Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
1. ORGANIZATION
Maximus, a Virginia corporation established in 1975, is a leading operator of government health and human services programs and provider of technology solutions to governments. Under our mission of Moving People Forward, we offer industry-leading expertise, including citizen engagement, eligibility and program integrity, independent clinical assessments, case management, and technology modernization services to enable citizens around the globe to successfully engage with their governments at all levels. We are a proud partner to government agencies in the United States, Australia, Canada, Italy, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, South Korea, Sweden, United Arab Emirates, and the United Kingdom.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements, including the notes, include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("U.S. GAAP"), and the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Basis of Presentation for Interim Periods
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included for the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted for the interim periods presented. We believe that the unaudited interim financial statements include all adjustments (which are normal and recurring in nature) necessary to present fairly our financial position and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.
The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the year or future periods. The financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended September 30, 2022 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year then ended (the "2022 10-K"). We have continued to follow the accounting policies set forth in those financial statements.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of these financial statements, in conformity with U.S. GAAP, requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent liabilities, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses. At each reporting period end, we make estimates, including those related to revenue recognition and cost estimation on certain contracts, the realizability of goodwill, and amounts related to income taxes, certain accrued liabilities, and contingencies and litigation.
In May 2021, we acquired VES Group, Inc. As part of the acquisition, we allocated a valuation of $27 million to certain technology assets used by the business, which we elected to amortize over twelve years, which was our best estimate of asset life at that time. In fiscal year 2023, we have taken the opportunity to improve our technology portfolio, including the development of technology which will eventually replace much of the acquired technology. Accordingly, we have revised the asset life on the existing technology assuming the assets will cease being used by September 2026. This change in estimated useful life will result in additional annual amortization expense of $3.8 million per year. In the three months ended December 31, 2022, this change reduced our diluted earnings per share by approximately $0.01.

3. BUSINESS SEGMENTS
We conduct our operations through three business segments: U.S. Federal Services, U.S. Services, and Outside the U.S.
U.S. Federal Services
Our U.S. Federal Services Segment delivers end-to-end solutions that help various U.S. federal government agencies better deliver on their mission, including program operations and management, clinical services, and technology solutions. This also includes appeals and assessments services, system and application development, IT modernization, and maintenance services. The segment also contains certain state-based assessments and appeals work that is part of the segment's heritage which continues to be managed within this segment. Benefiting from the 2021 acquisition of the Attain Federal business, now managed as Technology Consulting Services, the segment executes on its digital strategy to deliver technology solutions that advance agency missions, including the challenge to modernize, provide better customer experience, and drive process efficiencies. The segment continues to expand its clinical solutions with the acquisition of VES Group, Inc., which manages the clinical evaluation process for U.S. veterans and service members on behalf of the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs.
U.S. Services
Our U.S. Services Segment provides a variety of business process services ("BPS"), such as program administration, assessments, and related consulting work for U.S. state and local government programs. These services support a variety of programs, including the Affordable Care Act ("ACA"), Medicaid, the Children's Health Insurance Program ("CHIP"), Temporary Assistance to Needy Families ("TANF"), and child support programs. As part of the government's COVID-19 response efforts, the segment supported contact tracing, disease investigation, and vaccine distribution support services during the peak of the pandemic. The segment also successfully expanded into the unemployment insurance market where longer term opportunities have materialized. As part of the broader strategy to evolve clinically and address societal macro trends such as aging populations and rising costs, the segment continues to expand its offerings in public health with new work in in-person assessments.
Outside the U.S.
Our Outside the U.S. Segment provides BPS for international governments and commercial clients, transforming the lives of people around the world. Helping people find employment, access vital support, and remain healthy, these services include health and disability assessments, program administration for employment services, wellbeing solutions, and other job seeker-related services. We support programs and deliver services in the U.K., including the Health Assessment Advisory Service ("HAAS") and Restart; Australia, including Workforce Australia and the Disability Employment Service; Canada, including the Employment Program of British Columbia; in addition to Italy, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, South Korea, Sweden, and UAE where we predominantly provide employment support and job seeker services.

4. REVENUE RECOGNITION
We recognize revenue as, or when, we satisfy performance obligations under a contract. The majority of our contracts have performance obligations that are satisfied over time. In most cases, we view our performance obligations as promises to transfer a series of distinct services to our customers that are substantially the same and which have the same pattern of service. We recognize revenue over the performance period as a customer receives the benefits of our services.
Disaggregation of Revenue
In addition to our segment reporting, we disaggregate our revenues by contract type and customer type. Our operating segments represent the manner in which our Chief Executive Officer reviews our financial results, which is further discussed in "Note 3. Business Segments."

Total revenue | $ | 1,249,246 |  |  |  |  | $ | 1,150,876 |  |  |

Contract balances
Differences in timing between revenue recognition and cash collection result in contract assets and contract liabilities. We classify these assets as accounts receivable — billed and billable and unbilled receivables; the liabilities are classified as deferred revenue.
In many contracts, we bill our customers on a monthly basis shortly after the month end for work performed in that month and such balances are considered collectible and are included within accounts receivable, net.
Exceptions to this pattern will arise for various reasons, including those listed below.
•Under cost-plus contracts, we are typically required to estimate a contract's share of our general and administrative expenses. This share is based upon estimates of total costs, which may vary over time. We typically invoice our customers at an agreed provisional billing rate which may differ from actual rates incurred. If our actual rates are higher than the provisional billing rates, an asset is recorded for this variance; if the provisional billing rates are higher than our actual rates, we record a liability.
•Certain contracts include retainage balances, whereby revenue is earned, but some portion of cash payments are held back by the customer for a period of time, typically to allow the customer to confirm the objective criteria laid out by the contract have been met. This balance is classified as accounts receivable - unbilled until restrictions on billing are lifted. As of December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2022, $19.0 million and $13.1 million, respectively, of our unbilled receivables related to amounts pursuant to contractual retainage provisions.

Table of Contents
•In certain contracts, we may receive funds from our customers prior to performing operations. These funds are typically referred to as "set-up costs" and reflect the need for us to make investments in infrastructure prior to providing a service. This investment in infrastructure is not a performance obligation that is distinct from the service that is subsequently provided and, as a result, revenue is not recognized based upon the establishment of this infrastructure, but rather over the course of the contractual relationship. The funds are initially recorded as deferred revenue and recognized over the term of the contract. Other contracts may not include set-up fees but will provide higher fees in earlier periods of the contract. The premium on these fees is deferred.
•Some of our contracts, notably our employment services contracts in the Outside the U.S. Segment, include payments for desired outcomes, such as job placement and job retention, and these outcome payments occur over several months. We are required to estimate these outcome fees ahead of their realization and recognize this estimated fee over the period of delivery.
During the three months ended December 31, 2022, we recognized revenue of $51.1 million included in our deferred revenue balances at September 30, 2022. During the three months ended December 31, 2021, we recognized revenue of $41.2 million included in our deferred revenue balances at September 30, 2021.
Contract estimates
We are required to use estimates in recognizing revenue from some of our contracts.
Some of our performance-based contract revenue is recognized based upon future outcomes defined in each contract. This is the case in many of our employment services contracts in the Outside the U.S. Segment, where we are paid as individuals attain employment goals, which may take many months to achieve. We recognize revenue on these contracts over the period of performance. Our estimates vary from contract to contract but may include estimates of the number of participants, the length of the contract, and the participants reaching employment milestones. We are required to estimate these outcome fees ahead of their collection and recognize this estimated fee over the period of delivery.
Changes to our estimates are recognized on a cumulative catch-up basis. For the three months ended December 31, 2022, there was no material effect on revenue or diluted earnings per share from changes in estimates. The corresponding change for the three months ended December 31, 2021 was a reduction to revenue and diluted earnings per share of $4.7 million and $0.05, respectively.
Remaining performance obligations
As of December 31, 2022, we had approximately $425 million of remaining performance obligations. We anticipate that we will recognize revenue on approximately 60% of this balance within the next 12 months. This balance excludes contracts with an original duration of twelve months or less, including contracts with a penalty-free termination for convenience clause, and any variable consideration which is allocated entirely to future performance obligations, including variable transaction fees or fees tied directly to costs incurred.

We entered into a credit agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. in May 2021 comprised of Term Loan A, Term Loan B, and a $600.0 million revolving credit facility ("Revolver"). During the first quarter of fiscal year 2023, we converted our interest rate index from the London Interbank Overnight Rate ("LIBOR") to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR").
The Credit Agreement requires us to comply with a number of covenants, including leverage and interest coverage ratios. At December 31, 2022, we are in compliance with all covenants. We do not believe that the covenants represent a significant restriction on our ability to successfully operate the business or to pay dividends.
In addition to the corporate Credit Agreement, we hold smaller credit facilities in Australia, Canada, and the United Kingdom. These allow our businesses to borrow funds to meet any short-term working capital needs.
The following table sets forth future minimum principal payments due under our debt obligations as of December 31, 2022 for the remainder of fiscal year 2023 through fiscal year 2027 and thereafter:

Interest Rate Derivative Instruments
To reduce our interest rate credit risk, we entered into interest-rate swap agreements covering $500 million of our Term Loan A, effectively setting a fixed rate for a portion of our debt. The balance of the debt pays interest based upon an index. The floating interest rate on these instruments was converted from LIBOR to SOFR in December 2022, concurrent with our debt agreements. In converting our debt and interest-rate swaps, we utilized the practical expedients allowed under ASU No. 2020-04 Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, which allowed us to treat these amendments as though the modification was not substantial. At December 31, 2022, our effective interest rate, including the original issuance costs and discount rate, was 6.0%.
Our interest-rate swap agreements expire in May 2026, concurrently with the Term Loan A maturity. As of December 31, 2022, we had an asset of $29.0 million and a liability of $2.7 million, compared to an asset of $31.4 million as of September 30, 2022. These balances were recorded in "other assets" and "other liabilities", respectively, on our consolidated balance sheet. As these hedges are considered effective, all gains and losses are reported within accumulated other comprehensive income on our consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

7. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The following assets and liabilities are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis.
•We hold mutual fund assets within a Rabbi Trust to cover liabilities in our deferred compensation plan. These assets have prices quoted within active markets and, accordingly, are classified as level 1 within the fair value hierarchy.
•We have two interest rate swap agreements, serving to reduce our interest rate risk on our debt. These assets and liabilities can be valued using observable data and, accordingly, are classified as level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.
•We anticipate paying additional consideration for certain acquisitions based upon the subsequent performance of the businesses acquired. This liability is based upon our internal assumptions over revenues, margins, volumes, and contract terms. Accordingly, these inputs are not observable and are classified as level 3 within the fair value hierarchy.
The tables below present assets and liabilities measured and recorded at fair value in our consolidated balance sheets on a recurring basis and their corresponding level within the fair value hierarchy. No transfers between Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 fair value measurements occurred for the three months ended December 31, 2022.

The fair values of receivables, prepaids, other assets, accounts payable, accrued costs, and other current liabilities approximate the carrying values as a result of the short-term nature of these instruments. The carrying value of our debt is consistent with the fair value as the stated interest rates in the agreements are consistent with the current market rates used in notes with similar terms in the markets (Level 2 inputs).

Contingent Consideration
The fair value of our contingent considerations are based upon estimates of the likely payments, which are based upon assumptions over future performance. The liabilities are reviewed on a quarterly basis and, where changes in estimates arise, these are recorded to selling and general administrative expenses.
Our contingent consideration relates to the businesses below:
•In October 2021, we acquired the student loan servicing business from Navient, rebranded as Aidvantage. Future payments are based upon volumes, up to a maximum payment of $65.0 million. At December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2022, the Aidvantage contingent consideration was $14.0 million and $13.8 million, respectively.
•In January 2022, we acquired BZ Bodies Limited. Future payments are based upon the performance of the business through December 2023, up to a maximum payment of $2.4 million (£2.0 million British Pounds). At December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2022, we recorded a contingent consideration liability for the maximum payment, which we anticipate making in fiscal year 2024.
•In December 2015, we acquired companies doing business as Assessments Australia. Future payments were based upon future revenue earnings. The deadline for the payment expired on December 31, 2022, with no payment being required.
Movement in our contingent consideration balance is as follows:

8. EQUITY
Stock Compensation
We grant restricted stock units ("RSUs") and performance stock units ("PSUs") to eligible participants under our 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan, which was approved by the Board of Directors and stockholders. The RSUs granted to employees vest ratably over three to five years and one year for members of the board of directors, in each case from the grant date. PSU vesting is subject to the achievement of certain performance and market conditions and the number of PSUs earned could vary from 0% to 200% of the number of PSUs awarded. The PSUs will vest at the end of a three year-performance period. We issue new shares to satisfy our obligations under these plans. The fair value of each RSU and PSU is calculated at the date of the grant.
During the three months ended December 31, 2022, we issued approximately 308,000 RSUs, which will vest ratably over three to four years, and approximately 137,000 PSUs, which will vest after three years.

At December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2022, this balance includes $52.3 million and $60.7 million, respectively, of funds received from a customer which had previously been sold under our Receivables Purchase Agreement; this is offset by a corresponding liability in "Other current liabilities". The majority of the remaining balance are funds held in trust on behalf of certain clients; this asset is similarly offset with a corresponding liability in "Other current liabilities".

In September 2022, we entered into a Receivables Purchase Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank N.A., under which we may sell certain US-originated accounts receivable balances up to a maximum amount of $110.0 million at any given time. In return for these sales, we receive a cash payment equal to the face value of the receivables less a financing charge.
We account for these transfers as sales. We have no retained interest in the transferred receivables other than administrative responsibilities, and Wells Fargo has no recourse for any credit risk. We estimate that the implicit servicing fees for an arrangement of this size and type would be immaterial.
For the three months ended December 31, 2022, the gross fair value of accounts receivables transferred to Wells Fargo and derecognized from our balance sheet was $209.6 million. In exchange for these sales, we received $208.5 million of cash. The balance, representing a loss on sale from these transfers, is included within our selling, general and administrative expenses. We have recorded these transactions within our operating cash flows. The effective annual interest rate under this program was 4.8%.

10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Litigation
We are subject to audits, investigations, and reviews relating to compliance with the laws and regulations that govern our role as a contractor to agencies and departments of federal, state, local, and foreign governments, and otherwise in connection with performing services in countries outside of the U.S. Adverse findings could lead to criminal, civil, or administrative proceedings, and we could be faced with penalties, fines, suspension, or debarment. Adverse findings could also have a material adverse effect on us because of our reliance on government contracts. We are subject to periodic audits by federal, state, local, and foreign governments for taxes. We are also involved in various claims, arbitrations, and lawsuits arising in the normal conduct of our business. These include but are not limited to bid protests, employment matters, contractual disputes, and charges before administrative agencies. Although we can give no assurance, based upon our evaluation and taking into account the advice of legal counsel, we do not believe that the outcome of any existing matter would likely have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
We evaluate, on a regular basis, developments in our litigation matters and establish or make adjustments to our accruals as appropriate. A liability is accrued if a loss is probable and the amount of such loss can be reasonably estimated. If the risk of loss is probable, but the amount cannot be reasonably estimated, or the risk of loss is only reasonably possible, a liability is not accrued. Due to the inherent uncertainty in the outcome of litigation, our estimates and assessments may prove to be incomplete or inaccurate and could be impacted by unanticipated events and circumstances, adverse outcomes or other future determinations.
Arizona Medicaid claims
From 2004 through 2009, we had a contract with the Arizona Health Care Cost Containment System (AHCCCS) in support of the state’s school-based Medicaid claims. We assisted local school districts with preparing and submitting claims to AHCCCS which, in turn, submitted claims for reimbursement to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS).
CMS subsequently asserted two disallowances against AHCCCS. AHCCCS contested the first disallowance and ultimately settled that claim with CMS. The second disallowance of approximately $19.9 million was being contested by AHCCCS in court. AHCCCS previously asserted that its agreement with us required us to reimburse AHCCCS for the amounts owed to CMS and, on October 18, 2022, AHCCCS sued Maximus pertaining to the first disallowance - Snyder v. Maximus, Case No. CV2022-053302, Superior Court for the County of Maricopa. AHCCCS sought damages from us of $5.4 million. In December 2022, Maximus and AHCCCS agreed to settle both the lawsuit pertaining to the first disallowance and any assertions by AHCCCS pertaining to the second disallowance. The amount of the settlement had previously been accrued by the company. We exited the federal healthcare-claiming business in 2009 and no longer provide the services at issue in this matter.
11. SUBSEQUENT EVENT
On January 6, 2023, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.28 for each share of our common stock outstanding. The dividend is payable on February 28, 2023, to shareholders of record on February 15, 2023. Based upon the number of shares outstanding, we anticipate a cash payment of approximately $17.1 million.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion is intended to help the reader understand our business, financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and capital resources. You should read this discussion in conjunction with "Risk Factors," "Forward-Looking Statements," and our financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year 2022 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 22, 2022 (the "2022 Form 10-K") and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as applicable.
Business Overview
We are a global company with approximately 39,500 employees and 12,550 contingent workers dedicated to helping governments on four continents to administer their citizen-facing programs. Under our mission of Moving People Forward, we offer industry-leading expertise, including citizen engagement, eligibility and program integrity, independent clinical assessments and case management, and technology modernization services to enable citizens around the globe to successfully engage with their governments at all levels. We are instrumental in helping people who need governmental support get it.
Over the past five years, we have executed a three-pronged growth strategy: we have evolved through our digital transformation to meet the modernization needs of our clients; we have expanded our clinical assessment capabilities to meet growing demand for independent and conflict-free clinical services; and we have expanded our markets, both organically and through acquisitions.
In fiscal year 2022, we refreshed our strategy and updated the three pillars on which we will focus growth efforts for the next three to five years:
•Customer Services, Digitally Enabled. We apply proven technologies, data, and best practices to make government programs more customer-focused, effective, and deserving of the public's trust. We make it easier for people to connect to government services based on their individual preferences and abilities. We are elevating the customer experience to achieve higher levels of satisfaction, performance, and outcomes through intelligent automation and cognitive computing.
•Future of Health. We are expanding our clinical-related services and are experienced at delivering clinical BPS services at scale. We have established an extensive set of services that frequently requires a network of healthcare professionals who can complete clinical assessments, provide occupational health and independent medical review services, and adjudicate complicated benefits appeals. With the formation of Maximus Public Health ("MPH"), we are able to serve as a resource to governments as they respond to public health threats and address lessons learned from the global pandemic.
•Advanced Technologies for Modernization. We are furthering our credibility as a technology leader, enabling the transformation of government programs to be resilient, dynamic, integrated, and equitable. Leveraging our deep relationships and program knowledge, we are delivering technology-driven business transformation of government missions with a strategic near-term focus on hybrid cloud solutions, information intelligence, and hyper-automation.

Financial Overview
A number of factors have affected our results for the first quarter of fiscal year 2023, the most significant of which we have listed below. More detail on these changes is presented below within our "Results of Operations" section.
•Our results have been tempered by the strength of the United States Dollar compared to the other currencies in which we do business.
•Although we have reported growth in all three segments, our profit margins within the United States in our current year are lower than in prior years. The end of short-term pandemic-related work, which had higher margins, is the principal driver.
•Our work in both periods has been affected by the ongoing public health emergency. Our results in future periods are expected to receive the benefit of increases in transaction-based work which was reduced or suspended as a result of the pandemic.
•The cost of financing our debt has increased year-over-year as interest rates have increased.

Our business segments have different factors driving revenue fluctuations and profitability. The sections that follow cover these segments in greater detail. Our revenue reflects fees earned for services provided. Cost of revenue consists of direct costs related to labor and related overhead, subcontractor labor, outside vendors, rent, and other direct costs. The largest component of cost of revenue, approximately two-thirds, is labor, including subcontracted labor.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses ("SG&A")
Selling, general, and administrative expenses ("SG&A") consist of indirect costs related to general management, marketing, and administration. It is primarily composed of labor costs. These costs may be incurred at a segment level, for dedicated resources that are not client-facing, or at a corporate level. Corporate costs are allocated to segments on a consistent and rational basis. Fluctuations in our SG&A are primarily driven by changes in our administrative cost base, which is not directly driven by changes in our revenue. As part of our work for the U.S. federal government and many states, we allocate these costs using a methodology driven by the U.S. Federal Cost Accounting Standards.
Our SG&A expense has increased year-over-year primarily driven by growth in our business, including additional spending in anticipation of future work, and approximately $6.5 million related to severance programs anticipated to reduce costs in future periods.
Interest Expense
Our interest expense increased from $9.6 million in the first quarter of fiscal year 2022 to $21.6 million in the first quarter of fiscal year 2023, principally driven by increases in our interest rate. Our effective interest rate at December 31, 2022 was 6.0%, compared to 2.3% at December 31, 2021. We have mitigated our risk by fixing interest rates on $500 million of our debt and our near term capital allocation plan continues to prioritize reducing our debt using our free cash flow.
Provision for Income Taxes
Our effective income tax rate for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, was 25.2 % and 25.5 %, respectively. For fiscal year 2023, we expect the effective tax rate to be between 24.5% and 25.5%.
U.S. Federal Services Segment
Our U.S. Federal Services Segment delivers end-to-end solutions that help various U.S. federal government agencies better deliver on their mission, including program operations and management, clinical services, and technology solutions. This also includes appeals and assessments services, system and application development, IT modernization, and maintenance services. The segment also contains certain state-based assessments and appeals work that is part of the segment's heritage which continues to be managed within this segment. Benefiting from the 2021 acquisition of the Attain Federal business, now managed as Technology Consulting Services, the segment executes on its digital strategy to deliver technology solutions that advance agency missions, including the challenge to modernize, provide better customer experience, and drive process efficiencies. The segment continues to expand its clinical solutions with the acquisition of VES Group, Inc., which manages the clinical evaluation process for U.S. veterans and service members on behalf of the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs.

Our revenue and cost of revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2022, increased 6.2% and 8.8%, respectively. All growth in fiscal year 2023 was organic and net of anticipated declines in short-term work related to the pandemic.
Our U.S. Federal Services business grew from higher volumes in clinical services due, in part, to new wins and from the expansion of a large, cost-plus contract. As is typically the case, such contracts record lower margins than transaction-based work. Fiscal year 2022 also received some benefit from short-term, higher-margin work related to the pandemic.
We anticipate that our U.S. Federal Services business will continue to grow in fiscal year 2023, driven primarily by additional volumes anticipated in the VES business. We anticipate operating margins will range between 10% and 11%.
U.S. Services Segment
Our U.S. Services Segment provides a variety of business process services ("BPS"), such as program administration, assessments, and related consulting work for U.S. state and local government programs. These services support a variety of programs, including the Affordable Care Act ("ACA"), Medicaid, the Children's Health Insurance Program ("CHIP"), Temporary Assistance to Needy Families ("TANF"), and child support programs. As part of the government's COVID-19 response efforts, the segment supported contact tracing, disease investigation, and vaccine distribution support services during the peak of the pandemic. The segment also successfully expanded into the unemployment insurance market where longer term opportunities have materialized. As part of the broader strategy to evolve clinically and address societal macro trends such as aging populations and rising costs, the segment continues to expand its offerings in public health with new work in in-person assessments.

Our revenue and cost of revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2022, increased 13.7% and 19.9%, respectively, compared to three months ended December 31, 2021. All movement was organic and net of anticipated declines in short-term work related to the pandemic.
New business has increased revenue but margins remain tempered as the short-term, pandemic-related work from prior years has declined.

This segment is expected to see the greater benefit from the resumption of Medicaid eligibility redeterminations, following passage of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2023 (the omnibus spending bill) which decouples redeterminations from the end of the Public Health Emergency (PHE). Subsequent to the passage of the omnibus spending bill, President Biden on January 30, 2023 announced plans to end the existing PHE and national emergency declarations on May 11, 2023. While this will impact areas of healthcare delivery such as COVID testing, treatment and telemedicine, the decoupling of Medicaid redeterminations under the omnibus spending bill effectively superseded this decision by the administration. The nature and timing of the benefit will be dependent upon how the states coordinate the return of these services, but we anticipate that services will commence during our third fiscal quarter, with a greater contribution in the final quarter of the year. We anticipate a full year operating profit margin will be between 9% and 11%.
Outside the U.S. Segment
Our Outside the U.S. Segment provides BPS for international governments and commercial clients, transforming the lives of people around the world. Helping people find employment, access vital support, and remain healthy, these services include health and disability assessments, program administration for employment services, wellbeing solutions, and other job seeker related services. We support programs and deliver services in the U.K., including the Health Assessment Advisory Service ("HAAS") and Restart; Australia, including Workforce Australia (formerly jobactive) and the Disability Employment Service; Canada, including the Employment Program of British Columbia; in addition to Italy, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, South Korea, Sweden, and UAE, where we predominantly provide employment support and job seeker services.

This segment experienced significant organic revenue growth with stable costs. This benefit was partially offset by significant declines in the value of international currencies against the United States Dollar.
Our organic revenue growth is principally driven by the United Kingdom Restart contract, which is now at full capacity; our margins in fiscal year 2022 were tempered as the Restart contract was still ramping up. Within our Australian business, we have taken steps to reduce costs to reflect the decline in our work.

Table of Contents
Much of our revenue growth stems from our employment services contracts, where we are paid based upon our ability to place individuals in long-term sustained employment. As a result, changes in our estimates of our ability to place people in work and the time that this will take can have significant effects on our revenue. Our estimates are based upon historical performance, where appropriate and available, and are constantly updated. This segment also includes a large software implementation project where revenue is based upon estimates of our anticipated overall performance. Changes in this estimate are recorded upon as a cumulative adjustment to revenue. There were no significant adjustments in this fiscal quarter.
We anticipate our Outside the United States Segment will experience greater stability in fiscal year 2023, with less disruption from residual pandemic factors and underpinned by our core programs. We anticipate operating margins will range between 3% and 7% for the full fiscal year.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our primary sources of liquidity are cash on hand, cash from operations, and availability under our revolving credit facilities. As of December 31, 2022, we had $63.1 million in cash and cash equivalents. We believe that our current cash position, access to our revolving debt, and cash flow generated from operations should be not only sufficient for our operating requirements but also to enable us to fund required long-term debt repayments, dividends and any share purchases we might choose to make. See "Note 6. Debt and Derivatives" to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a more detailed discussion of our debt financing arrangements.
During the first quarter of fiscal year 2023, we entered into a number of debt-related transactions.
•We entered into an additional interest rate swap, to bring the total balance of our credit facility subject to fixed rates to $500 million. This allows us greater opportunity to predict and manage our interest payments.
•We amended both our debt and the corresponding interest rate swaps to use interest rates based upon the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR), replacing the previous LIBOR basis. This transaction anticipates the phasing out of LIBOR rates in 2023.
•As part of the transition to SOFR, we took the opportunity to redeem some of our Term Loan B debt, which we repaid using our revolving credit facility.

Net Cash Used In Operating Activities
Net cash used in operating activities was $134.7 million in fiscal year 2023. Our first fiscal quarter is typically light for cash flow as collections often slow in December, bonus payments are made and, in recent years, we have paid deferred payroll taxes. The biggest driver of this decline was due to strong collections experienced in the fourth quarter of last year, followed by delays in December. Our Days Sales Outstanding ("DSO") at September 30, 2022 was 62 days; the corresponding DSO at December 31, 2022 was 74 days. We anticipate improved collections through the remainder of the year; by the end of January we had already received sufficient funds to pay down approximately $75 million of revolving debt. Operating cash flows were also affected by increases in the costs of servicing our debt, owing to rising interest rates.
Net Cash Used In Investing Activities
Investing activities in fiscal years 2023 and 2022 reflect acquisitions of property and equipment and investment in software.

Table of Contents
Net Cash Provided By Financing Activities
Our net borrowings on our credit agreement correspond with the slow payments received this quarter.
At September 30, 2022, our restricted cash balance was inflated by a large customer receivable of $60.4 million, which was paid to us after we had sold the balance to a third party, resulting in a financing cash inflow. At December 2022, a similar event arose for a sum of $52.3 million. Absent further transactions, we anticipate a financing cash outflow of $52.3 million related to this cash balance at March 31, 2023.
Cash in Foreign Locations
We have no requirement to remit funds from our foreign locations to the United States. We will continue to explore opportunities to remit additional funds, taking into consideration the working capital requirements and relevant tax rules in each jurisdiction. When we are unable to remit funds back without incurring a penalty, we will consider these funds indefinitely reinvested until such time as these restrictions are changed. As a result, we do not record U.S. deferred income taxes on any funds held in foreign jurisdictions. We have not attempted to calculate our potential liability from any transfer of these funds, as any such transaction might include tax planning strategies that we have not fully explored. Accordingly, it is not possible to estimate the potential tax obligations if we were to remit all of our funds from foreign locations to the United States.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. requires us to make estimates, judgments, and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The 2022 Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC on November 22, 2022, includes a summary of critical accounting policies we believe are the most important to aid in understanding our financial results. There have been no changes to those critical accounting policies that have had a material impact on our reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, or expenses during the three months ended December 31, 2022.

Non-GAAP and Other Measures
We utilize non-GAAP measures where we believe it will assist users of our financial statements in understanding our business. The presentation of these measures is meant to complement, but not replace, other financial measures in this document. The presentation of non-GAAP numbers is not meant to be considered in isolation, nor as an alternative to revenue growth, cash flows from operating activities, net income, or earnings per share as measures of performance. These non-GAAP measures, as determined and presented by us, may not be comparable to related or similarly titled measures presented by other companies.
For the three months ended December 31, 2022, 15% of our revenue was generated outside the U.S. We believe that users of our financial statements wish to understand the performance of our foreign operations using a methodology that excludes the effect of year-over-year exchange rate fluctuations. To calculate year-over-year currency movement, we determine the current fiscal year's results for all foreign businesses using the exchange rates in the prior fiscal year.
In recent years, we have made a number of acquisitions. We believe users of our financial statements wish to evaluate the performance of our operations, excluding changes that have arisen due to businesses acquired or disposed of. We identify acquired revenue and cost of revenue by showing these results for periods for which no comparative results exist within our financial statements. We identify revenue and cost of revenue that has been disposed of in a similar manner. This information is supplemented by our calculations of organic growth. To calculate organic growth, we compare current fiscal year results excluding transactions from acquisitions or disposals, to our prior fiscal year results.
Our recent acquisitions have resulted in significant intangible assets which are amortized over their estimated useful lives. We believe users of our financial statements wish to understand the performance of the business by using a methodology that excludes the amortization of our intangible assets. Accordingly, we have calculated our operating profit, net income, and earnings per share, excluding the effect of the amortization of intangible assets. We have included the following table showing our reconciliation of these income measures to their corresponding U.S. GAAP measures.

In order to sustain our cash flows from operations, we regularly refresh our fixed assets and technology. We believe that users of our financial statements wish to understand the cash flows that directly correspond with our operations and the investments we must make in those operations using a methodology that combines operating cash flows and capital expenditures. We provide free cash flow to complement our statement of cash flows. Free cash flow shows the effects of our operations and replacement capital expenditures and excludes the cash flow effects of acquisitions, purchases of our common stock, dividend payments, and other financing transactions. We have provided a reconciliation of cash flows from operations to free cash flow in "Liquidity and Capital Resources."

Table of Contents
To sustain our operations, our principal source of financing comes from receiving payments from our customers. We believe that users of our financial statements wish to evaluate our efficiency in converting revenue into cash receipts. Accordingly, we provide DSO, which we calculate by dividing billed and unbilled receivable balances at the end of each quarter by revenue per day for the period. Revenue per day for a quarter is determined by dividing total revenue by 91 days.
Our Credit Agreement includes the defined term Consolidated EBITDA and our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA conforms to the Credit Agreement. We believe our investors appreciate the opportunity to understand the possible restrictions which arise from our Credit Agreement.
•Adjusted EBITDA is also a useful measure of performance that focuses on the cash generating capacity of the business as it excludes the non-cash expenses of depreciation and amortization, and makes for easier comparisons between the operating performance of companies with different capital structures by excluding interest expense and therefore, the impacts of financing costs.
•The measure of Adjusted EBITA is a step in calculating Adjusted EBITDA and facilitates comparisons to similar businesses as it isolates the amortization effect of business combinations.
•The Credit Agreement requires us to adjust for unusual, non-recurring expenses, certain non-cash adjustments and estimated synergies from acquisitions.
We have provided a reconciliation from net income to Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITA, Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA, and Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA per our Credit Agreement, as shown below.
