Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

The unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements do not include all of the disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”), pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to state fairly the consolidated financial position of the Company and the consolidated results of operations and comprehensive income (loss) and the consolidated cash flows of the Company. All such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. Operating results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021.

These unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited Consolidated Financial Statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions in determining the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the Consolidated Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates including those related to derivatives and hedging activities, income taxes including the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, litigation reserves, restructuring reserves, allowance for credit losses, contingent consideration, redeemable noncontrolling interest, and valuation of goodwill, long-lived and intangible assets. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash, primarily held in interest-bearing investments, and liquid short-term investments which have original maturities of less than 90 days. Restricted cash includes cash whereby the Company’s ability to use the funds at any time is contractually limited or is generally designated for specific purposes arising out of certain contractual or other obligations.

The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash reported in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets that sum to the amounts reported in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows (in thousands):

​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
​ | ​ | ​ | June 30, 2021 |  | December 31, 2020 | ​
​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
Cash and cash equivalents | ​ | ​ | $ | 174,742 |  | $ | 132,914 | ​
Restricted cash included in "Prepaid and other current assets" | ​ | ​ |  | 10,358 | ​ |  | 26,101 | ​
Restricted cash included in "Other noncurrent assets" | ​ | ​ |  | — | ​ |  | — | ​
Total | ​ | ​ | $ | 185,100 |  | $ | 159,015 | ​

​

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company is exposed to credit risk in the normal course of business, primarily related to accounts receivable and derivative instruments. Historically, the losses related to credit risk have been immaterial. The Company regularly monitors its credit risk to mitigate the possibility of current and future exposures resulting in a loss. The Company evaluates the creditworthiness of its clients prior to entering into an agreement to provide services and as necessary through the life of the client relationship. The Company does not believe it is exposed to more than a nominal amount of credit risk in its derivative hedging activities, as the Company diversifies its activities across eight investment-grade financial institutions.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, “Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes” (ASC 740), which is intended to simplify various aspects related to income tax accounting. The ASU is effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted the new guidance effective January 1, 2021 and the adoption had no effect on the financial statements or related disclosures during the quarter.

Other Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform” (Topic 848), which provides optional expedients and exceptions for contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform due to the anticipated cessation of LIBOR on or before December 31, 2021. The ASU is effective from March 12, 2020, through December 31, 2022 and could impact the accounting for LIBOR provisions in the Company’s credit facility agreement. In addition, in January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01, “Reference Rate Reform – Scope,” which clarified the scope of ASC 848 relating to contract modifications. The Company has not yet adopted the standard but does not expect that the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

(2)ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES

Avtex

On April 8, 2021, the Company acquired, through its subsidiary TTEC Digital, LLC, 100% of the outstanding stock of Avtex Solutions, Holdings LLC (“Avtex”). Avtex is an end-to-end customer experience and CXaaS solutions provider with offerings in Genesys and Microsoft cloud solutions. The business is operated as part of the TTEC Digital segment and is being fully consolidated into the financial statements of TTEC.

Total cash paid at acquisition was $500.0 million ($490.0 million base purchase price plus cash, less debt and working capital estimate). The Avtex transaction is subject to customary representations and warranties, holdbacks, and a net working capital adjustment. The Company used cash from operations and drew down on its Credit Facility to fund the acquisition.

​

The estimates of fair value of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed are preliminary, pending finalization of the valuation and tax returns, thus are subject to revisions that may result in adjustments to the value presented above.

The Avtex customer relationships, intellectual property intangible, and tradename have been estimated based on the initial valuation and will be amortized over estimated useful lives of 9, 3, and 1 years, respectively. The goodwill recognized from the Avtex acquisition is estimated to be attributable, but not limited to, the acquired workforce and expected synergies with the TTEC Digital segment. The tax basis of the acquired intangibles and goodwill will be deductible for income tax purposes. The acquired goodwill and intangibles and operating results of Avtex are reported within the TTEC Digital segment from the date of acquisition.

Voice Foundry

On August 5, 2020, TTEC Digital, LLC, a subsidiary of the Company, closed the first phase of the acquisition of the Voice Foundry business by acquiring 100% of the business’s net assets in the U.S. and U.K., (the “VF US Transaction”). Voice Foundry is a preferred Amazon Connect cloud contact center service and implementation partner. The business has been integrated into the TTEC Digital segment and is being fully consolidated into the financial statements of TTEC.

Total cash paid at acquisition was $34.3 million. The VF US Transaction is subject to customary representations and warranties, holdbacks, and working capital adjustments. The VF US Transaction includes two contingent payments over the next two years with each payment having a maximum value of $7.4 million based on VF US’s EBITDA performance for 2020 and 2021. The Company finalized the net working capital adjustment for $0.3 million which was paid to Voice Foundry during the first quarter of 2021.

The fair value of the contingent consideration has been estimated using a Monte Carlo model. The model was based on current expected EBITDA performance, a discount rate of 23.1%, a volatility rate of 47%, and an adjusted risk-free rate of 2.6%. Based on the model, a $10.9 million expected future payment was calculated and recorded as of the acquisition date. During the fourth quarter of 2020, the first quarter of 2021 and the second quarter of 2021, a $3.2 million expense, a $0.5 million expense and a $0.2 million expense, respectively, were recorded related to fair value adjustments of the estimated contingent consideration based on revised estimates of EBITDA performance for 2021. These expenses were included in Other income (expense) in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss).

The unaudited proforma financial results for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, combines the consolidated results of the Company, Avtex, Voice Foundry US, Voice Foundry ASEAN and Serendebyte assuming the acquisitions had been completed on January 1, 2020. The reported revenue and net income of $1,094.0 million and $97.8 million would have been $1,141.0 million and $100.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, on an unaudited proforma basis.

For 2020, the reported revenue and net income of $885.3 million and $52.9 million would have been $977.3 million and $58.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, on an unaudited basis.

The unaudited proforma consolidated results are not to be considered indicative of the results if these acquisitions occurred in the periods mentioned above, or indicative of future operations or results. Additionally, the proforma consolidated results do not reflect any anticipated synergies expected as a result of the acquisition.

Dissolutions

In the ordinary course of business, the Company operates different legal entities around the globe that have functional currencies other than USD. From time to time, the Company liquidates some of the entities when they are no longer needed to operate its business, and also forms new entities to support the needs of the business. The liquidation proceedings may take different forms, take considerable amount of time, and may also result in losses or gains unrelated to operations. In the second quarter ended June 30, 2020, the Company exited a foreign subsidiary that resulted in a non-cash $2.5 million loss included in Other income (expense), net in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss) from the realization of the Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), which represents the currency translation adjustment of the investment in the foreign subsidiary. Similarly, in the third quarter ended September 30, 2020, the Company exited two foreign subsidiaries that ceased operations and were removed from the consolidated financial statements as of the reporting period ended September 30, 2020. As a result of the deconsolidation, a non-cash $17.4 million loss was included in Other income (expense), net in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income (Loss). The majority of this loss related to the realization of the Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) balance which represents the currency translation adjustment of the investment in the foreign subsidiaries. The operating income of these subsidiaries prior to dissolution was not material to the year-to-date consolidated results of the Company.

(4)SIGNIFICANT CLIENTS AND OTHER CONCENTRATIONS

The Company had one client that contributed in excess of 10% of total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2021; this client operates in the financial services industry and is included in the TTEC Engage segment. This client contributed 14.2% and 8.3% of total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The Company had no clients that contributed in excess of 10% of total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The Company does have clients with aggregate revenue exceeding $100 million annually and the loss of one or more of these clients could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, operating results, or financial condition. To mitigate this risk, the Company has multiple contracts with these larger clients, where each individual contract is for an amount below the $100 million aggregate.

To limit the Company’s credit risk with its clients, management performs periodic credit evaluations, maintains allowances for credit losses and may require pre-payment for services from certain clients. Based on currently available information, management does not believe significant credit risk existed as of June 30, 2021.

In connection with the implementation of ASC 326 as of January 1, 2020, the Company analyzed the prior history of credit losses on revenue for TTEC as a whole and separately for each of the two segments. Based on this evaluation, no modification to the allowance for credit losses balance was necessary as of the implementation date. At the end of each quarter beginning with March 31, 2020, an allowance for credit losses will be calculated based on the current quarterly revenue multiplied by the historical loss percentage of the prior three year period and recorded in the income statement. In addition to the evaluation of historical losses, the Company considers current and future economic conditions and events such as changes in customer credit quality and liquidity. The Company will write-off accounts receivable against this allowance when the Company determines a balance is uncollectible.

Activity in the Company’s Allowance for credit losses consists of the following (in thousands):

​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​

(6)DERIVATIVES

Cash Flow Hedges

The Company enters into foreign exchange related derivatives. Foreign exchange derivatives entered into consist of forward and option contracts to reduce the Company’s exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations that are associated with forecasted revenue earned in foreign locations. Upon proper qualification, these contracts are designated as cash flow hedges. It is the Company’s policy to only enter into derivative contracts with investment grade counterparty financial institutions, and correspondingly, the fair value of derivative assets considers, among other factors, the creditworthiness of these counterparties. Conversely, the fair value of derivative liabilities reflects the Company’s creditworthiness. As of June 30, 2021, the Company has not experienced, nor does it anticipate, any issues related to derivative counterparty defaults. The following table summarizes the aggregate unrealized net gain or loss in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 (in thousands and net of tax):

(7)FAIR VALUE

The authoritative guidance for fair value measurements establishes a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. This hierarchy requires that the Company maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:

Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 — Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.

The following presents information as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 for the Company’s assets and liabilities required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis, as well as the fair value hierarchy used to determine their fair value.

Accounts Receivable and Payable - The amounts recorded in the accompanying balance sheets approximate fair value because of their short-term nature.

Investments – The Company measures investments, including cost and equity method investments, at fair value on a nonrecurring basis when they are deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired. The fair values of these investments are determined based on valuation techniques using the best information available, and may include market observable inputs, and discounted cash flow projections. An impairment charge is recorded when the cost of the investment exceeds its fair value and this condition is determined to be other-than-temporary. As of June 30, 2021, the investment in CaféX Communication, Inc., which consisted of the Company’s total $15.6 million investment, is fully impaired to zero.

Debt - The Company’s debt consists primarily of the Company’s Credit Facility, which permits floating-rate borrowings based upon the current Prime Rate or the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus a credit spread as determined by the Company’s leverage ratio calculation (as defined in the Credit Agreement). As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had $834.0 million and $385.0 million, respectively, of borrowings outstanding under the Credit Facility. During the second quarter of 2021 outstanding borrowings accrued interest at an average rate of 1.3% per annum, excluding unused commitment fees. The amounts recorded in the accompanying Balance Sheets approximate fair value due to the variable nature of the debt based on Level 2 inputs.

Derivatives - Net derivative assets (liabilities) are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The portfolio is valued using models based on market observable inputs, including both forward and spot foreign exchange rates, interest rates, implied volatility, and counterparty credit risk, including the ability of each party to execute its obligations under the contract. As of June 30, 2021, credit risk did not materially change the fair value of the Company’s derivative contracts.

​

Deferred Compensation Plan — The Company maintains a non-qualified deferred compensation plan structured as a Rabbi trust for certain eligible employees. Participants in the deferred compensation plan select from a menu of phantom investment options for their deferral dollars offered by the Company each year, which are based upon changes in value of complementary, defined market investments. The deferred compensation liability represents the combined values of market investments against which participant accounts are tracked.

Contingent Consideration - The Company recorded contingent consideration related to the acquisitions of VF US and VF ASEAN. The contingent payable for VF US was calculated using a Monte Carlo simulation including a discount rate of 23.1%. The contingent payable for VF ASEAN was calculated using a Monte Carlo simulation including a discount rate of 18.4%. The measurements were based on significant inputs not observable in the market. The Company will record interest expense each quarter using the effective interest method until the future value of these contingent payments reaches the expected total future value.

During the first, second and fourth quarters of 2020, the Company recorded fair value adjustments to the contingent consideration associated with the acquisition of FCR LLC based on decreased estimates of EBITDA which caused the estimated payable to decrease. Accordingly, a $3.3 million decrease, a $1.1 million decrease and a $1.8 million decrease to the payable were recorded as of March 31, 2020, June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2020, respectively, and were included in Other income (expense), net in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss). As of December 31, 2020, the final calculated contingent consideration for FCR was zero.

During the fourth quarter of 2020, the first quarter of 2021 and the second quarter of 2021, the Company recorded fair value adjustments to the contingent consideration associated with the VF US and VF ASEAN acquisitions based on increased actual results and estimates of EBITDA for 2021 which caused the payables to increase. Accordingly, a combined $4.3 million increase, $0.9 million increase and $0.2 million increase, to the payables were recorded as of December 31, 2020, March 31, 2021 and June 30, 2021, respectively, and were included in Other income (expense), net in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss). As of June 30, 2021, the expected future contingent consideration for the VF US and VF ASEAN acquisitions is $9.5 million.

(8)INCOME TAXES

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the accounting literature for income taxes, which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future income tax consequences of transactions that have been included in the Consolidated Financial Statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Quarterly, the Company assesses the likelihood that its net deferred tax assets will be recovered. Based on the weight of all available evidence, both positive and negative, the Company records a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets when it is more-likely-than-not that a future tax benefit will not be realized. The Company’s selection of an accounting policy with respect to both the global intangible low taxed foreign income (“GILTI”) and base erosion and anti-abuse tax (“BEAT”) rules is to compute the related taxes in the period the entity becomes subject to either GILTI or BEAT.

As of June 30, 2021, the Company had $19.6 million of gross deferred tax assets (after a $20.5 million valuation allowance) and a net deferred tax asset of $13.5 million (after deferred tax liabilities of $6.0 million) related to the United States and international tax jurisdictions whose recoverability is dependent upon future profitability.

In accordance with ASC 740, during the third quarter of 2020 the Company recorded a liability of $1.7 million related to an uncertain tax position.

The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 was 17.8% and 20.3%, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 was 24.8% and 26.7%, respectively.

The Company’s U.S. income tax returns filed for the tax years ending December 31, 2017 to present, remain open tax years. The Company has been notified of the intent to audit or is currently under audit of income taxes for the United States for tax year 2017 and 2018, the Philippines for tax years 2017, 2018 and 2020, Ireland for 2018 through 2020 and the state of Florida for tax years 2017 to 2019. Although the outcome of examinations by taxing authorities are always uncertain, it is the opinion of management that the resolution of these audits will not have a material effect on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

When there is a change in judgment concerning the recovery of deferred tax assets in future periods, a valuation allowance is recorded into earnings during the quarter in which the change in judgment occurred. In the first quarter of 2020, changes to the valuation allowance were recorded in the amounts of $0.3 million, for deferred tax assets that did not meet the “more-likely-than-not” standard. In the second quarter of 2020, changes to the valuation allowance were recorded in the amount of $0.9 million for assets that were redetermined to meet the “more-likely-than-not” standard. In the first quarter of 2021, a change to the valuation allowance was recorded in the amount of $2.4 million for assets that did not meet the “more-likely-than-not” standard.

The Company has been granted “Tax Holidays” as an incentive to attract foreign investment by the government of the Philippines. Generally, a Tax Holiday is an agreement between the Company and a foreign government under which the Company receives certain tax benefits in that country, such as exemption from taxation on profits derived from export-related activities. In the Philippines, the Company has been granted multiple agreements with an initial period of four years and additional periods for varying years, expiring at various times between 2021 and 2022. The aggregate effect on income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was approximately $2.6 million benefit and $(0.3) million expense, respectively, which had an impact on diluted net income per share of $0.05 and $(0.01), respectively. The aggregate effect on income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was approximately $3.7 million and $1.2 million benefit, respectively, which had an impact on diluted net income per share of $0.08 and $0.02, respectively.

During 2021 and 2020, the Company continued restructuring activities primarily associated with reductions in the Company’s capacity, the workforce in certain locations, and related management in both segments to better align the capacity and workforce with current business needs. TTEC determined it would close several delivery centers servicing the Engage segment and the expenses related to early termination fees and cease use lease accruals were recorded. This expense was included in the Restructuring charges, net in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss).

A summary of the expenses recorded in Restructuring charges, net in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, is as follows (in thousands):

The remaining restructuring and other accruals are expected to be paid or extinguished during the next twelve months and are all classified as current liabilities within Other accrued expenses in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Severance Charges

In the normal course of business, the Company will pay severance to terminated employees related to programs that are ending when such employees are no longer needed and cannot be repurposed to a new program.

During the second quarter of 2020, a $3.0 million accrual was recorded with the expense included in Cost of services during the quarter ended June 30, 2020. During the third and fourth quarters of 2020, a total of $1.6 million was paid and a $0.3 million reduction in expense was recorded. During the first and second quarters of 2021, a total of $0.4 million was paid and a $0.6 million reduction in expense was recorded. The accrual is expected to be paid or extinguished during the next six months and thus is classified as current liabilities within Other accrued expenses in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Impairment Losses

During each of the periods presented, the Company evaluated the recoverability of its leasehold improvement assets at certain customer engagement centers. An asset is considered to be impaired when the anticipated undiscounted future cash flows of its asset group are estimated to be less than the asset group’s carrying value. The amount of impairment recognized is the difference between the carrying value of the asset group and its fair value. To determine fair value, the Company used Level 3 inputs in its discounted cash flows analysis. Assumptions included the amount and timing of estimated future cash flows and assumed discount rates. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 the Company recognized impairment losses, net related to leasehold improvement assets and right of use lease assets of $0.2 million and $0.7 million, respectively, across the TTEC Digital and TTEC Engage segments. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 the Company recognized impairment losses, net related to leasehold improvement assets and right of use lease assets of zero and $0.7 million, respectively, across the TTEC Digital and TTEC Engage segments.

(10)COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Credit Facility

On March 25, 2021, the Company entered into a Fifth Amendment to its Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and Amended and Restated Security Agreement originally dated as of June 3, 2013, (collectively, the “Credit Facility”) to increase the total commitments by $300 million to $1.2 billion by exercising the accordion feature that was included in the senior secured revolving credit facility with a syndicate of lenders led by Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as agent, swingline and fronting lender. The Credit Facility matures on February 14, 2024. The $300 million increase is in the form of a term loan, which can be prepaid anytime and will become due February 14, 2024, contemporaneously with the expiration of the revolving line of credit.

The maximum commitment under the Credit Facility is $1.2 billion in the aggregate, if certain conditions are satisfied. The Credit Facility commitment fees are payable to the lenders in an amount equal to the unused portion of the Credit Facility multiplied by a rate per annum as determined by reference to the Company’s net leverage ratio. The Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative, negative, and financial covenants, which remained unchanged from the 2016 Credit Facility, except that the Company is now obligated to maintain a maximum net leverage ratio of 3.50 to 1.00, and a minimum interest coverage ratio of 2.50 to 1.00. The Credit Agreement permits accounts receivable factoring up to the greater of $75 million or 25 percent of the average book value of all accounts receivable over the most recent twelve-month period.

Base rate loans bear interest at a rate equal to the greatest of (i) Wells Fargo’s prime rate, (ii) one half of 1% in excess of the federal funds effective rate, and (iii) 1.25% in excess of the one month London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”); plus in each case a margin of 0% to 0.875% based on the Company’s net leverage ratio. Eurodollar loans bear interest at LIBOR plus a margin of 1.0% to 1.875% based on the Company’s net leverage ratio. Alternate currency loans bear interest at rates applicable to their respective currencies.

Letter of credit fees are one eighth of 1% of the stated amount of the letter of credit on the date of issuance, renewal or amendment, plus an annual fee equal to the borrowing margin for Eurodollar loans.

The Company primarily utilizes its Credit Facility to fund working capital, general operations, dividends and other strategic activities, such as the acquisitions described in Note 2. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had borrowings of $834.0 million and $385.0 million, respectively, under its Credit Facility, and its average daily utilization was $662.8 million and $548.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The Company had increased borrowings under the Credit Facility from late March 2020 through late September 2020, related to precautionary measures taken to proactively strengthen the Company’s cash reserves and financial flexibility in response to COVID-19 related uncertainties. As of September 30, 2020, those additional borrowings had been repaid. During early April 2021, the Company increased borrowings by approximately $500 million in connection with the acquisition of Avtex (see Note 2). Based on the current level of availability based on the covenant calculations, the Company’s remaining borrowing capacity was approximately $360 million as of June 30, 2021. As of June 30, 2021, the Company was in compliance with all covenants and conditions under its Credit Agreement.

Letters of Credit

As of June 30, 2021, outstanding letters of credit under the Credit Facility totaled $2.8 million and primarily guaranteed workers’ compensation and other insurance related obligations. As of June 30, 2021, letters of credit and contract performance guarantees issued outside of the Credit Agreement totaled $0.4 million.

Legal Proceedings

From time to time, the Company has been involved in legal actions, both as plaintiff and defendant, which arise in the ordinary course of business. The Company accrues for exposures associated with such legal actions to the extent that losses are deemed both probable and reasonably estimable. To the extent specific reserves have not been made for certain legal proceedings, their ultimate outcome, and consequently, an estimate of possible loss, if any, cannot reasonably be determined at this time.

Based on currently available information and advice received from counsel, the Company believes that the disposition or ultimate resolution of any current legal proceedings, except as otherwise specifically reserved for in its financial statements, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, cash flows or results of operations.

​

(11)LEASES

​

Operating leases are included in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as Operating lease assets, Current operating lease liabilities and Non-current operating lease liabilities. Finance leases are included in Property, plant and equipment, Other current liabilities and Other long-term liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Company primarily leases real estate and equipment under various arrangements that provide the Company the right of use for the underlying asset that require lease payments over the lease term. The Company determines the value of each lease by computing the present value of each lease payment using the interest rate implicit in the lease, if available; otherwise the Company estimates its incremental borrowing rate over the lease term. The Company determines its incremental borrowing rate based on its estimated credit risk with adjustments for each individual leases’ geographical risk and lease term. Operating lease assets also include prepaid rent and initial direct costs less any tenant improvements.

The Company’s real estate portfolio typically includes one or more options to renew, with renewal terms that generally can extend the lease term from one to 10 years. The exercise of these lease renewal options is at the Company’s discretion and is included in the lease term only if the Company is reasonably certain to exercise. The Company also has service arrangements whereby it controls specific space provided by a third-party service provider. These arrangements meet the definition of a lease and are accounted for under ASC 842. Lease expense for operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is included in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss). The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or restrictive guarantees.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

We are focused on improving the experience of our clients' customers by leveraging existing and emerging technologies — cloud, omnichannel, analytics, artificial intelligence ("AI"), machine learning ("ML"), robotic process automation ("RPA"), and real-time conversational messaging.

The Company reports its financial information based on two segments: TTEC Digital and TTEC Engage.

This unified offering is value-oriented, outcome-based and delivered to large enterprises, governments and disruptive growth companies on a global scale.

To improve our competitive position in a rapidly changing market and stay strategically relevant to our clients, we continue to invest in innovation and service offerings for both mainstream and high growth disruptive businesses, diversifying and strengthening our core customer care services with consulting, data analytics, insights, and technology-enabled, outcomes-focused services.

We also invest to broaden our product and service capabilities, increase our global client base and industry expertise, tailor our geographic footprint to the needs of our clients, and further scale our end-to-end integrated solutions platform. To this end we have been highly acquisitive in the last several years, including an acquisition early in the second quarter of 2021 of a provider of Genesys and Microsoft cloud contact center services, an acquisition in the second half of 2020 of a preferred Amazon Connect cloud contact center service provider, an acquisition in the first quarter of 2020 of an autonomous customer experience and intelligent automation solutions provider and an acquisition in the fourth quarter of 2019 of a provider of customer care, social media community management, content moderation, technical support and business process solutions for rapidly growing businesses in early stages of their lifecycle.

We have extensive expertise in the automotive, communications, financial services, national/federal and state and local government, healthcare, logistics, media and entertainment, e-tail/retail, technology, travel and transportation industries. We serve more than 575 diverse clients globally, including many of the world’s iconic brands, Fortune 1000 companies, government agencies, and disruptive growth companies.

COVID-19 Pandemic

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of COVID-19 as a global pandemic. Early in second quarter of 2020, we transitioned approximately 80% of our employee population to a work from home environment. Those employees who were considered essential and could not operate effectively while remote work in our brick-and-mortar sites, but most continue to work from home. For those sites that continue to stay opened during the pandemic, we have taken extensive measures to protect the health and safety of our employees, in accordance with the recommendations and guidelines provided by the World Health Organization, the U.S. and European Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the U.S. Occupational Safety Association, and local governments in jurisdictions where our customer experience centers are located.

Although our business experienced some impacts of COVID-19 in the first half of 2020, our implementation of business continuity plans, rapid transition of employees to a work from home environment, and the geographic diversification of our delivery centers allowed us to mitigate potentially more severe impacts and positioned us to continue supporting our commercial and public sector clients without interruptions and provide them with additional support as they experienced surge volumes of customer, patient and citizen COVID-19 related engagement. Through the period ended June 30, 2021 the COVID-19 pandemic has not had a material adverse impact on our operational or financial results. While we expect this positive trend to continue and some of our COVID-19 specific work has transitioned to more traditional business activities for the same clients, there continues to be uncertainty about our COVID-19 and non-COVID-19 related business as the pandemic continues around the globe, and some locations where we deliver business are experiencing ongoing COVID-19 infection surges, related lockdown and business interruption. We cannot accurately predict the severity of the economic and operational challenges of a pro-longed COVID-19 pandemic on our clients’ businesses and its effect on the magnitude and timing of their buying decisions. Further, while to date we have been successful in managing service delivery from a highly disbursed employee population working remotely and our delivery sites that could not be replaced with work from home delivery, unpredictable lockdown decisions in some jurisdictions where we do business, certain seasonal weather cycles and their potential impacts on power grid and internet availability for our employees working from home may impact our delivery capability with little notice, thus potentially impacting our results of operations in the future.

We provide strategic value and differentiation through our two business segments: TTEC Digital and TTEC Engage.

Financial Highlights

In the second quarter of 2021, our revenue increased $101.7 million, or 22.4%, to $554.8 million over the same period in 2020 including an increase of $10.4 million, or 2.3%, due to foreign currency fluctuations. The increase in revenue was comprised of a $70.9 million, or 18.8%, increase for TTEC Engage and a $30.9 million, or 40.0%, increase for TTEC Digital.

Our second quarter 2021 income from operations increased $16.9 million, or 34.5%, to $65.8 million or 11.9% of revenue, compared to $49.0 million or 10.8% of revenue in the second quarter of 2020. The change in operating income is comprised of a number of factors across the segments. The TTEC Engage operating income expanded with a 62.7% improvement over the same period last year primarily based on the increase in revenue including volumes in our financial services, commercial and public sector clients experiencing spikes in customer interactions including COVID-19 specific volumes, a reduction in healthcare expenses, and grant income received to offset salaries and rent expenses. The TTEC Digital operating income decreased 33.5% due to a reduction in the large multi-year government contract and increased amortization of acquisition related intangible assets, partially offset by the 2021 and 2020 acquisitions which accelerated growth in the cloud revenue platform.

Income from operations in the second quarter of 2021 and 2020 included $2.4 million and $0.8 million of restructuring charges and asset impairments, respectively.

Table of Contents

Our offshore customer engagement centers spanning six countries, serve clients based in the U.S. and in other countries with 23,650 workstations, representing 59% of our global delivery capability. Revenue for our TTEC Engage segment provided from these offshore locations represented 30% of our revenue for the second quarter of 2021, as compared to 29% of our revenue for the corresponding period in 2020.

Our seat utilization is defined as the total number of utilized workstations compared to the total number of available production workstations. As of June 30, 2021, the total production workstations for our TTEC Engage segment was 40,300 and the overall capacity utilization in our centers was 62% versus 68% in the prior year period. The utilization is lower than the previous year primarily due to COVID-19 protocols requiring the distancing of associates which has reduced the available seat capacity. Adjusted for social distancing protocols, which reduced the available workstations to approximately 20,800, and accounting for all client paid seats as utilized, whether through actual usage or contractual commitments to hold the seats, current utilization is in excess of 120%.

Post COVID-19 we expect our clients to leverage a more diversified geographic footprint and an increased mix of work from home vs. brick and mortar delivery centers. We will continue to refine our site strategy and capacity as we finalize plans with our clients and prospects.

Some of our clients may be subject to regulatory pressures to serve clients onshore. We plan to continue to selectively retain and grow capacity and expand into new offshore markets, while maintaining appropriate capacity onshore. As we grow our offshore delivery capabilities and our exposure to foreign currency fluctuations increases, we will continue to actively manage this risk via a multi-currency hedging program designed to minimize operating margin volatility.

The increase in revenue for the TTEC Digital segment was driven by increases in the cloud platform and the systems integration practice, including the acquisitions of Avtex and Voice Foundry, offset by reductions in the large multi-year government contract. Excluding the large multi-year government contract, the TTEC Digital revenue has increased 107% year over year.

The operating income decrease is primarily attributable to a reduction in the large multi-year government contract, additional amortization of acquisition related intangible assets and $0.9 million of restructuring charges, partially offset by the acquisitions of Avtex and Voice Foundry, increases in the cloud platform and system integration practice. The operating income as a percentage of revenue decreased to 8.9% in the second quarter of 2021 as compared to 18.6% in the prior period. Included in the operating income was amortization expense related to acquired intangibles of $5.7 million and $0.6 million for the quarters ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

TTEC Engage

​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​

Operating Margin | ​ |  | 12.6 | % |  | 9.2 | % | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​

​

The increase in revenue for the TTEC Engage segment was due to a net increase of $75.0 million in client programs including certain COVID-19 pandemic related programs for several clients and a $9.2 million increase due to foreign currency fluctuations, offset by a decrease for program completions of $13.3 million.

The operating income increased primarily due to the growth in revenue, revenue mix, and increased profitability in several offerings. Included in the second quarter of 2021 is a $2.0 million increase to operating income due to grants received related to COVID-19 relief and a $5.3 million reduction in healthcare expenses, which was offset by $1.6 million of restructuring and impairment charges related to several facilities in the U.S. (see Part I. Item 1. Financial Statements, Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements). As a result, the operating income as a percentage of revenue increased to 12.6% in the second quarter of 2021 as compared to 9.2% in the prior period. Included in the operating income was amortization expense related to acquired intangibles of $3.3 million and $3.3 million for the quarters ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Interest Income (Expense)

Other Income (Expense)

For the three months ended June 30, 2021 Other income (expense), net increased to net income of $1.0 million from net expense of $1.8 million during the prior year quarter.

Income Taxes

The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2021 was 17.8%. This compares to an effective tax rate of 24.8% for the comparable period of 2020. The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2021 was influenced by earnings in international jurisdictions currently under an income tax holiday, the distribution of income between the U.S. and international tax jurisdictions and the associated U.S. tax impacts of foreign earnings. Without a $0.5 million benefit related to restructuring, a $2.4 million benefit related to equity compensation, a $2.3 million benefit related to the amortization of purchased intangibles and $0.2 million of expense related to other items, the Company’s normalized tax rate for the second quarter of 2021 was 21.4%.

Results of Operations

Six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to six months ended June 30, 2020

The tables included in the following sections are presented to facilitate an understanding of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and present certain information by segment for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 (in thousands). All intercompany transactions between the reported segments for the periods presented have been eliminated.

TTEC Digital

​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
​ | ​ | Six Months Ended June 30, | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ |  | ​
​ |  | 2021 |  | 2020 |  | $ Change |  | % Change |  | ​
Revenue | ​ | $ | 171,582 | ​ | $ | 154,699 | ​ | $ | 16,883 |  | 10.9 | % | ​
Operating Income | ​ |  | 13,767 | ​ |  | 24,634 | ​ |  | (10,867) |  | (44.1) | % | ​
Operating Margin | ​ |  | 8.0 | % |  | 15.9 | % | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​

​

The increase in revenue for the TTEC Digital segment was driven by significant increases in the cloud platform and the systems integration practice including acquisitions of Avtex and Voice Foundry, offset by reductions in the large multi-year governmental contract, and the legacy facility based training business and the middle east consulting practice, both of which the Company has exited. Excluding the large multi-year government contract, the TTEC Digital revenue has increased 64% year over year.

The operating income reduction is primarily attributable to a reduction in the large multi-year governmental contract and increased amortization of acquisition related intangible assets partially offset by the increased revenue due to the acquisitions and other revenue increases as well as the exit of the less profitable facilities based training and middle east consulting practices. The operating income as a percentage of revenue decreased to 8.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to 15.9% in the prior period. Included in the operating income was amortization expense related to acquired intangibles of $6.9 million and $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

TTEC Engage

​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
​ | ​ | Six Months Ended June 30, | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ |  | ​
​ |  | 2021 |  | 2020 |  | $ Change |  | % Change |  | ​
Revenue | ​ | $ | 922,431 | ​ | $ | 730,595 | ​ | $ | 191,836 |  | 26.3 | % | ​
Operating Income | ​ |  | 125,487 | ​ |  | 65,044 | ​ |  | 60,443 |  | 92.9 | % | ​
Operating Margin | ​ |  | 13.6 | % |  | 8.9 | % | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​

​

The increase in revenue for the TTEC Engage segment was due to a net increase of $214.1 million in client programs including certain COVID-19 pandemic related programs for several clients, and a $15.7 million increase due to foreign currency fluctuations offset by a decrease for program completions of $38.0 million.

Table of Contents

The operating income increased in line with improved revenue including growth in revenue, revenue mix, and increased profitability in several offerings. Included in 2021 is a $8.0 million increase to operating income due to grants received related to COVID-19 relief. Partially offsetting these increases was a net $5.5 million in restructuring and impairment charges related to several facilities in the U.S. (see Part I. Item 1, Financial Statements, Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements). As a result, the operating income as a percentage of revenue increased to 13.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to 8.9% in the prior period. Included in the operating income was amortization expense related to acquired intangibles of $6.6 million and $6.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Interest Income (Expense)

For the six months ended June 30, 2021 interest income decreased to $0.4 million from $0.9 million in the same period in 2020. Interest expense decreased to $5.2 million during 2021 from $12.7 million during 2020 due to higher utilization of the line of credit offset by lower interest rates, and a $6.3 million decrease period over period in the charge related to the future purchase of the remaining 30% interest in Motif, which was finalized during the second quarter of 2020.

Other Income (Expense)

For the six months ended June 30, 2021 Other income (expense), net decreased to net income of $0.2 million from net income of $1.6 million during the prior year period.

Included in the six months ended June 30, 2021 was a $0.7 million expense related to the fair value adjustments of contingent consideration for two acquisitions.

Included in the six months ended June 30, 2020 was a $4.3 million benefit related to the fair value adjustments of contingent consideration for an acquisition, offset by a $2.5 million expense related to the deconsolidation of three subsidiaries and the related removal of the Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

See Part I. Item 1. Financial Statements, Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Income Taxes

The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was 20.3%. This compared to an effective tax rate of 26.7% for the comparable period of 2020. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was influenced by earnings in international jurisdictions currently under an income tax holiday, the distribution of income between the U.S. and international tax jurisdictions and associated U.S. tax impacts of foreign earnings. Without a $1.6 million benefit from restructuring expenses, $2.4 million of expense related to changes in valuation allowances, a $3.5 million benefit related to the amortization of purchased intangibles, a $5.3 million benefit related to equity-based compensation, and $0.2 million of expense related to other items, the Company’s normalized tax rate for 2021 was 22.6%.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal sources of liquidity are our cash generated from operations, our cash and cash equivalents, and borrowings under our Credit Facility. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we generated positive operating cash flows of $132.8 million. We believe that our cash generated from operations, existing cash and cash equivalents, and available credit will be sufficient to meet expected operating and capital expenditure requirements for the next 12 months.

We manage a centralized global treasury function in the United States with a focus on safeguarding and optimizing the use of our global cash and cash equivalents. Our cash is held in the U.S. in U.S. dollars, and outside of the U.S. in U.S. dollars and foreign currencies. We expect to use our cash to fund working capital, global operations, dividends, acquisitions, and other strategic activities. While there are no assurances, we believe our global cash is well protected given our cash management practices, banking partners and utilization of diversified bank deposit accounts and other quality investments.

41

Table of Contents

We have global operations that expose us to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations that may positively or negatively impact our liquidity. We are also exposed to higher interest rates associated with our variable rate debt. To mitigate these risks, we enter into foreign exchange forward and option contracts through our cash flow hedging program. Please refer to Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk, Foreign Currency Risk, for further discussion.

In early April 2021, we drew down approximately $500 million of the availability on the Credit Facility in order to provide funding for the acquisition of Avtex Solutions, Holdings LLC.

During the first quarter 2020, we borrowed $350 million under our revolving credit facility as a precautionary measure to provide additional liquidity during the global economic uncertainty and financial market conditions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. During September 2020, this additional borrowing was repaid.

Although we expect that current cash and cash equivalent balances and cash flows that are generated from operations will be sufficient to meet our domestic and international working capital needs and other capital and liquidity requirements for at least the next 12 months, if our access to capital is restricted or our borrowing costs increase, our operations and financial condition could be adversely impacted.

The following discussion highlights our cash flow activities during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

We consider all liquid investments purchased within 90 days of their original maturity to be cash equivalents. Our cash and cash equivalents totaled $174.7 million and $132.9 million as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. We diversify the holdings of such cash and cash equivalents considering the financial condition and stability of the counterparty institutions.

We reinvest our cash flows to grow our client base, expand our infrastructure, for investment in research and development, for strategic acquisitions and to pay dividends.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, net cash flows provided by operating activities was $132.8 million and $105.3 million, respectively. The increase is primarily due to a $46.9 million increase in net cash income from operations offset by a $19.3 million reduction in net working capital.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, net cash flows used in investing activities was $505.3 million and $36.3 million, respectively. The increase was due to a $477.3 million increase related to acquisitions offset by a $8.3 million decrease in capital expenditures.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, net cash flows (used in) provided by financing activities was $400.5 million and $332.8 million, respectively. The change in net cash flows from 2020 to 2021 was primarily due to a $39.0 million net million increase in the line of credit and a $37.2 million decrease in payments of contingent consideration offset by a $4.3 million increase in shareholder dividends.

Free Cash Flow

Free cash flow (see “Presentation of Non-GAAP Measurements” below for the definition of free cash flow) increased slightly for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020 primarily due to an increase in net cash from operations offset by a decrease in working capital and lower capital expenditures. Free cash flow was $109.2 million and $73.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Presentation of Non-GAAP Measurements

Free Cash Flow

Free cash flow is a non-GAAP liquidity measurement. We believe that free cash flow is useful to our investors because it measures, during a given period, the amount of cash generated that is available for debt obligations and investments other than purchases of property, plant and equipment. Free cash flow is not a measure determined by GAAP and should not be considered a substitute for “income from operations,” “net income,” “net cash provided by operating activities,” or any other measure determined in accordance with GAAP. We believe this non-GAAP liquidity measure is useful, in addition to the most directly comparable GAAP measure of “net cash provided by operating activities,” because free cash flow includes investments in operational assets. Free cash flow does not represent residual cash available for discretionary expenditures, since it includes cash required for debt service. Free cash flow also includes cash that may be necessary for acquisitions, investments and other needs that may arise.

The following table reconciles net cash provided by operating activities to free cash flow for our consolidated results (in thousands):

​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
​ | ​ | Three Months Ended June 30, | ​ | Six Months Ended June 30,
​ |  | 2021 |  | 2020 |  | 2021 |  | 2020 | ​
Net cash provided by operating activities | ​ | $ | 63,052 | ​ | $ | 43,113 | ​ | $ | 132,839 | ​ | $ | 105,278 | ​

Obligations and Future Capital Requirements

There were no material changes to the Company’s contractual obligations and future capital requirements outside the normal course of business from the date of our 2020 Form 10-K filing on March 1, 2021 through the filing of this report.

Future Capital Requirements

We expect total capital expenditures in 2021 to be between 2.9% and 3.1% of revenue. Approximately 60% of these expected capital expenditures are to support growth in our business and 40% relate to the maintenance for existing assets. The anticipated level of 2021 capital expenditures is primarily driven by new client contracts and the corresponding requirements for additional customer engagement center capacity as well as enhancements to our technological infrastructure.

The amount of capital required over the next 12 months will depend on our levels of investment in infrastructure necessary to maintain, upgrade or replace existing assets. Our working capital and capital expenditure requirements could also increase materially in the event of acquisitions or joint ventures, among other factors. These factors could require that we raise additional capital through future debt or equity financing. We can provide no assurance that we will be able to raise additional capital upon commercially reasonable terms acceptable to us.

Client Concentration

During the six months ended June 30, 2021, one of our clients represented more than 10% of our total revenue. Our five largest clients, collectively, accounted for 36.4% and 39.9% of our consolidated revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively and 39.0% and 37.1% of our consolidated revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. We have had long-term relationships with our top five TTEC Engage clients, ranging from 15 to 21 years, with all of these clients having completed multiple contract renewals with us. The relative contribution of any single client to consolidated earnings is not always proportional to the relative revenue contribution on a consolidated basis and varies greatly based upon specific contract terms. In addition, clients may adjust business volumes served by us based on their business requirements. We believe the risk of this concentration is mitigated, in part, by the long-term contracts we have with our largest clients. Although certain client contracts may be terminated for convenience by either party, we believe this risk is mitigated, in part, by the service level disruptions and transition/migration costs that would arise for our clients if they terminated our contract for convenience.

43

Table of Contents

Some contracts with our five largest clients expire between 2021 and 2023, but most of our largest clients have multiple contracts with us with different expiration dates for different lines of work. We have historically renewed most of our contracts with our largest clients, but there can be no assurance that future contracts will be renewed or, if renewed, will be on terms as favorable as the existing contracts.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market risk represents the risk of loss that may impact our consolidated financial position, consolidated results of operations, or consolidated cash flows due to adverse changes in financial and commodity market prices and rates. Market risk also includes credit and non-performance risk by counterparties to our various financial instruments. We are exposed to market risk due to changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates (as measured against the U.S. dollar); as well as credit risk associated with potential non-performance of our counterparty banks. These exposures are directly related to our normal operating and funding activities. We enter into derivative instruments to manage and reduce the impact of currency exchange rate changes, primarily between the U.S. dollar/Philippine peso, the U.S. dollar/Mexican peso, and the Australian dollar/Philippine peso. We enter into interest rate derivative instruments to reduce our exposure to interest rate fluctuations associated with our variable rate debt. To mitigate against credit and non-performance risk, it is our policy to only enter into derivative contracts and other financial instruments with investment grade counterparty financial institutions and, correspondingly, our derivative valuations reflect the creditworthiness of our counterparties. As of the date of this report, we have not experienced, nor do we anticipate, any issues related to derivative counterparty defaults.

Interest Rate Risk

We have previously entered into interest rate derivative instruments to reduce our exposure to interest rate fluctuations associated with our variable rate debt. The interest rate on our Credit Agreement is variable based upon the Prime Rate and LIBOR and, therefore, is affected by changes in market interest rates. As of June 30, 2021, we had $834.0 million of outstanding borrowings under the Credit Agreement. Based upon average outstanding borrowings during the three months ended June 30, 2021, interest accrued at a rate of approximately 1.3% per annum, respectively. If the Prime Rate or LIBOR increased by 100 basis points, there would be an annualized $1.0 million of additional interest expense per $100.0 million of outstanding borrowing under the Credit Agreement.

Foreign Currency Risk

Our subsidiaries in the Philippines, Mexico, India, Bulgaria and Poland use the local currency as their functional currency for paying labor and other operating costs. Conversely, revenue for these foreign subsidiaries is derived principally from client contracts that are invoiced and collected in U.S. dollars or other foreign currencies. As a result, we may experience foreign currency gains or losses, which may positively or negatively affect our results of operations attributed to these subsidiaries. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, revenue associated with this foreign exchange risk was 17% and 19% of our consolidated revenue, respectively.

In order to mitigate the risk of these non-functional foreign currencies weakening against the functional currencies of the servicing subsidiaries, which thereby decreases the economic benefit of performing work in these countries, we may hedge a portion, though not 100%, of the projected foreign currency exposure related to client programs served from these foreign countries through our cash flow hedging program. While our hedging strategy can protect us from adverse changes in foreign currency rates in the short term, an overall weakening of the non-functional foreign currencies would adversely impact margins in the segments of the servicing subsidiary over the long term.

Cash Flow Hedging Program

To reduce our exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations associated with forecasted revenue in non-functional currencies, we purchase forward and/or option contracts to acquire the functional currency of the foreign subsidiary at a fixed exchange rate at specific dates in the future. We have designated and account for these derivative instruments as cash flow hedges for forecasted revenue in non-functional currencies.

44

Table of Contents

While we have implemented certain strategies to mitigate risks related to the impact of fluctuations in currency exchange rates, we cannot ensure that we will not recognize gains or losses from international transactions, as this is part of transacting business in an international environment. Not every exposure is or can be hedged and, where hedges are put in place based on expected foreign exchange exposure, they are based on forecasts for which actual results may differ from the original estimate. Failure to successfully hedge or anticipate currency risks properly could adversely affect our consolidated operating results.

Our cash flow hedging instruments as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 are summarized as follows (in thousands). All hedging instruments are forward contracts, except as noted.

​

Our cash flow hedges are valued using models based on market observable inputs, including both forward and spot foreign exchange rates, implied volatility, and counterparty credit risk. The decrease in fair value from December 31, 2020 reflects changes in the currency translation between the U.S. dollar and Mexican Peso.

We recorded net gains of $2.4 million and $0.2 million for settled cash flow hedge contracts and the related premiums for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. These gains were reflected in Revenue in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss). If the exchange rates between our various currency pairs were to increase or decrease by 10% from current period-end levels, we would incur a material gain or loss on the contracts. However, any gain or loss would be mitigated by corresponding increases or decreases in our underlying exposures.

Table of Contents

Other than the transactions hedged as discussed above and in Part I, Item 1. Financial Statements, Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, the majority of the transactions of our U.S. and foreign operations are denominated in their respective local currency. However, transactions are denominated in other currencies from time-to-time. We do not currently engage in hedging activities related to these types of foreign currency risks because we believe them to be insignificant as we endeavor to settle these accounts on a timely basis. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, approximately 14% and 15%, respectively, of revenue was derived from contracts denominated in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar. Our results from operations and revenue could be adversely affected if the U.S. Dollar strengthens significantly against foreign currencies.

Fair Value of Debt and Equity Securities

We did not have any investments in marketable debt or equity securities as of June 30, 2021 or December 31, 2020.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

This report includes the certifications of our Chief Executive Officer (the “CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (the “CFO”) required by Rule 13a-14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). See Exhibits 31.1 and 31.2. This Item 4 includes information concerning the controls and control evaluations referred to in those certifications.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

We carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the CEO and CFO, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as of June 30, 2021, the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q. Based on this evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

Inherent Limitations of Internal Controls

Our management, including the CEO and CFO, believes that any disclosure controls and procedures or internal controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of internal control are met. Further, the design of internal controls must consider the benefits of controls relative to their costs. Inherent limitations within internal controls include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple errors or mistakes. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by unauthorized override of controls. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with associated policies or procedures. While the objective of the design of any system of controls is to provide reasonable assurance of the effectiveness of controls, such design is also based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and such assumptions, while reasonable, may not take into account all potential future conditions. Thus, even effective internal control over financial reporting can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives. Therefore, because of the inherent limitations in cost effective internal controls, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and may not be prevented or detected.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2021 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Item 1A, Risk factors, in our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. In addition to the risk factors identified in our 2020 Annual Report, please consider the following revised risk factor.

Cyberattacks, cyber fraud, and unauthorized information disclosure could harm our reputation, result in liability and service outages, any of which could adversely affect our business and results of operations

Our business involves the use, storage, and transmission of information about our clients, their customers, and our employees. We also monitor and support information systems for certain clients through cloud-based and on-client-premises managed services model. While we take reasonable measures to protect the security of and unauthorized access to our systems and to our clients’ systems; and the privacy of personal and proprietary information that we access and store, our security controls over our systems may not be adequate to prevent the improper access to these systems or disclosure of information stored on these systems. Such unauthorized access or disclosure could subject TTEC to significant liability under relevant law or our contracts and could harm our reputation, resulting in impacts on our results of operations, loss of future revenue and business opportunities. These risks may further increase as our business model now includes higher percentage of work from home delivery, in addition to our traditional delivery through customer experience centers.

In recent years, there have been an increasing number of high-profile security breaches at companies and government agencies, and security experts have warned about the growing risks of hackers, cybercriminals and state actors launching a broad range of ransomware, data exfiltration, and other cyberattacks targeting information technology systems. Information security breaches, computer viruses, service interruption, loss of business data, DDoS (distributed denial of service) attacks, ransomware and other cyberattacks on any of our systems or on our clients’ systems that we manage could disrupt our normal operations of customer experience centers, our remote customer experience service delivery, our cloud platform digital offerings, our clients’ on-premise managed service offerings, and our enterprise services, impeding our ability to provide critical services to our clients.

On July 2, 2021, our subsidiary Avtex Solutions, LLC (“Avtex”) and some of its clients experienced a ransomware attack as part of a global supply chain compromise that impacted thousands of companies worldwide and is believed to have been orchestrated by a Russian-based REvil cybercriminal group. The attack exploited a vulnerability in a Kaseya VSA remote monitoring software that Avtex utilized in its managed services solution (“Kaseya REvil attack”). TTEC systems and TTEC’s client support environments, outside of Avtex, were not impacted by the Kaseya REvil attack. Utilizing its standard cyber incident response protocols, TTEC recovered Avtex’s operating environment within hours of the attack and restored Avtex to full operating capacity by July 3, 2021. Over the course of the following weeks, the Company assisted Avtex’s affected clients in restoring their systems to full operations. While we believe that we have remediated the immediate consequences of the incident, cybersecurity events may have cascading effects that unfold over time and result in additional costs, including costs associated with investigations, contractual claims, performance penalties, litigation, future business cancelations and other losses. Any perception by existing and prospective clients that our systems or the information system environments that we support for our clients are not secure could result in a material loss of business and revenue and damage our reputation and competitiveness.

As others in many industries, we are experiencing an increase in frequency of cyber-fraud attempts, such as so-called “social engineering” attacks and phishing scams, which typically seek unauthorized money transfers or information disclosure. We actively train our employees to recognize these attacks and have implemented proactive risk mitigation measures to curb them. There are no assurances, however, that these attacks, which are growing in sophistication, may not deceive our employees, resulting in a material loss.

While we have taken reasonable measures to protect our systems and processes from unauthorized intrusions and cyber-fraud, we cannot be certain that advances in cyber-criminal capabilities, discovery of new system vulnerabilities, and attempts to exploit such vulnerabilities will not compromise or breach the technology protecting our systems and the information that we manage and control, which could result in damage to our systems, our reputation, and our profitability.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

In November 2001, our Board of Directors (“Board”) authorized a stock repurchase program with the objective of increasing stockholder returns. The Board periodically authorizes additional increases to the program. The most recent Board authorization to purchase additional common stock occurred in February 2017, whereby the Board increased the program allowance by $25.0 million. Since inception of the program through June 30, 2021, the Board has authorized the repurchase of shares up to a total value of $762.3 million, of which we have purchased 46.1 million shares on the open market for $735.8 million. The Company did not repurchase any of its shares during the three months ended June 30, 2021. As of June 30, 2021 the remaining amount authorized for repurchases under the program was approximately $26.6 million. The stock repurchase program does not have an expiration date.
