The Company disaggregates revenue from contracts with customers into segments and geographical regions. Revenue disaggregated by segment and geographical region was as follows:

The classification “North America” is comprised of the Company’s United States and Puerto Rico operations and the classification “International” includes the Company’s United Kingdom, Netherlands, Australia and India operations. On July 1, 2022, the Company acquired Only About Children, an operator of 75 child care centers in Australia. Refer to Note 4, Acquisitions, for additional information.

The Company records deferred revenue when payments are received in advance of the Company’s performance under the contract, which is recognized as revenue as the performance obligation is satisfied. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, $175.2 million and $181.0 million was recognized as revenue related to the deferred revenue balance recorded at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

The Company does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts with an original contract term of one year or less, or for variable consideration allocated to the unsatisfied performance obligation of a series of services. The transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations relates to services that are paid or invoiced in advance. The Company’s remaining performance obligations not subject to the practical expedients were not material.

The Company has operating leases for certain of its full service and back-up early education and child care centers, corporate offices, call centers, and to a lesser extent, various office equipment, in the United States, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, and Australia. Most of the leases expire within 10 to 15 years and many contain renewal options and/or termination provisions. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were no material finance leases.

The components of lease expense were as follows:

(1) Excludes short-term lease expense and sublease income, which were immaterial for the periods presented.

The weighted average remaining lease term and the weighted average discount rate were as follows:

The following table summarizes the maturity of lease liabilities as of June 30, 2023:

As of June 30, 2023, the Company had entered into additional operating leases with total fixed payment obligations of $23.5 million that have not yet commenced. The leases are expected to commence in fiscal 2023 and have initial lease terms of approximately 12 to 15 years.

The Company’s growth strategy includes expansion through strategic and synergistic acquisitions. The goodwill resulting from these acquisitions arises largely from synergies expected from combining the operations of the businesses acquired with the Company’s existing operations, including cost efficiencies and leveraging existing client relationships, as well as from benefits derived from gaining the related assembled workforce.

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company acquired four centers in the United States and one center in Australia, in two separate business acquisitions, which were each accounted for as a business combination. The businesses were acquired for aggregate cash consideration of $30.8 million, which is subject to adjustments from the settlement of the final working capital and acquired enrollment. The Company recorded goodwill of $29.1 million related to the full service center-based child care segment in relation to these acquisitions, of which $25.3 million will be deductible for tax purposes. In addition, the Company recorded intangible assets of $3.3 million that will be amortized over four to five years.

The determination and allocation of purchase price consideration is based on preliminary estimates of fair value; such estimates and assumptions are subject to change within the measurement period (up to one year from the acquisition date). As of June 30, 2023, the purchase price allocation for these acquisitions remains open as the Company gathers additional information regarding the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. The operating results for the acquired businesses are included in the consolidated results of operations from the date of acquisition and were not material to the Company’s financial results.

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company paid contingent consideration of $0.2 million related to an acquisition completed in 2021, which had been recorded as a liability at the date of acquisition and is presented as cash used in financing activities in the consolidated statement of cash flows.

On July 1, 2022, the Company, through wholly-owned subsidiaries, completed the acquisition of the outstanding shares of Only About Children, a child care operator in Australia with approximately 75 early education and child care centers, for aggregate consideration of AUD$450 million (USD$310 million), which was accounted for as a business combination. The Company paid approximately AUD$300 million (USD$207 million), net of cash acquired and subject to customary purchase price adjustments, and will pay an additional USD$106.5 million 18 months after closing. In October 2022, the Company reached an agreement with the sellers on the final net working capital, resulting in a refund of AUD$2.6 million (USD$1.8 million), which was received in the fourth quarter of 2022. The present value of the deferred consideration of USD$97.7 million at the acquisition date and USD$103.5 million at June 30, 2023 is included in other current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company incurred acquisition-related transaction costs of approximately $9.2 million, which were included in selling, general and administrative expenses. In addition, the Company recognized realized losses of $5.9 million in relation to foreign currency forward contracts for the purchase of Australian dollars entered into in connection with settling the purchase price for the acquisition. Refer to Note 6, Credit Arrangements and Debt Obligations, for additional information on the foreign currency forward contracts.

The purchase price for this acquisition has been allocated based on estimates of the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities at the date of acquisition as follows:

The Company recorded goodwill of $287.5 million related to the full service center-based child care segment, which will not be deductible for tax purposes. Intangible assets consist of customer relationships of $19.7 million with a six year life and trade name of $7.9 million with an eleven year life.

The operating results for Only About Children are included in the consolidated results of operations from the date of acquisition, and are reported with the full service center-based child care segment. Only About Children contributed total revenue of $68.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was not materially impacted by the acquisition of Only About Children.

The following table presents consolidated pro forma revenue as if the acquisition of Only About Children had occurred on January 1, 2021:

Other than the impact of shifting the transaction costs incurred in 2022 to 2021, consolidated pro forma net income would not materially change from the reported results. In assessing the impact to the unaudited pro forma results we considered certain adjustments related to the acquisition, such as increased amortization expense related to the acquired intangible assets, adjusted depreciation associated with the fair value of the acquired fixed assets, and shifting of transaction costs.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company acquired one center in the United States, one center in the United Kingdom, and one center in the Netherlands, in three separate business acquisitions, which were each accounted for as a business combination. These businesses were acquired for aggregate cash consideration of $6.0 million, net of cash acquired of $0.2 million, and consideration payable of $0.2 million. The Company recorded goodwill of $5.6 million related to the full service center-based child care segment in relation to these acquisitions, of which $1.9 million will be deductible for tax purposes. In addition, the Company recorded intangible assets of $1.0 million that will be amortized over four years in relation to these acquisitions.

The determination and allocation of purchase price consideration is based on preliminary estimates of fair value; such estimates and assumptions are subject to change within the measurement period (up to one year from the acquisition date). As of June 30, 2023, the purchase price allocation for two of the acquisitions remains open as the Company gathers additional information regarding the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. The operating results for the acquired businesses are included in the consolidated results of operations from the date of acquisition and were not material to the Company’s financial results.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company paid contingent consideration of $19.1 million related to an acquisition completed in 2019 and contingent consideration of $0.2 million related to an acquisition completed in 2021. Of the total amounts paid of $19.3 million, $13.9 million had been recorded as a liability at the date of acquisition and was presented as cash used in financing activities in the consolidated statement of cash flows with remaining amounts reflected as cash used in operating activities.

The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill were as follows:

The Company also has intangible assets, which consisted of the following at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022:

The Company estimates that it will record amortization expense related to intangible assets existing as of June 30, 2023 as follows:

The Company’s senior secured credit facilities consist of a $600 million term loan B facility (“term loan B”) and a $400 million term loan A facility (“term loan A” and together with term loan B, the “term loan facilities” or “term loans”), as well as a $400 million multi-currency revolving credit facility (“revolving credit facility”).

Long-term debt obligations were as follows:

			June 30, 2023						December 31, 2022
			(In thousands)
Term loan B			$	591,000					$	594,000
Term loan A			385,000						390,000
Deferred financing costs and original issue discount			(5,828)						(6,419)
Total debt			970,172						977,581
Less current maturities			(16,000)						(16,000)
Long-term debt			$	954,172					$	961,581

On December 21, 2022, the Company amended its existing senior secured credit facilities to replace the LIBOR-based benchmark rate with a term SOFR benchmark rate, which did not alter the applicable interest rates held in effect prior to the change. The amendment was treated as a modification and the related transaction costs were expensed as incurred.

All borrowings under the credit facilities are subject to variable interest. The effective interest rate for the term loans was 7.27% and 6.49% at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, and the weighted average interest rate was 6.91% and 2.56% for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, prior to the effects of any interest rate hedge arrangements. The weighted average interest rate for the revolving credit facility was 7.07% and 5.25% for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

The seven-year term loan B matures on November 23, 2028 and requires quarterly principal payments equal to 1% per annum of the original aggregate principal amount of the term loan B, with the remaining principal balance due at maturity. Borrowings under the term loan B facility bear interest at a rate per annum of 1.25% over the base rate, or 2.25% over the adjusted term SOFR rate. The base rate is subject to an interest rate floor of 1.50% and the adjusted term SOFR rate is subject to an interest rate floor of 0.50%.

The five-year term loan A matures on November 23, 2026 and requires quarterly principal payments equal to 2.5% per annum of the original aggregate principal amount of the term loan A in each of the first three years, 5.0% in the fourth year, and 7.5% in the fifth year. The remaining principal balance is due at maturity. Borrowings under the term loan A facility bear interest at a rate per annum ranging from 0.50% to 0.75% over the base rate, or 1.50% to 1.75% over the adjusted term SOFR rate. The base rate is subject to an interest rate floor of 1.00% and the adjusted term SOFR rate is subject to an interest rate floor of 0.00%.

The $400 million multi-currency revolving credit facility matures on May 26, 2026. At June 30, 2023, there were no borrowings outstanding on the revolving credit facility and letters of credit outstanding were $14.3 million, with $385.7 million available for borrowing. At December 31, 2022, borrowings outstanding on the revolving credit facility were $84.0 million and letters of credit outstanding were $5.2 million.

Borrowings under the revolving credit facility bear interest at a rate per annum ranging from 0.50% to 0.75% over the base rate, or 1.50% to 1.75% over the adjusted term SOFR rate. The base rate is subject to an interest rate floor of 1.00% and the adjusted term SOFR rate is subject to an interest rate floor of 0.00%.

All obligations under the senior secured credit facilities are secured by substantially all the assets of the Company’s material U.S. subsidiaries. The senior secured credit facilities contain a number of covenants that, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, may restrict the ability of Bright Horizons Family Solutions LLC, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, and its restricted subsidiaries, to: incur liens; make investments, loans, advances and acquisitions; incur additional indebtedness or guarantees; pay dividends on capital stock or redeem, repurchase or retire capital stock or subordinated indebtedness; engage in transactions with affiliates; sell assets, including capital stock of the Company’s subsidiaries; alter the business conducted; enter into agreements restricting the Company’s subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends; and consolidate or merge.

In addition, the credit agreement governing the senior secured credit facilities requires Bright Horizons Capital Corp., the Company’s direct subsidiary, to be a passive holding company, subject to certain exceptions. The term loan A and the revolving credit facility require Bright Horizons Family Solutions LLC, the borrower, and its restricted subsidiaries, to comply with a maximum first lien net leverage ratio not to exceed 4.25 to 1.00. A breach of the applicable covenant is subject to certain equity cure rights.

Future principal payments of long-term debt are as follows for the years ending December 31:

The Company is subject to interest rate risk, as all borrowings under the senior secured credit facilities are subject to variable interest rates. The Company’s risk management policy permits using derivative instruments to manage interest rate and other risks. The Company uses interest rate caps to manage a portion of the risk related to changes in cash flows from interest rate movements. On December 21, 2022, the Company amended its existing interest rate cap agreements in conjunction with the amendment to its senior secured credit facilities and replaced the one-month LIBOR rate with the one-month term SOFR rate.

In June 2020, the Company entered into interest rate cap agreements with a total notional value of $800 million, designated and accounted for as cash flow hedges from inception, to provide the Company with interest rate protection in the event the one-month LIBOR rate increases above 1% (effective December 30, 2022, one-month term SOFR rate increases above 0.9%). Interest rate cap agreements for $300 million notional value have an effective date of June 30, 2020 and expire on October 31, 2023, while interest rate cap agreements for another $500 million notional amount have an effective date of October 29, 2021 and expire on October 31, 2023.

In December 2021, the Company entered into additional interest rate cap agreements with a total notional value of $900 million designated and accounted for as cash flow hedges from inception. Interest rate cap agreements for $600 million, which have a forward starting effective date of October 31, 2023 and expire on October 31, 2025, provide the Company with interest rate protection in the event the one-month LIBOR rate increases above 2.5% (effective December 30, 2022, one-month term SOFR rate increases above 2.4%). Interest rate cap agreements for $300 million, which have a forward starting effective date of October 31, 2023 and expire on October 31, 2026, provide the Company with interest rate protection in the event the one-month LIBOR rate increases above 3.0% (effective December 30, 2022, one-month term SOFR rate increases above 2.9%).

During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company entered into foreign currency forward contracts in connection with an acquisition in Australia completed on July 1, 2022. The Company entered into the foreign currency forwards to lock the purchase price in US dollars at closing and mitigate the impact of foreign currency fluctuations between signing of the definitive purchase agreement on May 3, 2022 and closing. The forward contracts had a total notional value of approximately AUD$320 million, which included the expected payments for the purchase price and for letters of credit used to guarantee certain lease arrangements. The cash flows associated with the business combination do not meet the criteria to be designated and accounted for as a cash flow hedge and, as such, foreign currency gains and losses on these forwards are recorded on the consolidated statement of income. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company recognized realized losses of $5.9 million in relation to these forwards due to fluctuations in the Australian dollar.

The fair value of the derivative financial instruments was as follows for the periods presented:

The effect of the derivative financial instruments on other comprehensive income (loss) was as follows:

During the next 12 months, the Company estimates that a net gain of $25.2 million, pre-tax, will be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss and recorded as a reduction to interest expense related to these derivative financial instruments.

The following tables set forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share using the two-class method:

Equity awards outstanding to purchase or receive 1.8 million and 2.0 million shares of common stock were excluded from diluted earnings per share for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and 1.9 million and 1.6 million shares of common stock were excluded from diluted earnings per share for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, since their effect was anti-dilutive. These equity awards may become dilutive in the future.

The Company’s effective income tax rates were 38.2% and 26.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and 43.7% and 23.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The effective income tax rate may fluctuate from quarter to quarter for various reasons, including changes to income before income tax, jurisdictional mix of income before income tax, unbenefited losses, valuation allowances, jurisdictional income tax rate changes, as well as discrete items such as non-deductible transaction costs, the settlement of foreign, federal and state tax issues and the effects of excess (shortfall) tax benefit (expense) associated with the exercise or expiration of stock options and vesting of restricted stock, which is included in tax expense.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the net shortfall tax expense from stock-based compensation expense increased tax expense by $0.8 million and $2.9 million, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the excess tax benefit from stock-based compensation expense decreased tax expense by $0.7 million and $2.7 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, prior to the inclusion of the excess (shortfall) tax benefit (expense), other discrete items and unbenefited losses in certain foreign jurisdictions, the effective income tax rate approximated 28%.

The Company’s unrecognized tax benefits were $4.1 million and $3.8 million at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, inclusive of interest. The Company does not expect the unrecognized tax benefits to change over the next twelve months.

The Company and its domestic subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as tax in multiple state jurisdictions. U.S. federal income tax returns are typically subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and the statute of limitations for federal tax returns is three years. The Company’s filings for the tax years 2019 through 2021 are subject to audit based upon the federal statute of limitations.

State income tax returns are generally subject to examination for a period of three to four years after filing of the respective return. The state impact of any federal changes remains subject to examination by various states for a period of up to one year after formal notification to the states. The Company's filings for the tax years 2018 through 2021 are subject to audit based upon the statute of limitations.

The Company is also subject to corporate income tax for its subsidiaries located in the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Australia, India, and Puerto Rico. The tax returns for the Company’s subsidiaries located in foreign jurisdictions are subject to examination for periods ranging from one to five years.

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value measurements are classified using a three-level hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels and bases the categorization within the hierarchy upon the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to observable inputs such as unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The Company uses observable inputs where relevant and whenever possible. The three levels of the hierarchy are defined as follows:

    Level 1 — Fair value is derived using quoted prices from active markets for identical instruments.

    Level 2 — Fair value is derived using quoted prices for similar instruments from active markets or for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; or, fair value is based on model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable from active markets.

    Level 3 — Fair value is derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, and accounts payable and accrued expenses approximates their fair value because of their short-term nature.

Financial instruments that potentially expose the Company to concentrations of credit risk consisted mainly of cash and accounts receivable. The Company mitigates its exposure by maintaining its cash in financial institutions of high credit standing. The Company’s accounts receivable is derived primarily from the services it provides, and the related credit risk is dispersed across many clients in various industries with no single client accounting for more than 10% of the Company’s net revenue or accounts receivable. No significant credit concentration risk existed at June 30, 2023.

Long-term Debt — The Company’s long-term debt is recorded at adjusted cost, net of original issue discounts and deferred financing costs. The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt is based on current bid prices or prices for similar instruments from active markets. As such, the Company’s long-term debt was classified as Level 2. As of June 30, 2023, the carrying value and estimated fair value of long-term debt was $970.2 million and $973.8 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2022, the estimated fair value approximated the carrying value of long-term debt.

Derivative Financial Instruments — The Company’s interest rate cap agreements are recorded at fair value and estimated using market-standard valuation models. Such models project future cash flows and discount the future amounts to a present value using market-based observable inputs. Additionally, the fair value of the interest rate caps included consideration of credit risk. The Company used a potential future exposure model to estimate this credit valuation adjustment (“CVA”). The inputs to the CVA were largely based on observable market data, with the exception of certain assumptions regarding credit worthiness. As the magnitude of the CVA was not a significant component of the fair value of the interest rate caps, it was not considered a significant input. The fair value of the interest rate caps is classified as Level 2. As of June 30, 2023, the fair value of the interest rate cap agreements was $48.7 million, of which $11.6 million was recorded in prepaid expenses and other current assets and $37.1 million was recorded in other assets on the consolidated balance sheet. At December 31, 2022, the fair value of the interest rate cap agreements was $54.1 million, of which $25.5 million was recorded in prepaid expenses and other current assets and $28.6 million was recorded in other assets on the consolidated balance sheet.

Debt Securities — The Company’s investments in debt securities, which are classified as available-for-sale, consist of U.S. Treasury and U.S. government agency securities and certificates of deposit. These securities are held in escrow by the Company’s wholly-owned captive insurance company and were purchased with restricted cash. As such, these securities are not available to fund the Company’s operations. These securities are recorded at fair value using quoted prices available in active markets and are classified as Level 1. As of June 30, 2023, the fair value of the available-for-sale debt securities was $25.9 million and was classified based on the instruments’ maturity dates, with $18.4 million included in prepaid expenses and other current assets and $7.5 million in other assets on the consolidated balance sheet. As of December 31, 2022, the fair value of the available-for-sale debt securities was $29.6 million, with $17.7 million included in prepaid expenses and other current assets and $11.9 million in other assets on the consolidated balance sheet. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the amortized cost was $26.2 million and $29.8 million, respectively. The debt securities held at June 30, 2023 had remaining maturities ranging from less than one year to approximately two years. Unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, on available-for-sale debt securities were immaterial for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.

Liabilities for Contingent Consideration — The Company is subject to contingent consideration arrangements in connection with certain business combinations. Liabilities for contingent consideration are measured at fair value each reporting period, with the acquisition-date fair value included as part of the consideration payable for the related business combination and subsequent changes in fair value recorded to selling, general and administrative expenses on the Company’s consolidated statement of income. The fair value of contingent consideration was generally calculated using customary valuation models based on probability-weighted outcomes of meeting certain future performance targets and forecasted results. The key inputs to the valuations are the projections of future financial results in relation to the businesses and the company-specific discount rates. The Company classified the contingent consideration liabilities as a Level 3 fair value measurement due to the lack of observable inputs used in the model. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, contingent consideration liabilities of $0.2 million were paid related to an acquisition completed in 2021. The contingent consideration liabilities outstanding as of June 30, 2023 relate to an acquisition completed in 2021.

The following table provides a roll forward of the recurring Level 3 fair value measurements:

Accumulated other comprehensive loss, which is included as a component of stockholders’ equity, is comprised of foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains (losses) on cash flow hedges and investments, net of tax.

The changes in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) by component were as follows:

(1)Taxes are not provided for the currency translation adjustments related to the undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries that are intended to be indefinitely reinvested.

The Company’s reportable segments are comprised of (1) full service center-based child care, (2) back-up care, and (3) educational advisory and other services. The full service center-based child care segment includes the traditional center-based early education and child care, preschool, and elementary education. The Company’s back-up care segment consists of center-based back-up child care, in-home care for children and adult/elder dependents, school-age camps, virtual tutoring, pet care and self-sourced reimbursed care. The Company’s educational advisory and other services segment consists of tuition assistance and student loan repayment program management, workforce education, related educational advising, college advisory services, and Sittercity, an online marketplace for families and caregivers, which have been aggregated. The Company and its chief operating decision maker evaluate performance based on revenue and income from operations. Intercompany activity is eliminated in the segment results. The assets and liabilities of the Company are managed centrally and are reported internally in the same manner as the consolidated financial statements; therefore, no segment asset information is produced or included herein.

Revenue and income from operations by reportable segment were as follows:
