10.4 million and $46.1 million of income, respectively, related to net adjustments in the estimated fair value of earnout obligations in connection with revised assumptions due to changes in interest

rates, volatility and other assumptions and projections of future performance for 34 and 30 acquisitions, respectively. In addition, during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we recognized $11.6 million of expense and $34.5 million of income, respectively, related to net adjustments in the estimated fair value of earnout obligations in connection with revised assumptions due to changes in interest rates, volatility and other assumptions and projections of future performance for 45 and 50 acquisitions, respectively. The net adjustments in the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 include changes made to the estimated fair value of the Willis Re acquisition earnout and reflect updated assumptions as of June 30, 2023.

The amounts initially recorded as earnout payables for our 2019 to 2023 acquisitions were measured at fair value as of the acquisition date and are primarily based upon the estimated future operating results of the acquired entities over a two- to-three-year period subsequent to the acquisition date. The fair value of these earnout obligations is based on the present value of the expected future payments to be made to the sellers of the acquired entities in accordance with the provisions outlined in the respective purchase agreements. In determining fair value, we estimate the acquired entity’s future performance using financial projections developed by management for the acquired entity and market participant assumptions that were derived for revenue growth and/or profitability. We estimate future earnout payments using the earnout formula and performance targets specified in each purchase agreement and these financial projections. Subsequent changes in the underlying financial projections or assumptions will cause the estimated earnout obligations to change and such adjustments are recorded in our consolidated statement of earnings when incurred. Increases in the earnout payable obligations will result in the recognition of expense and decreases in the earnout payable obligations will result in the recognition of income.

Provision for income taxes - The brokerage segment’s effective income tax rates for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, were 25.7% and 24.1%, respectively. The brokerage segment’s effective income tax rates for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, were 25.5% and 24.6%, respectively. In the first quarter of 2022, we increased our state effective income tax rate, which resulted in the overall U.S. effective income tax rate increasing from 25% to 26% and caused us to incur additional income tax expense. We anticipate reporting an effective tax rate of approximately 24.5% to 26.5% in our brokerage segment for the foreseeable future. In addition, in 2021, the U.K. government enacted tax legislation that increases the corporate income tax rate from 19% to 25% effective in April 2023.

Net earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests - The amounts reported in this line for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, include noncontrolling interest earnings of $2.0 million and $1.4 million, respectively, and for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, $2.8 million and $2.1 million, respectively.

Risk Management

The risk management segment accounted for 13% of our revenue during the six-month period ended June 30, 2023. Our risk management segment operations provide contract claim settlement, claim administration, loss control services and risk management consulting for commercial, not for profit, captive and public entities, and various other organizations that choose to self-insure property/casualty coverages or choose to use a third-party claims management organization rather than the claim services provided by underwriting enterprises. Revenues for our risk management segment are comprised of fees generally negotiated (i) on a per-claim or per-service basis, (ii) on a cost-plus basis, or (iii) as performance-based fees. We also provide risk management consulting services that are recognized as the services are delivered.

Financial information relating to our risk management segment results for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the same periods in 2022, is as follows (in millions, except per share, percentages and workforce data):

Fees - In our risk management operations, for the three-month period ended June 30, 2023, new core workers compensation and general liability claims arising improved new clients coming on board in 2022 and 2023. We believe these favorable trends should continue for the remainder of 2023, however, worsening economic conditions or a reversal in the number of workers employed could cause fewer new core workers compensation claims to arise in future quarters. Organic change in fee revenues for the three-month period ended June 30, 2023 was 18.1% compared to 10.3% for the same period in 2022. Organic change in fee revenues for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023 was 16.2% compared to 12.6% for the same period in 2022.

Reimbursements - Reimbursements represent amounts received from clients reimbursing us for certain third-party costs associated with providing our claims management services. In certain service partner relationships, we are considered a principal because we direct the third party, control the specified service and combine the services provided into an integrated solution. Given this principal relationship, we are required to recognize revenue on a gross basis and service partner vendor fees in the operating expense line in our consolidated statement of earnings.

The $31.2 million increase in compensation expense for the three-month period ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022, was primarily due to increased base compensation related to merit wage increases and hiring to support organic growth, benefits, incentive compensation and increased temporary help - $31.0 million in the aggregate. Also contributing to the increase was acquisition integration costs - $0.2 million.

The $52.3 million increase in compensation expense for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022, was primarily due to increased base compensation related to merit wage increases and hiring to support growth, benefits, incentive compensation and temporary help - $50.7 million in the aggregate.

The $8.1 million increase in operating expense for the three-month period ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022, was primarily due to the underlying inflation of travel, entertainment and other client-related expenses and additional investments in technology, partially offset by lesser professional fees, business insurance and savings from office consolidations - $9.3 million in the aggregate, and by reduced acquisition integration costs - $1.2 million.

The $13.7 million increase in operating expense for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022, was primarily due to the return of, and underlying inflation of, travel, entertainment and other client-related expenses and additional investments in technology, partially offset by lesser professional fees, business insurance and savings from office consolidations - $14.5 million.

Depreciation - Depreciation expense decreased in the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same periods in 2022 by $0.7 million and $2.1 million, respectively, which reflects the impact of office consolidations that occurred as leases expired in 2023 and 2022 (less depreciation associated with furniture, equipment and leasehold improvements), partially offset by expenditures related to upgrading computer systems.

Amortization - The amortization expense decreased in the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same periods in 2022 by $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively. Based on the results of impairment reviews during the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, no such impairments were noted. Based on the results of impairment reviews during the six-month period ended June 30, 2022 we wrote off $0.1 million of amortizable assets.

Change in estimated acquisition earnout payables - The change in expense from the change in estimated acquisition earnout payables in the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 to the same periods in 2022, was primarily due to accretion of the discount and adjustments made to the estimated fair value of earnout obligations related to revised projections of future performance. During the three-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we recognized $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively, of expense in each period, related to the accretion of the discount recorded for earnout obligations in connection with our acquisitions. During the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we recognized $0.3 million and $0.4 million, respectively, of expense in each period, related to the accretion of the discount recorded for earnout obligations in connection with our acquisitions. In addition, during the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2022, we recognized $1.7 million of income and $1.8 million of income, respectively, related to net adjustments in the estimated fair value of earnout obligations in connection with revised projections of future performance for two and three acquisitions, respectively.

Provision for income taxes - The risk management segment’s effective income tax rates for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, were 26.5% and 26.3%, respectively. The risk management segment’s effective income tax rates for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, were 26.4% and 26.2%, respectively. In the first quarter of 2022, we increased our state effective income tax rate, which resulted in the overall U.S. effective income tax rate increasing from 25% to 26% and caused us to incur additional income tax expense. We anticipate reporting an effective tax rate on adjusted results of approximately 25.0% to 27.0% in our risk management segment for the foreseeable future. In addition, in 2021, the U.K. government enacted tax legislation that increases the corporate income tax rate from 19% to 25% effective in April 2023.

Revenues - Revenues in the corporate segment consist of the following:

•
Revenues from consolidated clean coal production plants represents revenues from the consolidated IRC Section 45 facilities in which we have a majority ownership position and maintain control over the operations at the related facilities. The law governing IRC Section 45 tax credits expired as of December 31, 2021.
•
Even though the law governing IRC Section 45 tax credits expired as of December 31, 2021, we did have some production at our clean coal plants in the three-month period ended March 31, 2022 to run-off existing chemical supplies.
•
Royalty income from clean coal licenses represents revenues related to Chem-Mod LLC. As of June 30, 2023, we held a 46.5% controlling interest in Chem-Mod LLC. As Chem-Mod LLC’s manager, we are required to consolidate its operations.
•
The decrease in royalty income in the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same periods in 2022, was due to the expiration of the IRC Section 45 program.

Cost of revenues - Cost of revenues from consolidated clean coal production plants consists of the cost of coal, labor, equipment maintenance, chemicals, supplies, management fees and depreciation incurred by the clean coal production plants to generate the consolidated revenues discussed above. Even though, the law governing IRC Section 45 tax credits expired as of December 31, 2021,

Interest expense - The increase in interest expense for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same periods in 2022, was due to the following:

Change in interest expense related to: | Three-month period ended June 30, 2023 |  |  | Six-month period ended June 30, 2023 |
Interest on borrowings from our Credit Agreement | $ | 4.0 |  |  | $ | 6.1 |
Interest on the maturity of the Series G notes |  | (1.5 | ) |  |  | (3.3 | )
Interest on the maturity of the Series E notes |  | (0.7 | ) |  |  | (1.1 | )
Interest on the $500.0 million notes funded on June 13, 2018 |  | 0.6 |  |  |  | 1.1 |
Interest on the $950.0 million senior notes funded on March 2, 2023 |  | 13.6 |  |  |  | 18.1 |
Amortization of hedge gains/losses |  | (2.8 | ) |  |  | (3.7 | )
Net change in interest expense | $ | 13.2 |  |  | $ | 17.2 |

Depreciation - Depreciation expense in the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 relates to corporate home office related assets.

Benefit for income taxes - We allocate the provision for income taxes to the brokerage and risk management segments using local country statutory rates. The law that provides for IRC Section 45 tax credits expired in December 2019 for our fourteen 2009 Era Plants and expired in December 2021 for our twenty-one 2011 Era Plants. Our consolidated effective tax rate for the three-month period ended June 30, 2023 was 20.7% compared to 19.1% for the same period in 2022. Our consolidated effective tax rate for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023 was 20.0% compared to 18.6% for the same period in 2022. The tax rates for the three and

- 58 -

six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 were lower than the statutory rate primarily due to the income tax benefit of stock based awards as well as the revaluation in 2022 of deferred tax assets to a higher state effective tax rate. There were no tax credits produced in the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. In first quarter 2022, we increased our state effective income tax rate, which resulted in the overall U.S. effective income tax rate increasing from 25% to 26%, and caused us to incur additional income tax benefit during the quarter and recognize a one-time benefit related to the revaluation of certain deferred income tax assets. In addition, the production of IRC Section 45 clean energy tax credits ceased in December 2021.

Net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests - The amounts reported in this line for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 include noncontrolling interest loss of $(0.7) million and $(0.5) million, respectively, related to our investment in Chem-Mod LLC. The amounts reported in this line for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 include noncontrolling interest loss of $(1.4) million and $(0.8) million, respectively, related to our investment in Chem-Mod LLC. As of June 30, 2023 and 2022, we held a 46.5% controlling interest in Chem-Mod LLC. Also included in net earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests are offsetting amounts related to non-Gallagher owned interests in several clean energy investments.

The following provides non-GAAP information that we believe is helpful when comparing our operating results for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 for the corporate segment (in millions):

Interest and banking costs and debt - Interest and banking costs includes expenses related to our debt.

Clean energy - For 2023, this consists of the operating results related to our investments in new clean energy projects and the wind up of our investment in clean coal production plants. Prior to 2023, this consisted of the operating results related to our investments in clean coal production plants and royalty income from clean coal licenses related to Chem-Mod- LLC. The production of IRC Section 45 clean energy tax credits ceased in December 2021, which reduced the royalty income received by Chem-Mod LLC and net earnings generated by our investments in clean coal production plants in 2022. Even though the law governing IRC Section 45 tax credits expired as of December 31, 2021, we did have some production at our clean coal production plants in the three-month period ended March 31, 2022 to run-off existing chemical supplies.

Acquisition costs - Consists mostly of external professional fees and other due diligence costs related to our acquisitions. On occasion, we enter into forward currency hedges for the purchase price of committed, but not yet funded, acquisitions with funding requirements in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. The gains or losses, if any, associated with these hedge transactions are also included in acquisition costs.

Corporate - Consists of overhead allocations mostly related to corporate staff compensation, other corporate level activities, and net unrealized foreign exchange remeasurement. In addition, corporate includes the tax expense related to partial taxation of foreign earnings, nondeductible executive compensation and entertainment expenses, the tax benefit from vesting of employee equity awards, as well as other permanent or discrete tax items not reflected in the provision for income taxes in the brokerage and risk management segments. The income tax benefit of stock based awards that vested or were settled in the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, was $46.8 million and $34.5 million, respectively, and is included in the table above in the Corporate line.

Clean energy investm ents - We have investments in limited liability companies that own 29 clean coal production plants developed by us and six clean coal production plants we purchased from a third party. All 35 plants produced refined coal using propriety technologies owned by Chem-Mod LLC. We believe that the production and sale of refined coal at these plants prior to 2022 were qualified to receive refined coal tax credits under IRC Section 45. The 14 2009 Era Plants received tax credits through 2019 and the 21 2011 Era Plants received tax credits through 2021.

Our investment in Chem-Mod LLC prior to 2022 generated royalty income from refined coal production plants owned by those limited liability companies in which we invest as well as refined coal production plants owned by other unrelated parties.

Please refer to our filings with the Securities Exchange Commission, including Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” on pages 25 through 27 of our Annual Report on Form 10‑K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, for a more detailed discussion of these and other factors that could impact the information above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity describes the ability of a company to generate sufficient cash flows to meet the cash requirements of its business operations. The insurance brokerage industry is not capital intensive. Historically, our capital requirements have primarily included dividend

- 60 -

payments on our common stock, repurchases of our common stock, funding of our investments, acquisitions of brokerage and risk management operations and capital expenditures.

On April 3, 2023, we acquired the partnership interests of Buck. See Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements for information on the purchase price consideration paid to acquire Buck. We funded the transaction using free cash flow and funds received from an unsecured senior notes offering. Buck was a leading provider of retirement, human resources and employee benefits consulting and administration services. Total expected expense to integrate Buck into our operations is approximately $125.0 million.

Operating Cash Flows

Historically, we have depended on our ability to generate positive cash flow from operations to meet a substantial portion of our cash requirements. We believe that our cash flows from operations and borrowings under our Credit Agreement (defined below) will provide us with adequate resources to meet our liquidity needs in the foreseeable future. To fund acquisitions made during 2022 and for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, we relied on a combination of net cash flows from operations, proceeds from borrowings under our Credit Agreement, and proceeds from issuances of senior unsecured notes.

Cash provided by operating activities was $440.9 million and $140.4 million for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The increase in cash provided by operating activities during the six-month period ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022, was primarily due to growth in our core brokerage and risk management operations and timing differences between periods with cash receipts and disbursements related to accounts receivables and accrued compensation and other current liabilities compared to the same period in 2022. During the three-month period ended March 31, 2022, we collected $71.1 million of clean coal production related receivables and made $84.8 million in payments for clean coal production related payables that were accrued in our December 31, 2021 consolidated balance sheet. Due to the law governing IRC Section 45 tax credits expiring as of December 31, 2021, we did not have this cash flow activity during the three-month period ended June 30, 2023.

During the six-month period ended June 30, 2023 employee matching contributions to the 401(k) plan of $73.8 million relating to 2022 were funded using common stock. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2022, employee matching contributions to the 401(k) plan of $65.7 million relating to 2021 were funded using common stock.

Our cash flows from operating activities are primarily derived from our earnings from operations, as adjusted for our non‑cash expenses, which include depreciation, amortization, change in estimated acquisition earnout payables, deferred compensation, restricted stock and stock‑based and other non-cash compensation expenses. Historically, cash provided by operating activities was unfavorably impacted if the amount of IRC Section 45 tax credits generated (which is the amount we recognize for financial reporting purposes) was greater than the amount of tax credits utilized to reduce our tax cash obligations. Excess tax credits produced during the period resulted in an increase to our deferred tax assets, which is a net use of cash related to operating activities. In the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, Section 45 credits were no longer generated due to the IRC Section 45 program expiring as of December 31, 2021, and therefore the Section 45 credit utilization against our cash tax obligation resulted in favorable cash flow in the six-month period ended June 30, 2023. Please see “Clean Energy Investments” below for more information on their potential future impact on cash provided by operating activities.

When assessing our overall liquidity, we believe that the focus should be on net earnings as reported in our consolidated statement of earnings, adjusted for non‑cash items (i.e., EBITDAC), and cash provided by operating activities in our consolidated statement of cash flows. Consolidated EBITDAC was $1,435.2 million and $1,305.7 million for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Net earnings attributable to controlling interests were $721.0 million and $722.9 million for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. We believe that EBITDAC items are indicators of trends in liquidity.

Change in Presentation of Fiduciary Assets and Liabilities in First Quarter 2023

In first quarter 2023, we changed the presentation of certain amounts and classifications in our consolidated balance sheet and statement of cash flows to identify and present fiduciary assets and liabilities and respective changes of these accounts in the balance sheet and statement of cash flows. These revisions also better reflect the cash flows associated with our operations. Lines for accounts receivable, fiduciary assets and fiduciary liabilities were added and lines for restricted cash, premiums and fees receivable and premiums payable to underwriting enterprises were removed. In addition to these changes, we moved the net change in fiduciary assets and liabilities from the operating section to the financing section of the statement of cash flows. We made the applicable revisions to the December 31, 2022 balance sheet and statement of cash flow for the six-month period ended June 30, 2022 to conform to the current period presentation. These changes had no impact on the 2022 consolidated statement of earnings or December 31, 2022 stockholders’ equity. See Note 1 to our June 30, 2023 unaudited consolidated financial statements for an additional discussion of the change in presentation of fiduciary assets and

- 61 -

liabilities.
Defined Benefit Pension Plan

Our policy for funding our defined benefit pension plan is to contribute amounts at least sufficient to meet the minimum funding requirements under the IRC. The Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (which we refer to as ERISA), could impose a minimum funding requirement for our plan. We are not required to make any minimum contributions to the plan for the 2023 plan year, nor were we required to make any minimum contributions to the plan for the 2022 plan year. Funding requirements are based on the plan being frozen and the aggregate amount of our historical funding. The plan’s actuaries determine contribution rates based on our funding practices and requirements. Funding amounts may be influenced by future asset performance, the level of discount rates and other variables impacting the assets and/or liabilities of the plan. In addition, amounts funded in the future, to the extent not due under regulatory requirements, may be affected by alternative uses of our cash flows, including dividends, acquisitions and common stock repurchases. We did not make any discretionary contributions to the plan during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. We are not considering making any discretionary contributions to the plan in 2023, but may be required to make minimum contributions to the plan in future periods.

Investing Cash Flows

Capital Expenditures - Capital expenditures were $88.8 million and $91.1 million for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. In 2023, we expect total expenditures for capital improvements to be approximately $200.0 million, part of which is related to expenditures on office moves and investments being made in information technology and software development projects. Capital expenditures are lower in 2023 compared to 2022 primarily due to the timing of payments of these expenditures in 2023. Also impacting capital expenditures is the movement of information technology to cloud computing based technology from in‑house hosted environments. Expenditures made related to cloud computing based technology are accounted for as deferred costs versus fixed assets, which would reduce capital expenditures.

Acquisitions - Cash paid for acquisitions, net of cash and restricted cash acquired, was $1,049.5 million and $321.3 million in the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. In addition, during the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, we issued 1.8 million shares ($365.1 million) of our common stock as payment for a portion of the total consideration paid for 2023 acquisitions and earnout payments made in 2023. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2022, no shares were issued of our common stock as payment for consideration paid for 2022 acquisitions and earnout payments made in 2022. We completed twenty-five and fourteen acquisitions in the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Annualized revenues of businesses acquired in the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 totaled approximately $418.1 million and $84.8 million, respectively. For the remainder of 2023, we expect to use new debt, our Credit Agreement, cash from operations and our common stock, or a combination thereof to fund all of the acquisitions we complete.

If liquidity concerns arise, we may be more likely to issue common stock to fund acquisitions.

Dispositions - During the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we sold several books of business and recognized net gains of $5.4 million and $4.2 million, respectively. We received net cash proceeds of $4.8 million and $3.7 million related to the 2023 and 2022 transactions, respectively.

Clean Energy Investments - During the period from 2009 through 2021, we made significant investments in clean energy operations capable of producing refined coal that we believe qualified for tax credits under IRC Section 45. The IRC Section 45 tax credits generate positive cash flow by reducing the amount of federal income taxes we pay. We anticipate positive net cash flow related to IRC Section 45 activity in 2023. However, there are several variables that can impact net cash flow from clean energy investments in any given year. Therefore, accurately predicting cash flows in particular future periods is not possible at this time. However, if we continue to generate sufficient taxable income to use the tax credits produced by our IRC Section 45 investments, we anticipate that these investments will continue to generate positive net cash flows due to the utilization of IRC Section 45 tax credits to offset taxable income in years after the program expired. In October 2022, we filed our 2021 federal tax return and elected to continue a tax method change in that return. This resulted in an acceleration of the amount of tax credits that we utilized on the return by approximately $150.0 million, which was recorded in fourth quarter 2022. We also amended our 2014 and 2015 federal tax returns in fourth quarter 2022, which resulted in a refund of $3.7 million of IRC Section 45 tax credits. While we cannot precisely forecast the cash flow impact in any particular period, we anticipate that the net cash flow impact of IRC Section 45 activity will be positive overall. Please see “Clean energy investments” on page 60 for a more detailed description of these investments and their risks and uncertainties. Please see “Other Information” on page 39 for the cash flow impact of the expiration of laws governing tax credits.

Financing Cash Flows

- 62 -

On June 22, 2023, we entered into the Credit Agreement that provides for a five-year unsecured revolving credit facility in the amount of $1,200,000,000 (including a $75,000,000 letter of credit sub-facility), which is also available in Pounds Sterling, Canadian Dollars, Australian Dollars, New Zealand Dollars, Euros, Japanese Yen and any other currencies agreed by the lenders. We may also, upon the agreement of either one or more then-existing lenders or of additional banks not currently party to the Credit Agreement, increase the commitments under the Credit Agreement up to $1,700,000,000. The Credit Agreement permits us to designate wholly-owned subsidiaries located in certain jurisdictions as additional borrowers, the obligations of which will be guaranteed by the Company, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement. Any subsidiary that guarantees any notes under the Company’s existing note purchase agreements is required to guarantee the obligations under the Credit Agreement. There are currently no subsidiary borrowers or guarantors under the Credit Agreement.

Loans borrowed under the Credit Agreement bear interest at a variable annual rate based on a customary benchmark rate for each available currency Secured Overnight Financing Rate ( which we refer to as SOFR) (for loans in U.S. Dollars), or at our election solely for loans in U.S. Dollars, the base rate, plus in each case an applicable margin. The applicable margin is determined by reference to the rating of our long-term senior unsecured debt. Subject to certain conditions stated in the Credit Agreement, we may borrow, prepay and reborrow amounts under the Credit Agreement at any time during the term of the Credit Agreement. Funds borrowed under the Credit Agreement may be used for general corporate and working capital purposes of the Company and its subsidiaries.

The Credit Agreement also contains customary representations and warranties and affirmative and negative covenants, including financial covenants, as well as customary events of default, with corresponding grace periods, including, without limitation, payment defaults, cross-defaults to other agreements evidencing indebtedness and bankruptcy-related defaults.

Concurrently, on June 22, 2023, we paid off and terminated all of our obligations under the Second Amended and Restated Multicurrency Credit Agreement, dated as of June 7, 2019.

There were $495.0 million of borrowings outstanding under the Credit Agreement at June 30, 2023. Due to the outstanding letters of credit, $705.0 million remained available for potential borrowings under the Credit Agreement at June 30, 2023.

We use the Credit Agreement to post letters of credit and to borrow funds to supplement our operating cash flows from time to time. In the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, we borrowed $2,125.0 million and repaid $1,690.0 million under our Credit Agreement. In the six-month period ended June 30, 2022, we borrowed $1,580.0 million and repaid $1,165.0 million under our Credit Agreement. Principal uses of the 2023 and 2022 borrowings under the Credit Agreement were to fund acquisitions, earnout payments related to acquisitions and general corporate purposes.

On September 20, 2022, we entered into an amendment to our revolving loan facility (which we refer to as the Premium Financing Debt Facility), that provides funding for the three Australian (AU) and New Zealand (NZ) premium finance subsidiaries. The amendment, among other things, extended the expiration date of the Premium Financing Debt Facility from September 15, 2023 to September 15, 2024, and increased the total commitment for the AU$ denominated tranche from AU$340.0 million to AU$410.0 million. The Premium Financing Debt Facility is comprised of: (i) Facility B, is separated into AU$350.0 million and NZ$10.0 million tranches (the NZ$ tranche will increase as of October 1, 2023 to NZ$25.0 million), (ii) Facility C, an AU$60.0 million equivalent multi-currency overdraft tranche and (iii) Facility D, a NZ$15.0 million equivalent multi-currency overdraft tranche. At June 30, 2023, AU$255.0 million and NZ$0.0 million of borrowings were outstanding under Facility B, AU$13.7 million of borrowings were outstanding under Facility C and NZ$14.7 million of borrowings were outstanding under Facility D, which in aggregate amount to US$191.2 million of borrowings outstanding under the Premium Financing Debt Facility.

During February 2023, we used operating cash to fund the $50.0 million Series E note maturity that had a fixed rate of 5.49% that was due February 10, 2023.

On March 2, 2023, we closed and funded an offering of $950.0 million of unsecured senior notes in two tranches. The $350.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.50% Senior Notes are due 2033 (which we refer to as the 2033 Notes) and $600.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.75% Senior Notes are due 2053 (which we refer to as the 2053 Notes). The weighted average interest rate is 5.05% per annum after giving effect to underwriting costs and a net hedge gain. During 2019 through 2022, we entered into a pre‑issuance interest rate hedging transaction related to these notes. We realized a net cash gain of approximately $112.7 million on the hedging transactions that will be recognized on a pro rata basis as a decrease to our reported interest expense over ten years. We used the proceeds of these offerings to fund acquisitions, earnout payments related to acquisitions and general corporate purposes.

At June 30, 2023, we had $2.550.0 million of Senior Notes, $3,948.0 million of corporate‑related borrowings outstanding under separate note purchase agreements entered into during the period from 2014 to 2021, $495.0 million of borrowings outstanding under our credit facility, $191.2 million outstanding under our Premium Financing Debt Facility and a cash and cash equivalent balance of $952.3 million. See Note 6 to our June 30, 2023 unaudited consolidated financial statements for a discussion of the terms of the Senior Notes, Note purchase agreements, the Credit Agreement and the Premium Financing Debt Facility.

- 63 -

During June 2023, we used operating cash to fund the $200.0 million Series N note maturity that had a fixed rate of 4.13% that was due June 24, 2023.

During June 2023, we used operating cash to fund the prepayment of the $50.0 million Series CC note floating rate of 90 day LIBOR plus 1.40%, balloon that was originally due on June 13, 2024.

Consistent with past practice, as of June 30, 2023, we have entered into pre-issuance hedging transactions of $500.0 million for 2024 and $400.0 million for 2025.

The Senior Notes, Note Purchase Agreements, the Credit Agreement and the Premium Financing Debt Facility contain various financial covenants that require us to maintain specified financial ratios. We were in compliance with these covenants at June 30, 2023.

Dividends - Our board of directors determines our dividend policy. Our board of directors determines dividends on our common stock on a quarterly basis after considering our available cash from earnings, our anticipated cash needs and current conditions in the economy and financial markets.

In the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, we declared $238.1 million in cash dividends on our common stock, or $0.55 per common share, an 8% increase over the six-month period ended June 30, 2022. On July 26, 2023, we announced a quarterly dividend for third quarter 2023 of $0.55 per common share. This dividend level in 2023 will result in annualized net cash used by financing activities in 2023 of approximately $473.8 million (based on the number of outstanding shares as of June 30, 2023) or an anticipated increase in cash used of approximately $43.8 million compared to 2022. We make no assurances regarding the amount of any future dividend payments.

Shelf Registration Statement - On March 8, 2021, we filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 with the SEC, registering the offer and sale from time to time, of an indeterminate amount of debt securities, guarantees, common stock, preferred stock, warrants, depositary shares, purchase contracts, or units. The availability of the potential liquidity under this shelf registration statement depends on investor demand, market conditions and other factors. We make no assurances regarding when, or if, we will issue any securities under this registration statement. On November 15, 2022, we filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-4 with the with the SEC, registering 7.0 million shares of our common stock that we may offer and issue from time to time in connection with future acquisitions of other businesses, assets or securities. At June 30, 2023, 6.9 million shares remained available for issuance under this registration statement.

Common Stock Repurchases - We have in place a common stock repurchase plan approved by our board of directors in July 2021, that authorizes the repurchase of up to $1.5 billion of common stock. During the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we did not repurchase shares of our common stock. The plan authorizes the repurchase of our common stock at such times and prices, as we may deem advantageous, in transactions on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. We are under no commitment or obligation to repurchase any particular number of shares, and the plan may be suspended at any time at our discretion. Funding for share repurchases may come from a variety of sources, including cash from operations, short-term or long‑term borrowings under our Credit Agreement or other sources. See “Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities” below for more information regarding shares repurchased during the quarter.

At-the-Market Equity Program - On November 15, 2022, we entered into an Equity Distribution Agreement with Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, pursuant to which we may offer and sell, from time to time, up to 3,000,000 shares of our common stock through Morgan Stanley as sales agent. We intend to use the net proceeds of sales under this program to fund future acquisitions from time to time or for general corporate purposes. Pursuant to the agreement, shares may be sold by means of ordinary brokers’ transactions, including on the New York Stock Exchange, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market prices, or at negotiated prices, in block transactions, or as otherwise agreed upon by us and Morgan Stanley. During the quarter ended June 30, 2023, we did not sell shares of our common stock under the program.

Common Stock Issuances - Another source of liquidity to us is the issuance of our common stock pursuant to our stock option and employee stock purchase plans. Proceeds from the issuance of common stock under these plans for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, were $66.0 million and $69.1 million, respectively. On May 10, 2022, our stockholders approved the 2022 Long-Term Incentive Plan (which we refer to as the LTIP), which replaced our previous stockholder-approved 2017 Long-Term Incentive Plan. All of our officers, employees and non-employee directors are eligible to receive awards under the LTIP. Awards that may be granted under the LTIP include non-qualified and incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock units and performance units, any or all of which may be made contingent upon the achievement of performance criteria. Stock options with respect to 12.0 million shares (less any shares of restricted stock issued under the LTIP - 2.8 million shares of our common stock were

- 64 -

available for this purpose as of June 30, 2023) were available for grant under the LTIP at June 30, 2023. Our employee stock purchase plan allows our employees to purchase our common stock at 95% of its fair market value. Proceeds from the issuance of our common stock related to these plans have contributed favorably to net cash provided by financing activities in the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, and we believe this favorable trend will continue in the foreseeable future.

We have a qualified contributory savings and thrift 401(k) plan covering the majority of our domestic employees. For eligible employees who have met the plan’s age and service requirements to receive matching contributions, we historically have matched 100% of pre-tax and Roth elective deferrals up to a maximum of 5.0% of eligible compensation, subject to federal limits on plan contributions and not in excess of the maximum amount deductible for federal income tax purposes. Beginning with the match paid in 2021, the amount matched by the company will be discretionary and annually determined by management. Employees must be employed and eligible for the plan on the last day of the plan year to receive a matching contribution, subject to certain exceptions enumerated in the plan document. Matching contributions are subject to a five-year graduated vesting schedule and can be funded in cash or company stock. We expensed (net of plan forfeitures) $42.3 million and $40.0 million related to the plan in the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. During 2022, our board of directors authorized the 5.0% employer matching contribution on eligible compensation to the 401(k) plan for the 2022 plan year to be funded with our common stock, which we funded in February 2023. During 2021, our board of directors authorized the 5.0% employer matching contribution on eligible compensation to the 401(k) plan for the 2021 plan year to be funded with our common stock, which we funded in February 2022.

Outlook - We believe that we have sufficient capital and access to additional capital to meet our short- and long-term cash flow needs.

Critical Accounting Estimates

There have been no changes in our critical accounting estimates, which include revenue recognition, income taxes and intangible assets/earnout obligations, as discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Business Combinations and Dispositions

See Note 3 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements for a discussion of our business combinations during the six-month period ended June 30, 2023. We did not have any material dispositions during the six-month period ended June 30, 2023.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitati ve Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to various market risks in our day to day operations. Market risk is the potential loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as interest and foreign currency exchange rates and equity prices. The following analyses present the hypothetical loss in fair value of the financial instruments held by us at June 30, 2023 that are sensitive to changes in interest rates. The range of changes in interest rates used in the analyses reflects our view of changes that are reasonably possible over a one‑year period. This discussion of market risks related to our consolidated balance sheet includes estimates of future economic environments caused by changes in market risks. The effect of actual changes in these market risk factors may differ materially from our estimates. In the ordinary course of business, we also face risks that are either nonfinancial or unquantifiable, including credit risk and legal risk. These risks are not included in the following analyses.

Our invested assets are primarily held as cash and cash equivalents, which are subject to various market risk exposures such as interest rate risk. The fair value of our portfolio of cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2023 approximated its carrying value due to its short‑term duration. We estimated market risk as the potential decrease in fair value resulting from a hypothetical one‑percentage point increase in interest rates for the instruments contained in the cash and cash equivalents investment portfolio. The resulting fair values were not materially different from their carrying values at June 30, 2023.

At June 30, 2023, we had $6,498.0 million of borrowings outstanding under our various senior notes and note purchase agreements. The aggregate estimated fair value of these borrowings at June 30, 2023 was $5,481.7 million due to their long‑term duration and fixed interest rates associated with these debt obligations. No active or observable market exists for our private placement long-term debt. Therefore, the estimated fair value of this debt is based on the income valuation approach, which is a valuation technique that converts future amounts (for example, cash flows or income and expenses) to a single current (that is, discounted) amount. The fair value measurement is determined on the basis of the value indicated by current market expectations about those future amounts. Because our debt issuances generate a measurable income stream for each lender, the income approach was deemed to be an appropriate methodology for valuing the private placement long-term debt. The methodology used calculated the original deal spread at the time of each debt issuance, which was equal to the difference between the yield of each issuance (the coupon rate) and the equivalent benchmark treasury yield at that time. The market spread as of the valuation date was calculated, which is equal to the difference between an index for investment grade insurers and the equivalent benchmark treasury yield today. An implied premium or discount to the par value of each debt issuance based on the difference between the origination deal spread and market as of the valuation date was then calculated. The index we relied on to represent investment graded insurers was the Bloomberg Valuation Services (BVAL) U.S. Insurers BBB index. This index is comprised primarily of insurance brokerage firms and was representative of

- 65 -

the industry in which we operate. For the purpose of our analysis, the average BBB rate was assumed to be the appropriate borrowing rate for us.

We estimated market risk as the potential impact on the value of the debt recorded in our consolidated balance sheet based on a hypothetical one‑percentage point decrease in our weighted average borrowing rate at June 30, 2023 and the resulting fair values would have been $586.5 million lower than their carrying value (or $5,911.5 million). We estimated market risk as the potential impact on the value of the debt recorded in our consolidated balance sheet resulting from a hypothetical one‑percentage point increase in our weighted average borrowing rate at June 30, 2023 and the resulting fair values would have been $1,390.8 million lower than their carrying value (or $5,107.2 million).

At June 30, 2023, we had $495.0 million of borrowings outstanding under our Credit Agreement and $191.2 million of borrowings outstanding under our Premium Financing Debt Facility. The fair value of these borrowings approximate their carrying value due to their short‑term duration and variable interest rates associated with these debt obligations. Market risk is estimated as the potential increase in fair value resulting from a hypothetical one‑percentage point decrease in our weighted average short-term borrowing rate at June 30, 2023, and the resulting fair value is not materially different from their carrying value.

We are subject to foreign currency exchange rate risk primarily from one of our larger U.K. based brokerage subsidiaries that incurs expenses denominated primarily in British pounds while receiving a substantial portion of its revenues in U.S. dollars. Please see Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 for additional information regarding potential foreign exchange rate risks arising from Brexit. In addition, we are subject to foreign currency exchange rate risk from our Australian, Canadian, Indian, Jamaican, New Zealand, Norwegian, Singaporean and various Caribbean and Latin American operations because we transact business in their local denominated currencies. Foreign currency gains (losses) related to this market risk are recorded in earnings before income taxes as transactions occur. Assuming a hypothetical adverse change of 10% in the average foreign currency exchange rate for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023 (a weakening of the U.S. dollar), earnings before income taxes would have increased by approximately $26.6 million. Assuming a hypothetical favorable change of 10% in the average foreign currency exchange rate for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023 (a strengthening of the U.S. dollar), earnings before income taxes would have decreased by approximately $56.8 million. We are also subject to foreign currency exchange rate risk associated with the translation of local currencies of our foreign subsidiaries into U.S. dollars. We manage the balance sheets of our foreign subsidiaries, where practical, such that foreign liabilities are matched with equal foreign assets, maintaining a “balanced book” which minimizes the effects of currency fluctuations. However, our consolidated financial position is exposed to foreign currency exchange risk related to intra-entity loans between our U.S. based subsidiaries and our non-U.S. based subsidiaries that are denominated in the respective local foreign currency. A transaction that is in a foreign currency is first remeasured at the entity’s functional (local) currency, where applicable, (which is an adjustment to consolidated earnings) and then translated to the reporting (U.S. dollar) currency (which is an adjustment to consolidated stockholders’ equity) for consolidated reporting purposes. If the transaction is already denominated in the foreign entity’s functional currency, only the translation to U.S. dollar reporting is necessary. The remeasurement process required by U.S. GAAP for such foreign currency loan transactions will give rise to a consolidated unrealized foreign exchange gain or loss, which could be material, that is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive earnings (loss).

Historically, we have not entered into derivatives or other similar financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. However, with respect to managing foreign currency exchange rate risk in India, Norway and the U.K., we have periodically purchased financial instruments to minimize our exposure to this risk. During the three-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we had several monthly forward contracts and options in place with an external financial institution that are designed to hedge a significant portion of our future U.K. and Norway currency revenues through various future payment dates. In addition, during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we had several monthly put/call options in place with an external financial institution that were designed to hedge a significant portion of our Indian currency disbursements through various future payment dates. Although these hedging strategies were designed to protect us against significant U.K. and Indian currency exchange rate movements, we are still exposed to some foreign currency exchange rate risk for the portion of the payments and currency exchange rate that are unhedged. All of these hedges are accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”, and periodically are tested for effectiveness in accordance with such guidance. In the scenario where such hedge does not pass the effectiveness test, the hedge will be re‑measured at the stated point and the appropriate loss, if applicable, would be recognized. In the six-month period ended June 30, 2023 there has been no such effect on our financial presentation. The impact of these hedging strategies was not material to our unaudited consolidated financial statements for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023. See Note 11 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements for the changes in fair value of these derivative instruments reflected in comprehensive earnings at June 30, 2023.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

We carried out an evaluation required by the Exchange Act, 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 defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and to provide reasonable assurance that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

During the most recent fiscal quarter, there has not occurred any change in our internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives as specified above. Management does not expect, however, that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent or detect all errors and fraud. Any control system, no matter how well designed and operated, is based upon certain assumptions and can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that its objectives will be met. Further, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our company have been detected.

Amounts in this column include shares of our common stock purchased by the trustees of trusts established under our Deferred Equity Participation Plan, including sub-plans (which we refer to as the DEPP), our Deferred Cash Participation Plan (which we refer to as the DCPP) and our Supplemental Savings and Thrift Plan (which we refer to as the Supplemental Plan), respectively. These plans are considered to be unfunded for purposes of federal tax law since the assets of these trusts are available to our creditors in the event of our financial insolvency. The DEPP is an unfunded, non-qualified deferred compensation plan that generally provides for distributions to certain of our key executives when they reach age 62 or upon or after their actual retirement. Under sub-plans of the DEPP for certain production staff, the plan generally provides for vesting and/or distributions no sooner than five years from the date of awards, although certain awards vest and/or distribute after the earlier of fifteen years or the participant reaching age 65. See Note 9 to the June 30, 2023 unaudited consolidated financial statements in

- 67 -

this report for more information regarding the DEPP. The DCPP is an unfunded, non-qualified deferred compensation plan for certain key employees, other than executive officers, that generally provides for vesting and/or distributions no sooner than five years from the date of awards. Under the terms of the DEPP and the DCPP, we may contribute cash to the trust and instruct the trustee to acquire a specified number of shares of our common stock on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. In the second quarter of 2023, we instructed the trustee for the DEPP and the DCPP to reinvest dividends on shares of our common stock held by these trusts and to purchase our common stock using cash that we contributed to the DCPP related to 2023 awards under the DCPP. The Supplemental Plan is an unfunded, non-qualified deferred compensation plan that allows certain highly compensated employees to defer compensation, including company match amounts, on a before-tax basis or after‑tax basis. Under the terms of the Supplemental Plan, all amounts credited to an employee’s account may be deemed invested, at the employee’s election, in a number of investment options that include various mutual funds, an annuity product and a fund representing our common stock. When an employee elects to have some or all of the amounts credited to the employee’s account under the Supplemental Plan deemed to be invested in the fund representing our common stock, the trustee of the trust for the Supplemental Plan purchases shares of our common stock in a number sufficient to ensure that the trust holds a number of shares of our common stock with a value equal to all equivalent to the amounts deemed invested in the fund representing our common stock. We want to ensure that at the time when an employee becomes entitled to a distribution under the terms of the Supplemental Plan, any amounts deemed to be invested in the fund representing our common stock are distributed in the form of shares of our common stock held by the trust. We established the trusts for the DEPP, the DCPP and the Supplemental Plan to assist us in discharging our deferred compensation obligations under these plans. All assets of these trusts, including any shares of our common stock purchased by the trustees, remain, at all times, assets of the company, subject to the claims of our creditors in the event of our financial insolvency. The terms of the DEPP, the DCPP and the Supplemental Plan do not provide for a specified limit on the number of shares of common stock that may be purchased by the respective trustees of the trusts.

The average price paid per share is calculated on a settlement basis and does not include commissions.

Effective July 28, 2021, the board of directors approved a common stock repurchase plan of up to $1.5 billion of common stock. Repurchases of common stock may be effected from time to time through open market purchases, trading plans established in accordance with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules, accelerated stock repurchases, private transactions or other means, depending on satisfactory market conditions, applicable legal requirements and other factors. The repurchase plan has no expiration date and we are under no commitment or obligation to repurchase any particular amount of our common stock under his plan. At our discretion, we may suspend the repurchase plan at any time.
