(unaudited)
NOTE 1—BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Open Text Corporation and our subsidiaries, collectively referred to as “OpenText” or the “Company”. We wholly own all of our subsidiaries with the exception of Open Text South Africa Proprietary Ltd. (OT South Africa), which as of March 31, 2022, was 70% owned by OpenText. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Previously, our ownership in EC1 Pte. Ltd. (GXS Singapore) was 81%. During the first quarter of Fiscal 2022 (as defined below), we made a final cash distribution of $0.4 million to the non-controlling interest holder in GXS Singapore as part of the process to liquidate the subsidiary. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the liquidation of GXS Singapore was completed.

These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are expressed in U.S. dollars and are prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP). The information furnished reflects all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods presented.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. These estimates, judgments and assumptions are evaluated on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable at that time, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from those estimates. In particular, key estimates, judgments and assumptions include those related to: (i) revenue recognition, (ii) accounting for income taxes, (iii) testing of goodwill for impairment, (iv) the valuation of acquired intangible assets, (v) the valuation of long-lived assets, (vi) the recognition of contingencies, (vii) restructuring accruals, (viii) acquisition accruals and pre-acquisition contingencies, (ix) the valuation of stock options granted and obligations related to share-based payments, including the valuation of our long-term incentive plans, and (x) the valuation of pension obligations.
In March 2020, COVID-19 was characterized as a pandemic by the World Health Organization. The spread of COVID-19 continues to impact the global economy. As the impacts of the pandemic continue to evolve, estimates and assumptions about future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty and therefore require increased judgment. As of March 31, 2022, we have recorded certain estimates resulting from the pandemic, particularly with respect to the COVID-19 Restructuring Plan (as defined herein) and allowance for credit losses, based on management's estimates and assumptions utilizing the most currently available information. Such estimates may be subject to change particularly given the unprecedented nature of the COVID-19 pandemic. We will continue to monitor the potential impact of COVID-19 on our financial statements and related disclosures, including the need for additional estimates going forward, which could include costs related to potential items such as special charges (recoveries), restructurings, asset impairments and other non-recurring costs. Please see note 18 “Special Charges (Recoveries)” and “Risk Factors” included within Part II, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for Fiscal 2021.

NOTE 2—RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Accounting Pronouncements Adopted in Fiscal 2022
During Fiscal 2022, we have adopted the following Accounting Standards Update (ASU) that did not have a material impact to our reported financial position, results of operations or cash flows:
•ASU 2019-12 “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes”
Business Combinations
In October 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2021-08 “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers.” This standard requires contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination to be recognized and measured as if the acquirer had originated the original contract in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 606. Previously, contract assets and contract liabilities were measured at fair value.
The standard is effective for us in our fiscal year ending June 30, 2024, with early adoption permitted. We elected to early adopt the ASU during our second quarter of Fiscal 2022. Early adoption required retrospective adoption to business combinations completed on or after July 1, 2021 and prospective adoption to business combinations occurring on or after the date of adoption. There was no retrospective impact of early adoption as we did not have acquisitions during our first quarter of Fiscal 2022. Acquisitions disclosed in note 19 “Acquisitions” are in accordance with ASU 2021-08. The adoption will not have a material impact to our reported financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Contract Balances
A contract asset, net of allowance for credit losses, will be recorded if we have recognized revenue but do not have an unconditional right to the related consideration from the customer. For example, this will be the case if implementation services offered in a cloud arrangement are identified as a separate performance obligation and are provided to a customer prior to us being able to bill the customer. In addition, a contract asset may arise in relation to subscription licenses if the license revenue that is recognized upfront exceeds the amount that we are able to invoice the customer at that time. Contract assets are reclassified to accounts receivable when the rights become unconditional.
The balance for our contract assets and contract liabilities (i.e. deferred revenues) for the periods indicated below were as follows:

| As of March 31, 2022 |  | As of June 30, 2021
Short-term contract assets | $ | 25,481 |  |  | $ | 25,344 |
Long-term contract assets | $ | 20,049 |  |  | $ | 19,222 |
Short-term deferred revenues | $ | 936,750 |  |  | $ | 852,629 |
Long-term deferred revenues | $ | 90,736 |  |  | $ | 98,989 |

The difference in the opening and closing balances of our contract assets and deferred revenues primarily results from the timing difference between our performance and the customer’s payments. We fulfill our obligations under a contract with a customer by transferring products and services in exchange for consideration from the customer. During the nine months ended March 31, 2022, we reclassified $26.6 million of contract assets to receivables as a result of the right to the transaction consideration becoming unconditional. During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, there was no significant impairment loss recognized related to contract assets.
We recognize deferred revenue when we have received consideration or an amount of consideration is due from the customer for future obligations to transfer products or services. Our deferred revenues primarily relate to cloud services and customer support agreements which have been paid for by customers prior to the performance of those services. The amount of revenue that was recognized during the nine months ended March 31, 2022 that was included in the deferred revenue balances at June 30, 2021 was $775 million (nine months ended March 31, 2021—$737 million).
Incremental Costs of Obtaining a Contract with a Customer
Incremental costs of obtaining a contract include only those costs that we incur to obtain a contract that we would not have incurred if the contract had not been obtained, such as sales commissions. The following table summarizes the changes in total capitalized costs to obtain a contract, since June 30, 2021:

Capitalized costs to obtain a contract as of June 30, 2021 | $ | 72,900 |
New capitalized costs incurred | 27,324 |
Amortization of capitalized costs | (18,903) |
Impact of foreign exchange rate changes | (2,312) |
Capitalized costs to obtain a contract as of March 31, 2022 | $ | 79,009 |

During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, there was no significant impairment loss recognized related to capitalized costs to obtain a contract. Refer to note 9 “Prepaid Expenses and Other Assets” for additional information on incremental costs of obtaining a contract.
Transaction Price Allocated to the Remaining Performance Obligations
As of March 31, 2022, approximately $1.5 billion of revenue is expected to be recognized from remaining performance obligations on existing contracts. We expect to recognize approximately 46% of this amount over the next 12 months and the remaining balance substantially over the next three years thereafter. We apply the practical expedient and do not disclose performance obligations that have original expected durations of one year or less.

NOTE 6—LEASES
We enter into operating leases, both domestically and internationally, for certain facilities, automobiles, data centers and equipment for use in the ordinary course of business. The duration of the majority of these leases generally ranges from 1 to 10 years, some of which include options to extend for an additional 3 to 5 years after the initial term. Additionally, the land upon which our headquarters in Waterloo, Ontario, Canada is located is leased from the University of Waterloo for a period of 49 years beginning in December 2005, with an option to renew for an additional term of 49 years. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and we do not have any material finance leases.

Investments relate to certain investment funds in which we are a limited partner. Our interests in each of these investees range from 4% to below 20%. These investments are accounted for using the equity method. Our share of net income or losses based on our interest in these investments, which approximates fair value and subject to volatility based on market trends and business conditions, is recorded as a component of Other income (expense), net in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income (see note 22 “Other Income (Expense), Net”).
During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022, our share of income (loss) from these investments was $27.7 million and $59.1 million, respectively (three and nine months ended March 31, 2021—$11.8 million and $20.0 million, respectively).

Term Loan B
On May 30, 2018, we refinanced our existing term loan facility, by entering into a new $1 billion term loan facility (Term Loan B), whereby we borrowed $1 billion on that day and repaid in full the loans under our prior $800 million term loan facility originally entered into on January 16, 2014. Borrowings under Term Loan B are secured by a first charge over substantially all of our assets on a pari passu basis with the Revolver (defined below).
Term Loan B has a seven year term, maturing in May 2025, and repayments made under Term Loan B are equal to 0.25% of the principal amount in equal quarterly installments for the life of Term Loan B, with the remainder due at maturity. Borrowings under Term Loan B currently bear a floating rate of interest equal to 1.75% plus LIBOR. As of March 31, 2022, the outstanding balance on the Term Loan B bears an interest rate of 1.96%. For more information regarding the impact of LIBOR, see “Stress in the global financial system may adversely affect our finances and operations in ways that may be hard to predict or to defend against” included within Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for Fiscal 2021.
Under Term Loan B, we must maintain a “consolidated net leverage” ratio of no more than 4:1 at the end of each financial quarter. Consolidated net leverage ratio is defined for this purpose as the proportion of our total debt reduced by unrestricted cash, including guarantees and letters of credit, over our trailing twelve months net income before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, restructuring, share-based compensation and other miscellaneous charges. As of March 31, 2022, our consolidated net leverage ratio was 1.9:1.
For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022, we recorded interest expense of $4.5 million and $13.6 million, respectively, relating to Term Loan B (three and nine months ended March 31, 2021—$4.6 million and $14.1 million, respectively).
Revolver
On October 31, 2019, we amended our committed revolving credit facility (the Revolver) to increase the total commitments under the Revolver from $450 million to $750 million as well as to extend the maturity from May 5, 2022 to October 31, 2024. Borrowings under the Revolver are secured by a first charge over substantially all of our assets, on a pari passu basis with Term Loan B. The Revolver has no fixed repayment date prior to the end of the term. Borrowings under the Revolver bear interest per annum at a floating rate of LIBOR plus a fixed margin dependent on our consolidated net leverage ratio ranging from 1.25% to 1.75%. For more information regarding the impact of LIBOR, see “Stress in the global financial system may adversely affect our finances and operations in ways that may be hard to predict or to defend against” included within Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for Fiscal 2021.
As of March 31, 2022, we had no outstanding balance under the Revolver (June 30, 2021—nil). For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022 we did not record any interest expense relating to the Revolver (three and nine months ended March 31, 2021—nil and $3.6 million, respectively, relating to amounts previously drawn).
Debt Issuance Costs and Premium on Senior Notes
Debt issuance costs relate primarily to costs incurred for the purpose of obtaining our credit facilities and issuing our Senior Notes 2026, Senior Notes 2028, Senior Notes 2029, Senior Notes 2030 and Senior Notes 2031 (collectively referred to as the Senior Notes) and are being amortized through interest expense over the respective terms of the Senior Notes and Term Loan B and the Revolver using the effective interest method.
The premium on Senior Notes 2026 represented the excess of the proceeds received over the face value of Senior Notes 2026. This premium was amortized as a reduction to interest expense over the term of Senior Notes 2026 using the effective interest method. The unamortized debt issuance costs and unamortized premium on Senior Notes 2026 were included in the loss on debt extinguishment recognized during our second quarter of Fiscal 2022. See note 22 “Other Income (Expense), Net”.

Defined Benefit Plans
CDT Plan
CDT sponsors an unfunded defined benefit pension plan covering substantially all CDT employees (CDT plan) which provides for old age, disability and survivors’ benefits. Benefits under the CDT plan are generally based on age at retirement, years of service and the employee’s annual earnings. The net periodic cost of this pension plan is determined using the projected unit credit method and several actuarial assumptions, the most significant of which are the discount rate and estimated service costs. No contributions have been made since the inception of the plan.
GXS GER Plan
As part of our acquisition of GXS Group, Inc. (GXS) in Fiscal 2014, we assumed an unfunded defined benefit pension plan covering certain German employees which provides for old age, disability and survivors' benefits. The GXS GER plan has been closed to new participants since 2006. Benefits under the GXS GER plan are generally based on a participant’s remuneration, date of hire, years of eligible service and age at retirement. The net periodic cost of this pension plan is determined using the projected unit credit method and several actuarial assumptions, the most significant of which are the discount rate and estimated service costs. No contributions have been made since the inception of the plan.
GXS PHP Plan
As part of our acquisition of GXS in Fiscal 2014, we assumed a primarily unfunded defined benefit pension plan covering substantially all of the GXS Philippines employees which provides for retirement, disability and survivors' benefits. Benefits under the GXS PHP plan are generally based on a participant’s remuneration, years of eligible service and age at retirement. The net periodic cost of this pension plan is determined using the projected unit credit method and several actuarial assumptions, the most significant of which are the discount rate and estimated service costs. Aside from an initial contribution which has a fair value of $0.03 million as of March 31, 2022, no additional contributions have been made since the inception of the plan.

Summary of Outstanding Stock Options
As of March 31, 2022, an aggregate of 9,009,585 options to purchase Common Shares were outstanding and an additional 9,450,921 options to purchase Common Shares were available for issuance under our stock option plans. Our stock options generally vest over four years and expire between seven and ten years from the date of the grant. Currently we also have options outstanding that vest over five years, as well as options outstanding that vest based on meeting certain market conditions. The exercise price of all our options is set at an amount that is not less than the closing price of our Common Shares on the NASDAQ on the trading day immediately preceding the applicable grant date.

A summary of activity under our stock option plans for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 is as follows:

| Options |  | Weighted- Average Exercise Price |  | Weighted- Average Remaining Contractual Term (years) |  | Aggregate Intrinsic Value ($’000's)
Outstanding at June 30, 2021 | 8,113,574 |  |  | $ | 40.16 |  |  | 4.88 |  | $ | 86,297 |
Granted | 2,427,510 |  |  | 48.69 |  |  |  |  |

We estimate the fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model or, where appropriate, the Monte Carlo pricing model, consistent with the provisions of ASC Topic 718, “Compensation—Stock Compensation” (Topic 718) and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107. The option-pricing models require input of subjective assumptions, including the estimated life of the option and the expected volatility of the underlying stock over the estimated life of the option. We use historical volatility as a basis for projecting the expected volatility of the underlying stock and estimate the expected life of our stock options based upon historical data.
We believe that the valuation techniques and the approach utilized to develop the underlying assumptions are appropriate in calculating the fair value of our stock option grants. Estimates of fair value are not intended, however, to predict actual future events or the value ultimately realized by employees who receive equity awards.
For the periods indicated, the weighted-average fair value of options and weighted-average assumptions estimated under the Black-Scholes option-pricing model were as follows:

| Three Months Ended March 31, |  | Nine Months Ended March 31,
| 2022 |  | 2021 |  | 2022 |  | 2021
Weighted–average fair value of options granted | $ | 8.31 |  |  | $ | 8.86 |  |  | $ | 9.08 |  |  | $ | 8.41 |
Weighted-average assumptions used: |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Expected volatility | 26.06 | % |  | 26.59 | % |  | 26.37 | % |  | 26.20 | %
Risk–free interest rate | 1.54 | % |  | 0.32 | % |  | 1.06 | % |  | 0.21 | %
Expected dividend yield | 1.94 | % |  | 1.54 | % |  | 1.75 | % |  | 1.54 | %
Expected life (in years) | 4.14 |  | 4.14 |  | 4.15 |  | 4.63
Forfeiture rate (based on historical rates) | 7 | % |  | 7 | % |  | 7 | % |  | 7 | %
Average exercise share price | $ | 44.45 |  |  | $ | 48.74 |  |  | $ | 48.69 |  |  | $ | 45.57 |

As of March 31, 2022, the total compensation cost related to the unvested stock option awards not yet recognized was $44.2 million, which will be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.9 years.
No cash was used by us to settle equity instruments granted under share-based compensation arrangements in any of the periods presented.
We have not capitalized any share-based compensation costs as part of the cost of an asset in any of the periods presented.
The aggregate intrinsic value of options exercised during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022 was $0.4 million and $16.7 million, respectively (three and nine months ended March 31, 2021—$2.1 million and $9.8 million, respectively).
For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022, cash in the amount of $1.9 million and $31.1 million, respectively, was received as the result of the exercise of options granted under share-based payment arrangements (three and nine months ended March 31, 2021—$8.3 million and $23.8 million, respectively).
The tax benefit realized by us during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022 from the exercise of options eligible for a tax deduction was $0.1 million and $1.6 million, respectively (three and nine months ended March 31, 2021—$0.3 million and $1.4 million, respectively).

Long-Term Incentive Plans
We incentivize certain eligible employees, in part, with long-term compensation pursuant to our LTIP. The LTIP is a rolling three year program that grants eligible employees a certain number of target Performance Share Units (PSUs) and/or Restricted Share Units (RSUs). Target PSUs become vested upon the achievement of certain financial and/or operational performance criteria (the Performance Conditions) that are determined at the time of the grant. Target RSUs become vested when an eligible employee remains employed throughout the vesting period.
PSUs and RSUs granted under the LTIP have been measured at fair value as of the effective date, consistent with Topic 718, and will be charged to share-based compensation expense over the remaining life of the plan. We estimate the fair value of PSUs using the Monte Carlo pricing model and RSUs have been valued based upon their grant date fair value. Stock options granted under the LTIP have been measured using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, consistent with Topic 718.
As of March 31, 2022, the total expected compensation cost related to the unvested LTIP awards not yet recognized was $41.3 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.9 years.
LTIP grants that have recently vested, or have yet to vest, are described below. LTIP grants are referred to in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q based upon the year in which the grants are expected to vest.
LTIP 2021
Grants made in Fiscal 2019 under the LTIP (collectively referred to as LTIP 2021), consisting of PSUs and RSUs, took effect in Fiscal 2019 starting on August 6, 2018. The Performance Conditions for vesting of the PSUs are based solely upon market conditions. The RSUs are employee service-based awards and vest over the life of the LTIP 2021. We settled the LTIP 2021 awards by issuing 349,792 Common Shares from treasury stock during our second quarter in Fiscal 2022, at a cost of $15.1 million.
LTIP 2022
Grants made in Fiscal 2020 under the LTIP (collectively referred to as LTIP 2022), consisting of PSUs and RSUs, took effect in Fiscal 2020 starting on August 5, 2019. The Performance Conditions for vesting of the PSUs are based solely upon market conditions. The RSUs are employee service-based awards and vest over the life of the LTIP 2022. We expect to settle the LTIP 2022 awards in stock.
LTIP 2023
Grants made in Fiscal 2021 under the LTIP (collectively referred to as LTIP 2023), consisting of PSUs and RSUs, took effect in Fiscal 2021 starting on August 10, 2020. The Performance Conditions for vesting of the PSUs are based solely upon market conditions. The RSUs are employee service-based awards and vest over the life of the LTIP 2023. We expect to settle the LTIP 2023 awards in stock.
LTIP 2024
Grants made in Fiscal 2022 under the LTIP (collectively referred to as LTIP 2024), consisting of PSUs and RSUs, took effect in Fiscal 2022 starting on August 9, 2021. The Performance Conditions for vesting of the PSUs are based solely upon market conditions. The RSUs are employee service-based awards and vest over the life of the LTIP 2024. We expect to settle the LTIP 2024 awards in stock.
Restricted Share Units
In addition to the grants made in connection with the LTIP plans discussed above, from time to time, we may grant RSUs to certain employees in accordance with employment and other non-LTIP related agreements. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we granted RSUs through a special one-time grant for development, engagement and long-term retention to certain of our non-executive employees. During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022, we granted 2,459,929 RSUs, respectively, to employees (three and nine months ended March 31, 2021— nil and 484,956 RSUs, respectively). RSUs vest over a specified contract date, typically three years from the respective date of grants.
As of March 31, 2022, the total expected compensation cost related to the unvested RSU awards not yet recognized was $106.9 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.1 years. We expect to settle RSU awards in stock.
During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022, we issued nil and 141,452 Common Shares, respectively, from treasury stock in connection with the settlement of vested RSUs, at a cost of nil and $5.9 million, respectively (three and nine months ended March 31, 2021—nil).
25

Deferred Share Units (DSUs)
During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022, we granted 5,058 and 78,705 DSUs, respectively, to certain non-employee directors (three and nine months ended March 31, 2021—5,015 and 81,585 DSUs, respectively). The DSUs were issued under our Deferred Share Unit Plan. DSUs granted as compensation for director fees vest immediately, whereas all other DSUs granted vest at our next annual general meeting following the granting of the DSUs. No DSUs are payable by us until the director ceases to be a member of the Board.
During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022, respectively, we did not issue any of our Common Shares from treasury stock in connection with the settlement of vested DSUs (three and nine months ended March 31, 2021— 23,640 Common Shares, respectively, at a cost of $1.1 million, respectively).
Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP)
Our ESPP offers employees the opportunity to purchase our Common Shares at a purchase price discount of 15%.
During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022, 246,473 and 644,986 Common Shares, respectively, were eligible for issuance to employees enrolled in the ESPP (three and nine months ended March 31, 2021—204,812 and 572,219 Common Shares, respectively).
During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022, cash in the amount of $8.9 million and $25.3 million, respectively, was received from employees relating to the ESPP (three and nine months ended March 31, 2021—$8.3 million and $22.0 million, respectively).
NOTE 14—GUARANTEES AND CONTINGENCIES
We have entered into the following contractual obligations with minimum payments for the indicated fiscal periods as follows:

| Payments due between
| Total |  | April 1, 2022 - June 30, 2022 |  | July 1, 2022 - June 30, 2024 |  | July 1, 2024 - June 30, 2026 |  | July 1, 2026 and beyond

(1) Includes interest up to maturity and principal payments. Please see note 11 “Long-Term Debt” for more details.
(2) For contractual obligations relating to leases and purchase obligations accounted for under Topic 842, please see note 6 “Leases”.
Guarantees and Indemnifications
We have entered into customer agreements which may include provisions to indemnify our customers against third party claims that our software products or services infringe certain third party intellectual property rights and for liabilities related to a breach of our confidentiality obligations. We have not made any material payments in relation to such indemnification provisions and have not accrued any liabilities related to these indemnification provisions in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Occasionally, we enter into financial guarantees with third parties in the ordinary course of our business, including, among others, guarantees relating to taxes and letters of credit on behalf of parties with whom we conduct business. Such agreements have not had a material effect on our results of operations, financial position or cash flows.
Litigation
We are currently involved in various claims and legal proceedings.
Quarterly, we review the status of each significant legal matter and evaluate such matters to determine how they should be treated for accounting and disclosure purposes in accordance with the requirements of ASC Topic 450-20 “Loss Contingencies” (Topic 450-20). Specifically, this evaluation process includes the centralized tracking and itemization of the status of all our disputes and litigation items, discussing the nature of any litigation and claim, including any dispute or claim that is reasonably likely to result in litigation, with relevant internal and external counsel, and assessing the progress of each matter in light of its merits and our experience with similar proceedings under similar circumstances.
26

If the potential loss from any claim or legal proceeding is considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated, we accrue a liability for the estimated loss in accordance with Topic 450-20. As of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the aggregate of such accrued liabilities was not material to our consolidated financial position or results of operations and we do not believe as of the date of this filing that it is reasonably possible that a loss exceeding the amounts already recognized will be incurred that would be material to our consolidated financial position or results of operations. As described more fully below, we are unable at this time to estimate a possible loss or range of losses in respect of certain disclosed matters.
Contingencies
CRA Matter
As part of its ongoing audit of our Canadian tax returns, the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) has disputed our transfer pricing methodology used for certain intercompany transactions with our international subsidiaries and has issued notices of reassessment for Fiscal 2012, Fiscal 2013, Fiscal 2014, Fiscal 2015 and Fiscal 2016. Assuming the utilization of available tax attributes (further described below), we estimate our potential aggregate liability, as of March 31, 2022, in connection with the CRA's reassessments for Fiscal 2012, Fiscal 2013, Fiscal 2014, Fiscal 2015 and Fiscal 2016, to be limited to penalties, interest and provincial taxes that may be due of approximately $75 million. As of March 31, 2022, we have provisionally paid approximately $34 million in order to fully preserve our rights to object to the CRA's audit positions, being the minimum payment required under Canadian legislation while the matter is in dispute. This amount is recorded within “Long-term income taxes recoverable” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2022.
The notices of reassessment for Fiscal 2012, Fiscal 2013, Fiscal 2014, Fiscal 2015 and Fiscal 2016 would, as drafted, increase our taxable income by approximately $90 million to $100 million for each of those years, as well as impose a 10% penalty on the proposed adjustment to income. Audits by the CRA of our tax returns for fiscal years prior to Fiscal 2012 have been completed with no reassessment of our income tax liability.
We strongly disagree with the CRA's positions and believe the reassessments of Fiscal 2012, Fiscal 2013, Fiscal 2014, Fiscal 2015 and Fiscal 2016 (including any penalties) are without merit. We have filed notices of objection for Fiscal 2012, Fiscal 2013, Fiscal 2014, Fiscal 2015 and Fiscal 2016. We are currently seeking competent authority consideration under applicable international treaties in respect of these reassessments.
Even if we are unsuccessful in challenging the CRA's reassessments to increase our taxable income for Fiscal 2012, Fiscal 2013, Fiscal 2014, Fiscal 2015 and Fiscal 2016, we have elective deductions available for those years (including carry-backs from later years) that would offset such increased amounts so that no additional cash tax would be payable, exclusive of any assessed penalties and interest, as described above.
The CRA has also been auditing Fiscal 2017 on a basis that we strongly disagree with and will vigorously contest. The focus of the CRA audit has been the valuation of certain intellectual property and goodwill when one of our subsidiaries continued into Canada from Luxembourg in July 2016. In accordance with applicable rules, these assets were recognized for tax purposes at fair market value as of that time, which value was supported by an expert valuation prepared by an independent leading accounting and advisory firm. In conjunction with the Fiscal 2017 audit, the CRA issued a proposal letter dated April 7, 2021 (Proposal Letter) indicating to us that it proposes to reassess our Fiscal 2017 tax year to reduce the depreciable basis of these assets. We have made extensive submissions in support of our position. CRA’s position for Fiscal 2017 relies in significant part on the application of its positions regarding our transfer pricing methodology that are the basis for its reassessment of our fiscal years 2012 to 2016 described above, and that we believe are without merit. Other aspects of CRA’s position for Fiscal 2017 conflict with the expert valuation prepared by the independent leading accounting and advisory firm that was used to support our original filing position. On January 27, 2022, the CRA issued a notice of reassessment in respect of Fiscal 2017 on the basis of its position set forth in the Proposal Letter. On April 19, 2022, we filed our notice of objection regarding the reassessment in respect of Fiscal 2017. If we are ultimately unsuccessful in defending our position, the estimated impact of the proposed adjustment could result in us recording an income tax expense, with no immediate cash payment, to reduce the stated value of our deferred tax assets of up to approximately $470 million. Any such income tax expense could also have a corresponding cash tax impact that would primarily occur over a period of several future years based upon annual income realization in Canada. We strongly disagree with the CRA’s position for Fiscal 2017 and intend to vigorously defend our original filing position.
We will continue to vigorously contest the proposed adjustments to our taxable income and any penalty and interest assessments, as well as any proposed reduction to the basis of our depreciable property. We are confident that our original tax filing positions were appropriate. Accordingly, as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we have not recorded any accruals in respect of these reassessments or proposed reassessment in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The CRA is currently in preliminary stages of auditing Fiscal 2018 and Fiscal 2019.

Carbonite Class Action Complaint
On August 1, 2019, prior to our acquisition of Carbonite, a purported stockholder of Carbonite filed a putative class action complaint against Carbonite, its former Chief Executive Officer, Mohamad S. Ali, and its former Chief Financial Officer, Anthony Folger, in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts captioned Ruben A. Luna, Individually and on Behalf of All Others Similarly Situated v. Carbonite, Inc., Mohamad S. Ali, and Anthony Folger (No. 1:19-cv-11662-LTS). The complaint alleges violations of the federal securities laws under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder. The complaint generally alleges that the defendants made materially false and misleading statements in connection with Carbonite’s Server Backup VM Edition, and seeks, among other things, the designation of the action as a class action, an award of unspecified compensatory damages, costs and expenses, including counsel fees and expert fees, and other relief as the court deems appropriate. On August 23, 2019, a nearly identical complaint was filed in the same court captioned William Feng, Individually and on Behalf of All Others Similarly Situated v. Carbonite, Inc., Mohamad S. Ali, and Anthony Folger (No. 1:19- cv-11808-LTS) (together with the Luna Complaint, the “Securities Actions”). On November 21, 2019, the court consolidated the Securities Actions, appointed a lead plaintiff, and designated a lead counsel. On January 15, 2020, the lead plaintiff filed a consolidated amended complaint generally making the same allegations and seeking the same relief as the complaint filed on August 1, 2019. The defendants moved to dismiss the Securities Actions on March 10, 2020. The motion was fully briefed in June 2020 and a hearing on the motion to dismiss the Securities Actions was held on October 15, 2020. Following the hearing, on October 22, 2020, the court granted with prejudice the defendants’ motion to dismiss the Securities Actions. On November 20, 2020, the lead plaintiff filed a notice of appeal to the Court of Appeals for the First Circuit. On December 21, 2021, the First Circuit issued a decision reversing and remanding the Securities Actions to the district court for further proceedings. The defendants remain confident in their position, believe the Securities Actions are without merit, and will continue to vigorously defend the matter.
Carbonite vs Realtime Data
On February 27, 2017, before our acquisition of Carbonite, a non-practicing entity named Realtime Data LLC (Realtime Data) filed a lawsuit against Carbonite in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas “Realtime Data LLC v. Carbonite, Inc. et al (No 6:17-cv-00121-RWS-JDL).” Therein, it alleged that certain of Carbonite’s cloud storage services infringe upon certain patents held by Realtime Data. Realtime Data’s complaint against Carbonite sought damages in an unspecified amount and injunctive relief. On December 19, 2017, the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas transferred the case to the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts (No. 1:17-cv-12499). Realtime Data has also filed numerous other patent suits on the same asserted patents against other companies. After a stay pending appeal in one of those suits, on January 21, 2021, the Court held a hearing to construe the claims of the asserted patents. As to the fourth patent asserted against Carbonite, on September 24, 2019, the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office Patent Trial and Appeal Board invalidated certain claims of that patent, including certain claims that had been asserted against Carbonite. The parties then jointly stipulated to dismiss that patent from this action. On August 23, 2021, in one of the suits against other companies, the District of Delaware (No. 1:17-cv-800), held all of the patents asserted against Carbonite to be invalid. Realtime Data has appealed that decision to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. We continue to vigorously defend the matter, and the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts has issued a claim construction order. We anticipate motion practice based upon the result of that order. We have not accrued a loss contingency related to this matter because litigation related to a non-practicing entity is inherently unpredictable. Although a loss is reasonably possible, an unfavorable outcome is not considered by management to be probable at this time and we remain unable to reasonably estimate a possible loss or range of loss associated with this litigation.
Please also see Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for Fiscal 2021.
NOTE 15—INCOME TAXES
Our effective tax rate represents the net effect of the mix of income earned in various tax jurisdictions that are subject to a wide range of income tax rates.
The effective tax rate increased to a provision of 35.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to a provision of 25.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Tax expense increased from $31.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2021 to $41.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022. This was primarily due to (i) an increase of $10.6 million related to the US Base Erosion and Anti-Abuse Tax (US BEAT) and (ii) an increase of $4.4 million relating to tax impacts of legal entity rationalization. These were partially offset by (i) a net decrease of $2.9 million related to Foreign Accrual Property Income and (ii) a net increase of $2.1 million benefit related to the 50% exclusion on gains in certain investment funds in which we are a limited partner. The remainder of the difference was due to normal course movements and non-material items.
28

The effective tax rate decreased to a provision of 29.6% for the nine months ended March 31, 2022, compared to a provision of 72.5% for the nine months ended March 31, 2021. Tax expense decreased from $342.1 million during the nine months ended March 31, 2021 to $123.8 million during the nine months ended March 31, 2022. This was primarily due to (i) a decrease of $300.6 million related to Internal Revenue Service (IRS) settlements in Fiscal 2021, (ii) a decrease of $11.3 million related to differences in tax filings, (iii) a net decrease of $5.9 million for related Subpart F and (iv) an increase of $5.2 million benefit related to the 50% exclusion on gains in certain investment funds in which we are a limited partner. These were partially offset by (i) an increase of $90.6 million for changes in unrecognized tax benefits, (ii) a net increase of $17.0 million related to internal reorganizations and (iii) a decrease of $4.4 million in share-based compensation benefits. The remainder of the difference was due to normal course movements and non-material items.
We recognize interest expense and penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, we recognized the following amounts as income tax-related interest expense and penalties:

| Three Months Ended March 31, |  | Nine Months Ended March 31,
| 2022 |  | 2021 |  | 2022 |  | 2021
Interest expense | $ | 336 |  |  | $ | 1,315 |  |  | $ | 803 |  |  | $ | 45,422 |
Penalties expense | 245 |  |  | 506 |  |  | 418 |  |  | 889 |
Total | $ | 581 |  |  | $ | 1,821 |  |  | $ | 1,221 |  |  | $ | 46,311 |

The following amounts have been accrued on account of income tax-related interest expense and penalties:

| As of March 31, 2022 |  | As of June 30, 2021
Interest expense accrued (1) | $ | 5,751 |  |  | $ | 5,166 |
Penalties accrued (1) | $ | 2,553 |  |  | $ | 2,605 |

(1) These balances are primarily included within “Long-term income taxes payable” within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
We believe that it is reasonably possible that the gross unrecognized tax benefits, as of March 31, 2022, could decrease tax expense in the next 12 months by $3.1 million, relating primarily to the expiration of competent authority relief and tax years becoming statute barred for purposes of future tax examinations by local taxing jurisdictions.
Our four most significant tax jurisdictions are Canada, the United States, Luxembourg and Germany. Our tax filings remain subject to audits by applicable tax authorities for a certain length of time following the tax year to which those filings relate. The earliest fiscal years open for examination are 2012 for Canada, 2016 for the United States and 2012 for Germany. As of December 31, 2021, the Fiscal 2015 and Fiscal 2016 tax years for Luxembourg became statute barred.
We are subject to income tax audits in all major taxing jurisdictions in which we operate and currently have income tax audits open in Canada, the United States, Germany, India and France. On a quarterly basis we assess the status of these examinations and the potential for adverse outcomes to determine the adequacy of the provision for income and other taxes. Statements regarding the Canada audits are included in note 14 “Guarantees and Contingencies”.
The timing of the resolution of income tax audits is highly uncertain, and the amounts ultimately paid, if any, upon resolution of the issues raised by the taxing authorities may differ from the amounts accrued. It is reasonably possible that within the next 12 months we will receive additional assessments by various tax authorities or possibly reach resolution of income tax audits in one or more jurisdictions. These assessments or settlements may or may not result in changes to our contingencies related to positions on tax filings. The actual amount of any change could vary significantly depending on the ultimate timing and nature of any settlements. We cannot currently provide an estimate of the range of possible outcomes. For more information relating to certain income tax audits, please refer to note 14 “Guarantees and Contingencies”.
As of March 31, 2022, we have recognized a provision of $29.2 million (June 30, 2021—$27.5 million) in respect of both additional foreign taxes or deferred income tax liabilities for temporary differences related to the undistributed earnings of certain non-United States subsidiaries and planned periodic repatriations from certain German subsidiaries, that will be subject to withholding taxes upon distribution. We have not provided for additional foreign withholding taxes or deferred income tax liabilities related to undistributed earnings of all other non-Canadian subsidiaries, since such earnings are considered permanently invested in those subsidiaries or are not subject to withholding taxes. It is not practicable to reasonably estimate the amount of additional deferred income tax liabilities or foreign withholding taxes that may be payable should these earnings be distributed in the future.

NOTE 16—FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT
ASC Topic 820 “Fair Value Measurement” (Topic 820) defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and addresses disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. Fair value is the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid upon transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and in the principal or most advantageous market for that asset or liability. The fair value, in this context, should be calculated based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, not on assumptions specific to the entity. In addition, the fair value of liabilities should include consideration of non-performance risk, including our own credit risk.
In addition to defining fair value and addressing disclosure requirements, Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy for valuation inputs. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three levels based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market. Each fair value measurement is reported in one of the three levels which are determined by the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. These levels are:
•Level 1—inputs are based upon unadjusted quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets.
•Level 2—inputs are based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
•Level 3—inputs are generally unobservable and typically reflect management’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The fair values are therefore determined using model-based techniques that include option pricing models, discounted cash flow models, and similar techniques.
Financial Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis:
Our financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis consisted of the following types of instruments as of March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2021:

| March 31, 2022 |  | June 30, 2021
|  |  | Fair Market Measurements using: |  |  |  | Fair Market Measurements using:
| March 31, 2022 |  | Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets/ (liabilities) |  | Significant other observable inputs |  | Significant unobservable inputs |  | June 30, 2021 |  | Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets/ (liabilities) |  | Significant other observable inputs |  | Significant unobservable inputs
(Level 1) |  | (Level 2) |  | (Level 3) |  | (Level 1) |  | (Level 2) |  | (Level 3)
Financial Assets (Liabilities): |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Foreign currency forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges (note 17) | $ | 559 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 559 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 1,131 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 1,131 |  |  | $ | — |

Our valuation techniques used to measure the fair values of the derivative instruments, the counterparty to which has high credit ratings, were derived from pricing models including discounted cash flow techniques, with all significant inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data, as no quoted market prices exist for these instruments. Our discounted cash flow techniques use observable market inputs, such as, where applicable, foreign currency spot and forward rates.
Our cash and cash equivalents, along with our accounts receivable and accounts payable and accrued liabilities balances, are measured and recognized in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements at an amount that approximates the fair value (a Level 2 measurement) due to their short maturities.
The fair value of our Senior Notes is determined based on observable market prices and categorized as a Level 2 measurement. As of March 31, 2022, the fair value was $3.1 billion (June 30, 2021—$2.7 billion). The carrying value of our other long-term debt facilities approximates the fair value since the interest rate is at market. Please see note 11 “Long-Term Debt” for further details.
30

If applicable, we will recognize transfers between levels within the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period in which the actual event or change in circumstance occurs. During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, we did not have any transfers between Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3.
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis
We measure certain assets and liabilities at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. These assets and liabilities are recognized at fair value when they are deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired. During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, no indications of impairments were identified and therefore no fair value measurements were required.
NOTE 17—DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES
Foreign Currency Forward Contracts
We are engaged in hedging programs with various banks to limit the potential foreign exchange fluctuations incurred on future cash flows relating to a portion of our Canadian dollar payroll expenses. We operate internationally and are therefore exposed to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations in the normal course of our business, in particular to changes in the Canadian dollar on account of large costs that are incurred from our centralized Canadian operations, which are denominated in Canadian dollars. As part of our risk management strategy, we use foreign currency forward contracts to hedge portions of our payroll exposure with typical maturities of between one and twelve months. We do not use foreign currency forward contracts for speculative purposes.
We have designated these transactions as cash flow hedges of forecasted transactions under ASC Topic 815 “Derivatives and Hedging” (Topic 815). As the critical terms of the hedging instrument and of the entire hedged forecasted transaction are the same, in accordance with Topic 815, we have been able to conclude that changes in fair value or cash flows attributable to the risk being hedged are expected to completely offset at inception and on an ongoing basis. Accordingly, quarterly unrealized gains or losses on the effective portion of these forward contracts have been included within “Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) - net”. The fair value of the contracts, as of March 31, 2022, is recorded within “Prepaid expenses and other current assets” and represents the net gain before tax effect that is expected to be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income into earnings with the next twelve months.
As of March 31, 2022, the notional amount of forward contracts we held to sell U.S. dollars in exchange for Canadian dollars was $67.0 million (June 30, 2021—$66.9 million).
Fair Value of Derivative Instruments and Effect of Derivative Instruments on Financial Performance
The effect of these derivative instruments on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the periods indicated below were as follows (amounts presented do not include any income tax effects).

Fiscal 2022 Restructuring Plan
During the third quarter of Fiscal 2022, as part of our return to office planning, we made a strategic decision to implement restructuring activities to streamline our operations and further reduce our real estate footprint around the world (Fiscal 2022 Restructuring Plan). The Fiscal 2022 Restructuring Plan charges will relate to facility costs and workforce reductions. Facility costs will include the accelerated amortization associated with the abandonment of ROU assets, the write-off of fixed assets and other related variable lease and exit costs. These charges require management to make certain judgments and estimates regarding the amount and timing of restructuring charges or recoveries. Our estimated liability could change subsequent to its recognition, requiring adjustments to the expense and the liability recorded. On a quarterly basis, we conduct an evaluation of the related liabilities and expenses and revise our assumptions and estimates as appropriate.
During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022, we recorded charges of $0.5 million, respectively, related to workforce reductions.
As of March 31, 2022, we expect total costs to be incurred in connection with the Fiscal 2022 Restructuring Plan to be approximately $30.0 million to $35.0 million, of which $0.5 million has been recorded within “Special charges (recoveries)” to date.

COVID-19 Restructuring Plan
During the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2020, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we made a strategic decision to move towards a significant work from home model. We began to implement restructuring activities to streamline our operations and significantly reduce our real estate footprint around the world (COVID-19 Restructuring Plan). The COVID-19 Restructuring Plan charges relate to workforce reductions and facility costs, including the accelerated amortization associated with the abandonment of ROU assets, the write-off of fixed assets and other related variable lease and exit costs. These charges require management to make certain judgments and estimates regarding the amount and timing of restructuring charges or recoveries. Our estimated liability could change subsequent to its recognition, requiring adjustments to the expense and the liability recorded. On a quarterly basis, we conduct an evaluation of the related liabilities and expenses and revise our assumptions and estimates as appropriate. With respect to the COVID-19 Restructuring Plan, at the time of initial abandonment we assumed there would be no additional sublease income, lease assignments or early terminations from vacated facilities.
During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022, we recorded net recoveries of $0.5 million and $1.3 million, respectively, related to abandoned facilities and workforce reductions.
During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021, we recorded net recoveries of $1.5 million and $15.4 million, respectively, related to office space that was abandoned during the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2020 and has since been early terminated or assigned to a third party. Included in these recoveries are $2.2 million and $12.3 million, respectively, related to the reversal of lease liabilities (see note 6 “Leases”), with the remainder related to other facility charges and recoveries. Additionally, during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021, we incurred $1.6 million and $7.8 million, respectively, of charges related to abandoned facilities, workforce reductions and the write-off of fixed assets.
Since the inception of the COVID-19 Restructuring Plan, $43.4 million has been recorded within “Special charges (recoveries)” to date. We do not expect to incur any further significant charges relating to the COVID-19 Restructuring Plan.
A reconciliation of the beginning and ending restructuring liability, which is included within “Accounts payable and accrued liabilities” and “Long-term accrued liabilities” in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 is shown below.

Fiscal 2020 Restructuring Plan
During Fiscal 2020, we began to implement restructuring activities to streamline our operations (Fiscal 2020 Restructuring Plan), including in connection with our acquisitions of Carbonite and XMedius, to take further steps to improve our operational efficiency. The Fiscal 2020 Restructuring Plan charges relate to workforce reductions and facility costs, including the accelerated amortization associated with the abandonment of ROU assets, the write-off of fixed assets and other related variable lease and exit costs. These charges require management to make certain judgments and estimates regarding the amount and timing of restructuring charges or recoveries. Our estimated liability could change subsequent to its recognition, requiring adjustments to the expense and the liability recorded. On a quarterly basis, we conduct an evaluation of the related liabilities and expenses and revise our assumptions and estimates as appropriate. With respect to the Fiscal 2020 Restructuring Plan, at the time of the initial abandonment we assumed there would be no additional sublease income, lease assignments or early terminations from vacated facilities.

During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022, we recorded immaterial charges and net recoveries of $0.1 million respectively, related to abandoned facilities and workforce reductions.
During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021, we recorded net recoveries of $0.6 million and $13.6 million, respectively, related to office space that was abandoned during the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2020 and has since been early terminated or assigned to a third party. Included in these recoveries are $1.0 million and $10.0 million, respectively, related to the reversal of lease liabilities (see note 6 “Leases”), with the remainder related to other facility charges and recoveries. Additionally, during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021, we recognized a net recovery of $0.1 million and charges of $14.1 million, respectively, related to abandoned facilities, workforce reductions and the write-off of fixed assets.
Since the inception of the Fiscal 2020 Restructuring Plan, $30.2 million has been recorded within “Special charges (recoveries)” to date. We do not expect to incur any further significant charges relating to the Fiscal 2020 Restructuring Plan.

Acquisition-related costs
Acquisition-related costs, recorded within “Special charges (recoveries)” include direct costs of potential and completed acquisitions. Acquisition-related costs for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022 were $1.3 million and $6.0 million, respectively (three and nine months ended March 31, 2021—$3.1 million and $4.6 million, respectively).
Other charges (recoveries)
For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022, “Other charges” includes $9.6 million and $11.6 million, respectively, related to pre-acquisition equity incentives, which upon acquisition were replaced by equivalent value cash settlements (see note 19 “Acquisitions”) and $0.1 million and $4.1 million, respectively, related to other miscellaneous charges.
For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021, “Other charges” includes $0.3 million and $1.1 million, respectively, related to other miscellaneous charges.

NOTE 19—ACQUISITIONS
Fiscal 2022 Acquisitions
Acquisition of Zix Corporation
On December 23, 2021, we acquired all of the equity interest in Zix Corporation (Zix), a leader in software as a service (SaaS) based email encryption, threat protection and compliance cloud solutions for small and medium-sized businesses (SMB). Total consideration for Zix was $894.5 million paid in cash, inclusive of cash acquired and $18.6 million relating to the cash settlement of pre-acquisition vested share-based compensation that was previously accrued but since paid as of March 31, 2022. In accordance with ASC Topic 805 “Business Combinations” (Topic 805), this acquisition was accounted for as a business combination. We believe the acquisition increases our position in the data protection, threat management, email security and compliance solutions spaces.
The results of operations of Zix have been consolidated with those of OpenText beginning December 23, 2021.
Preliminary Purchase Price Allocation
The recognized amounts of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based on their preliminary fair values as of December 23, 2021, are set forth below:

Current assets (inclusive of cash acquired of $38.3 million) | $ | 76,170 |
Non-current tangible assets | 13,736 |
Intangible customer assets | 213,600 |
Intangible technology assets | 92,050 |
Liabilities assumed | (86,539) |
Total identifiable net assets | 309,017 |
Goodwill | 585,443 |
Net assets acquired | $ | 894,460 |

The goodwill of $585.4 million is primarily attributable to the synergies expected to arise after the acquisition. There is $103.7 million of goodwill that is deductible for tax purposes.
The fair value of current assets acquired includes accounts receivable with a fair value of $30.1 million. The gross amount receivable was $32.7 million, of which $2.6 million is expected to be uncollectible.
Acquisition-related costs for Zix included in “Special charges (recoveries)” in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022 were $0.6 million and $2.7 million, respectively.
Pre-acquisition equity incentives of $26.6 million were replaced upon acquisition by equivalent value cash settlements to be settled in accordance with the original vesting dates, primarily over the next two years. Of these equity incentives, $9.6 million and $11.6 million for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022, respectively, were included in “Special charges (recoveries).”
The finalization of the above purchase price allocation is pending the finalization of the valuation of fair value for the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including intangible assets and taxation-related balances as well as for potential unrecorded liabilities. We expect to finalize this determination on or before our quarter ending December 31, 2022.
Since the date of acquisition, the acquisition had no significant impact on revenues and net earnings for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022. Pro forma results of operations for this acquisition have not been presented because they are not material to our consolidated results of operations.
Acquisition of Bricata Inc.
On November 24, 2021, we acquired all of the equity interest in Bricata Inc. (Bricata) for $17.8 million. In accordance with Topic 805, this acquisition was accounted for as a business combination. We believe the acquisition strengthens our OpenText Security and Protection Cloud with Network Detection and Response technologies.
The results of operations of Bricata have been consolidated with those of OpenText beginning November 24, 2021.
Since the date of acquisition, the acquisition had no significant impact on revenues and net earnings for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022. Pro forma results of operations for this acquisition have not been presented because they are not material to our consolidated results of operations.

NOTE 23—EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net income, attributable to OpenText, by the weighted average number of Common Shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share are computed by dividing net income, attributable to OpenText, by the shares used in the calculation of basic earnings per share plus the dilutive effect of Common Share equivalents, such as stock options, using the treasury stock method. Common Share equivalents are excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share if their effect is anti-dilutive.

NOTE 24—RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Our procedure regarding the approval of any related party transaction requires that the material facts of such transaction be reviewed by the independent members of the Audit Committee and the transaction be approved by a majority of the independent members of the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee reviews all transactions in which we are, or will be, a participant and any related party has or will have a direct or indirect interest in the transaction. In determining whether to approve a related party transaction, the Audit Committee generally takes into account, among other facts it deems appropriate, whether the transaction is on terms no less favorable than terms generally available to an unaffiliated third party under the same or similar circumstances; the extent and nature of the related person’s interest in the transaction; the benefits to the Company of the proposed transaction; if applicable, the effects on a director’s independence; and if applicable, the availability of other sources of comparable services or products.
During the nine months ended March 31, 2022, Mr. Stephen Sadler, a member of the Board of Directors, earned $0.4 million (nine months ended March 31, 2021—$32 thousand) in consulting fees from OpenText for assistance with acquisition-related business activities. Mr. Sadler abstained from voting on all transactions from which he would potentially derive consulting fees.
NOTE 25—SUBSEQUENT EVENT

See “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below for definitions and reconciliations of GAAP-based measures to Non-GAAP-based measures. See “Acquisitions” below for the impact of acquisitions on the period-to-period comparability of results.
Acquisitions
As a result of the continually changing marketplace in which we operate, we regularly evaluate acquisition opportunities within our market and at any time may be in various stages of discussions with respect to such opportunities.
Acquisition of Zix Corporation
On December 23, 2021, we acquired all of the equity interest in Zix Corporation (Zix), a leader in software as a service (SaaS) based email encryption, threat protection and compliance cloud solutions for SMBs. Total consideration for Zix was $894.5 million paid in cash, inclusive of $38.3 million of cash acquired and $18.6 million relating to the cash settlement of pre-acquisition vested share-based compensation that was previously accrued but since paid as of March 31, 2022. We believe the acquisition increases our position in the data protection, threat management, email security and compliance solutions spaces. The results of operations of Zix have been consolidated with those of OpenText beginning December 23, 2021.
Acquisition of Bricata Inc.
On November 24, 2021, we acquired all of the equity interest in Bricata Inc. (Bricata) for $17.8 million. We believe the acquisition strengthens our OpenText Security and Protection Cloud with Network Detection and Response technologies. The results of operations of Bricata have been consolidated with those of OpenText beginning November 24, 2021.
We believe our acquisitions support our long-term strategic direction, strengthen our competitive position, expand our customer base, provide greater scale to accelerate innovation, grow our earnings and provide superior shareholder value. We expect to continue to strategically acquire companies, products, services and technologies to augment our existing business. Our acquisitions, particularly significant ones, can affect the period-to-period comparability of our results. See note 19 “Acquisitions” to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more details.
Impacts of COVID-19
In March 2020, COVID-19 was characterized as a pandemic by the World Health Organization. The spread of COVID-19 continues to impact the global economy and has adversely impacted and may continue to adversely impact our operational and financial performance. The extent of the adverse impact of the pandemic on the global economy and markets will continue to depend, in part, on the length and severity of the measures taken to limit the spread of the virus (including any current and/or new variants), the availability, effectiveness and use of treatments and vaccines (including the effectiveness of boosters) and, in part, on the size and effectiveness of the compensating measures taken by governments and on actual and potential resurgences. We are closely monitoring the potential effects and impact on our operations, businesses and financial performance, including liquidity and capital usage, though the extent is difficult to fully predict at this time due to the rapid evolution of this uncertain situation.
We continue to conduct business with substantial modifications to employee travel and work locations and also virtualization of sales and marketing events, which we expect to remain in place throughout Fiscal 2022, along with substantially modified interactions with customers and suppliers, among other modifications. We will continue to actively monitor the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on all aspects of our business and geographies, including customer purchasing decisions, and may take further actions that alter our business operations as may be required by governments, or that we determine are in the best interest of our employees, customers, partners, suppliers, and shareholders. It is uncertain and difficult to predict what the potential effects any such alterations or modifications may have on our business including the effects on our customers and prospects, or our financial results and our ability to successfully execute our business strategies and initiatives.
As previously disclosed, during the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2020, our Compensation Committee and Board approved certain compensation adjustments in order to preemptively mitigate the operational impacts of COVID-19. These adjustments remained in effect until December 1, 2020, at which time all previously announced compensation adjustments were prospectively restored.
The ongoing and ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our operations and financial performance depends on many factors that are not within our control. For more information, please see Part II, Item 1A “Risk Factors” included elsewhere within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for Fiscal 2021.

Outlook for Remainder of Fiscal 2022
As an organization, we are committed to “Total Growth,” meaning we strive towards delivering value through organic growth initiatives, innovations and acquisitions, as well as financial performance. With an emphasis on increasing recurring revenues and expanding our margins, we believe our Total Growth strategy will ultimately drive cash flow generation, thus helping to fuel our disciplined capital allocation approach and further our ability to deepen our account coverage and identify and execute strategic acquisitions. With strategic acquisitions, we are better positioned to expand our sales coverage and product portfolio and improve our ability to innovate and grow organically, which helps us to meet our long-term growth targets. We believe this “Total Growth” strategy is a durable model that will create shareholder value over both the near and long-term.
We are committed to continuous innovation. Our investments in research and development (R&D) push product innovation, increasing the value of our offerings to our installed customer base, which includes Global 10,000 companies (G10K), SMB and consumers. The G10K are the world's largest companies, typically those with greater than two billion dollars in revenues, as well as the world's largest governments and organizations. More valuable products, coupled with the OpenText Digital Zone and global partner program, lead to greater distribution and cross-selling opportunities which further help us to achieve organic growth. On a fiscal year-to-date basis, we have invested $321.5 million or 12.4% of revenue in R&D, in line with our target to spend 12% to 14% of revenues for R&D this fiscal year.
Looking ahead, the destination for innovation is indisputably the cloud. OpenText Anywhere is our commitment to enable organizations of all sizes to deploy our products in any combination of public and private clouds, managed services and off-cloud solutions. As a result, we are committed to continue to modernize our technology infrastructure and leverage our existing investments in the OpenText Cloud. The combination of OpenText cloud-native applications and managed services, together with the scalability and performance of our partner public cloud providers, offer more secure, reliable and compliant solutions to customers wanting to deploy cloud-based Information Management applications. The OpenText Cloud is designed to build additional flexibility and scalability for our customers: becoming cloud-native, connecting anything, and extending capabilities quickly with multi-tenant SaaS applications and services.
We will continue to closely monitor the potential impacts of COVID-19, inflation with respect to wages, services and goods and the Russia-Ukraine conflict on our business. We do not expect our decision to cease all direct business in Russia and Belarus and with known Russian-owned companies to have a material adverse effect on our overall business, results of operations or financial condition. See Part II, Item 1A, "Risk Factors" included within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. These estimates, judgments and assumptions are evaluated on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable at that time. Actual results may differ materially from those estimates. The policies listed below are areas that may contain key components of our results of operations and are based on complex rules requiring us to make judgments and estimates and consequently, we consider these to be our critical accounting policies. Some of these accounting policies involve complex situations and require a higher degree of judgment, either in the application and interpretation of existing accounting literature or in the development of estimates that affect our financial statements. The critical accounting policies which we believe are the most important to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results include the following:
(i)Revenue recognition,
(ii)Goodwill,
(iii)Acquired intangibles, and
(iv)Income taxes.
For a full discussion of all our accounting policies, please see note 2 “Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Pronouncements” to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for Fiscal 2021.
We will continue to monitor the potential impact of COVID-19 on our financial statements and related disclosures, including the need for additional estimates going forward, which could include costs related to items such as special charges, restructurings, asset impairments and other non-recurring costs. As of March 31, 2022, we have recorded certain estimates in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements resulting from the pandemic, particularly with respect to the COVID-19 Restructuring Plan and allowance for credit losses, based on management's estimates and assumptions utilizing the most currently available information. Such estimates may be subject to change particularly given the unprecedented nature of the COVID-19 pandemic. Please also see “Risk Factors” included within Part II, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for Fiscal 2021.

Revenues, Cost of Revenues and Gross Margin by Product Type
1) Cloud Services and Subscriptions:
Cloud services and subscriptions revenues are from hosting arrangements where in connection with the licensing of software, the end user does not take possession of the software, as well as from end-to-end fully outsourced B2B integration solutions to our customers (collectively referred to as cloud arrangements). The software application resides on our hardware or that of a third party, and the customer accesses and uses the software on an as-needed basis via an identified line. Our cloud arrangements can be broadly categorized as platform as a service (PaaS), SaaS, cloud subscriptions and managed services. For the quarter ended March 31, 2022, our cloud renewal rate, excluding the impact of Carbonite Inc. (Carbonite) and Zix, was approximately 93%, consistent with the quarter ended March 31, 2021.
Cost of Cloud services and subscriptions revenues is comprised primarily of third party network usage fees, maintenance of in-house data hardware centers, technical support personnel-related costs, and some third party royalty costs.

Cost of Cloud services and subscriptions revenues increased by $23.7 million during the nine months ended March 31, 2022 as compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year. This was primarily due to an increase in third party network usage fees of $13.5 million, an increase in labour-related costs of $8.5 million and an increase in other miscellaneous costs of $1.7 million. Overall, the gross margin percentage on Cloud services and subscriptions revenues remained stable at 66%.
2) Customer Support:
Customer support revenues consist of revenues from our customer support and maintenance agreements. These agreements allow our customers to receive technical support, enhancements and upgrades to new versions of our software products when available. Customer support revenues are generated from support and maintenance relating to current year sales of software products and from the renewal of existing maintenance agreements for software licenses sold in prior periods. Therefore, changes in Customer support revenues do not always correlate directly to the changes in license revenues from period to period. The terms of support and maintenance agreements are typically twelve months, and are renewable, generally on an annual basis, at the option of the customer. Our management reviews our Customer support renewal rates on a quarterly basis, and we use these rates as a method of monitoring our customer service performance. For the quarter ended March 31, 2022, our Customer support renewal rate was approximately 94%, consistent with the quarter ended March 31, 2021.
Cost of Customer support revenues is comprised primarily of technical support personnel and related costs, as well as third party royalty costs.

The effective tax rate increased to a provision of 35.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to a provision of 25.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Tax expense increased from $31.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2021 to $41.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022. This was primarily due to (i) an increase of $10.6 million related to the US Base Erosion and Anti-Abuse Tax (US BEAT) and (ii) an increase of $4.4 million relating to tax impacts of legal entity rationalization. These were partially offset by (i) a net decrease of $2.9 million related to Foreign Accrual Property Income and (ii) a net increase of $2.1 million benefit related to the 50% exclusion on gains in certain investment funds in which we are a limited partner. The remainder of the difference was due to normal course movements and non-material items.

Tax expense decreased from $342.1 million during the nine months ended March 31, 2021 to $123.8 million during the nine months ended March 31, 2022. This was primarily due to (i) a decrease of $300.6 million related to Internal Revenue Service (IRS) settlements in Fiscal 2021, (ii) a decrease of $11.3 million related to differences in tax filings, (iii) a net decrease of $5.9 million for related Subpart F and (iv) an increase of $5.2 million benefit related to the 50% exclusion on gains in certain investment funds in which we are a limited partner. These were partially offset by (i) an increase of $90.6 million for changes in unrecognized tax benefits, (ii) a net increase of $17.0 million related to internal reorganizations and (iii) a decrease of $4.4 million in share-based compensation benefits. The remainder of the difference was due to normal course movements and non-material items.

In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company provides certain financial measures that are not in accordance with U.S. GAAP (Non-GAAP). These Non-GAAP financial measures have certain limitations in that they do not have a standardized meaning and thus the Company's definition may be different from similar Non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies and/or analysts and may differ from period to period. Thus it may be more difficult to compare the Company's financial performance to that of other companies. However, the Company's management compensates for these limitations by providing the relevant disclosure of the items excluded in the calculation of these Non-GAAP financial measures both in its reconciliation to the U.S. GAAP financial measures and its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, all of which should be considered when evaluating the Company's results.
The Company uses these Non-GAAP financial measures to supplement the information provided in its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, which are presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The presentation of Non-GAAP financial measures is not meant to be a substitute for financial measures presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, but rather should be evaluated in conjunction with and as a supplement to such U.S. GAAP measures. OpenText strongly encourages investors to review its financial information in its entirety and not to rely on a single financial measure. The Company therefore believes that despite these limitations, it is appropriate to supplement the disclosure of the U.S. GAAP measures with certain Non-GAAP measures defined below.
Non-GAAP-based net income and Non-GAAP-based EPS, attributable to OpenText, are consistently calculated as GAAP-based net income or earnings per share, attributable to OpenText, on a diluted basis, excluding the effects of the amortization of acquired intangible assets, other income (expense), share-based compensation, and special charges (recoveries), all net of tax and any tax benefits/expense items unrelated to current period income, as further described in the tables below. Non-GAAP-based gross profit is the arithmetical sum of GAAP-based gross profit and the amortization of acquired technology-based intangible assets and share-based compensation within cost of sales. Non-GAAP-based gross margin is calculated as Non-GAAP-based gross profit expressed as a percentage of total revenue. Non-GAAP-based income from operations is calculated as GAAP-based income from operations, excluding the amortization of acquired intangible assets, special charges (recoveries), and share-based compensation expense.
Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (Adjusted EBITDA) is consistently calculated as GAAP-based net income, attributable to OpenText, excluding interest income (expense), provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization of acquired intangible assets, other income (expense), share-based compensation and special charges (recoveries).
The Company's management believes that the presentation of the above defined Non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to investors because they portray the financial results of the Company before the impact of certain non-operational charges. The use of the term “non-operational charge” is defined for this purpose as an expense that does not impact the ongoing operating decisions taken by the Company's management. These items are excluded based upon the way the Company's management evaluates the performance of the Company's business for use in the Company's internal reports and are not excluded in the sense that they may be used under U.S. GAAP.
The Company does not acquire businesses on a predictable cycle, and therefore believes that the presentation of Non-GAAP measures, which in certain cases adjust for the impact of amortization of intangible assets and the related tax effects that are primarily related to acquisitions, will provide readers of financial statements with a more consistent basis for comparison across accounting periods and be more useful in helping readers understand the Company’s operating results and underlying operational trends. Additionally, the Company has engaged in various restructuring activities over the past several years, primarily due to acquisitions and most recently in response to our return to office planning, that have resulted in costs associated with reductions in headcount, consolidation of leased facilities and related costs, all which are recorded under the Company’s “Special charges (recoveries)” caption on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Each restructuring activity is a discrete event based on a unique set of business objectives or circumstances, and each differs in terms of its operational implementation, business impact and scope, and the size of each restructuring plan can vary significantly from period to period. Therefore, the Company believes that the exclusion of these special charges (recoveries) will also better aid readers of financial statements in the understanding and comparability of the Company's operating results and underlying operational trends.
In summary, the Company believes the provision of supplemental Non-GAAP measures allow investors to evaluate the operational and financial performance of the Company's core business using the same evaluation measures that management uses, and is therefore a useful indication of OpenText's performance or expected performance of future operations and facilitates period-to-period comparison of operating performance (although prior performance is not necessarily indicative of future performance). As a result, the Company considers it appropriate and reasonable to provide, in addition to U.S. GAAP measures, supplementary Non-GAAP financial measures that exclude certain items from the presentation of its financial results.
The following charts provide unaudited reconciliations of U.S. GAAP-based financial measures to Non-GAAP-based financial measures for the following periods presented.

(3) | GAAP-based and Non-GAAP-based gross profit stated in dollars and gross margin stated as a percentage of total revenue.
(4) | Adjustment relates to the exclusion of special charges (recoveries) from our Non-GAAP-based operating expenses as special charges (recoveries) are generally incurred in the periods relevant to an acquisition and include certain charges or recoveries that are not indicative or related to continuing operations, and are therefore excluded from our internal analysis of operating results. See note 18 “Special charges (recoveries)” to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more details.
(5) | GAAP-based and Non-GAAP-based income from operations stated in dollars.
(6) | Adjustment relates to the exclusion of other income (expense) from our Non-GAAP-based operating expenses as other income (expense) generally relates to the transactional impact of foreign exchange and is generally not indicative or related to continuing operations and is therefore excluded from our internal analysis of operating results. Other income (expense) also includes our share of income (losses) from our holdings in investments as a limited partner. We do not actively trade equity securities in these privately held companies nor do we plan our ongoing operations based around any anticipated fundings or distributions from these investments. We exclude gains and losses on these investments as we do not believe they are reflective of our ongoing business and operating results.
(7) | Adjustment relates to differences between the GAAP-based tax provision rate of approximately 35% and a Non-GAAP-based tax rate of approximately 14%; these rate differences are due to the income tax effects of items that are excluded for the purpose of calculating Non-GAAP-based adjusted net income. Such excluded items include amortization, share-based compensation, special charges (recoveries) and other income (expense), net. Also excluded are tax benefits/expense items unrelated to current period income such as changes in reserves for tax uncertainties and valuation allowance reserves, and “book to return” adjustments for tax return filings and tax assessments. Included is the amount of net tax benefits arising from the internal reorganization that occurred in Fiscal 2017 assumed to be allocable to the current period based on the forecasted utilization period. In arriving at our Non-GAAP-based tax rate of approximately 14%, we analyzed the individual adjusted expenses and took into consideration the impact of statutory tax rates from local jurisdictions incurring the expense.

(4) | Adjustment relates to the exclusion of special charges (recoveries) from our Non-GAAP-based operating expenses as special charges (recoveries) are generally incurred in the periods relevant to an acquisition and include certain charges or recoveries that are not indicative or related to continuing operations, and are therefore excluded from our internal analysis of operating results. See note 18 “Special charges (recoveries)” to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more details.
(5) | GAAP-based and Non-GAAP-based income from operations stated in dollars.
(6) | Adjustment relates to the exclusion of other income (expense) from our Non-GAAP-based operating expenses as other income (expense) generally relates to the transactional impact of foreign exchange and is generally not indicative or related to continuing operations and is therefore excluded from our internal analysis of operating results. Other income (expense) also includes our share of income (losses) from our holdings in investments as a limited partner. We do not actively trade equity securities in these privately held companies nor do we plan our ongoing operations based around any anticipated fundings or distributions from these investments. We exclude gains and losses on these investments as we do not believe they are reflective of our ongoing business and operating results.
(7) | Adjustment relates to differences between the GAAP-based tax provision rate of approximately 73% and a Non-GAAP-based tax rate of approximately 14%; these rate differences are due to the income tax effects of items that are excluded for the purpose of calculating Non-GAAP-based adjusted net income. Such excluded items include amortization, share-based compensation, special charges (recoveries) and other income (expense), net. Also excluded are tax benefits/expense items unrelated to current period income such as changes in reserves for tax uncertainties and valuation allowance reserves, and “book to return” adjustments for tax return filings and tax assessments. Included is the amount of net tax benefits arising from the internal reorganization that occurred in Fiscal 2017 assumed to be allocable to the current period based on the forecasted utilization period. In arriving at our Non-GAAP-based tax rate of approximately 14%, we analyzed the individual adjusted expenses and took into consideration the impact of statutory tax rates from local jurisdictions incurring the expense. The GAAP-based tax provision rate for the nine months ended March 31, 2021 includes an income tax provision charge from IRS settlements partially offset by a tax benefit from the release of unrecognized tax benefits due to the conclusion of relevant tax audits that was recognized during the three months ended December 31, 2020.

Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents primarily consist of balances with banks as well as deposits with original maturities of 90 days or less.
We continue to anticipate that our cash and cash equivalents, as well as available credit facilities, will be sufficient to fund our anticipated cash requirements for working capital, contractual commitments, capital expenditures, dividends and operating needs for the next twelve months. Any further material or acquisition-related activities may require additional sources of financing and would be subject to the financial covenants established under our credit facilities. For more details, see “Long-term Debt and Credit Facilities” below.
As of March 31, 2022, we have recognized a provision of $29.2 million (June 30, 2021—$27.5 million) in respect of both additional foreign taxes or deferred income tax liabilities for temporary differences related to the undistributed earnings of certain non-United States subsidiaries and planned periodic repatriations from certain German subsidiaries, that will be subject to withholding taxes upon distribution.
We have deferred a total of approximately $99.0 million of tax payments under the CARES Act and other COVID-19 related tax relief programs in EMEA since our fourth quarter of Fiscal 2020. During the nine months ended March 31, 2022, we made repayments of approximately $9.0 million related to amounts previously deferred. As of March 31, 2022, we have remaining deferrals of $30.0 million which will become payable throughout Fiscal 2022 and Fiscal 2023.
Cash flows provided by operating activities
Cash flows from operating activities increased by $149.9 million, due to an increase in net income after the impact of non-cash items of $106.4 million and an increase in changes from working capital of $43.5 million.
The increase in operating cash flow from changes in working capital was primarily due to the net impact of the following increases:
(i)$106.3 million relating to income taxes payable, net of receivables;
(ii)$26.8 million relating to net operating lease assets and liabilities;
(iii)$15.8 million relating to other assets; and
(iv)$1.8 million relating to contract assets.
These increases in operating cash flows were partially offset by the following decreases:
(i)$38.4 million relating to accounts payable and accrued liabilities;
(ii)$37.0 million relating to deferred revenues;
(iii)$18.6 million relating to accounts receivable; and
(iv)$13.2 million relating to prepaid expenses and other current assets.
During the third quarter of Fiscal 2022 our days sales outstanding (DSO) of 44 days remained stable compared to our DSO during the third quarter of Fiscal 2021. The per day impact of our DSO in the third quarter of Fiscal 2022 and Fiscal 2021
64

on our cash flows was $9.8 million and $9.3 million, respectively. In arriving at DSO, we exclude contract assets as these assets do not provide an unconditional right to the related consideration from the customer.
Cash flows used in investing activities
Our cash flows used in investing activities is primarily on account of acquisitions and additions of property and equipment.
Cash flows used in investing activities increased by $894.7 million, primarily due to an increase in consideration paid for acquisitions during the first nine months of Fiscal 2022, which includes cash paid for the acquisitions of Zix of $856.2 million and Bricata of $17.9 million.
Cash flows provided by (used in) financing activities
Our cash flows from financing activities generally consist of long-term debt financing and amounts received from stock options exercised by our employees. These inflows are typically offset by scheduled and non-scheduled repayments of our long-term debt financing and, when applicable, the payment of dividends and/or repurchases of our Common Shares.
Cash flows provided by financing activities increased by $1.0 billion. This is primarily due to the net impact of the following activities:
(i)$1.5 billion relating to proceeds from the issuance of Senior Notes 2031 and Senior Notes 2029 (both defined below), of which a portion of the net proceeds was used to redeem $850.0 million of our Senior Notes 2026 (as defined below); and
(ii)$10.7 million higher proceeds from the issuance of Common Shares for the exercise of options and the OpenText Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP).
The increases in cash flows provided by financing activities were partially offset by the following decreases:
(i)$250.0 million relating to higher repayments of our long-term debt and Revolver (as defined below), which is inclusive of $850.0 million redemption of Senior Notes 2026 (as defined below) during our second quarter of Fiscal 2022, partially offset by $600.0 million repaid on amounts previously drawn on our Revolver in the second quarter of Fiscal 2021;
(ii)$136.1 million relating to the repurchase and cancellation of 2,809,559 Common Shares under our share repurchase plans authorized on both November 5, 2020 and November 4, 2021 (as discussed below);
(iii)$25.0 million relating to early call termination premium upon redemption of Senior Notes 2026 and $17.2 million relating to debt issuance costs for the issuance of Senior Notes 2031 and Senior Notes 2029;
(iv)$22.3 million relating to higher cash dividends paid to shareholders;
(v)$10.8 million relating to more cash used in the repurchase of Common Shares on the open market for potential reissuance under our Long-Term Incentive Plans (LTIP) or other stock compensation plans; and
(vi)$0.4 million relating to a cash distribution to non-controlling interests holder.
Cash Dividends
During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022, we declared and paid cash dividends of $0.2209 and $0.6627 per Common Share, respectively, in the aggregate amount of $59.1 million and $178.6 million, respectively (three and nine months ended March 31, 2021—$0.2008 and $0.5762 per Common Share, respectively, in the aggregate amount of $54.5 million and $156.3 million, respectively).
Future declarations of dividends and the establishment of future record and payment dates are subject to final determination and discretion of the Board. See Item 5 “Dividend Policy” included within our Annual Report on Form 10-K for Fiscal 2021 for more information.

On May 30, 2018, we entered into a credit facility, which provides for a $1 billion term loan facility with certain lenders named therein, Barclays Bank PLC (Barclays), as sole administrative agent and collateral agent, and as lead arranger and joint bookrunner (Term Loan B) and borrowed the full amount on May 30, 2018 to, among other things, repay in full the loans under our prior $800 million term loan credit facility originally entered into on January 16, 2014. Repayments made under Term Loan B are equal to 0.25% of the principal amount in equal quarterly installments for the life of Term Loan B, with the remainder due at maturity.
Borrowings under Term Loan B are secured by a first charge over substantially all of our assets on a pari passu basis with the Revolver. Term Loan B has a seven year term, maturing in May 2025.
Borrowings under Term Loan B bear interest at a rate per annum equal to an applicable margin plus, at the borrower’s option, either (1) the Eurodollar rate for the interest period relevant to such borrowing or (2) an ABR rate. The applicable margin for borrowings under Term Loan B is 1.75%, with respect to LIBOR advances and 0.75%, with respect to ABR advances. The interest on the current outstanding balance for Term Loan B is equal to 1.75% plus LIBOR (subject to a 0.00% floor). As of March 31, 2022, the outstanding balance on the Term Loan B bears an interest rate of 1.96%. For more information regarding the impact of LIBOR, see “Stress in the global financial system may adversely affect our finances and operations in ways that may be hard to predict or to defend against” included within Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for Fiscal 2021.
Term Loan B has incremental facility capacity of (i) $250 million plus (ii) additional amounts, subject to meeting a “consolidated senior secured net leverage” ratio not exceeding 2.75:1.00, in each case subject to certain conditions. Consolidated senior secured net leverage ratio is defined for this purpose as the proportion of our total debt reduced by unrestricted cash, including guarantees and letters of credit, that is secured by our or any of our subsidiaries’ assets, over our trailing twelve months net income before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, restructuring, share-based compensation and other miscellaneous charges.
Under Term Loan B, we must maintain a “consolidated net leverage” ratio of no more than 4:1 at the end of each financial quarter. Consolidated net leverage ratio is defined for this purpose as the proportion of our total debt reduced by unrestricted cash, including guarantees and letters of credit, over our trailing twelve months net income before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, restructuring, share-based compensation and other miscellaneous charges. As of March 31, 2022, our consolidated net leverage ratio was 1.9:1.
Revolver
On October 31, 2019, we amended our committed revolving credit facility (the Revolver) to increase the total commitments under the Revolver from $450 million to $750 million as well as to extend the maturity from May 5, 2022 to October 31, 2024. Borrowings under the Revolver are secured by a first charge over substantially all of our assets, on a pari passu basis with Term Loan B. The Revolver has no fixed repayment date prior to the end of the term. Borrowings under the Revolver bear interest per annum at a floating rate of LIBOR plus a fixed margin dependent on our consolidated net leverage ratio ranging from 1.25% to 1.75%. For more information regarding the impact of LIBOR, see “Stress in the global financial system may adversely affect our finances and operations in ways that may be hard to predict or to defend against” included within Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for Fiscal 2021.
Under the Revolver, we must maintain a “consolidated net leverage” ratio of no more than 4:1 at the end of each financial quarter. Consolidated net leverage ratio is defined for this purpose as the proportion of our total debt reduced by unrestricted cash, including guarantees and letters of credit, over our trailing twelve months net income before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, restructuring, share-based compensation and other miscellaneous charges.
As of March 31, 2022, we had no outstanding balance under the Revolver (June 30, 2021—nil).
For further details relating to our debt, please see note 11 “Long-Term Debt” to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Shelf Registration Statement
On December 6, 2021, we filed a universal shelf registration statement on Form S-3 with the SEC, which became effective automatically (the Shelf Registration Statement). The Shelf Registration Statement allows for primary and secondary offerings from time to time of equity, debt and other securities, including Common Shares, Preference Shares, debt securities, depositary shares, warrants, purchase contracts, units and subscription receipts. A short-form base shelf prospectus qualifying the distribution of such securities was concurrently filed with Canadian securities regulators on December 6, 2021. The type of securities and the specific terms thereof will be determined at the time of any offering and will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement to be filed separately with the SEC and Canadian securities regulators.
Share Repurchase Plan / Normal Course Issuer Bid
On November 5, 2020, the Board authorized a share repurchase plan, pursuant to which we were authorized to purchase in open market transactions, from time to time over the 12 month period commencing November 12, 2020, up to an aggregate of $350 million of our Common Shares on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, the TSX and/or other exchanges and alternative trading systems in Canada and/or the United States, if eligible, subject to applicable law and stock exchange rules (the “Repurchase Plan”). The price that we were authorized to pay for Common Shares in open market transactions was the market price at the time of purchase or such other price as was permitted by applicable law or stock exchange rules.
The Repurchase Plan was effected in accordance with Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act (Rule 10b-18). Purchases made under the Repurchase Plan were subject to a limit of 13,618,774 shares (representing 5% of the Company’s issued and outstanding Common Shares as of November 4, 2020). All Common Shares purchased by us pursuant to the Repurchase Plan were cancelled.
On November 4, 2021, the Board authorized a share repurchase plan, pursuant to which we may purchase in open market transactions, from time to time over the 12 month period commencing November 12, 2021, up to an aggregate of $350 million of our Common Shares on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, the Toronto Stock Exchange (as part of a NCIB as defined below) and/or other exchanges and alternative trading systems in Canada and/or the United States, if eligible, subject to applicable law and stock exchange rules (the “Renewed Repurchase Plan”). The price that we have paid and will pay for Common Shares in open market transactions has been and will be the market price at the time of purchase or such other price as may be permitted by applicable law or stock exchange rules.
The Renewed Repurchase Plan has been and will be effected in accordance with Rule 10b-18. Purchases made under the Renewed Repurchase Plan are subject to a limit of 13,638,008 shares (representing 5% of the Company’s issued and outstanding Common Shares as of October 31, 2021). All Common Shares purchased by us pursuant to the Renewed Repurchase Plan have been and will be cancelled.
During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022, we repurchased and cancelled 1,000,000 and 2,809,559 Common Shares, respectively, for $45.1 million and $136.1 million, respectively (three and nine months ended March 31, 2021—nil, respectively). Share repurchases during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022 were completed under our share repurchase plans authorized on both November 5, 2020 and November 4, 2021.
Normal Course Issuer Bid
The Company established a Normal Course Issuer Bid (the NCIB) in order to provide it with a means to execute purchases over the TSX as part of the overall Repurchase Plan.
The TSX approved the Company’s notice of intention to commence the NCIB pursuant to which the Company was authorized to purchase Common Shares over the TSX for the period commencing November 12, 2020 until November 11, 2021 in accordance with the TSX's normal course issuer bid rules, including that such purchases were to be made at prevailing market prices or as otherwise permitted. Under the rules of the TSX, the maximum number of Common Shares that could be purchased in this period was 13,618,774 (representing 5% of the Company’s issued and outstanding Common Shares as of November 4, 2020), and the maximum number of Common Shares that could be purchased on a single day was 143,424 Common Shares, which was 25% of 573,699 (the average daily trading volume for the Common Shares on the TSX for the six months ended October 31, 2020), subject to certain exceptions for block purchases, subject in any case to the volume and other limitations under Rule 10b-18.
The Company renewed its Normal Course Issuer Bid (the Renewed NCIB) in order to provide it with a means to execute purchases over the TSX as part of the overall Renewed Repurchase Plan.
The TSX approved the Company's notice of intention to commence the Renewed NCIB pursuant to which the Company may purchase Common Shares over the TSX for the period commencing November 12, 2021 until November 11, 2022 in accordance with the TSX's normal course issuer bid rules, including that such purchases are to be made at prevailing market prices or as otherwise permitted. Under the rules of the TSX, the maximum number of Common Shares that may be purchased
70

in this period is 13,638,008 (representing 5% of the Company’s issued and outstanding Common Shares as of October 31, 2021), and the maximum number of Common Shares that may be purchased on a single day is 112,590 Common Shares, which is 25% of 450,361 (the average daily trading volume for the Common Shares on the TSX for the six months ended October 31, 2021), subject to certain exceptions for block purchases, subject in any case to the volume and other limitations under Rule 10b-18.
Pensions
As of March 31, 2022, our total unfunded pension plan obligations were $78.9 million, of which $2.5 million is payable within the next twelve months. We expect to be able to make the long-term and short-term payments related to these obligations in the normal course of operations.
Our anticipated payments under our most significant plans, Open Text Document Technologies GmbH (CDT), GXS GmbH (GXS GER), GXS Philippines, Inc. (GXS PHP), for the fiscal years indicated below are as follows:

(2) Represents the undiscounted future minimum lease payments under our operating leases liabilities and excludes sublease income expected to be received under our various sublease agreements with third parties. Please see note 6 “Leases” to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more details.
Guarantees and Indemnifications
We have entered into customer agreements which may include provisions to indemnify our customers against third party claims that our software products or services infringe certain third party intellectual property rights and for liabilities related to a breach of our confidentiality obligations. We have not made any material payments in relation to such indemnification provisions and have not accrued any liabilities related to these indemnification provisions in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Occasionally, we enter into financial guarantees with third parties in the ordinary course of our business, including, among others, guarantees relating to taxes and letters of credit on behalf of parties with whom we conduct business. Such agreements have not had a material effect on our results of operations, financial position or cash flows.
71

Litigation
We are currently involved in various claims and legal proceedings. Quarterly, we review the status of each significant legal matter and evaluate such matters to determine how they should be treated for accounting and disclosure purposes in accordance with the requirements of ASC Topic 450-20 “Loss Contingencies” (Topic 450-20). Specifically, this evaluation process includes the centralized tracking and itemization of the status of all our disputes and litigation items, discussing the nature of any litigation and claim, including any dispute or claim that is reasonably likely to result in litigation, with relevant internal and external counsel, and assessing the progress of each matter in light of its merits and our experience with similar proceedings under similar circumstances.
If the potential loss from any claim or legal proceeding is considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated, we accrue a liability for the estimated loss in accordance with Topic 450-20. As of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the aggregate of such accrued liabilities was not material to our consolidated financial position or results of operations and we do not believe as of the date of this filing that it is reasonably possible that a loss exceeding the amounts already recognized will be incurred that would be material to our consolidated financial position or results of operations. As more fully described below, we are unable at this time to estimate a possible loss or range of losses in respect of certain disclosed matters.
Contingencies
CRA Matter
As part of its ongoing audit of our Canadian tax returns, the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) has disputed our transfer pricing methodology used for certain intercompany transactions with our international subsidiaries and has issued notices of reassessment for Fiscal 2012, Fiscal 2013, Fiscal 2014, Fiscal 2015 and Fiscal 2016. Assuming the utilization of available tax attributes (further described below), we estimate our potential aggregate liability, as of March 31, 2022, in connection with the CRA's reassessments for Fiscal 2012, Fiscal 2013, Fiscal 2014, Fiscal 2015 and Fiscal 2016, to be limited to penalties, interest and provincial taxes that may be due of approximately $75 million. As of March 31, 2022, we have provisionally paid approximately $34 million in order to fully preserve our rights to object to the CRA's audit positions, being the minimum payment required under Canadian legislation while the matter is in dispute. This amount is recorded within “Long-term income taxes recoverable” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2022.
The notices of reassessment for Fiscal 2012, Fiscal 2013, Fiscal 2014, Fiscal 2015 and Fiscal 2016 would, as drafted, increase our taxable income by approximately $90 million to $100 million for each of those years, as well as impose a 10% penalty on the proposed adjustment to income. Audits by the CRA of our tax returns for fiscal years prior to Fiscal 2012 have been completed with no reassessment of our income tax liability.
We strongly disagree with the CRA's positions and believe the reassessments of Fiscal 2012, Fiscal 2013, Fiscal 2014, Fiscal 2015 and Fiscal 2016 (including any penalties) are without merit. We have filed notices of objection for Fiscal 2012, Fiscal 2013, Fiscal 2014, Fiscal 2015 and Fiscal 2016. We are currently seeking competent authority consideration under applicable international treaties in respect of these reassessments.
Even if we are unsuccessful in challenging the CRA's reassessments to increase our taxable income for Fiscal 2012, Fiscal 2013, Fiscal 2014, Fiscal 2015 and Fiscal 2016, we have elective deductions available for those years (including carry-backs from later years) that would offset such increased amounts so that no additional cash tax would be payable, exclusive of any assessed penalties and interest, as described above.
The CRA has also been auditing Fiscal 2017 on a basis that we strongly disagree with and will vigorously contest. The focus of the CRA audit has been the valuation of certain intellectual property and goodwill when one of our subsidiaries continued into Canada from Luxembourg in July 2016. In accordance with applicable rules, these assets were recognized for tax purposes at fair market value as of that time, which value was supported by an expert valuation prepared by an independent leading accounting and advisory firm. In conjunction with the Fiscal 2017 audit, the CRA issued a proposal letter dated April 7, 2021 (Proposal Letter) indicating to us that it proposes to reassess our Fiscal 2017 tax year to reduce the depreciable basis of these assets. We have made extensive submissions in support of our position. CRA’s position for Fiscal 2017 relies in significant part on the application of its positions regarding our transfer pricing methodology that are the basis for its reassessment of our fiscal years 2012 to 2016 described above, and that we believe are without merit. Other aspects of CRA’s position for Fiscal 2017 conflict with the expert valuation prepared by the independent leading accounting and advisory firm that was used to support our original filing position. On January 27, 2022, the CRA issued a notice of reassessment in respect of Fiscal 2017 on the basis of its position set forth in the Proposal Letter. On April 19, 2022, we filed our notice of objection regarding the reassessment in respect of Fiscal 2017. If we are ultimately unsuccessful in defending our position, the estimated impact of the proposed adjustment could result in us recording an income tax expense, with no immediate cash payment, to reduce the stated value of our deferred tax assets of up to approximately $470 million. Any such income tax expense could also have a corresponding cash tax impact that would primarily occur over a period of several future years based upon annual
72

income realization in Canada. We strongly disagree with the CRA’s position for Fiscal 2017 and intend to vigorously defend our original filing position.
We will continue to vigorously contest the proposed adjustments to our taxable income and any penalty and interest assessments, as well as any proposed reduction to the basis of our depreciable property. We are confident that our original tax filing positions were appropriate. Accordingly, as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we have not recorded any accruals in respect of these reassessments or proposed reassessment in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The CRA is currently in preliminary stages of auditing Fiscal 2018 and Fiscal 2019.
Carbonite Class Action Complaint
On August 1, 2019, prior to our acquisition of Carbonite, a purported stockholder of Carbonite filed a putative class action complaint against Carbonite, its former Chief Executive Officer, Mohamad S. Ali, and its former Chief Financial Officer, Anthony Folger, in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts captioned Ruben A. Luna, Individually and on Behalf of All Others Similarly Situated v. Carbonite, Inc., Mohamad S. Ali, and Anthony Folger (No. 1:19-cv-11662-LTS). The complaint alleges violations of the federal securities laws under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder. The complaint generally alleges that the defendants made materially false and misleading statements in connection with Carbonite’s Server Backup VM Edition, and seeks, among other things, the designation of the action as a class action, an award of unspecified compensatory damages, costs and expenses, including counsel fees and expert fees, and other relief as the court deems appropriate. On August 23, 2019, a nearly identical complaint was filed in the same court captioned William Feng, Individually and on Behalf of All Others Similarly Situated v. Carbonite, Inc., Mohamad S. Ali, and Anthony Folger (No. 1:19- cv-11808-LTS) (together with the Luna Complaint, the “Securities Actions”). On November 21, 2019, the court consolidated the Securities Actions, appointed a lead plaintiff, and designated a lead counsel. On January 15, 2020, the lead plaintiff filed a consolidated amended complaint generally making the same allegations and seeking the same relief as the complaint filed on August 1, 2019. The defendants moved to dismiss the Securities Actions on March 10, 2020. The motion was fully briefed in June 2020 and a hearing on the motion to dismiss the Securities Actions was held on October 15, 2020. Following the hearing, on October 22, 2020, the court granted with prejudice the defendants’ motion to dismiss the Securities Actions. On November 20, 2020, the lead plaintiff filed a notice of appeal to the Court of Appeals for the First Circuit. On December 21, 2021, the First Circuit issued a decision reversing and remanding the Securities Actions to the district court for further proceedings. The defendants remain confident in their position, believe the Securities Actions are without merit, and will continue to vigorously defend the matter.
Carbonite vs Realtime Data
On February 27, 2017, before our acquisition of Carbonite, a non-practicing entity named Realtime Data LLC (Realtime Data) filed a lawsuit against Carbonite in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas “Realtime Data LLC v. Carbonite, Inc. et al (No 6:17-cv-00121-RWS-JDL).” Therein, it alleged that certain of Carbonite’s cloud storage services infringe upon certain patents held by Realtime Data. Realtime Data’s complaint against Carbonite sought damages in an unspecified amount and injunctive relief. On December 19, 2017, the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas transferred the case to the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts (No. 1:17-cv-12499). Realtime Data has also filed numerous other patent suits on the same asserted patents against other companies. After a stay pending appeal in one of those suits, on January 21, 2021, the Court held a hearing to construe the claims of the asserted patents. As to the fourth patent asserted against Carbonite, on September 24, 2019, the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office Patent Trial and Appeal Board invalidated certain claims of that patent, including certain claims that had been asserted against Carbonite. The parties then jointly stipulated to dismiss that patent from this action. On August 23, 2021, in one of the suits against other companies, the District of Delaware (No. 1:17-cv-800), held all of the patents asserted against Carbonite to be invalid. Realtime Data has appealed that decision to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. We continue to vigorously defend the matter, and the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts has issued a claim construction order. We anticipate motion practice based upon the result of that order. We have not accrued a loss contingency related to this matter because litigation related to a non-practicing entity is inherently unpredictable. Although a loss is reasonably possible, an unfavorable outcome is not considered by management to be probable at this time and we remain unable to reasonably estimate a possible loss or range of loss associated with this litigation.
Please also see Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for Fiscal 2021.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not enter into off-balance sheet financing as a matter of practice, except for guarantees relating to taxes and letters of credit on behalf of parties with whom we conduct business.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are primarily exposed to market risks associated with fluctuations in interest rates on our term loans, revolving loans and foreign currency exchange rates.
Interest rate risk
Our exposure to interest rate fluctuations relate primarily to our Term Loan B and the Revolver.
As of March 31, 2022, we had an outstanding balance of $960.0 million on Term Loan B. Term Loan B bears a floating interest rate of 1.75% plus LIBOR. As of March 31, 2022, an adverse change of one percent on the interest rate would have the effect of increasing our annual interest payment on Term Loan B by approximately $9.6 million, assuming that the loan balance as of March 31, 2022 is outstanding for the entire period (June 30, 2021—$9.7 million).
As of March 31, 2022, we had no outstanding balance under the Revolver. Borrowings under the Revolver bear interest per annum at a floating rate of LIBOR plus a fixed rate that is dependent on our consolidated net leverage ratio ranging from 1.25% to 1.75%. As of March 31, 2022, with no outstanding balance on the Revolver, an adverse change of one percent on the interest rate would have no effect on our annual interest payment (June 30, 2021—nil).
For more information regarding the impact of LIBOR, see “Stress in the global financial system may adversely affect our finances and operations in ways that may be hard to predict or to defend against” included within Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for Fiscal 2021.
Foreign currency risk
Foreign currency transaction risk
We transact business in various foreign currencies. Our foreign currency exposures typically arise from intercompany fees, intercompany loans and other intercompany transactions that are expected to be cash settled in the near term and are transacted in non-functional currency. We expect that we will continue to realize gains or losses with respect to our foreign currency exposures. Our ultimate realized gain or loss with respect to foreign currency exposures will generally depend on the size and type of cross-currency transactions that we enter into, the currency exchange rates associated with these exposures and changes in those rates. Additionally, we have hedged certain of our Canadian dollar foreign currency exposures relating to our payroll expenses in Canada.
Based on the foreign exchange forward contracts outstanding as of March 31, 2022, a one cent change in the Canadian dollar to U.S. dollar exchange rate would have caused a change of $0.7 million in the mark to market on our existing foreign exchange forward contracts (June 30, 2021—$0.7 million).
Foreign currency translation risk
Our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. Fluctuations in foreign currencies impact the amount of total assets and liabilities that we report for our foreign subsidiaries upon the translation of these amounts into U.S. dollars. In particular, the amount of cash and cash equivalents that we report in U.S. dollars for a significant portion of the cash held by these subsidiaries is subject to translation variance caused by changes in foreign currency exchange rates as of the end of each respective reporting period (the offset to which is recorded to accumulated other comprehensive income on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets).
The following table shows our cash and cash equivalents denominated in certain major foreign currencies as of March 31, 2022 (equivalent in U.S. dollar):

(In thousands) | U.S. Dollar Equivalent at March 31, 2022 |  | U.S. Dollar Equivalent at June 30, 2021
Euro | $ | 373,391 |  |  | $ | 331,974 |
British Pound | 53,428 |  |  | 78,140 |
Canadian Dollar | 24,916 |  |  | 26,632 |
Swiss Franc | 53,841 |  |  | 44,900 |
Other foreign currencies | 141,421 |  |  | 128,879 |
Total cash and cash equivalents denominated in foreign currencies | 646,997 |  |  | 610,525 |
U.S. Dollar | 986,705 |  |  | 996,781 |
Total cash and cash equivalents | $ | 1,633,702 |  |  | $ | 1,607,306 |

If overall foreign currency exchange rates in comparison to the U.S. dollar uniformly weakened by 10%, the amount of cash and cash equivalents we would report in equivalent U.S. dollars would decrease by $64.7 million (June 30, 2021—$61.1 million), assuming we have not entered into any derivatives discussed above under “Foreign Currency Transaction Risk”.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
(A) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of March 31, 2022, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act were recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file under the Exchange Act (according to Rule 13(a)-15(e)) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
(B) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting (ICFR)
Based on the evaluation completed by our management, in which our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer participated, our management has concluded that there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
As a result of COVID-19, we continue to operate under a work from home model. Although our pre-existing controls were not specifically designed to operate in this current environment, we continue to believe that our established internal control over financial reporting addresses all identified risk areas. We continue to monitor for any effects that the COVID-19 pandemic may have on the design or operating effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting.
Part II - Other Information
Item 1A. Risk Factors
You should carefully consider the risk factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year ended June 30, 2021. These are not the only risks and uncertainties facing us. Additional risks not currently known to us or that we currently believe are immaterial may also impair our operating results, financial condition and liquidity. Our business is also subject to general risks and uncertainties that affect many other companies.
Risks Related to our Business and Industry
Geopolitical instability, political unrest, war, and other global conflicts, including the Russia-Ukraine conflict, has affected and may continue to affect our business.
Geopolitical instability, political unrest, war, and other global conflicts may result in adverse effects on macroeconomic conditions, including volatility in financial markets, adverse changes in trade policies, inflation, supply chain disruptions, increased cybersecurity threats and fluctuations in foreign currency. These events may also impact our decision or limit our ability to conduct business in certain areas or with certain entities. For example, in response to the Russia-Ukraine conflict, we have ceased all direct business in Russia and Belarus and with known Russian-owned companies. Sanctions and export controls have also been imposed by the United States, Canada and other countries in connection with Russia's military actions in Ukraine, including restrictions on selling or importing goods, services or technology in or from certain regions, and travel bans and asset freezes impacting connected individuals and political, military, business and financial organizations in Russia. To support certain of our cloud customers headquartered in the United States or allied countries that rely on our network to manage their global business (including their business in Russia), we have allowed these customers to continue to use our services to the extent that it can be done in strict compliance with all applicable sanctions and export controls. However, as the situation develops and the regulatory environment continues to evolve, we may adjust our business practices as required by applicable rules and regulations. Our compliance with sanctions and export controls could impact the fulfillment of certain contracts with customers and partners doing business in these affected areas and future revenue streams from impacted parties. While we do not expect our decision to cease all direct business in Russia and Belarus and with known Russian-owned companies to have a material adverse effect on our overall business, results of operations or financial condition, it is not possible to predict the broader consequences of this conflict or other conflicts, which could include sanctions, embargoes, regional instability, geopolitical shifts and adverse effects on the global economy, on our business and operations as well as those of our customers, partners and third party service providers. Further, the effects of the ongoing conflict could heighten many of our known risks described in Part I, Item 1A, "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year ended June 30, 2021.

Risks Related to Acquisitions
We may fail to realize all of the anticipated benefits of the acquisition of Zix or those benefits may take longer to realize than expected
We may be required to devote significant management attention and resources to integrating the business practices and operations of OpenText and Zix. As we continue to integrate, we may experience disruptions to our business and, if implemented ineffectively, it could restrict the realization of the full expected benefits. The failure to meet the challenges involved in the integration process and to realize the anticipated benefits of the acquisition of Zix could cause an interruption of, or loss of momentum in, our operations and could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Furthermore, as we continue the integration of Zix, it may result in material unanticipated problems, expenses, charges, liabilities, competitive responses, loss of customers and other business relationships, and diversion of management’s attention. Additional integration challenges may include:
•Difficulties in achieving anticipated cost savings, synergies, business opportunities and growth prospects from the acquisition;
•Difficulties in the integration of operations and systems, including pricing and marketing strategies; and
•Difficulties in conforming standards, controls, procedures and accounting and other policies, business cultures and compensation structures.
Many of these factors will be outside of our control and any one of them could result in increased costs, including restructuring charges, decreases in the amount of expected revenues and diversion of management’s time and energy, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We may be unable to maintain or expand our base of SMB and consumer customers, which could adversely affect our anticipated future growth and operating results
With the acquisition of Carbonite and Zix, we have expanded our presence in the SMB market as well as the consumer market. Expanding in this market may require substantial resources and increased marketing efforts, different to what we are accustomed to. If we are unable to market and sell our solutions to the SMB market and consumers with competitive pricing and in a cost-effective manner, it may harm our ability to grow our revenues and adversely affect our results of operations. In addition, SMBs frequently have limited budgets and are more likely to be significantly affected by economic downturns than larger, more established companies. As such, SMBs may choose to spend funds on items other than our solutions, particularly during difficult economic times, which may hurt our projected revenues, business financial condition and results of operations.
