Disclosure Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Brown & Brown, Inc., together with its subsidiaries (collectively, “we,” “Brown & Brown” or the “Company”), makes “forward-looking statements” within the “safe harbor” provision of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, as amended, throughout this report and in the documents we incorporate by reference into this report , including those relating to the potential effects of the COVID-19 pandemic (“COVID-19”) on the Company’s business, operations, financial performance and prospects. You can identify these statements by forward-looking words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “intend,” “estimate,” “plan” and “continue” or similar words. We have based these statements on our current expectations about potential future events. Although we believe the expectations expressed in the forward-looking statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the reports, statements, information and announcements incorporated by reference into this report are based upon reasonable assumptions within the bounds of our knowledge of our business, a number of factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements, whether oral or written, made by us or on our behalf. Further, statements about the effects of COVID-19 on our business, operations, financial performance and prospects may constitute forward-looking statements and are subject to the risk that the actual impacts may differ, possibly materially, from what is reflected in those forward-looking statements due to factors and future developments that are uncertain, unpredictable and in many cases beyond our control, including the scope and duration of COVID-19 (including through any new variant strains of the underlying virus), the effectiveness of and accessibility to vaccines, the pace and rate at which vaccines are administered, actions taken by governmental authorities in response to COVID-19, and the direct and indirect impact of COVID-19 on our customers, insurance carriers, third parties and us. Many of these factors have previously been identified in filings or statements made by us or on our behalf. Important factors which could cause our actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements in this report include but are not limited to the following items, in addition to those matters described in Part I, Item 2 “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”:

| • | The severity and duration of COVID-19 (including through any new variant strains of the underlying virus), the effectiveness of and accessibility to vaccines, the pace and rate at which vaccines are administered, and the resulting impact on the U.S. economy, the global economy, and the Company’s business, liquidity, customers, insurance carriers and third parties;

| • | The inability to retain or hire qualified employees, as well as the loss of any of our executive officers or other key employees;

| • | Acquisition-related risks that could negatively affect the success of our growth strategy, including the possibility that we may not be able to successfully identify suitable acquisition candidates, complete acquisitions, integrate acquired businesses into our operations, and expand into new markets;

| • | A cybersecurity attack or any other interruption in information technology and/or data security and/or outsourcing relationships;

| • | The requirement for additional resources and time to adequately respond to dynamics resulting from rapid technological change;

| • | The loss of or significant change to any of our insurance company relationships, which could result in additional expense, loss of market share or material decrease in our profit-sharing contingent commissions, guaranteed supplemental commissions or incentive commissions;

| • | Adverse economic conditions, natural disasters, or regulatory changes in states where we have a concentration of our business;

| • | The inability to maintain our culture or a change in management, management philosophy or our business strategy;

| • | Risks facing us in our Services Segment, including our third-party claims administration operations, that are distinct from those we face in our insurance intermediary operations;

| • | The limitations of our system of disclosure and internal controls and procedures in preventing errors or fraud, or in informing management of all material information in a timely manner;

| • | The significant control certain existing shareholders have over the Company;

| • | Risks related to our international operations, which may require more time and expense than our domestic operations to achieve or maintain profitability;

| • | Changes in data privacy and protection laws and regulations or any failure to comply with such laws and regulations;

| • | Improper disclosure of confidential information;

| • | The potential adverse effect of certain actual or potential claims, regulatory actions or proceedings on our businesses, results of operations, financial condition or liquidity;

| • | Uncertainty in our business practices and compensation arrangements due to potential changes in regulations;

| • | Regulatory changes that could reduce our profitability or growth by increasing compliance costs, technology compliance, restricting the products or services we may sell, the markets we may enter, the methods by which we may sell our products and services, or the prices we may charge for our services and the form of compensation we may accept from our customers, carriers and third-parties;

| • | A decrease in demand for liability insurance as a result of tort reform litigation;

| • | Our failure to comply with any covenants contained in our debt agreements;

| • | The possibility that covenants in our debt agreements could prevent us from engaging in certain potentially beneficial activities;

| • | Changes in the U.S.-based credit markets that might adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition;

| • | Risks associated with the current interest rate environment, and to the extent we use debt to finance our investments, changes in interest rates will affect our cost of capital and net investment income;

| • | Disintermediation within the insurance industry, including increased competition from insurance companies, technology companies and the financial services industry, as well as the shift away from traditional insurance markets;

| • | Changes in current U.S. or global economic conditions;

| • | Effects related to pandemics, epidemics, or outbreaks of infectious diseases;

| • | Conditions that result in reduced insurer capacity;

| • | Quarterly and annual variations in our commissions that result from the timing of policy renewals and the net effect of new and lost business production;

| • | Intangible asset risk, including the possibility that our goodwill may become impaired in the future; and

| • | Other risks and uncertainties as may be detailed from time to time in our public announcements and Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) filings.

Assumptions as to any of the foregoing, and all statements, are not based upon historical fact, but rather reflect our current expectations concerning future results and events. Forward-looking statements that we make or that are made by others on our behalf are based upon a knowledge of our business and the environment in which we operate, but because of the factors listed above, among others, actual results may differ from those in the forward-looking statements. Consequently, these cautionary statements qualify all of the forward-looking statements we make herein. We cannot assure you that the results or developments anticipated by us will be realized or, even if substantially realized, that those results or developments will result in the expected consequences for us or affect us, our business or our operations in the way we expect. We caution readers not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of their dates. We assume no obligation to update any of the forward-looking statements.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 Nature of Operations

Brown & Brown, Inc., a Florida corporation, and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Brown & Brown” or the “Company”) is a diversified insurance agency, wholesale brokerage, insurance programs and service organization that markets and sells insurance products and services, primarily in the property, casualty and employee benefits areas. Brown & Brown’s business is divided into four reportable segments. The Retail Segment provides a broad range of insurance products and services to commercial, public and quasi-public entities, professional and individual insured customers, and non-insurance risk-mitigating products through our automobile dealer services (“F&I”) businesses. The National Programs Segment, which acts as a managing general agent (“MGA”), provides professional liability and related package products for certain professionals, a range of insurance products for individuals, flood coverage, and targeted products and services designated for specific industries, trade groups, governmental entities and market niches, all of which are delivered through a nationwide network of independent agents, including Brown & Brown retail agents. The Wholesale Brokerage Segment markets and sells excess and surplus commercial and personal lines insurance, primarily through independent agents and brokers, as well as Brown & Brown retail agents. The Services Segment provides insurance-related services, including third-party claims administration and comprehensive medical utilization management services in both the workers’ compensation and all-lines liability arenas, as well as Medicare Set-aside services, Social Security disability and Medicare benefits advocacy services and claims adjusting services.

NOTE 2 Basis of Financial Reporting

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation have been included. These unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes thereto set forth in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

The preparation of these financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, as well as disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities, at the date of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2020-04, "Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting." The amendments provide optional guidance for a limited time to ease the potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform. The new guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The amendments apply only to contracts and hedging relationships that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued due to reference rate reform. These amendments are effective immediately and may be applied prospectively to contract modifications made and hedging relationships entered into or evaluated on or before December 31, 2022. We have evaluated our contracts and the available expedients provided by the new standard and can assert there is no impact to any carrying value of assets or liabilities as our floating-rate debt instruments that are indexed to LIBOR are carried at amortized cost.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes”. The standard removes specific exceptions in the current rules and eliminates the need for an organization to analyze whether the following apply in a given period: (a) exception to the incremental approach for intra-period tax allocation; (b) exceptions to accounting for basis differences when there are ownership changes in foreign investments and (c) exception in interim period income tax accounting for year-to-date losses that exceed anticipated losses. The standard also is designed to improve financial statement preparers’ application of income tax-related guidance and simplify GAAP for (a) franchise taxes that are partially based on income; (b) transactions with a government that result in a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill; (c) separate financial statements of legal entities that are not subject to tax and (d) enacted changes in tax laws in interim periods. The Company adopted ASU 2019-12 effective January 1, 2021. The impact of adopting this standard was not material to the presentation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

(1) | Base commissions generally represent a percentage of the premium paid by an insured and are affected by fluctuations in both premium rate levels charged by insurance companies and the insureds’ underlying “insurable exposure units,” which are units that insurance companies use to measure or express insurance exposed to risk (such as property values, or sales and payroll levels) to determine what premium to charge the insured. Insurance companies establish these premium rates based upon many factors, including loss experience, risk profile and reinsurance rates paid by such insurance companies, none of which we control.

(2) | Fee revenues relate to fees for services other than securing coverage for our customers, fees negotiated in lieu of commissions, and F&I products and services.

(3) | Incentive commissions include additional commissions over base commissions received from insurance carriers based on predetermined production levels mutually agreed upon by both parties.

(4) | Profit-sharing contingent commissions are based primarily on underwriting results, but may also reflect considerations for volume, growth and/or retention.

(5) | Guaranteed supplemental commissions represent guaranteed fixed-base agreements in lieu of profit-sharing contingent commissions.

(6) | Investment income consists primarily of interest on cash and investments.

(7) | Other income consists primarily of legal settlements and other miscellaneous income.

(8) | Fees within other reflects the elimination of intercompany revenues.

Contract Assets and Liabilities

The balances of contract assets and contract liabilities arising from contracts with customers as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 were as follows:

(in thousands) |  | June 30, 2021 |  |  | December 31, 2020 |
Contract assets |  | $ | 365,084 |  |  | $ | 308,755 |
Contract liabilities |  | $ | 82,447 |  |  | $ | 80,997 |

Unbilled receivables (contract assets) arise when the Company recognizes revenue for amounts which have not yet been billed in the Company's systems and are reflected in premiums, commissions and fee receivables in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. The increase in contract assets over the balance as of December 31, 2020 is due to normal seasonality and growth in our business. A significant portion of our business includes policies that renew in the first six months of the year, marking the satisfaction of the contractual performance obligation of arranging insurance coverage for our customers and therefore the recognition of revenue, but for which payment is received in installments in one or more subsequent quarters.

11

Table of Contents

Deferred revenue (contract liabilities) relates to payments received in advance of performance under the contract before the transfer of a good or service to the customer. Deferred revenue is reflected within accrued expenses and other liabilities for those to be recognized in less than 12 months and in other liabilities for those to be recognized more than 12 months from the date presented in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

As of June 30, 2021, deferred revenue consisted of $54.2 million as current portion to be recognized within one year and $28.2 million in long term to be recognized beyond one year. As of December 31, 2020, deferred revenue consisted of $54.0 million as current portion to be recognized within one year and $27.0 million in long-term deferred revenue to be recognized beyond one year.

During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the net amount of revenue recognized related to performance obligations satisfied in a previous period was $19.6 million, consisting of additional variable consideration received on our incentive and profit-sharing contingent commissions. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the net amount of revenue recognized related to performance obligations satisfied in a previous period was $10.5 million, consisting of $17.6 million of additional variable consideration received on our incentive and profit-sharing contingent commissions, offset by $7.1 million of revised estimates related to variable consideration on policies where the exposure units were expected to be impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic (“COVID-19”).

Other Assets and Deferred Cost

Incremental cost to obtain - The Company defers certain costs to obtain customer contracts primarily as they relate to commission-based compensation plans in the Retail Segment, in which the Company pays an incremental amount of compensation on new business. These incremental costs are deferred and amortized over a 15-year period. The cost to obtain balance within the other assets caption in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet was $49.6 million and $42.2 million as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company deferred $9.1 million of incremental cost to obtain customer contracts. The Company recorded an expense of $1.7 million associated with the incremental cost to obtain customer contracts for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Cost to fulfill - The Company defers certain costs to fulfill contracts and recognizes these costs as the associated performance obligations are fulfilled. The cost to fulfill balance within the other current assets caption in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2021 was $68.2 million, which is inclusive of deferrals from businesses acquired in the current year. The cost to fulfill balance as of December 31, 2020 was $77.8 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company had net expense of $12.2 million related to the release of previously deferred contract fulfillment costs associated with performance obligations that were satisfied in the period, net of current year deferrals for costs incurred that related to performance obligations yet to be fulfilled.

NOTE 4 Net Income Per Share

Basic net income per share is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares (including participating securities) issued and outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares issued and outstanding plus equivalent shares, assuming the issuance of all potentially issuable common shares. The dilutive effect of potentially issuable common shares is computed by application of the treasury-stock method. The following is a reconciliation between basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding:

NOTE 5 Business Combinations

During the six months ended June 30, 2021, Brown & Brown acquired all of the share capital of one insurance intermediary, assets and assumed certain liabilities of two insurance intermediaries, and one book of business (customer accounts) for a total of four acquisitions. Additionally, adjustments were recorded to the purchase price allocation of certain prior acquisitions completed within the last 12 months as permitted by Accounting Standards Codification Topic 805 — Business Combinations (“ASC 805”). Such adjustments are presented in the “Other” category within the following two tables. The recorded purchase price for all acquisitions includes an estimation of the fair value of liabilities associated with any potential earn-out provisions. Subsequent changes in the fair value of earn-out obligations will be recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income when incurred.

The fair value of earn-out obligations is based on the present value of the expected future payments to be made to the sellers of the acquired businesses in accordance with the provisions outlined in the respective purchase agreements. In determining fair value, the acquired business’s future performance is estimated using financial projections developed by management for the acquired business and reflects market participant assumptions regarding revenue growth and/or profitability. The expected future payments are estimated on the basis of the earn-out formula and performance targets specified in each purchase agreement compared to the associated financial projections. These payments are then discounted to present value using a risk-adjusted rate that takes into consideration the likelihood that the forecasted earn-out payments will be made.

Based on the acquisition date and the complexity of the underlying valuation work, certain amounts included in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements may be provisional and thus subject to further adjustments within the permitted measurement period, as defined in ASC 805. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, adjustments were made within the permitted measurement period that resulted in a decrease in the aggregate purchase price of the affected acquisitions of $1.8 million. These measurement period adjustments have been reflected as current period adjustments in the six months ended June 30, 2021 in accordance with the guidance in ASU 2015-16 “Business Combinations.” The measurement period adjustments primarily impacted goodwill, with no effect on earnings or cash in the current period.

The following table summarizes the purchase price allocations made as of the date of each acquisition for current year acquisitions and adjustments made during the measurement period for prior year acquisitions. Cash paid for four acquisitions was $162.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021. During the measurement periods, the Company will adjust assets or liabilities if new information is obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date that, if known, would have resulted in the recognition of those assets and liabilities as of that date. These adjustments are made in the period in which the amounts are determined, and the current period income effect of such adjustments will be calculated as if the adjustments had been completed as of the acquisition date.

The weighted average useful lives for the acquired amortizable intangible assets are as follows: purchased customer accounts, 15 years; and non-compete agreements, 5 years.

Goodwill of $121.8 million, which is net of any opening balance sheet adjustments within the allowable measurement period, was allocated to the Retail, National Programs, and Wholesale Brokerage Segments in the amounts of $122.6 million, ($1.3) million, and $0.6 million, respectively. Of the total goodwill of $121.8 million, the amount currently deductible for income tax purposes is $96.7 million and the remaining $25.1 million relates to the recorded earn-out payables and will not be deductible until it is earned and paid.

For the acquisitions completed during 2021, the results of operations since the acquisition dates have been combined with those of the Company. The total revenues from the acquisitions completed through June 30, 2021, included in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income for the six months ended June 30, 2021, was $17.5 million. The income before income taxes, including the intercompany cost of capital charge, from the acquisitions completed through June 30, 2021, included in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income for the six months ended June 30, 2021, was a loss of $0.1 million. If the acquisitions had occurred as of the beginning of the respective periods, the Company’s estimated results of operations would be as shown in the following table. These unaudited pro forma results are not necessarily indicative of the actual results of operations that would have occurred had the acquisitions actually been made at the beginning of the respective periods.

On June 28, 2017, the Company entered into an amended and restated credit agreement (the “Amended and Restated Credit Agreement”) with the lenders named therein, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as administrative agent and certain other banks as co-syndication agents and co-documentation agents. The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement amended and restated the credit agreement dated April 17, 2014, among such parties (the “Original Credit Agreement”). The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement extends the applicable maturity date of the existing revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) of $800.0 million to June 28, 2022 and re-evidences unsecured term loans at $400.0 million while also extending the applicable maturity date to June 28, 2022. The quarterly term loan principal amortization schedule was reset. At the time of the execution of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, $67.5 million of principal from the original unsecured term loans was repaid using operating cash balances, and the Company added an additional $2.8 million in debt issuance costs related to the Revolving Credit Facility to the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Company also expensed to the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income $0.2 million of debt issuance costs related to the Original Credit Agreement due to certain lenders exiting prior to execution of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. The Company also carried forward $1.6 million on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet the remaining unamortized portion of the Original Credit Agreement debt issuance costs, which will be amortized over the term of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. As of June 30, 2021, there was an outstanding debt balance issued under the term loan of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement of $270.0 million and no borrowings outstanding against the Revolving Credit Facility. As of December 31, 2020, there was an outstanding debt balance issued under the term loan of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement of $290.0 million with no borrowings outstanding against the Revolving Credit Facility.

On September 18, 2014, the Company issued $500.0 million of 4.200% unsecured Senior Notes due in 2024. The Senior Notes were given investment grade ratings of BBB-/Baa3 with a stable outlook. The notes are subject to certain covenant restrictions and regulations which are customary for credit rated obligations. At the time of funding, the proceeds were offered at a discount of the original note amount which also excluded an underwriting fee discount. The net proceeds received from the issuance were used to repay the outstanding balance of $475.0 million on the Revolving Credit Facility and for other general corporate purposes. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, there was an outstanding debt balance of $500.0 million exclusive of the associated discount balance.

On December 21, 2018, the Company entered into a term loan credit agreement (the “Term Loan Credit Agreement”) with the lenders named therein, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent, and certain other banks as co-syndication agents and as joint lead arrangers and joint bookrunners. The Term Loan Credit Agreement provides for an unsecured term loan in the initial amount of $300.0 million, which may, subject to lenders’ discretion, potentially be increased up to an aggregate amount of $450.0 million (the “Term Loan”). The Term Loan is repayable over the five-year term from the effective date of the Term Loan Credit Agreement, which was December 21, 2018. Based on the Company’s net debt leverage ratio or a non-credit enhanced senior unsecured long-term debt rating as determined by Moody’s Investor Service and Standard & Poor’s Rating Service, the rates of interest charged on the term loan are 1.00% to 1.75%, above the adjusted 1-Month LIBOR rate. On December 21, 2018, the Company borrowed $300.0 million under the Term Loan Credit Agreement and used $250.0 million of the proceeds to reduce indebtedness under the Revolving Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2021, there was an outstanding debt balance issued under the Term Loan of $255.0 million. As of December 31, 2020, there was an outstanding debt balance issued under the Term Loan of $270.0 million.

On March 11, 2019, the Company completed the issuance of $350.0 million aggregate principal amount of the Company's 4.500% Senior Notes due 2029. The Senior Notes were given investment grade ratings of BBB-/Baa3 with a stable outlook. The notes are subject to certain covenant restrictions, which are customary for credit rated obligations. At the time of funding, the proceeds were offered at a discount of the original note amount, which also excluded an underwriting fee discount. The net proceeds received from the issuance were used to repay a portion of the outstanding balance of $350.0 million on the Revolving Credit Facility, utilized in connection with the financing related to the Hays Companies acquisition and for other general corporate purposes. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, there was an outstanding debt balance of $350.0 million exclusive of the associated discount balance.

On September 24, 2020, the Company completed the issuance of $700.0 million aggregate principal amount of the Company's 2.375% Senior Notes due 2031. The Senior Notes were given investment grade ratings of BBB- stable outlook and Baa3 positive outlook. The notes are subject to certain covenant restrictions, which are customary for credit rated obligations. At the time of funding, the proceeds were offered at a discount of the original note amount, which also excluded an underwriting fee discount. The net proceeds received from the issuance were used to repay a portion of the outstanding balance of $200.0 million on the Revolving Credit Facility, utilized in connection with the financing related to the acquisitions of LP Insurance Services, LLP and CKP Insurance, LLC and for other general corporate purposes. As of June 30, 2021 there was an outstanding debt balance of $700.0 million exclusive of the associated discount balance.

The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and the Term Loan Credit Agreement require the Company to maintain certain financial ratios and comply with certain other covenants. The Company was in compliance with all such covenants as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

The 30-day Adjusted LIBOR Rate for the term loan of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and the Term Loan Credit Agreement as of June 30, 2021 were each 0.125%.

NOTE 9 Leases

Substantially all of the Company's operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities represent real estate leases for office space used to conduct the Company's business that expire on various dates through 2041. Leases generally contain renewal options and escalation clauses based upon increases in the lessors’ operating expenses and other charges. The Company anticipates that most of these leases will be renewed or replaced upon expiration.

The Company assesses at inception of a contract if it contains a lease. This assessment is based on: (1) whether the contract involves the use of a distinct identified asset, (2) whether the Company obtains the right to substantially all the economic benefit from the use of the asset throughout the period, and (3) whether the Company has the right to direct the use of the asset.

The right-of-use asset is initially measured at cost, which is primarily composed of the initial lease liability, plus any initial direct costs incurred, less any lease incentives received. The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the minimum lease payments through the term of the lease. Minimum lease payments are discounted to present value using the incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date, which approximates the rate of interest the Company expects to pay on a secured borrowing in an amount equal to the lease payments for the underlying asset under similar terms and economic conditions. The Company has elected not to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases that have a total term of 12 months or less. The effect of short-term leases on the Company's right-of-use asset and lease liability would not be significant.

As of June 30, 2021, the Company has entered into future lease agreements expected to commence later in 2021 and 2022 consisting of undiscounted lease liabilities of $0.9 million and $8.8 million, respectively.

Lease expense for operating leases consists of the lease payments, inclusive of lease incentives, plus any initial direct costs, and is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Included in lease expense are any variable lease payments incurred in the period that were not included in the initial lease liability. Variable lease cost is lease payments that are based on an index or similar rate. They are initially measured using the index or rate in effect at lease commencement and are based on the minimum payments stated in the lease. Additional payments based on the change in an index or rate, or payments based on a change in the Company's portion of the operating expenses, including real estate taxes and insurance, are recorded as a period expense when incurred.

NOTE 11 Legal and Regulatory Proceedings

The Company is involved in numerous pending or threatened proceedings by or against Brown & Brown, Inc. or one or more of its subsidiaries that arise in the ordinary course of business. The damages that may be claimed against the Company in these various proceedings are in some cases substantial, including in certain instances claims for punitive or extraordinary damages. Some of these claims and lawsuits have been resolved; others are in the process of being resolved and others are still in the investigation or discovery phase. The Company will continue to respond appropriately to these claims and lawsuits and to vigorously protect its interests.

The Company continues to assess certain litigation and claims to determine the amounts, if any, that management believes will be paid as a result of such claims and litigation and, therefore, additional losses may be accrued and paid in the future, which could adversely impact the Company’s operating results, cash flows and overall liquidity. The Company maintains third-party insurance policies to provide coverage for certain legal claims, in an effort to mitigate its overall exposure to unanticipated claims or adverse decisions. However, as (i) one or more of the Company’s insurance carriers could take the position that portions of these claims are not covered by the Company’s insurance, (ii) to the extent that payments are made to resolve claims and lawsuits, applicable insurance policy limits are eroded and (iii) the claims and lawsuits relating to these matters are continuing to develop, it is possible that future results of operations or cash flows for any particular quarterly or annual period could be materially affected by unfavorable resolutions of these matters. Based upon the AM Best Company ratings of these third-party insurers and other factors, management does not believe there is a substantial risk of an insurer’s material non-performance related to any current insured claims.

On the basis of current information, the availability of insurance and legal advice, in management’s opinion, the Company is not currently involved in any legal proceedings which, individually or in the aggregate, would have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, operations and/or cash flows.

NOTE 12 Segment Information

Brown & Brown’s business is divided into four reportable segments: (1) the Retail Segment, which provides a broad range of insurance products and services to commercial, public and quasi-public entities, and to professional and individual customers, and non-insurance risk-mitigating products through our F&I businesses, (2) the National Programs Segment, which acts as an MGA, provides professional liability and related package products for certain professionals, a range of insurance products for individuals, flood coverage, and targeted products and services designated for specific industries, trade groups, governmental entities and market niches, all of which are delivered through nationwide networks of independent agents, and Brown & Brown retail agents, (3) the Wholesale Brokerage Segment, which markets and sells excess and surplus commercial and personal lines insurance, primarily through independent agents and brokers, as well as Brown & Brown retail agents, and (4) the Services Segment, which provides insurance-related services, including third-party claims administration and comprehensive medical utilization management services in both the workers’ compensation and all-lines liability arenas, as well as Medicare Set-aside services, Social Security disability and Medicare benefits advocacy services and claims adjusting services.

These operations earned $19.1 million and $9.2 million of total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. These operations earned $36.6 million and $16.1 million of total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Tangible long-lived assets held outside of the United States as of June 30, 2021 and 2020 were not material.

The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in Note 1 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. Intersegment revenues are eliminated.

Proceeds from the sales and maturity of the Company’s investment in fixed maturity securities were $5.4 million. This along with maturing time deposits yielded total cash proceeds from the sale of investments of $6.9 million in the period of January 1, 2021 to June 30, 2021. These proceeds were principally used to purchase additional fixed maturity securities and time deposits. The gains and losses realized on the sale of securities for the period from January 1, 2021 to June 30, 2021 were insignificant.

Realized gains and losses are reported on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, with the cost of securities sold determined on a specific identification basis.

At June 30, 2021, investments with a fair value of approximately $4.2 million were on deposit with state insurance departments to satisfy regulatory requirements.

NOTE 14 Insurance Company WNFIC

Although the reinsurers are liable to the Company for amounts reinsured, our subsidiary, Wright National Flood Insurance Company (“WNFIC”) remains primarily liable to its policyholders for the full amount of the policies written whether or not the reinsurers meet their obligations to the Company when they become due. The effects of reinsurance on premiums written and earned are as follows:

|  | Six months ended June 30, |
(in thousands) |  | Written |  |  | Earned |
Direct premiums |  | $ | 349,512 |  |  | $ | 358,417 |
Ceded premiums |  |  | (349,505 | ) |  |  | (358,410 | )
Net premiums |  | $ | 7 |  |  | $ | 7 |

All premiums written by WNFIC under the National Flood Insurance Program (“NFIP”) are 100% ceded to the Federal Emergency Management Agency, or FEMA, for which WNFIC received a 30.0% expense allowance from January 1, 2021 through June 30, 2021. For the period from January 1, 2021 through June 30, 2021, the Company ceded $348.4 million of written premiums to FEMA, with $1.1 million ceded to highly rated carriers for excess flood policies which are not within the NFIP.

As of June 30, 2021 the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet contained reinsurance recoverable of $42.4 million and prepaid reinsurance premiums of $368.7 million. There was no change in the net balance in the reserve for losses and loss adjustment expense during the period January 1, 2021 through June 30, 2021, as WNFIC’s direct premiums written were 100% to two reinsurers. The balance of the reserve for losses and loss adjustment expense, excluding related reinsurance recoverable, as of June 30, 2021 was $42.4 million.

WNFIC maintains capital in excess of the minimum statutory amount of $7.5 million as required by regulatory authorities. The unaudited statutory capital and surplus of WNFIC was $34.1 million at June 30, 2021 and $32.6 million as of December 31, 2020. For the period from January 1, 2021 through June 30, 2021, WNFIC generated statutory net income of $0.5 million. For the period from January 1, 2020 through December 31, 2020, WNFIC generated statutory net income of $0.8 million. The maximum amount of ordinary dividends that WNFIC can pay to shareholders in a rolling 12-month period is limited to the greater of 10% of statutory adjusted capital and surplus or 100% of adjusted net income. There was no dividend payout in 2020 and the maximum dividend payout that may be made in 2021 without prior approval is $3.3 million.

ITEM 2 — Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion updates the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, and the two discussions should be read together.

GENERAL

Impact of COVID-19

The coronavirus pandemic (“COVID-19”) remains dynamic with uncertainty around its duration and broader impact. We continue to monitor and assess the situation and will further adapt our business practices over the coming quarters to best serve our customers and protect our employees. While there is optimism resulting from the reopening of the economy and the availability of vaccines, we continue to assess the situation given the risks associated with variant strains of COVID-19.

Company Overview — Second Quarter of 2021

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the related Notes to those Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In addition, please see “Information Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below regarding important information on non-GAAP financial measures contained in our discussion and analysis.

We are a diversified insurance agency, wholesale brokerage, insurance programs and services organization headquartered in Daytona Beach, Florida. As an insurance intermediary, our principal sources of revenue are commissions paid by insurance companies and, to a lesser extent, fees paid directly by customers. Commission revenues generally represent a percentage of the premium paid by an insured and are affected by fluctuations in both premium rate levels charged by insurance companies and the insureds’ underlying “insurable exposure units,” which are units that insurance companies use to measure or express insurance exposed to risk (such as property values, or sales and payroll levels) to determine what premium to charge the insured. Insurance companies establish these premium rates based upon many factors, including loss experience, risk profile and reinsurance rates paid by such insurance companies, none of which we control.

The volume of business from new and existing customers, fluctuations in insurable exposure units, changes in premium rate levels, changes in general economic and competitive conditions, a health pandemic, and the occurrence of catastrophic weather events all affect our revenues. For example, level rates of inflation or a general decline in economic activity could limit increases in the values of insurable exposure units. Conversely, increasing costs of litigation settlements and awards could cause some customers to seek higher levels of insurance coverage. Historically, our revenues have typically grown as a result of our focus on net new business growth and acquisitions. We foster a strong, decentralized sales and service culture with the goal of consistent, sustained growth over the long-term.

The term “Organic Revenue,” a non-GAAP measure, is our core commissions and fees less: (i) the core commissions and fees earned for the first 12 months by newly-acquired operations; (ii) divested business (core commissions and fees generated from offices, books of business or niches sold or terminated during the comparable period); and (iii) the period-over-period impact of foreign currency translation, which is calculated by applying current year foreign exchange rates to the same period in the prior year. The term “core commissions and fees” excludes profit-sharing contingent commissions and guaranteed supplemental commissions, and therefore represents the revenues earned directly from specific insurance policies sold, and specific fee-based services rendered. “Organic Revenue” is reported in this manner in order to express the current year’s core commissions and fees on a comparable basis with the prior year’s core commissions and fees. The resulting net change reflects the aggregate changes attributable to: (i) net new and lost accounts; (ii) net changes in our customers’ exposure units; (iii) net changes in insurance premium rates or the commission rate paid to us by our carrier partners; and (iv) the net change in fees paid to us by our customers. Organic Revenue is reported in “Results of Operations” and in “Results of Operations - Segment Information” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

We also earn profit-sharing contingent commissions, which are commissions based primarily on underwriting results, but which may also reflect considerations for volume, growth and/or retention. These commissions are included in our commissions and fees in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, are accrued throughout the year based on actual premiums written and are primarily received in the first and second quarters of each subsequent year, based upon the aforementioned considerations for the prior year(s). Over the last three years, profit-sharing contingent commissions have averaged approximately 3.0% of commissions and fees revenue.

Certain insurance companies offer guaranteed fixed-base agreements, referred to as “Guaranteed Supplemental Commissions” (“GSCs”) in lieu of profit-sharing contingent commissions. GSCs are accrued throughout the year based on actual premiums written. Over the last three years, GSCs have averaged less than 1.0% of commissions and fees revenue.

Combined, our profit-sharing contingent commissions and GSCs for the three months ended June 30, 2021 were substantially flat compared to the second quarter of 2020, increasing by $0.5 million.

Table of Contents

Fee revenues primarily relate to services other than securing coverage for our customers, as well as fees negotiated in lieu of commissions, and are recognized as performance obligations are satisfied. Fee revenues have historically been generated primarily by: (1) our Services Segment, which provides insurance-related services, including third-party claims administration and comprehensive medical utilization management services in both the workers’ compensation and all-lines liability arenas, as well as Medicare Set-aside services, Social Security disability and Medicare benefits advocacy services, and claims adjusting services; (2) our National Programs and Wholesale Brokerage Segments, which earn fees primarily for the issuance of insurance policies on behalf of insurance companies; and to a lesser extent (3) our Retail Segment in our large-account customer base, where we primarily earn fees for securing insurance for our customers, and in our automobile dealer services (“F&I”) businesses where we primarily earn fees for assisting our customers with creating and selling warranty and service risk management programs. Fee revenues as a percentage of our total commissions and fees, represented 2 6.1% in 20 20 and 27.1% in 201 9.

For the three months ended June 30, 2021, our total commissions and fees growth rate was 21.4%, and our consolidated Organic Revenue growth rate was 14.7%.

Historically, investment income has consisted primarily of interest earnings on operating cash and where permitted, on premiums and advance premiums collected and held in a fiduciary capacity before being remitted to insurance companies. Our policy as it relates to the Company’s capital is to invest available funds in high-quality, short-term fixed income investment securities. Investment income also includes gains and losses realized from the sale of investments. Other income primarily reflects legal settlements and other revenues.

Income before income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2021 increased from the second quarter of 2020 by $56.9 million, primarily as a result of net new business, acquisitions completed in the past 12 months, and management of our expense base.

Information Regarding Non-GAAP Measures

In the discussion and analysis of our results of operations, in addition to reporting financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), we provide references to the following non-GAAP financial measures as defined in Regulation G of SEC rules: Organic Revenue, Organic Revenue growth, EBITDAC and EBITDAC Margin. EBITDAC is defined as income before interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, and the change in estimated acquisition earn-out payables. EBITDAC Margin is defined as EBITDAC divided by total revenues. We view these non-GAAP financial measures as important indicators when assessing and evaluating our performance on a consolidated basis and for each of our segments because they allow us to determine a more comparable, but non-GAAP, measurement of revenue growth and operating performance that is associated with the revenue sources that were a part of our business in both the current and prior year. We believe that Organic Revenue provides a meaningful representation of our operating performance and view Organic Revenue growth as an important indicator when assessing and evaluating the performance of our four segments. Organic Revenue can be expressed as a dollar amount or a percentage rate when describing Organic Revenue growth. We use Organic Revenue growth in determining incentive cash compensation and as a performance measure in our equity incentive grants for our executive officers and other key employees. We use EBITDAC Margin for incentive cash compensation determinations for our executive officers. We view EBITDAC and EBITDAC Margin as important indicators of operating performance, because they allow us to determine more comparable, but non-GAAP, measurements of our operating margins in a meaningful and consistent manner by removing the significant non-cash items of depreciation, amortization and the change in estimated acquisition earn-out payables, and also interest expense and taxes, which are reflective of investment and financing activities, not operating performance.

These measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative to the GAAP information provided in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We present such non-GAAP supplemental financial information because we believe such information is of interest to the investment community and because we believe they provide additional meaningful methods of evaluating certain aspects of the Company’s operating performance from period to period on a basis that may not be otherwise apparent on a GAAP basis. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures improve the comparability of results between periods by eliminating the impact of certain items that have a high degree of variability. 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. This supplemental financial information should be considered in addition to, not in lieu of, our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Tabular reconciliations of this supplemental non-GAAP financial information to our most comparable GAAP information are contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q under “Results of Operations - Segment Information.”

Acquisitions

Part of our continuing business strategy is to attract high-quality insurance intermediaries to join our operations. From 1993 through the second quarter of 2021, we acquired 565 insurance intermediary operations.

Critical Accounting Policies

We have had no changes to our Critical Accounting Policies as described in our most recent Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. We believe that of our significant accounting and reporting policies, the more critical policies include our accounting for revenue recognition, business combinations and purchase price allocations including potential earn-out obligations, intangible asset impairments, non-cash stock-based compensation and reserves for litigation. In particular, the accounting for these areas requires significant use of judgment to be made by management. Different assumptions in the application of these policies could result in material changes in our consolidated financial position or consolidated results of operations. Refer to Note 1 in the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 for details regarding our critical and significant accounting policies.

Commissions and Fees

Commissions and fees, including profit-sharing contingent commissions and GSCs, for the three months ended June 30, 2021 increased $127.8 million to $725.9 million, or 21.4%, over the same period in 2020. Core commissions and fees revenue for the second quarter of 2021 increased $127.2 million, composed of (i) approximately $84.6 million of net new and renewal business, which reflects an Organic Revenue growth rate of 14.7%; (ii) $43.9 million from acquisitions that had no comparable revenues in the same period of 2020; (iii) a positive impact from foreign currency translation of $0.5 million; and (iv) an offsetting decrease of $1.8 million related to commissions and fees revenue from business divested in the preceding twelve months. Profit-sharing contingent commissions and GSCs for the second quarter of 2021 increased by $0.5 million, or 2.4%, compared to the same period in 2020.

Table of Contents

For the six months ended June 30, 2021, commissions and fees, including profit-sharing contingent commissions and GSCs, increased $245.3 million to $1.540.0 million, or 18.9%, over the same period in 2020. Core commissions and fees revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased $241.3 million, composed of: (i) approximately $150.0 million of net new and renewal business, which reflects an Organic Revenue growth rate of 12.1%; (i i) $92.7 million from acquisitions that had no comparable revenues in the same period of 2020; (iii) a positive impact from foreign currency translation of $0.7 million and (i v) an offsetting decrease of $2.1 million related to commissions and fees revenue from businesses divested in the preceding 12 months. Profit-sharing contingent commissions and GSCs for the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased by $4.0 million, or 7.8%, compared to the same period in 20 20.

Investment Income

Investment income for the three months ended June 30, 2021 decreased $0.1 million, or 31.2%, from the same period in 2020. Investment income for the six months ended June 30, 2021 decreased $1.0 million, or 68.0%, from the same period in 2020. These decreases were primarily driven by lower interest rates as compared to the prior year.

Other Revenues

Other revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2021 was $1.2 million, compared with $0.3 million in the same period in 2020. Other income for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $2.2 million, compared with $1.1 million in the same period in 2020. Other income consists primarily of legal settlements and other miscellaneous income.

Employee Compensation and Benefits

Employee compensation and benefits expense as a percentage of total revenues was 54.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to 57.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2020, and increased 14.2%, or $49.1 million. This increase included $15.7 million of compensation costs related to stand-alone acquisitions that had no comparable costs in the same period of 2020. Therefore, employee compensation and benefits expense attributable to those offices that existed in the same time periods of 2021 and 2020 increased by $33.4 million or 9.7%. This underlying employee compensation and benefits expense increase was primarily related to: (i) an increase in accrued performance bonuses; (ii) an increase in staff salaries attributable to salary inflation; (iii) an increase in producer compensation associated with revenue growth; and partially offset by (iv) a decrease in non-cash stock-based compensation expense.

Employee compensation and benefits expense as a percentage of total revenues was 53.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to 53.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2020, and increased 18.5%, or $129.0 million. This increase included $37.8 million of compensation costs related to stand-alone acquisitions that had no comparable costs in the same period of 2020. Therefore, employee compensation and benefits expense attributable to those offices that existed in the same time periods of 2021 and 2020 increased by $91.2 million or 13.2%. This underlying employee compensation and benefits expense increase was primarily related to: (i) the increase in the value of deferred compensation liabilities, which was offset within other operating expenses, driven by changes in the market prices of our employees' investment elections due to rising asset values for the investments we have made to fund these liabilities; (ii) an increase in staff salaries attributable to salary inflation; (iii) increased producer compensation due to higher revenue; and (iv) higher accrued performance bonuses.

Other Operating Expenses

Other operating expenses represented 13.2% of total revenues for the second quarter of 2021 as compared to 12.6% for the second quarter of 2020. Other operating expenses for the second quarter of 2021 increased $20.7 million, or 27.4%, from the same period of 2020. The net increase included: (i) $10.1 million of other operating expenses related to stand-alone acquisitions that had no comparable costs in the same period of 2020; (ii) a smaller credit from the increase in the value of company-owned life insurance policies associated with our deferred compensation plan as compared to the second quarter of 2020; and (iii) increased variable expenses with increased travel and entertainment being the largest driver. The change in value of company-owned life insurance is largely offset with a corresponding opposite impact on compensation expense.

Other operating expenses represented 12.4% of total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to 14.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2020. Other operating expenses for the first six months of 2021 increased $7.9 million, or 4.3%, from the same period of 2020. The net increase included: (i) $22.0 million of other operating expenses related to stand-alone acquisitions that had no comparable costs in the same period of 2020; partially offset by (ii) lower variable operating expenses, including travel and entertainment and meeting-related expenses, primarily resulting from responses to COVID-19; and (iii) the increase in the value of company-owned life insurance policies associated with our deferred compensation plan, which was substantially offset by increases in the value of liabilities in the Company’s deferred compensation plan recognized as expense in employee compensation and benefits.

(Gain)/Loss on Disposal

Gain on disposal for the second quarter of 2021 increased $3.8 million from the second quarter of 2020. Gain on disposal for the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased $3.8 million from the six months ended June 30, 2020. The changes in the (gain)/loss on disposal were due to activity associated with book of business sales. Although we are not in the business of selling customer accounts, we periodically sell an office or a book of business (one or more customer accounts) that we believe does not produce reasonable margins or demonstrate a potential for growth, or because doing so is in the Company’s best interest.

Amortization

Amortization expense for the second quarter of 2021 increased $2.8 million, or 10.5%, compared to the second quarter of 2020. Amortization expense for the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased $5.9 million, or 11.1%, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020. These increases reflect the amortization of new intangibles from businesses acquired within the past 12 months, partially offset by certain intangible assets becoming fully amortized.

Depreciation

Depreciation expense for the second quarter of 2021 increased $2.6 million, or 42.7%, compared to the second quarter of 2020. Depreciation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased $4.1 million, or 33.4%, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020. Changes in depreciation expense reflect the addition of fixed assets resulting from business initiatives, and net additions of fixed assets resulting from businesses acquired in the past 12 months, which were partially offset by fixed assets that became fully depreciated.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the second quarter of 2021 increased $2.5 million, or 17.9%, compared to the second quarter of 2020. Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased $3.5 million, or 12.1%, compared to the first six months of 2020. These increases were due to higher average debt balances from increased borrowings associated with the issuance of bonds in September 2020, partially offset by the decrease in interest rates associated with our floating rate debt balances.

Change in Estimated Acquisition Earn-Out Payables

Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805-Business Combinations is the authoritative guidance requiring an acquirer to recognize 100% of the fair value of acquired assets, including goodwill, and assumed liabilities (with only limited exceptions) upon initially obtaining control of an acquired entity. Additionally, the fair value of contingent consideration arrangements (such as earn-out purchase price arrangements) at the acquisition date must be included in the purchase price consideration. The recorded purchase price for acquisitions includes an estimation of the fair value of liabilities associated with any potential earn-out provisions. Subsequent changes in these earn-out obligations are required to be recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income when incurred or reasonably estimated. Estimations of potential earn-out obligations are typically based upon future earnings of the acquired operations or entities, usually for periods ranging from one to three years.

The net charge or credit to the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for the period is the combination of the net change in the estimated acquisition earn-out payables balance, and the interest expense imputed on the outstanding balance of the estimated acquisition earn-out payables.

As of June 30, 2021 and 2020, the fair values of the estimated acquisition earn-out payables were re-evaluated based upon projected operating results and measured at fair value on a recurring basis using unobservable inputs (Level 3) as defined in ASC 820-Fair Value Measurement. The resulting net changes, as well as the interest expense accretion on the estimated acquisition earn-out payables, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 were as follows:

|  | Three months ended June 30, |  |  | Six months ended June 30, |
(in thousands) |  | 2021 |  |  | 2020 |  |  | 2021 |  |  | 2020 |
Change in fair value of estimated acquisition earn-out payables |  | $ | (3,326 | ) |  | $ | (1,308 | ) |  | $ | (6,040 | ) |  | $ | (13,949 | )
Interest expense accretion |  |  | 1,722 |  |  |  | 1,943 |  |  |  | 3,545 |  |  |  | 3,627 |
Net change in earnings from estimated acquisition earn-out payables |  | $ | (1,604 | ) |  | $ | 635 |  |  | $ | (2,495 | ) |  | $ | (10,322 | )

For the three months and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the fair value of estimated earn-out payables was re-evaluated and decreased by $3.3 million and $6.0 million, respectively, which resulted in credits to the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, respectively.

As of June 30, 2021, estimated acquisition earn-out payables totaled $242.0 million, of which $88.8 million was recorded as accounts payable and $153.2 million was recorded as other non-current liabilities.

Income Taxes

The effective tax rate on income from operations for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was 25.2%. The effective tax rate on income from operations for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was 20.3% and 25.5%, respectively. The decrease for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was driven primarily by the tax benefit associated with incremental vesting of restricted stock awards in the first six months of 2021 as compared to the first six months of 2020. In 2016, we began issuing the majority of our restricted stock awards in the first quarter of each year, and the vesting of such awards is generally tied to the fifth anniversary of the date of grant, subject to certain exceptions.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS — SEGMENT INFORMATION

As discussed in Note 12 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, we operate four reportable segments: Retail, National Programs, Wholesale Brokerage, and Services. On a segmented basis, changes in amortization, depreciation and interest expenses generally result from activity associated with acquisitions. Likewise, other revenues in each segment reflects net gains primarily from legal settlements and miscellaneous income. As such, in evaluating the operational efficiency of a segment, management focuses on the Organic Revenue growth rate and EBITDAC Margin.

Retail Segment

The Retail Segment provides a broad range of insurance products and services to commercial, public and quasi-public, professional and individual insured customers, and non-insurance risk-mitigating products through our automobile dealer services (“F&I”) businesses. Approximately 78.8% of the Retail Segment’s commissions and fees revenue is commission based. Because most of our other operating expenses are not correlated to changes in commissions on insurance premiums, a significant portion of any fluctuation in the commissions we receive, net of related producer compensation and cost to fulfill expense deferrals and releases as required by ASC 340, Other Assets and Deferred Costs, will result in a similar fluctuation in our income before income taxes, unless we make incremental investments or modifications to the costs in the organization.

The Retail Segment’s total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2021 increased 28.3%, or $88.5 million, as compared to the same period in 2020, to $400.1 million. The $87.3 million increase in core commissions and fees revenue was driven by: (i) approximately $36.1 million related to the core commissions and fees revenue from acquisitions that had no comparable revenues in the same period of 2020; (ii) an increase of $53.0 million related to net new and renewal business; offset by (iii) a decrease of $1.8 million related to commissions and fees recorded in 2020 from businesses since divested. Profit-sharing contingent commissions and GSCs for the second quarter of 2021 increased 13.5%, or $1.4 million, as compared to the same period in 2020, to $11.7 million. The Retail Segment’s total commissions and fees increased by 28.4%, and the Organic Revenue growth rate was 17.6% for the second quarter of 2021. The Organic Revenue growth rate was driven by revenue from net new business, which was impacted by an improvement in exposure units, and rate increases in most lines of business with the most pronounced being the continued increases in commercial auto, property and personal liability, partially offset by continued premium rate reductions in workers’ compensation. Organic Revenue growth was realized across all lines of business.

Income before income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2021 increased 91.4%, or $33.7 million, as compared to the same period in 2020, to $70.5 million. The primary factors affecting this increase were: (i) the profit associated with the net increase in revenue as described above; (ii) the drivers of EBITDAC described below; and (iii) intercompany interest and amortization expenses growing slower than EBITDAC.

National Programs Segment

The National Programs Segment manages over 40 programs supported by approximately 100 well-capitalized carrier partners. In most cases, the insurance carriers that support these programs have delegated underwriting and, in many instances, claims-handling authority to our programs operations. These programs are generally distributed through a nationwide network of independent agents and Brown & Brown retail agents, and offer targeted products and services designed for specific industries, trade groups, professions, public entities and market niches. The National Programs Segment operations can be grouped into five broad categories: Professional Programs, Personal Lines Programs, Commercial Programs, Public Entity-Related Programs and the National Flood Program. The National Programs Segment’s revenue is primarily commission based.

The $16.4 million net increase in core commissions and fees revenue was driven primarily by: (i) $5.9 million related to the core commissions and fees revenue from acquisitions that had no comparable revenues in the same period of 2020; and (ii) $10.5 million related to net new and renewal business. Profit-sharing contingent commissions and GSCs for the second quarter of 2021 decreased $0.7 million compared to the second quarter of 2020. The Wholesale Brokerage Segment’s growth rate for total commissions and fees was 17.7%, and the Organic Revenue growth rate was 12.3% for the second quarter of 2021. The Organic Revenue growth rate was driven by improving new business and rate increases for most lines of coverage.

Income before income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2021 increased 6.8%, or $1.7 million, as compared to the same period in 2020, to $26.4 million. The increase was due to: (i) the strong revenue growth noted above; and (ii) the drivers of EBITDAC described below; which were partially offset by higher intercompany interest charges associated with acquisitions completed in the past 12 months.

EBITDAC for the three months ended June 30, 2021 increased 18.7%, or $5.6 million, as compared to the same period in 2020, to $35.5 million. EBITDAC Margin for the three months ended June 30, 2021 increased to 34.0% from 33.7%, as compared to the same period in 2020. EBITDAC Margin grew due to: (i) higher Organic Revenue growth and leveraging our expense base; and (ii) cost savings delivered in response to COVID-19.

The Wholesale Brokerage Segment’s total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased 1 7.4%, or $2 8.9 million, as compared to the same period in 2020, to $195.5 million. The $30.0 million net increase in core commissions and fees revenue was driven primarily by: (i) $1 4.3 million related to core commissions and fees revenue from acquisitions that had no comparable revenues in the same period of 2020; and (ii) $1 5.7 million related to net new and renewal business. Profit-sharing contingent commissions and GSCs for the first six months of 202 1 decreased approximately $1.1 million compared to the same period of 20 20. The Wholesale Brokerage Segment’s growth rate for total commissions and fees was 1 7.4%, and the Organic Revenue growth rate was 9.7% for the first six months of 202 1. The Organic Revenue growth rate was driven by: (i) rate increases for most lines of coverage; and (ii) net new business and exposure unit expansion during the first quarter and second quarter of 2021.

Income before income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased 6.6%, or $2.8 million, as compared to the same period in 2020, to $45.2 million. The increase was due to: (i) strong Organic Revenue growth; and (ii) the drivers of EBITDAC described below; which were partially offset by (iii) higher intercompany interest charges associated with acquisitions completed over the past 12 months.

EBITDAC for the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased 19.6%, or $10.1 million, as compared to the same period in 2020, to $61.8 million. EBITDAC Margin for the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased to 31.6% from 31.0% in the same period in 2020. The increase in EBITDAC was due to: (i) the profit of newly acquired businesses; (ii) slightly higher profit-sharing contingent commissions and GSCs; (iii) leveraging our expense base; and (iv) cost savings delivered in response to COVID-19, which helped to partially offset higher intercompany technology charges and non-cash stock-based compensation costs.

Services Segment

The Services Segment provides insurance-related services, including third-party claims administration and comprehensive medical utilization management services in both the workers’ compensation and all-lines liability arenas. The Services Segment also provides Medicare Set-aside account services, Social Security disability and Medicare benefits advocacy services, and claims adjusting services.

Unlike the other segments, nearly all of the Services Segment’s revenue is generated from fees, which are not significantly affected by fluctuations in general insurance premiums.

Financial information relating to our Services Segment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 is as follows:

The Services Segment’s total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2021 increased 4.6%, or $2.0 million, as compared to the same period in 2020, to $44.9 million. The Services Segment’s total commissions and fees and Organic Revenue growth rate was 4.6% for the second quarter of 2021 driven by: (i) COVID-19 travel restricted claims; and (ii) specialized claims handling in our advocacy business; and (iii) which were partially offset by lower award rates in our Social Security disability advocacy services.

Income before income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2021 increased 19.1%, or $1.2 million, as compared to the same period in 2020, to $7.7 million. Income before income taxes increased faster than EBITDAC due to lower intercompany interest expense and amortization.

EBITDAC for the three months ended June 30, 2021 increased 9.2%, or $0.8 million, from the same period in 2020, to $10.1 million. EBITDAC Margin for the three months ended June 30, 2021 increased to 22.4% from 21.5% in the same period in 2020. The increases in EBITDAC and EBITDAC Margin were driven primarily by leveraging our expense base with higher Organic Revenue growth.

The Services Segment’s total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased 5.1%, or $4.5 million from the same period in 2020, to $91.9 million. The Services Segment’s total commissions and fees and Organic Revenue growth rate was 5.1% for the first six months of 2020. The increase in Organic Revenue was caused primarily by: (i) travel restricted claims due to COVID-19; (ii) specialized claims handling in our advocacy business; and (iii) weather related claim activity.

Table of Contents

Income before income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased 2.5%, or $0.4 million, from the same period in 2020, to $16.9 million. The increase was driven by: (i) a lower change in estimated acquisition earn-out payables as compared to the prior year; (ii) lower intercompany interest expense; and (iii) the drivers of EBITDAC described below.

EBITDAC for the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased 15.0%, or $2.9 million, from the same period in 2020, to $21.9 million. EBITDAC Margin for the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased to 23.9% from 21.8% in the same period in 2020. The increase in EBITDAC and EBITDAC Margin were driven primarily by leveraging our expense base with higher Organic Revenue growth and lower variable expenses in response to COVID-19.

Other

As discussed in Note 12 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, the “Other” column in the Segment Information table includes any revenue and expenses not allocated to reportable segments, and corporate-related items, including the intercompany interest expense charges to reporting segments.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company seeks to maintain a conservative balance sheet and strong liquidity profile. Our capital requirements to operate as an insurance intermediary are low and we have been able to grow and invest in our business principally through cash that has been generated from operations. We have the ability to utilize our Revolving Credit Facility, which as of June 30, 2021 provided up to $800.0 million in available cash. We believe that we have access to additional funds, if needed, through the capital markets or private placements to obtain further debt financing under the current market conditions. The Company believes that its existing cash, cash equivalents, short-term investment portfolio and funds generated from operations, together with the funds available under the Revolving Credit Facility, will be sufficient to satisfy our normal liquidity needs, including principal payments on our long-term debt, for at least the next 12 months.

The Revolving Credit Facility contains an expansion option for up to an additional $500.0 million of borrowing capacity, subject to the approval of participating lenders. In addition, under the Term Loan Credit Agreement, the unsecured term loan in the initial amount of $300.0 million may be increased by up to $150.0 million, subject to the approval of participating lenders. Including the expansion options under all existing credit agreements, the Company has access to up to $1.5 billion of incremental borrowing capacity as of June 30, 2021.

Contractual Cash Obligations

Debt

Total debt at June 30, 2021 was $2,062.3 million net of unamortized discount and debt issuance costs, which was a decrease of $33.6 million compared to December 31, 2020. The decrease includes: (i) the repayment of the principal balance of $35.0 million for scheduled principal amortization balances related to our various existing floating rate debt term notes; (ii) net of the amortization of discounted debt related to our various unsecured Senior Notes, and debt issuance cost amortization of $1.4 million.

During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company repaid $20.0 million of principal related to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement term loan through the quarterly scheduled amortized principal payments. The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement term loan had an outstanding balance of $270.0 million as of June 30, 2021. The Company’s next scheduled amortized principal payment is due September 30, 2021 and is equal to $10.0 million. As of June 28, 2021, the term loan balance has been moved to current portion of long-term debt as the agreement and underlying debt instruments are in within one-year of maturity. The Company is evaluating refinancing options as it intends to refinance and extend the maturity of the agreement.

During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company repaid $15.0 million of principal related to the Term Loan Credit Agreement through quarterly scheduled amortized principal payments. The Term Loan Credit Agreement had an outstanding balance of $255.0 million as of June 30, 2021. The Company’s next scheduled amortized principal payment is due September 30, 2021 and is equal to $7.5 million.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Neither we nor our subsidiaries have ever incurred off-balance sheet obligations through the use of, or investment in, off-balance sheet derivative financial instruments or structured finance or special purpose entities organized as corporations, partnerships or limited liability companies or trusts.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Market risk is the potential loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates and equity prices. We are exposed to market risk through our investments, revolving credit line, term loan agreements and international operations.

Our invested assets are held primarily as cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, available-for-sale marketable debt securities, non-marketable debt securities, certificates of deposit, U.S. treasury securities, and professionally managed short duration fixed income funds. These investments are subject to interest rate risk. The fair values of our invested assets at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, approximated their respective carrying values due to their short-term duration and therefore, such market risk is not considered to be material.

We do not actively invest or trade in equity securities. In addition, we generally dispose of any significant equity securities received in conjunction with an acquisition shortly after the acquisition date.

As of June 30, 2021, we had $525.0 million of borrowings outstanding under our various credit agreements, all of which bear interest on a floating basis tied to the Overnight London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) and are therefore subject to changes in the associated interest expense. The effect of an immediate hypothetical 10% change in interest rates would not have a material effect on our Consolidated Financial Statements. As of July 2017, the UK Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”) has urged banks and institutions to discontinue their use of the LIBOR benchmark rate for floating rate debt, and other financial instruments tied to the rate after 2021. However, on November 30, 2020, the ICE Benchmark Administration Limited (“IBA”), announced that it would consult in early December 2020 on its intention to cease the publication of the one-week and two-month U.S. dollar LIBOR settings immediately following the LIBOR publication on December 31, 2021, and the remaining U.S. dollar LIBOR settings (overnight and one, three, six and 12 months) immediately following the LIBOR publication on June 30, 2023. In connection to the released statement from the IBA, on December 4, 2020, the FCA released a similar statement in support of the continuation of the LIBOR rate beyond 2021. The Alternative Reference Rates Committee (“ARRC”) have recommended the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) as the best alternative rate to LIBOR post discontinuance and has proposed a transition plan and timeline designed to encourage the adoption of SOFR from LIBOR. Post consultation on March 5, 2021, IBA confirmed its proposed dates to stop publishing USD LIBOR on a representative basis.

The Company is currently evaluating the transition from LIBOR as an interest rate benchmark to other potential alternative reference rates, including but not limited to the SOFR interest rate. Management will continue to actively assess the related opportunities and risks associated with the transition and monitor related proposals and guidance published by ARRC and other alternative-rate initiatives, with an expectation that the Company will be prepared for a termination of LIBOR benchmarks after 2021.

We are subject to exchange rate risk primarily in our U.K.-based wholesale brokerage business that has a cost base principally denominated in British pounds and a revenue base in several other currencies, but principally in U.S. dollars, and in our Canadian MGA business that has substantially all of its revenues and cost base denominated in Canadian Dollars, and in our Ireland-based retail brokerage business which has substantially all of its revenue and cost base in Euros.

Based upon our foreign currency rate exposure as of June 30, 2021, an immediate 10% hypothetical change of foreign currency exchange rates would not have a material effect on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We carried out an evaluation (the “Evaluation”) required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act (“Disclosure Controls”) as of June 30, 2021. Based upon the Evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that the design and operation of our Disclosure Controls were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our senior management, including our CEO and CFO, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Changes in Internal Controls

There has not been any change in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the Evaluation that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2021, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Inherent Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management, including our CEO and CFO, does not expect that our Disclosure Controls and internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control.

42

Table of Contents

The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, a control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

CEO and CFO Certifications

Exhibits 31.1 and 31.2 are the Certifications of the CEO and the CFO, respectively. The Certifications are supplied in accordance with Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Section 302 Certifications”). This Item 4 of Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains the information concerning the evaluation referred to in the Section 302 Certifications and this information should be read in conjunction with the Section 302 Certifications for a more complete understanding of the topics presented.

PART II

ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings

In Item 3 of Part I of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, certain information concerning litigation claims arising in the ordinary course of business was disclosed. Such information was current as of the date of filing. During the Company’s fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2021, no new legal proceedings, or material developments with respect to existing legal proceedings, occurred which require disclosure in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

ITEM 1A. Risk Factors

There were no material changes in the risk factors previously disclosed in Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.
