NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Selected Terms Used in Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
ASA – Administrative Service Agreement
ASC – Accounting Standards Codification
ASU – Accounting Standards Update
CECL– Current expected credit losses
CPA firm – Certified Public Accounting firm
FASB – The Financial Accounting Standards Board
GAAP – United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles
LIBOR – London Interbank Offered Rate
SEC – United States Securities and Exchange Commission
Description of Business: CBIZ, Inc. is a diversified services company which, acting through its subsidiaries, has been providing professional business services since 1996, primarily to small and medium-sized businesses, as well as individuals, governmental entities, and not-for-profit enterprises throughout the United States and parts of Canada. CBIZ, Inc. manages and reports its operations along three practice groups: Financial Services, Benefits and Insurance Services and National Practices. A further description of products and services offered by each of the practice groups is provided in Note 12, Segment Disclosures, to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.
Basis of Consolidation: The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the operations of CBIZ, Inc. and all of its wholly-owned subsidiaries (“CBIZ”, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, or “our”), after elimination of all intercompany balances and transactions. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not reflect the operations or accounts of variable interest entities as the impact is not material to the financial condition, results of operations or cash flows of CBIZ.
Unaudited Interim Financial Statements: The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and applicable rules and regulations of the SEC regarding interim financial reporting. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. As such, the information included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020.
In the opinion of CBIZ management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows for the interim periods presented, but are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be anticipated for the full year ending December 31, 2021.
Use of Estimates: The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the financial statements and the accompanying notes. Changes in circumstances could cause actual results to differ materially from these estimates.
Changes in Accounting Policies: We have consistently applied the accounting policies for the periods presented as described in Note 1, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies, to the consolidated financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020.

NOTE 2. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
The FASB ASC is the sole source of authoritative GAAP other than the SEC issued rules and regulations that apply only to SEC registrants. The FASB issues an accounting standard to communicate changes to the FASB codification. We assess and review the impact of all accounting standards. Any accounting standards not listed below were reviewed and determined to be either not applicable or are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.
Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet Adopted
Reference Rate Reform: In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, which provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The amendments in this ASU are effective for all entities through December 31, 2022. We are currently evaluating the effect of this new standard on our consolidated financial statements and have not adopted any of the transition relief available under the new guidance as of June 30, 2021.
Subsequently, in January 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope, which provides optional temporary guidance for entities transitioning away from the LIBOR and other interbank offered rates to new reference rates so that derivatives affected by the discounting transition are explicitly eligible for certain optional expedients and exceptions within Topic 848. This ASU clarifies that the derivative instruments affected by the discounting transition are explicitly eligible for certain optional expedients and exceptions provided in Topic 848. ASU 2021-01 is effective immediately for all entities. Entities may elect to apply the amendments on a full retrospective basis as of any date from the beginning of an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020, or on a prospective basis to new modifications from any date within an interim period that includes or is subsequent to the date of the issuance of a final update, up to the date that financial statements are available to be issued. The amendments provided in this ASU do not apply to contract modifications made, as well as new hedging relationships entered into, after December 31, 2022, and to existing hedging relationships evaluated for effectiveness for periods after December 31, 2022, except for certain hedging relationships existing as of December 31, 2022, that apply certain optional expedients in which the accounting effects are recorded through the end of the hedging relationship. We are currently evaluating the effect of this new standard on our consolidated financial statements and have not adopted any of the transition relief available under the new guidance as of June 30, 2021.
NOTE 3. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE, NET
Accounts receivable, less allowance for doubtful accounts, reflects the net realizable value of receivables and approximates fair value. Unbilled revenues are recorded at estimated net realizable value. Assessing the collectability of the receivables (billed and unbilled) requires management judgment based on a combination of factors, including but not limited to, an evaluation of our historical incurred loss experience, credit-worthiness of our clients, age of the trade receivable balance, current economic conditions that may affect a client’s ability to pay, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Receivables are charged-off against the allowance when the balance is deemed uncollectible.
Accounts receivable, net, at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 were as follows (in thousands):

| June 30, 2021 |  | December 31, 2020
Trade accounts receivable | $ | 213,251 |  |  | $ | 167,575 |
Unbilled revenue, at net realizable value | 93,950 |  |  | 63,494 |
Total accounts receivable | 307,201 |  |  | 231,069 |
Allowance for doubtful accounts | (14,705) |  |  | (14,894) |

NOTE 4. DEBT AND FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS
2018 Credit Facility - Our primary financing arrangement is the $400 million unsecured credit facility (the “2018 credit facility” or the “credit facility”), which provides us with the capital necessary to meet our working capital needs as well as the flexibility to continue with our strategic initiatives, including business acquisitions and share repurchases. The 2018 credit facility matures in 2023. The balance outstanding under the 2018 credit facility was $163.3 million and $108.0 million at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Effective interest rates, including the impact of interest rate swaps associated with the 2018 credit facility, were as follows:

| Six Months Ended June 30, |
| 2021 |  | 2020 |
Weighted average rates | 1.95% |  | 2.43% |
Range of effective rates | 1.06% - 3.64% |  | 1.11% - 4.75% |

We had approximately $233.4 million of available funds under the credit facility at June 30, 2021, net of outstanding letters of credit of $3.0 million. As of June 30, 2021, we were in compliance with our financial debt covenants.
Other Line of Credit - We have an unsecured $20.0 million line of credit by and among CBIZ Benefits and Insurance, Inc. and Huntington National Bank. We utilize this line to support our short-term funding requirements of payroll client fund obligations due to the investment of client funds, rather than liquidating client funds that have already been invested in available-for-sale securities. The line of credit, which was renewed on August 6, 2020 and will terminate on August 5, 2021, did not have a balance outstanding at June 30, 2021. We intend to renew this line of credit. Refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 for additional details of our debt and financing arrangements.
Interest Expense - Interest expense, including amortization of deferred financing costs, commitment fees, line of credit fees, and other applicable bank charges, was as follows (in thousands):

| Three Months Ended June 30, |
| 2021 |  | 2020 |
2018 credit facility | $ | 952 |  |  | $ | 2,056 |  |

NOTE 5. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Letters of Credit and Guarantees - We provide letters of credit to landlords (lessors) of our leased premises in lieu of cash security deposits, which totaled $3.0 million and $1.7 million at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. In addition, we provide license bonds to various state agencies to meet certain licensing requirements. The amount of license bonds outstanding was $2.3 million and $2.2 million at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.
Legal Proceedings - In 2010, CBIZ, Inc. and its subsidiary, CBIZ MHM, LLC (formerly, CBIZ Accounting, Tax & Advisory Services, LLC) (the “CBIZ Parties”), were named as defendants in lawsuits filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Arizona and the Superior Court for Maricopa County, Arizona. The federal court case is captioned Robert Facciola, et al v. Greenberg Traurig LLP, et al, and the state court cases are captioned Victims Recovery, LLC v. Greenberg Traurig LLP, et al, Roger Ashkenazi, et al v. Greenberg Traurig LLP, et al, Mary Marsh, et al v. Greenberg Traurig LLP, et al; and ML Liquidating Trust v. Mayer Hoffman McCann, P.C. (“Mayer Hoffman”), et al. Prior to these suits CBIZ MHM, LLC was named as a defendant in Jeffrey C. Stone v. Greenberg Traurig LLP, et al.
These lawsuits arose out of the bankruptcy of Mortgages Ltd., a mortgage lender to developers in the Phoenix, Arizona area. Various other professional firms and individuals not related to the Company were also named defendants in these lawsuits. The lawsuits asserted claims for, among others things, violations of the Arizona Securities Act, common law fraud, and negligent misrepresentation, and sought to hold the CBIZ Parties vicariously liable for Mayer Hoffman’s conduct as Mortgage Ltd.’s auditor, as either a statutory control person under the Arizona Securities Act or a joint venturer under Arizona common law.
With the exception of claims being pursued by two plaintiffs from the Ashkenazi lawsuit (“Baldino Group”), all other related matters have been dismissed or settled without payment by the CBIZ Parties. The Baldino Group’s claims, which allege damages of approximately $16.0 million, are currently pending, though no trial date has been set.
On December 19, 2016, CBIZ Operations, Inc. (“CBIZ Operations”) was named as a defendant in a lawsuit filed by Zotec Partners, LLC (“Zotec”) in the Marion County Indiana Superior Court. After various amendments, the lawsuit asserts claims under Indiana law for securities, statutory and common law fraud or deception, unjust enrichment, breach of contract, and vicarious liability against CBIZ Operations and a former employee of CBIZ MMP in connection with the sale of the CBIZ MMP medical billing practice to Zotec. The plaintiff claims that CBIZ Operations had a duty to disclose the fact, unknown to employees of CBIZ Operations at the time of the transaction, that the former employee had a financial arrangement with a Zotec vendor at the time CBIZ Operations sold CBIZ MMP to Zotec. The plaintiff is now seeking damages of up to $177.0 million out of the $200.0 million transaction price. Trial is scheduled for October 2021.
We cannot predict the outcome of the above matters or estimate the possible loss or range of possible loss, if any. Although the proceedings are subject to uncertainties inherent in the litigation process and the ultimate disposition of these proceedings is not presently determinable, we intend to vigorously defend these cases. In addition to those items disclosed above, we are, from time to time, subject to claims and lawsuits arising in the ordinary course of business.
On September 16, 2016, CBIZ, Inc. and its subsidiary CBIZ Benefits & Insurance Services, Inc. (“CBIZ Benefits”) were named as defendants in a lawsuit filed in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania. The federal court case is brought by UPMC, d/b/a University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, and a health system it acquired, UPMC Altoona (formerly, Altoona Regional Health System). The lawsuit asserted professional negligence, breach of contract, and negligent misrepresentation claims against CBIZ, CBIZ Benefits and a former employee of CBIZ Benefits in connection with actuarial services provided by CBIZ Benefits. On June 24, 2021, CBIZ settled the case with UPMC. Under the terms of the settlement, CBIZ will pay a total settlement amount of $41.5 million. As a result, we recorded a one-time settlement loss of $30.5 million in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.
NOTE 6. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Available-For-Sale Debt Securities - In connection with certain services provided by our payroll operations, we collect funds from our clients’ accounts in advance of paying client obligations. These
11

funds held for clients are segregated and invested in accordance with our investment policy, which requires all investments carry an investment grade rating at the time of initial investment. These investments, primarily consisting of corporate and municipal bonds, are classified as available-for-sale and are included in the “Funds held for clients” line item on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The par value of these investments totaled $24.8 million and $24.9 million at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, and had maturity or callable dates ranging from July 2021 through November 2025.
At June 30, 2021, unrealized losses on the securities were not material and have not been recognized as a credit loss because the bonds are investment grade quality and management is not required or does not intend to sell prior to an expected recovery in value. The bond issuers continue to make timely principal and interest payments.
The following table summarizes activities related to these investments for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and the twelve months ended December 31, 2020 (in thousands):

| Six Months Ended June 30, 2021 |  | Twelve Months Ended December 31, 2020 |
Fair value at beginning of period | $ | 25,708 |  |  | $ | 60,659 |  |
Purchases | 7,900 |  |  | 3,447 |  |
Sales | (5,550) |  |  | (22,078) |  |
Maturities and calls | (2,415) |  |  | (15,409) |  |
Change in bond premium | 591 |  |  | (857) |  |
Fair market value adjustment | (217) |  |  | (54) |  |
Fair value at end of period | $ | 26,017 |  |  | $ | 25,708 |  |

In addition to the available-for-sale debt securities discussed above, we also held other depository assets in the amount of $3.4 million. We did not have any depository items at December 31, 2020. Those depository assets are classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy.
Interest Rate Swaps - We utilize interest rate swaps to manage interest rate risk exposure associated with our floating-rate debt under the 2018 credit facility, or the forecasted acquisition of such liability. We do not purchase or hold any derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes. Refer to the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 for further discussion on our interest rate swaps.
During the first quarter of 2021, one interest rate swap expired with a notional value of $10.0 million. As of June 30, 2021, we have three interest rate swaps outstanding. Under the terms of the interest rate swaps, we pay interest at a fixed rate of interest plus applicable margin as stated in the agreement, and receive interest that varies with the one-month LIBOR. The notional value, fixed rate of interest and expiration date of each interest rate swap as of June 30, 2021 was (i) $20.0 million – 1.770% - May 2022, (ii) $15.0 million – 2.640% - June 2023 and (iii) $50.0 million - 0.885% - April 2025. Refer to Note 7, Fair Value Measurements, for additional disclosures regarding fair value measurements.
The following table summarizes our outstanding interest rate swaps and their classification in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 (in thousands):

| June 30, 2021
| Notional Amount |  | Fair Value |  | Balance Sheet Location
Interest rate swap | $ | 20,000 |  |  | $ | (292) |  |  | Other current liability

NOTE 7. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The following table summarizes our assets and (liabilities) at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis subsequent to initial recognition and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques utilized by us to determine such fair value (in thousands):

| Level |  | June 30, 2021 |  | December 31, 2020 |
Deferred compensation plan assets | 1 |  | $ | 142,330 |  |  | $ | 127,332 |  |
Available-for-sale debt securities | 1 |  | 26,017 |  |  | 25,708 |  |
Deferred compensation plan liabilities | 1 |  | (142,330) |  |  | (127,332) |  |
Interest rate swaps | 2 |  | (1,151) |  |  | (2,565) |  |
Contingent purchase price liabilities | 3 |  | (66,187) |  |  | (54,391) |  |

During the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, there were no transfers between the valuation hierarchy Levels 1, 2 and 3. The following table summarizes the change in Level 3 fair values of our contingent purchase price liabilities for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 (pre-tax basis) (in thousands):

| 2021 |  | 2020 |
Beginning balance – January 1 | $ | (54,391) |  |  | $ | (32,089) |  |
Additions from business acquisitions | (20,124) |  |  | (3,385) |  |
Settlement of contingent purchase price liabilities | 9,081 |  |  | 7,859 |  |
Change in fair value of contingencies | 17 |  |  | 497 |  |
Change in net present value of contingencies | (770) |  |  | (343) |  |
Ending balance – June 30 | $ | (66,187) |  |  | $ | (27,461) |  |

Contingent purchase price liabilities result from our business acquisitions and are recorded at fair value at the time of acquisition and are presented as “Contingent purchase price liabilities — current” and “Contingent purchase price liabilities — non-current” in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. We estimate the fair value of our contingent purchase price liabilities using a probability-weighted discounted cash flow model. This fair value measure is based on significant inputs not observed in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement. Fair value measurements characterized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy are measured based on unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and reflect our own assumptions in measuring fair value.
We probability weight risk-adjusted estimates of future performance of acquired businesses, then calculate the contingent purchase price based on the estimates and discount them to present value representing management’s best estimate of fair value. The fair value of the contingent purchase price liabilities is reassessed quarterly based on assumptions provided by practice group leaders and
13

business unit controllers together with our corporate finance department. Any change in the fair value estimate is recorded in the earnings of that period. Refer to Note 11, Business Combinations, for further discussion of our acquisitions and contingent purchase price liabilities.
The carrying amounts of our cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments, and the carrying value of bank debt approximates fair value as the interest rate on the bank debt is variable and approximates current market rates. As a result, the fair value measurement of our bank debt is considered to be Level 2.
NOTE 8. OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS)
The following table is a summary of other comprehensive income (loss) and discloses the tax impact of each component of other comprehensive income (loss) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 (in thousands):

NOTE 9. EMPLOYEE STOCK PLANS
The 2019 Stock Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2019 Plan”), which expires in 2029, permits the grant of various forms of stock-based awards. The terms and vesting schedules for the stock-based awards vary by type and date of grant. A maximum of 3.1 million stock options, restricted stock or other stock-based compensation awards may be granted. Shares subject to award under the 2019 Plan may be either authorized but unissued shares of our common stock or treasury shares. Refer to the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 for further discussion on the 2019 Plan.

(1)Represents weighted average market value of the shares; awards are granted at no cost to the recipients.
Performance Share Units (“PSUs”) – PSUs are earned based on our financial performance over a contractual term of three years and the associated expense is recognized over that period based on the fair value of the award. A three-year cliff vesting schedule of the PSUs is dependent upon the Company’s performance relative to pre-established goals based on an earnings per share target (weighted 70%) and total growth in revenue (weighted 30%). The fair value of PSUs is calculated using the market value of a share of our common stock on the date of grant. For performance achieved above specified levels, the recipient may earn additional shares of stock, not to exceed 200% of the number of PSUs initially granted.
The following table presents our PSU award activity during the six months ended June 30, 2021 (in thousands, except per share data):

| Performance Share Units |  | Weighted Average Grant-Date Fair Value Per Unit (1) |

NOTE 10. EARNINGS PER SHARE
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 (in thousands, except per share data).

| Three Months Ended June 30, |  | Six Months Ended June 30, |
| 2021 |  | 2020 |  | 2021 |  | 2020 |
Numerator: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Income from continuing operations | $ | 8,613 |  |  | $ | 21,479 |  |  | $ | 58,829 |  |  | $ | 58,341 |  |

Weighted average common shares outstanding | 52,874 |  |  | 54,142 |  |  | 53,119 |  |  | 54,356 |  |
Diluted |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Stock options (1) | 676 |  |  | 760 |  |  | 733 |  |  | 869 |  |

Contingent shares (2) | 37 |  |  | 68 |  |  | 37 |  |  | 68 |  |
Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding (3) | 53,769 |  |  | 55,116 |  |  | 54,109 |  |  | 55,515 |  |
Basic earnings per share from continuing operations | $ | 0.16 |  |  | $ | 0.40 |  |  | $ | 1.11 |  |  | $ | 1.07 |  |
Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations | $ | 0.16 |  |  | $ | 0.39 |  |  | $ | 1.09 |  |  | $ | 1.05 |  |

(1)A total of 5 thousand stock-based awards were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the six months ended June 30, 2021. We didn't exclude any stock-based awards from the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the three months ended June 30, 2021, as their effect was dilutive. A total of 400 thousand and 400 thousand stock-based awards were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, as their effect would be anti-dilutive.
(2)Contingent shares represent additional shares to be issued for purchase price earned by former owners of businesses acquired by us once future considerations have been met. Refer to Note 11, Business Combinations, for further details.
(3)The denominator used in calculating diluted earnings per share did not include 447 thousand performance share units for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, and the denominator used in calculating diluted earnings per share did not include 324 thousand performance share units for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. The performance conditions associated with these performance share units were not met and consequently none of these performance share units were considered as issuable for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.

Aggregated annualized revenue is estimated to be approximately $41.9 million and $6.1 million from the aforementioned 2021 and 2020 acquisitions, respectively. Aggregated annualized income before tax is estimated to be approximately $6.1 million and $1.5 million from the aforementioned 2021 and 2020 acquisitions, respectively. Pro forma results of operations for these acquisitions have not been presented because the effects of these acquisitions were not material, either individually or in aggregate, to our total revenue, income from continuing operations, and net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
The following table summarizes the aggregated consideration and preliminary purchase price allocation for the acquisitions completed during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively (in thousands):

| 2021 |  | 2020 |
Common Stock Issued (number) | 122 |  | 33 |
Common Stock Value | $ | 4,060 |  |  | $ | 885 |  |
Cash Paid | 43,104 |  |  | 9,443 |  |
Other Payable | — |  |  | 59 |  |
Recorded Contingent Consideration | 20,124 |  |  | 4,670 |  |
Total Recorded Purchase Price | $ | 67,288 |  |  | $ | 15,057 |  |
Identifiable Intangible Assets Acquired | $ | 22,393 |  |  | $ | 3,629 |  |

Goodwill | 39,017 |  |  | 11,158 |  |
Total Net Assets Acquired | $ | 67,288 |  |  | $ | 15,057 |  |
Maximum Potential Contingent Consideration | $ | 21,115 |  |  | $ | 6,202 |  |

Provisional estimates of fair value are established at the time of each acquisition and are subsequently reviewed within the first year of operations subsequent to the acquisition date to determine the necessity for adjustments. Fair value estimates were provisional for some of the 2021 acquisitions as of June 30, 2021, primarily related to the value established for certain identifiable intangible assets and contingent purchase price consideration associated with those acquisitions.
17

The following table summarizes the aggregated goodwill and intangible asset amounts resulting from those acquisitions for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively (in thousands):

| Six Months Ended June 30,
| 2021 |  | 2020
| Financial Services |  | Benefit & Insurance |  | Financial Services |  | Benefit & Insurance
Goodwill | $ | 37,222 |  |  | $ | 1,795 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 11,158 |
Client List | 20,220 |  |  | 1,290 |  |  | — |  |  | 3,430 |
Other Intangibles | 837 |  |  | 46 |  |  | — |  |  | 199 |
Total | $ | 58,279 |  |  | $ | 3,131 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 14,787 |

Goodwill is calculated as the difference between the aggregated purchase price and the fair value of the net assets acquired. Goodwill represents the value of expected future earnings and cash flows, as well as the synergies created by the integration of the new business within our organization, including cross-selling opportunities expected with our Financial Services practice group and the Benefits and Insurance Services practice group, to help strengthen our existing service offerings and expand our market position. Client lists have an expected life of 10 years, and other intangibles, primarily non-compete agreements, have an expected life of 3 years.
The following table summarizes the changes in contingent purchase price consideration for previous acquisitions and continent payments made for previous business acquisitions in the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively (in thousands):

| Three Months Ended June 30, |  | Six Months Ended June 30,
| 2021 |  | 2020 |  | 2021 |  | 2020
Net Expense (Income) | $ | 93 |  |  | $ | 530 |  |  | $ | 753 |  |  | $ | (154) |

Divestitures
Divested operations and assets that do not qualify for the treatment as discontinued operations are recorded as “gain on sale of operations, net” in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we sold one business for $9.7 million in the Benefit and Insurance practice group and recorded a gain of $6.4 million.
NOTE 12. SEGMENT DISCLOSURES
Our business units have been aggregated into three practice groups: Financial Services, Benefits and Insurance Services and National Practices. The business units have been aggregated based on the following factors: similarity of the products and services provided to clients; similarity of the regulatory environment in which they operate; and similarity of economic conditions affecting long-term performance. The business units are managed along these segment lines. A general description of services provided by each practice group is provided in the table below.

Financial Services |  | Benefits and Insurance Services |  | National Practices
Accounting and Tax |  | Group Health Benefits Consulting |  | Managed Networking and Hardware Services
Government Healthcare Consulting |  | Payroll |  | Healthcare Consulting
Financial Advisory |  | Property and Casualty |  |
Valuation |  | Retirement Plan Services |  |
Risk & Advisory Services |  |  |  |

Corporate and Other - Included in “Corporate and Other” are operating expenses that are not directly allocated to the individual business units. These expenses primarily consist of certain health care costs,
18

gains or losses attributable to assets held in our non-qualified deferred compensation plan, stock-based compensation, consolidation and integration charges, certain professional fees, certain advertising costs and other various expenses.
Accounting policies of the practice groups are the same as those described in Note 1, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies, to the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. Upon consolidation, intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated, thus inter-segment revenue is not included in the measure of profit or loss for the practice groups. Performance of the practice groups is evaluated on income (loss) from continuing operations before income tax expense (benefit) excluding those costs listed above, which are reported as “Corporate and Other”.
Segment information for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 is presented below. We do not manage our assets on a segment basis, therefore segment assets are not presented below.

Same-unit revenue increased by approximately $24.8 million, or 10.5%. Revenue from newly acquired operations, net of divestitures, contributed $16.9 million, or 7.1%, of incremental revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the same period in 2020.
Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased by $65.0 million, or 12.6%, to $579.4 million from $514.4 million for the same period in 2020.Same-unit revenue increased by approximately $34.8 million, or 6.8%.

A detailed discussion of revenue by practice group is included under "Operating Practice Groups".
Income from continuing operations was $8.6 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2021, compared to $21.5 million, or $0.39 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2020. For the first half of 2021, income from continuing operations was $58.8 million, or $1.09 per diluted share, compared to $58.3 million, or $1.05 per diluted share, for the same period in 2020. Refer to “Results of Operations – Continuing Operations” for a detailed discussion of the components of income from continuing operations.
Strategic Use of Capital
Our first priority for use of capital is to make strategic acquisitions. We also have the financing flexibility and the capacity to actively repurchase shares of our common stock. We believe that repurchasing shares of our common stock can be a prudent use of our financial resources, and that investing in our stock is an attractive use of capital and an efficient means to provide value to our stockholders. We have completed four acquisitions for $43.1 million in cash and $4.1 million in our common stock. We also repurchased 2.1 million shares of our common stock at a total cost of approximately $66.5 million in the first half of 2021. Refer to Note 11, Business Combinations, to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion on acquisitions.
During the first quarter of 2021, the CBIZ Board of Directors authorized the purchase of up to 5.0 million shares of our common stock under our Share Repurchase Program (the “Share Repurchase Program”), which may be suspended or discontinued at any time and expires on April 1, 2022. The shares may be purchased in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions, or pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 trading plans, which may include purchases
22

from our employees, officers and directors, in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) rules. CBIZ management will determine the timing and amount of the transactions based on its evaluation of market conditions and other factors.

Non-qualified Deferred Compensation Plan
We sponsor a non-qualified deferred compensation plan, under which a CBIZ employee’s compensation deferral is held in a rabbi trust and invested accordingly as directed by the employee. Income and expenses related to the non-qualified deferred compensation plan are included in “Operating expenses”, “Gross margin” and “Corporate general and administrative expenses” and are directly offset by deferred compensation gains or losses in “Other income, (expense) net” in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. The non-qualified deferred compensation plan has no impact on “Income from continuing operations before income tax expense” or diluted earnings per share from continuing operations.

Three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to June 30, 2020. Total operating expenses for the second quarter of 2021 increased by $27.9 million, or 13.4%, to $236.9 million as compared to $209.0 million in the second quarter of 2020. The non-qualified deferred compensation plan increased operating expenses by $6.8 million in the second quarter of 2021, and by $12.2 million during the same period in 2020. Excluding the non-qualified deferred compensation expenses, operating expenses would have been $230.2 million and $196.8 million, or 82.6% and 83.1%% of revenue, for the second quarter of 2021 and 2020, respectively.
The majority of our operating expenses relate to personnel costs, which includes (i) salaries and benefits, (ii) commissions paid to producers, (iii) incentive compensation, and (iv) stock-based compensation. Excluding the impact of deferred compensation, operating expense increased during the second quarter of 2021 as compared to the same period in 2020, primarily driven by $27.5 million higher personnel costs, $1.5 million higher travel and entertainment costs, $1.0 million higher marketing expenses, as well as $3.0 million higher other discretionary spending. Personnel costs are discussed in further detail under “Operating Practice Groups”.
Six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to June 30, 2020. Total operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased by $52.1 million, or 12.7%, to $460.9 million as compared to $408.8 million in the same period of 2020. The non-qualified deferred compensation plan added $11.4 million of expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2021, but decreased operating expenses by $2.6 million during the same period in 2020. Excluding the impact of deferred compensation, operating expense increase was primarily attributed to personnel costs increase of $41.1 million, offset by $4.1 million lower travel and entertainment costs, and $3.0 million lower bad debt expense. Other discretionary spending increased approximately $4.0 million to support business activities.

Three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to June 30, 2020. The increase in G&A expenses excluding deferred compensation is primarily due to higher personnel costs of $2.3 million and $0.8 million higher expense for professional services.
Six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to June 30, 2020. The increase in G&A expenses excluding deferred compensation is primarily due to higher personnel costs of $3.7 million and $1.2 million higher expenses for professional services.
Legal Settlement, net
Three and six months ended June 30, 2021 compared with June 30, 2020. On June 24, 2021, we reached a settlement agreement with University of Pittsburgh Medical Center (UPMC) pertaining a lawsuit filed in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania. Under the terms of the settlement agreement, we will pay a total settlement amount of $41.5 million, the impact of which will be mitigated by available errors and omissions insurance proceeds. As a result, we recorded a settlement loss of $30.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021.

Three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to June 30, 2020
Revenue
The Financial Services practice group revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2021 grew by 21.1% to $186.6 million from $154.1 million during the same period in 2020. Same-unit revenue grew by $20.4 million, or 13.3%, across all service lines, primarily driven by those units that provide traditional accounting and tax-related services, which increased $10.3 million, and those units that provide project-oriented advisory services, which increased by $8.0 million, as well as moderate growth of $1.9 million in government healthcare compliance business. The impact of acquired businesses, net of divestitures, contributed $12.2 million, or 6.5% of 2021 revenue.
We provide a range of services to affiliated CPA firms under joint referral and administrative service agreements (“ASAs”). Fees earned under the ASAs are recorded as revenue in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income and were approximately $45.2 million and $39.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses increased by $23.5 million, or 18.4%, as compared to the same period last year. The increase in operating expense was primarily attributed to higher personnel costs of $20.8 million, or 13.8%, with acquisitions contributing approximately $8.9 million to the increase in personnel costs. In addition, travel and entertainment, professional services, and other discretionary spending increased by approximately $1.7 million. The increase in personnel costs was offset by $0.5 million lower bad debt expense. Operating expense as a percentage of revenue decreased to 80.9% for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 from 82.7% of revenue for the prior year quarter.

Revenue
Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2021 grew by 14.0% to $390.7 million from $342.9 million during the same period in 2020. Same-unit revenue grew by $28.8 million, or 8.5%, across all service lines, primarily driven by
27

those units that provide traditional accounting and tax-related services, which increased $18.2 million, and those units that provide project-oriented advisory services, which increased by $7.0 million, as well as an increase of $3.3 million in government healthcare compliance business. The impact of acquired businesses, net of divestitures, contributed $19.0 million, or 4.9% of 2021 revenue.
Fees earned under the ASAs, as described above, were approximately $100.0 million and $92.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses increased by $26.7 million, or 10.0%, as compared to the same period last year. The increase in operating expenses was primarily attributed to higher personnel costs of $31.1 million, or 10.6%, with acquisitions contributing approximately $13.1 million to the increase in personnel costs. The increase in personnel costs was offset by $2.0 million lower travel and entertainment spending and $2.8 million lower bad debt expense. In the first half of 2020, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we recorded bad debt expense of $2.0 million, which did not recur in 2021. Operating expense as a percentage of revenue decreased to 74.9% during the six months ended June 30, 2021 from 77.6% of revenue during the same period in 2020.

Three and six months ended June 30, 2021 compared with June 30, 2020
Revenue and Operating Expenses
The National Practices group is primarily driven by a cost-plus contract with a single client, which has existed since 1999. The cost-plus contract is a five-year contract with the most recent renewal through December 31, 2023. Revenues from this single client accounted for approximately 75% of the National Practice group’s revenue. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, revenue increased by $0.5 million, or 5.8%, and increased by $0.8 million, or 4.4%, respectively, while operating expenses increased by $0.5 million, or 6.2%, and increased by $0.8 million, or 4.6%, respectively.
LIQUIDITY
29

Our principal sources of liquidity are cash generated from operating activities and financing activities. Our cash flows from operating activities are driven primarily by our operating results and changes in our working capital requirements while our cash flows from financing activities are dependent upon our ability to access credit or other capital. We historically maintain low cash levels and apply any available cash to pay down the outstanding debt balance.
We historically experience a use of cash to fund working capital requirements during the first quarter of each fiscal year. This is primarily due to the seasonal accounting and tax services period under the Financial Services practice group. Upon completion of the seasonal accounting and tax services period, cash provided by operations during the remaining three quarters of the fiscal year substantially exceeds the use of cash in the first quarter of the fiscal year.
Accounts receivable balances increase in response to the first six months revenue generated by the Financial Services practice group. A significant amount of this revenue is billed and collected in subsequent quarters. Days sales outstanding (“DSO”) from continuing operations represent accounts receivable and unbilled revenue (net of realization adjustments) at the end of the period, divided by trailing twelve months daily revenue. We provide DSO data because such data is commonly used as a performance measure by analysts and investors and as a measure of our ability to collect on receivables in a timely manner. DSO was 84 days and 87 days at June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. DSO at December 31, 2020 was 72 days.
The following table presents selected cash flow information (in thousands). For additional details, refer to the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

| Six Months Ended June 30, |
| 2021 |  | 2020 |
Net cash provided by operating activities | $ | 66,294 |  |  | $ | 55,523 |  |
Net cash (used in) provided by investing activities | (40,137) |  |  | 12,807 |  |
Net cash used in financing activities | (42,582) |  |  | (70,560) |  |
Net decrease in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash | $ | (16,425) |  |  | $ | (2,230) |  |

Operating Activities- Cash provided by operating activities was $66.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and primarily due to net income of $58.8 million and certain non-cash items, such as depreciation and amortization expense of $12.9 million, deferred income tax of $5.4 million, and stock-based compensation expense of $5.5 million. The cash inflow was offset by working capital use of $7.0 million. Cash provided by operating activities was $55.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2020 primarily due to $58.3 million of net income and certain non-cash items, such as depreciation and amortization expense, totaling $18.5 million. This cash inflow was offset by $21.3 million cash used to fund working capital needs.
Investing Activities - Cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $40.1 million and consisted primarily of $43.2 million used for business acquisitions, $3.3 million in capital expenditures, and $4.0 million net activity related to funds held for clients. The use of cash was offset by other investing activities, such as proceeds from sales of divested operations of $9.8 million. Cash provided by investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2020 consisted primarily of proceeds from the sales and maturities of client fund investments of $25.3 million and a net increase in funds held for clients of $3.1 million. This was offset by net cash used in investing activities for business acquisitions of $7.9 million, purchases of client fund investments of $3.4 million and capital expenditures of $5.3 million.
The balances in funds held for clients and client fund obligations can fluctuate with the timing of cash receipts and the related cash payments. The nature of these accounts is further described in Note 1, Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.
Financing Activities - Cash used in financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $42.6 million and primarily consisted of $64.5 million in share repurchases, $27.8 million net decrease in client fund obligations, and $7.9 million in contingent consideration payments related to prior acquisitions. The use of cash was partially offset by $55.3 million in net proceeds from additional borrowings under our 2018 credit facility and $5.4 million proceeds from exercise of stock options during the six months ended June 30, 2021. Cash used in financing
30

activities during the six months ended June 30, 2020 primarily consisted of $50.8 million net decrease in client fund obligations, $31.1 million used to repurchase our common stock, as well as $6.2 million in contingent consideration payments related to prior acquisitions, partially offset by $14.5 million in net proceeds from additional borrowings under our 2018 credit facility.
CAPITAL RESOURCES
Credit Facility - At June 30, 2021, we had $163.3 million outstanding under the 2018 credit facility as well as letters of credit and performance guarantees totaling $5.3 million. Available funds under the 2018 credit facility, based on the terms of the commitment, were approximately $233.4 million at June 30, 2021. The weighted average interest rate under the 2018 credit facility was 1.95% in the first half of 2021, compared to 2.43% for the same period in 2020. The 2018 credit facility allows for the allocation of funds for future strategic initiatives, including acquisitions and the repurchase of our common stock, subject to the terms and conditions of the 2018 credit facility.
Debt Covenant Compliance - We are required to meet certain financial covenants with respect to (i) total leverage ratio and (ii) a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio. We are in compliance with our financial covenants as of June 30, 2021. Our ability to service our debt and to fund future strategic initiatives will depend upon our ability to generate cash in the future. For further discussion regarding our 2018 credit facility and debt, refer to Note 4, Debt and Financing Arrangements, to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.
Use of Capital - Our first priority for use of capital is to make strategic acquisitions. We also have the financing flexibility and the capacity to actively repurchase shares of our common stock. We believe that repurchasing shares of our common stock can be a prudent use of our financial resources, and that investing in our stock is an attractive use of capital and an efficient means to provide value to our stockholders. We have completed four acquisitions for $43.1 million in cash and $4.1 million in our common stock. We also repurchased 2.1 million shares of our common stock at a total cost of approximately $66.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021. Refer to Note 11, Business Combinations, to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion on acquisitions.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We maintain administrative service agreements with independent CPA firms (as described more fully under “Business – Financial Services” and in Note 1, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies, to the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020), which qualify as variable interest entities. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not reflect the operations or accounts of variable interest entities as the impact is not material to the financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows of CBIZ.
We provide letters of credit to landlords (lessors) of our leased premises in lieu of cash security deposits, which totaled $3.0 million and $1.7 million at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. In addition, we provide license bonds to various state agencies to meet certain licensing requirements. The amount of license bonds outstanding was $2.3 million and $2.2 million at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.
We have various agreements under which we may be obligated to indemnify the other party with respect to certain matters. Generally, these indemnification clauses are included in contracts arising in the normal course of business under which we customarily agree to hold the other party harmless against losses arising from a breach of representations, warranties, covenants or agreements, related to matters such as title to assets sold and certain tax matters. Payment by us under such indemnification clauses is generally conditioned upon the other party making a claim. Such claims are typically subject to challenge by us and to dispute resolution procedures specified in the particular contract. Further, our obligations under these agreements may be limited in terms of time and/or amount and, in some instances, we may have recourse against third parties for certain payments made by us. It is not possible to predict the maximum potential amount of future payments under these indemnification agreements due to the conditional nature of our obligations and the unique facts of each particular agreement. Historically, we have not made any payments under these agreements that have been material individually or in the aggregate. As of June 30, 2021, we are not aware of any material obligations arising under indemnification agreements that would require payment.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
The SEC defines critical accounting policies as those that are most important to the portrayal of a company’s financial condition and results and that require management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain.
Our discussion and analysis of our results of operations, financial condition and liquidity are based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements. As more information becomes known, these estimates and assumptions could change, which would have an impact on actual results that may differ materially from these estimates and judgments under different assumptions. We have not made any changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates as previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020.
NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Refer to Note 2, New Accounting Pronouncements, to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for a discussion of recently issued accounting pronouncements.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). All statements other than statements of historical fact included in this Quarterly Report, including without limitation, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" regarding our financial position, business strategy and plans and objectives for future performance are forward-looking statements. You can identify these statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. Forward-looking statements are commonly identified by the use of such terms and phrases as "intends", "believes", "estimates", "expects", "projects", "anticipates", "foreseeable future", "seeks", and words or phrases of similar import in connection with any discussion of future operating or financial performance. In particular, these include statements relating to future actions, future performance or results of current and anticipated services, sales efforts, expenses, and financial results. From time to time, we also may provide oral or written forward-looking statements in other materials we release to the public. Any or all of our forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in any other public statements that we make, are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s business and operations and those of our clients; the Company’s ability to adequately manage and sustain its growth; the Company’s dependence on the current trend of outsourcing business services; the Company’s dependence on the services of its CEO and other key employees; competitive pricing pressures; general business and economic conditions; and changes in governmental regulation and tax laws affecting the Company’s insurance business or its business service operations. Such forward-looking statements can be affected by inaccurate assumptions we might make or by known or unknown risks and uncertainties. Should one or more of these risks materialize, or should the underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those anticipated, estimated or projected.
Consequently, no forward-looking statement can be guaranteed. A more detailed description of risk factors may be found in “Item 1A, Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. Except as required by the federal securities laws, we undertake no obligation to publicly update forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. You are advised, however, to consult any further disclosures we make on related subjects in our filings with the SEC, such as quarterly, periodic and annual reports.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Our floating rate debt under our 2018 credit facility exposes us to interest rate risk. Interest rate risk results when the maturity or repricing intervals of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities are different. A change in the Federal Funds Rate, or the reference rate set by Bank of America, N.A., would affect the rate at which we could borrow funds under the credit facility. The balance outstanding under our credit facility at June 30, 2021 was $163.3 million, of which $78.3 million is subject to rate risk. If market rates were to increase or decrease 100 basis points from the levels at June 30, 2021, interest expense would increase or decrease approximately $0.8 million annually.
We do not engage in trading market risk sensitive instruments. We periodically use interest rate swaps to manage interest rate risk exposure. The interest rate swaps effectively modify our exposure to interest rate risk, primarily through converting portions of our floating rate debt under the credit facility to a fixed rate basis. These agreements involve the receipt or payment of floating rate amounts in exchange for fixed rate interest payments over the life of the agreements without an exchange of the underlying principal amounts.
At June 30, 2021, we had three interest rate swaps with notional values, fixed rates of interest and expiration dates of (i) $20.0 million – 1.770% - May 2022, (ii) $15.0 million – 2.640% - June 2023, and (iii) $50.0 million – 0.885% - April 2025, respectively. Management will continue to evaluate the potential use of interest rate swaps as we deem appropriate under certain operating and market conditions. We do not enter into derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes.
In connection with the services provided by our payroll operations, funds collected from our clients’ accounts in advance are segregated and may be invested in short-term investments, such as corporate and municipal bonds. In accordance with our investment policy, all investments carry an investment grade rating at the time of the initial acquisition, and are classified as available-for-sale securities. At each respective balance sheet date, these investments are adjusted to fair value with fair value adjustments being recorded to other comprehensive income or loss and reflected in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income for the respective period. If an investment is deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired due to credit loss, then the adjustment is recorded to “Other income (expense), net” in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. Refer to Note 6, Financial Instruments, and Note 7, Fair Value Measurements, to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion regarding these investments and the related fair value assessments.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
(a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Management has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (“Disclosure Controls”) as of the end of the period covered by this report. This evaluation (“Controls Evaluation”) was done with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”). Disclosure Controls are controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure Controls include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including the CEO and CFO as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls
Management, including our CEO and CFO, does not expect that our Disclosure Controls or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud. Although our Disclosure Controls are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objective, a control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that the objectives of a control system are met. Further, any control system reflects limitations on resources, and the benefits of a control system must be considered relative to its costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within CBIZ have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some
33

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

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Information regarding certain legal proceedings in which we are involved is incorporated by reference from Note 5, Commitments and Contingencies, to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
In addition to the other information set forth in this Quarterly Report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed under “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 as filed with the SEC. These risks could materially and adversely affect the business, financial condition and results of operations of CBIZ.
ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
(a) Recent sales of unregistered securities
During the six months ended June 30, 2021, approximately 53 thousand shares of our common stock were issued as payment for contingent consideration for previous acquisitions. The foregoing shares were issued in transactions not involving a public offering in reliance on the exemption from registration afforded by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. The persons to whom the shares were issued had access to full information about the Company and represented that they acquired the shares for their own account and not for the purpose of distribution. The certificates for the shares contain a restrictive legend advising that the shares may not be offered for sale, sold, or otherwise transferred without having first been registered under the Securities Act or pursuant to an exemption from the Securities Act.
(b) Issuer purchases of equity securities
On February 11, 2021, our Board of Directors authorized the continuation of the Share Repurchase Program, which has been renewed annually for the past seventeen years. It was effective beginning April 1, 2021, and the amount of shares to be purchased was reset to 5 million, and expires one year from the effective date. The Share Repurchase Program allows us to purchase shares of our common stock (i) in the open market, (ii) in privately negotiated transactions, and (iii) under Rule 10b5-1 trading plans. Privately negotiated transactions may include purchases from our employees, Officers and Directors, in accordance with SEC rules. Rule 10b5-1 trading plans allow for repurchases during periods when we would not normally be active in the trading market due to regulatory restrictions. The Share Repurchase Program does not obligate us to acquire any specific number of shares and may be suspended at any time.
Shares repurchased under the Share Repurchase Program during the three months ended June 30, 2021 (reported on a trade-date basis) are summarized in the table below (in thousands, except per share data). During the second quarter of 2021, 45 thousand shares were purchased from stock plan recipients in lieu of cash to satisfy certain tax obligations under the 2019 Stock Omnibus Incentive Plan. Average price paid per share includes fees and commissions.
