1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The Company
IQVIA Holdings Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company” or “IQVIA”) is a leading global provider of advanced analytics, technology solutions and clinical research services to the life sciences industry. With approximately 87,000 employees, the Company conducts business in more than 100 countries.
Unaudited Interim Financial Information
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations have been included. Operating results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023. As such, the information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. The balance sheet as of December 31, 2022 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company, but does not include all the disclosures required by GAAP.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
Accounting pronouncements adopted
In September 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued new accounting guidance, Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2022-04, Liabilities - Supplier Finance Programs, to enhance the transparency of supplier finance programs. The amendments in this ASU address investor and other financial statement user requests for additional information about the use of supplier finance programs by the buyer party to understand the effect of those programs on an entity's working capital, liquidity, and cash flows. The Company adopted this new accounting guidance effective January 1, 2023. The adoption of this new accounting guidance did not have a material effect on the Company's disclosures within the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Transaction Price Allocated to the Remaining Performance Obligations
As of September 30, 2023, approximately $31.3 billion of revenues are expected to be recognized in the future from remaining performance obligations. The Company expects to recognize revenues on approximately 30% of these remaining performance obligations over the next twelve months, on approximately 85% over the next five years, with the balance recognized thereafter. Most of the Company's remaining performance obligations where revenues are expected to be recognized beyond the next twelve months are for service contracts for clinical research in the Company's Research & Development Solutions segment. The customer contract transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations differs from backlog in that it does not include wholly unperformed contracts under which the customer has a unilateral right to cancel the arrangement.
3. Trade Accounts Receivable, Unbilled Services and Unearned Income
Trade accounts receivables and unbilled services consist of the following:
(in millions) September 30, 2023 December 31, 2022
Trade accounts receivable $ 1,349  $ 1,329 
Unbilled services 1,905  1,624 
Trade accounts receivable and unbilled services 3,254  2,953 
Allowance for doubtful accounts (27) (36)
Trade accounts receivable and unbilled services, net $ 3,227  $ 2,917 
Unbilled services and unearned income were as follows:
(in millions) September 30, 2023 December 31, 2022
Change
Unbilled services $ 1,905  $ 1,624  $ 281 
Unearned income (1,838) (1,797) (41)
Net balance $ 67  $ (173) $ 240 
Unbilled services, which is comprised of approximately 66% and 61% of unbilled receivables and 34% and 39% of contract assets as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, increased by $281 million as compared to December 31, 2022. Contract assets are unbilled services for which invoicing is based on the timing of certain milestones related to service contracts for clinical research whereas unbilled receivables are billable upon the passage of time. Unearned income increased by $41 million over the same period resulting in an increase of $240 million in the net balance of unbilled services and unearned income between September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The change in the net balance is driven by the difference in timing of revenue recognition in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, primarily related to the Company’s Research & Development Solutions contracts (which is based on the percentage of costs incurred) versus the timing of invoicing, which is based on certain milestones.
The majority of the unearned income balance as of the beginning of the year is expected to be recognized in revenues during the year ended December 31, 2023.
Bad debt expense recognized on the Company’s trade accounts receivable was immaterial for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.
Accounts Receivable Factoring Arrangements
The Company has accounts receivable factoring agreements to sell certain eligible unsecured trade accounts receivable, either based on automatic arrangements or at its option, without recourse, to unrelated third-party financial institutions for cash. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, through its accounts receivable factoring arrangements that the Company utilizes most frequently, the Company factored approximately $545 million of customer invoices on a non-recourse basis and received approximately $534 million in cash proceeds from the sales. The fees associated with these transactions were immaterial. The Company has other accounts receivable arrangements for which the activity associated with them is immaterial.

As of September 30, 2023, the Company's foreign currency denominated debt balance (net of original issue discount) designated as a hedge of its net investment in certain foreign subsidiaries totaled €5,199 million ($5,498 million).

6. Fair Value Measurements
The Company records certain assets and liabilities at fair value. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value is described below. This hierarchy requires entities to 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; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
•Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.
The carrying values of cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximated their fair values as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 due to their short-term nature. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the fair value of total debt was $13,138 million and $12,281 million, respectively, as determined under Level 2 measurements for these financial instruments.
Recurring Fair Value Measurements

Below is a summary of the valuation techniques used in determining fair value:
Marketable securities — The Company values trading and available-for-sale securities using the quoted market value of the securities held.
Derivatives — Derivatives consist of foreign exchange contracts and interest rate swaps. The fair value of foreign exchange contracts is based on observable market inputs of spot and forward rates or using other observable inputs. The fair value of the interest rate swaps is the estimated amount that the Company would receive or pay to terminate such agreements, taking into account market interest rates and the remaining time to maturities or using market inputs with mid-market pricing as a practical expedient for bid-ask spread.
Contingent consideration — The Company values contingent consideration related to business combinations using a weighted probability calculation of potential payment scenarios discounted at rates reflective of the risks associated with the expected future cash flows. Assumptions used to estimate the fair value of contingent consideration include various financial metrics (revenue performance targets and operating forecasts) and the probability of achieving the specific targets. Based on the assessments of the probability of achieving specific targets, as of September 30, 2023, the Company has accrued approximately 35% of the maximum contingent consideration payments that could potentially become payable.
The following table summarizes the changes in Level 3 financial assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis for the nine months ended September 30, 2023:
(in millions) Contingent Consideration
Balance as of December 31, 2022 $ 173 
Business combinations 59 
Contingent consideration paid (72)
Revaluations included in earnings and foreign currency translation adjustments (56)
Balance as of September 30, 2023 $ 104 
The current portion of contingent consideration is included within accrued expenses and the long-term portion is included within other liabilities on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Revaluations of contingent consideration are recognized in other (income) expense, net on the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income. A change in significant unobservable inputs could result in a higher or lower fair value measurement of contingent consideration.
Non-recurring Fair Value Measurements
As of September 30, 2023, assets carried on the balance sheet and not remeasured to fair value on a recurring basis totaled $19,387 million and were identified as Level 3. These assets are comprised of debt investments and cost and equity method investments of $192 million, goodwill of $14,288 million and other identifiable intangibles, net of $4,907 million.

Senior Secured Credit Facilities
As of September 30, 2023, the Company’s Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement provided financing through several senior secured credit facilities of up to $7,998 million, which consisted of $6,248 million principal amounts of debt outstanding (as detailed in the table above), and $1,745 million of available borrowing capacity on the $2,000 million revolving credit facility and standby letters of credit. The revolving credit facility is comprised of a $1,175 million senior secured revolving facility available in U.S. dollars, a $600 million senior secured revolving facility available in U.S. dollars, Euros, Swiss Francs and other foreign currencies, and a $225 million senior secured revolving facility available in U.S. dollars and Yen.
On April 17, 2023, the Company increased the capacity of its senior secured revolving credit facility by $500 million U.S. dollars, bringing the total capacity of the revolving credit facility to $2,000 million. At the same time, the Company also amended the benchmark rate of the U.S. dollar revolving credit facility and the U.S. dollar Term A Loans from U.S. dollar LIBOR to U.S. dollar SOFR plus a 10 basis point Credit Spread Adjustment.
Senior Notes
On May 23, 2023, IQVIA Inc. (the “Issuer”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, completed the issuance and sale of $750 million in gross proceeds of the Issuer’s 5.700% senior secured notes due 2028 (the “Senior Secured Notes”) and $500 million in gross proceeds of 6.500% senior notes due 2030 (the “Senior Notes” and, together with the Senior Secured Notes, the “Notes”). The Senior Secured Notes were issued pursuant to an Indenture, dated May 23, 2023 (the “Secured Notes Indenture”), among the Issuer, U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee of the Senior Secured Notes and as collateral agent, and the Company and certain subsidiaries of the Issuer as guarantors. The Senior Notes were issued pursuant to an Indenture, dated May 23, 2023, among the Issuer, U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee of the Senior Notes, and certain subsidiaries of the Issuer as guarantors (the “Senior Notes Indenture” and, together with the Secured Notes Indenture, the “Indentures”). The net proceeds from the notes offering were used to repay existing borrowings under the Issuer’s revolving credit facility and to pay fees and expenses related to the Notes offering.
The Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction. Pursuant to a registration rights agreement entered into in connection with the Notes offering, the Issuer and the guarantors agreed, among other things, to use commercially reasonable efforts to, within certain time periods, file a registration statement with respect to a registered offer to exchange the Senior Secured Notes for new exchange notes, have the exchange offer registration statement declared effective, and complete the exchange offer promptly thereafter, unless the Senior Secured Notes are redeemed earlier.
The Senior Secured Notes are secured obligations of the Issuer, will mature on May 15, 2028, unless earlier repurchased or redeemed in accordance with their terms, and bear interest at the rate of 5.700% per year, with interest payable semi-annually on May 15 and November 15 of each year, beginning on November 15, 2023. The Senior Notes are unsecured obligations of the Issuer, will mature on May 15, 2030, unless earlier repurchased or redeemed in accordance with their terms, and bear interest at the rate of 6.500% per year, with interest payable semi-annually on May 15 and November 15 of each year, beginning on November 15, 2023.
The Issuer may redeem (i) the Senior Secured Notes prior to April 15, 2028 subject to a customary make-whole premium, and thereafter subject to a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest and (ii) the Senior Notes prior to their final stated maturity, subject to a customary make-whole premium, at any time prior to May 15, 2026 (subject to a customary “equity claw” redemption right) and thereafter subject to a redemption premium declining from 3.250% to 0.000%.

Restrictive Covenants
The Company’s debt agreements provide for certain covenants and events of default customary for similar instruments, including a covenant not to exceed a specified ratio of consolidated senior secured net indebtedness to Consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the senior secured credit facility agreement and a covenant to maintain a specified minimum interest coverage ratio. If an event of default occurs under any of the Company’s or the Company’s subsidiaries’ financing arrangements, the creditors under such financing arrangements will be entitled to take various actions, including the acceleration of amounts due under such arrangements, and in the case of the lenders under the revolving credit facility and term loans, other actions permitted to be taken by a secured creditor. The Company’s long-term debt arrangements contain other usual and customary restrictive covenants that, among other things, place limitations on the Company’s ability to declare dividends. As of September 30, 2023, the Company was in compliance in all material respects with the financial covenants under the Company’s financing arrangements.
8. Contingencies
The Company and its subsidiaries are involved in legal and tax proceedings, claims and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. Management periodically assesses the Company’s liabilities and contingencies in connection with these matters based upon the latest information available. For those matters where management currently believes it is probable that the Company will incur a loss and that the probable loss or range of loss can be reasonably estimated, the Company has recorded an accrual in the consolidated financial statements based on its best estimates of such loss. In other instances, because of the uncertainties related to either the probable outcome or the amount or range of loss, management is unable to make a reasonable estimate of a liability, if any.
However, even in many instances where the Company has recorded an estimated liability, the Company is unable to predict with certainty the final outcome of the matter or whether resolution of the matter will materially affect the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows. As additional information becomes available, the Company adjusts its assessments and estimates of such liabilities accordingly.
The Company routinely enters into agreements with third parties, including its clients and suppliers, all in the normal course of business. In these agreements, the Company sometimes agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the other party for any damages such other party may suffer as a result of potential intellectual property infringement and other claims. The Company has not accrued a liability with respect to these matters generally, as the exposure is considered remote.
Based on its review of the latest information available, management does not expect the impact of pending legal and tax proceedings, claims and litigation, either individually or in the aggregate, to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows or financial position. However, one or more unfavorable outcomes in any claim or litigation against the Company could have a material adverse effect for the period in which it is resolved. The following is a summary of certain legal matters involving the Company.
On February 13, 2014, a group of approximately 1,200 medical doctors and 900 private individuals filed a civil lawsuit with the Seoul Central District Court against IMS Korea and two other defendants, the Korean Pharmaceutical Association (“KPA”) and the Korean Pharmaceutical Information Center (“KPIC”). The civil lawsuit alleges KPA and KPIC collected their personal information in violation of applicable privacy laws without the necessary consent through a software system installed on pharmacy computer systems in Korea, and that personal information was transferred to IMS Korea and sold to pharmaceutical companies. On September 11, 2017, the District Court issued a final decision that the encryption in use by the defendants since June 2014 was adequate to meet the requirements of the Korean Personal Information Privacy Act (“PIPA”) and the sharing of non-identified information for market research purposes was allowed under PIPA. The District Court also found an earlier version of encryption was insufficient to meet PIPA requirements, but no personal data had been leaked or re-identified. The District Court did not award any damages to plaintiffs. Approximately 280 medical doctors and 200 private individuals appealed the District Court decision. On May 3, 2019, the Appellate Court issued a final decision in which it concluded all of the non-identified information transferred by KPIC to IMS Korea for market research purposes violated PIPA, but did not award any damages to plaintiffs (affirming the District Court’s decision on this latter point). On May 24, 2019, approximately 247 plaintiffs appealed the Appellate Court’s decision to the Supreme Court. The Company believes the appeal is without merit and is vigorously defending its position.
17

On July 23, 2015, indictments were issued by the Seoul Central District Prosecutors’ Office in South Korea against 24 individuals and companies alleging improper handling of sensitive health information in violation of, among others, South Korea’s Personal Information Protection Act. IMS Korea and two of its employees were among the individuals and organizations indicted. Although there is no assertion that IMS Korea used patient identified health information in any of its offerings, prosecutors allege that certain of IMS Korea’s data suppliers should have obtained patient consent when they converted sensitive patient information into non-identified data and that IMS Korea had not taken adequate precautions to reduce the risk of re-identification. On February 14, 2020, the Seoul Central District Court acquitted IMS Korea and its two employees of the charges of improper handling of sensitive health information, and the Prosecutor's Office appealed. On December 23, 2021, the appellate court affirmed the judgment of the Seoul Central District Court. The Prosecutor's Office has appealed to the Supreme Court. The Company intends to vigorously defend its position on appeal.
On January 10, 2017, Quintiles IMS Health Incorporated and IMS Software Services Ltd. (collectively “IQVIA Parties”), filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey against Veeva Systems, Inc. (“Veeva”) alleging Veeva unlawfully used IQVIA Parties intellectual property to improve Veeva data offerings, to promote and market Veeva data offerings and to improve Veeva technology offerings. IQVIA Parties seek injunctive relief, appointment of a monitor, the award of compensatory and punitive damages and reimbursement of all litigation expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs. On March 13, 2017, Veeva filed counterclaims alleging anticompetitive business practices in violation of the Sherman Act and state laws. Veeva claims damages in excess of $200 million, and is seeking punitive damages and litigation costs, including attorneys’ fees. The Company believes the counterclaims are without merit, rejects all counterclaims raised by Veeva and intends to vigorously defend IQVIA Parties’ position and pursue its claims against Veeva. Since the initial filings, the parties have filed additional litigations against each other, primarily concerning the use of IQVIA data with various other Veeva products. The parties are engaged in the discovery process in connection with these lawsuits.
On May 7, 2021, the Court issued an order and opinion (the “Order”) in which it found significant evidence that Veeva had (1) misappropriated IQVIA data and unlawfully used it to improve Veeva data offerings, (2) engaged in a cover-up by deleting significant evidence of its theft of IQVIA’s trade secrets, and (3) improperly withheld certain evidence in furtherance of a crime and/or fraud against IQVIA. The Court imposed five sanctions against Veeva, including ordering three separate adverse inference instructions be issued to the jury and that IQVIA be permitted to present evidence to the jury of Veeva’s destruction efforts. Veeva is currently appealing the Order.
9. Stockholders’ Equity
Preferred Stock
The Company is authorized to issue 1.0 million shares of preferred stock, $0.01 per share par value. No shares of preferred stock were issued or outstanding as of September 30, 2023 or December 31, 2022.
Equity Repurchase Program
On July 31, 2023, the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") increased the stock repurchase authorization under the Company's equity repurchase program (the "Repurchase Program") with respect to the repurchase of the Company's common stock by an additional $2,000 million, which increased the total amount that has been authorized under the Repurchase Program to $11,725 million. The Repurchase Program does not obligate the Company to repurchase any particular amount of common stock, and it may be modified, extended, suspended or discontinued at any time.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company repurchased 3.9 million shares of its common stock for $763 million under the Repurchase Program. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had remaining authorization to repurchase up to $2,592 million of its common stock under the Repurchase Program. In addition, from time to time, the Company has repurchased and may continue to repurchase common stock through private or other transactions outside of the Repurchase Program.

10. Business Combinations
The Company completed several individually immaterial acquisitions during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The Company’s assessment of fair value, including the valuation of certain identified intangibles, and the purchase price allocation related to these acquisitions is preliminary and subject to change upon completion. Further adjustments may be necessary as additional information related to the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is assessed during the measurement period (up to one year from the acquisition date). The Company recorded goodwill from these acquisitions, primarily attributable to assembled workforce, expected synergies and new customer relationships. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the results of the acquisitions subsequent to their respective closing dates. Pro forma information is not presented as pro forma results of operations would not be materially different to the actual results of operations of the Company.
The following table provides certain preliminary financial information for these acquisitions:
(in millions) September 30, 2023
Assets acquired:
Cash and cash equivalents $ 27 
Accounts receivable 42 
Other assets
Goodwill 512 
Other identifiable intangibles 416 
Liabilities assumed:
Other liabilities (38)
Deferred income taxes, long-term (17)
Net assets acquired (1)
$ 951 
(1) Net assets acquired includes contingent consideration and deferred purchase price of $66 million.
The portion of goodwill deductible for income tax purposes was preliminarily assessed as $373 million.
The following table provides a summary of the preliminary estimated fair value of certain intangible assets acquired:
(in millions) Amortization Period September 30, 2023
Other identifiable intangibles:
Customer relationships 10 - 15 years $ 330 
Backlog 2 years 51 
Software and related assets 5 - 8 years 29 
Databases 3 - 5 years
Trade names 5 years
Total Other identifiable intangibles $ 416 
11. Restructuring
The Company has continued to take restructuring actions in 2023 to align its resources and reduce overcapacity to adapt to changing market conditions and integrate acquisitions. These actions include consolidating functional activities, eliminating redundant positions, and aligning resources with customer requirements. These restructuring actions are expected to continue throughout 2023 and into 2024.
19

The following amounts were recorded for the restructuring plans:
(in millions) Severance and
Related Costs
Balance as of December 31, 2022 $ 26 
Expense, net of reversals 67 
Payments (50)
Foreign currency translation and other (1)
Balance as of September 30, 2023 $ 42 
The reversals were due to changes in estimates primarily resulting from the redeployment of staff and higher than expected voluntary terminations. Restructuring costs are not allocated to the Company’s reportable segments as they are not part of the segment performance measures regularly reviewed by management. The Company expects that the majority of the restructuring accruals as of September 30, 2023 will be paid in 2023 and 2024.
12. Income Taxes
The Company's effective income tax rate was 14.6% and 19.4% in the third quarter of 2023 and 2022, and 18.7% and 19.5% in the first nine months of 2023 and 2022, respectively. The effective income tax rate in the third quarter and first nine months of 2023 was favorably impacted by a reversal of uncertain tax positions relating to tax credit carryforwards in the amount of $21 million. Additionally, the effective income tax rate in the third quarter and in the first nine months of 2023 and 2022 was favorably impacted as a result of excess tax benefits recognized upon settlement of share-based compensation awards. For the third quarter of 2023 and 2022 this impact was $2 million and $1 million, respectively, and for the first nine months of 2023 and 2022 this impact was $12 million and $15 million, respectively.
Historically, the Company recorded deferred tax assets related to certain foreign tax credits. A full valuation allowance in relation to these foreign tax credits was established as it was not expected the credits would be utilized prior to expiration. As a result of an anticipated internal legal entity restructuring, the Company now believes it is reasonably possible that these foreign tax credits will be utilized and expects to reverse the valuation allowance in the near term which could create a material discrete tax benefit in the period recorded.

Effect of dilutive stock options and share awards 2.6  2.9  2.5  3.0 
Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding 185.5  189.4  186.9  191.3 
Earnings per share attributable to common stockholders:
Basic $ 1.66  $ 1.52  $ 4.82  $ 4.59 
Diluted $ 1.63  $ 1.49  $ 4.76  $ 4.52 
Stock-based awards will have a dilutive effect under the treasury method when the respective period's average market value of the Company's common stock exceeds the exercise proceeds. Performance awards are included in diluted earnings per share based on if the performance targets have been met at the end of the reporting period.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the weighted average number of outstanding stock-based awards not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because they are subject to performance conditions that have not been met at the end of the reporting period or the effect of including such stock-based awards in the computation would be anti-dilutive was 0.9 million and 0.4 million, and 1.0 million and 0.5 million, respectively.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Cautionary Statement for Forward-Looking Information
You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with our condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and with our audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 (our “2022 Form 10-K”).
In addition to historical condensed consolidated financial information, the following discussion contains or incorporates by reference forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws, including Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), that are not historical facts but reflect, among other things, our current expectations, our forecasts and our anticipated results of operations, all of which are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements, market trends, or industry results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.

Sources of Revenue
Total revenues are comprised of revenues from the provision of our services. We do not have any material product revenues.
Costs and Expenses
Our costs and expenses are comprised primarily of our cost of revenues including reimbursed expenses and selling, general and administrative expenses. Cost of revenues includes compensation and benefits for billable employees and personnel involved in production, trial monitoring, data management and delivery, and the costs of acquiring and processing data for our information offerings; costs of staff directly involved with delivering technology-related services offerings and engagements, related accommodations and the costs of data purchased specifically for technology services engagements; and other expenses directly related to service contracts such as courier fees, laboratory supplies, professional services and travel expenses. Reimbursed expenses, which are included in cost of revenues, are comprised principally of payments to investigators who oversee clinical trials and travel expenses for our clinical monitors and sales representatives. Selling, general and administrative expenses include costs related to sales, marketing and administrative functions (including human resources, legal, finance, quality assurance, compliance and general management) for compensation and benefits, travel, professional services, training and expenses for information technology and facilities. We also incur costs and expenses associated with depreciation and amortization.
Foreign Currency Translation
In the first nine months of 2023, approximately 30% of our revenues were denominated in currencies other than the United States dollar, which represents approximately 60 currencies. Because a large portion of our revenues and expenses are denominated in foreign currencies and our financial statements are reported in United States dollars, changes in foreign currency exchange rates can significantly affect our results of operations. The revenues and expenses of our foreign operations are generally denominated in local currencies and translated into United States dollars for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, exchange rate fluctuations will affect the translation of foreign results into United States dollars for purposes of reporting our condensed consolidated results. As a result, we believe that reporting results of operations that exclude the effects of foreign currency rate fluctuations on certain financial results can facilitate analysis of period to period comparisons. This constant currency information assumes the same foreign currency exchange rates that were in effect for the comparable prior-year period were used in translation of the current period results. As such, the differences noted below between reported results of operations and constant currency information is wholly attributable to the effects of foreign currency rate fluctuations.

The $49 million increase in depreciation and amortization for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 was primarily the result of an increase in amortization of capitalized software and of intangible assets from acquisitions occurring in 2022 and 2023.
The $36 million increase in depreciation and amortization for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 was primarily the result of an increase in amortization of capitalized software and of intangible assets from acquisitions occurring in 2022 and 2023, offset by less amortization from certain intangible assets from the merger between Quintiles and IMS Health and less accelerated amortization related to the abandonment of certain software assets.

The restructuring costs incurred during 2023 and 2022 were due to ongoing efforts to streamline our global operations and reduce overcapacity to adapt to changing market conditions and integrate acquisitions. These restructuring actions are expected to occur throughout 2023 and into 2024 and are expected to consist of consolidating functional activities, eliminating redundant positions and aligning resources with customer requirements.

Interest income includes interest received primarily from bank balances and investments. The increase for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to the same periods in 2022 is primarily a result of higher deposit rates.
Interest expense during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 increased compared to the same periods in 2022 primarily due to higher base rate interest costs across the floating rate debt portfolio as well as from an increase in our net debt.

Income Tax Expense

(in millions) 2023 2022 2023 2022
Income tax expense $ 51  $ 70  $ 203  $ 212 
Our effective income tax rate was 14.6% and 19.4% in the third quarter of 2023 and 2022, and 18.7% and 19.5% in the first nine months of 2023 and 2022, respectively. Our effective income tax rate in the third quarter and first nine months of 2023 was favorably impacted by a reversal of uncertain tax positions relating to tax credit carryforwards in the amount of $21 million. Additionally, our effective income tax rate in the third quarter and in the first nine months of 2023 and 2022 was favorably impacted as a result of excess tax benefits recognized upon settlement of share-based compensation awards. For the third quarter of 2023 and 2022 this impact was $2 million and $1 million, respectively, and for the first nine months of 2023 and 2022 this impact was $12 million and $15 million, respectively.
Historically, we recorded deferred tax assets related to certain foreign tax credits. A full valuation allowance in relation to these foreign tax credits was established as it was not expected the credits would be utilized prior to expiration. As a result of an anticipated internal legal entity restructuring, we now believe it is reasonably possible that these foreign tax credits will be utilized and expect to reverse the valuation allowance in the near term which could create a material discrete tax benefit in the period recorded.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
We assess our liquidity in terms of our ability to generate cash to fund our operating, investing and financing activities. Our principal source of liquidity is operating cash flows. In addition to operating cash flows, other significant factors that affect our overall management of liquidity include: capital expenditures, acquisitions, investments, debt service requirements, equity repurchases, adequacy of our revolving credit and receivables financing facilities, and access to the capital markets.
We manage our worldwide cash requirements by monitoring the funds available among our subsidiaries and determining the extent to which those funds can be accessed on a cost-effective basis. The repatriation of cash balances from certain of our subsidiaries could have adverse tax consequences; however, those balances are generally available without legal restrictions to fund ordinary business operations. We have and expect to transfer cash from those subsidiaries to the United States and to other international subsidiaries when it is cost effective to do so.
We had a cash balance of $1,224 million as of September 30, 2023 ($406 million of which was in the United States), an increase from $1,216 million as of December 31, 2022.
Based on our current operating plan, we believe that our available cash and cash equivalents, future cash flows from operations and our ability to access funds under our revolving credit and receivables financing facilities will enable us to fund our operating requirements, capital expenditures, contractual obligations, and meet debt obligations for at least the next 12 months. We regularly evaluate our debt arrangements, as well as market conditions, and from time to time we may explore opportunities to modify our existing debt arrangements or pursue additional financing arrangements that could result in the issuance of new debt securities by us or our affiliates. We may use our existing cash, cash generated from operations or dispositions of assets or businesses and/or proceeds from any new financing arrangements or issuances of debt or equity securities to repay or reduce some of our outstanding obligations, to repurchase shares from our stockholders or for other purposes. As part of our ongoing business strategy, we also continually evaluate new acquisition, expansion and investment possibilities or other strategic growth opportunities, as well as potential dispositions of assets or businesses, as appropriate, including dispositions that may cause us to recognize a loss on certain assets. Should we elect to pursue any such transaction, we may seek to obtain debt or equity financing to facilitate those activities. Our ability to enter into any such potential transactions and our use of cash or proceeds is limited to varying degrees by the terms and restrictions contained in our existing debt arrangements. We cannot provide assurances that we will be able to complete any such financing arrangements or other transactions on favorable terms or at all.
Equity Repurchase Program
On July 31, 2023, our Board of Directors increased the stock repurchase authorization under our equity repurchase program (the "Repurchase Program") with respect to the repurchase of our common stock by an additional $2,000 million, which increased the total amount that has been authorized under the Repurchase Program to $11,725 million. The Repurchase Program does not obligate us to repurchase any particular amount of common stock, and it may be modified, extended, suspended or discontinued at any time.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we repurchased 3.9 million shares of our common stock for $763 million under the Repurchase Program. As of September 30, 2023, we had remaining authorization to repurchase up to $2,592 million of our common stock under the Repurchase Program. In addition, from time to time, we have repurchased and may continue to repurchase common stock through private or other transactions outside of the Repurchase Program.
Debt
As of September 30, 2023, we had $13,689 million of total indebtedness, excluding $1,745 million of additional available borrowings under our revolving credit facility. Our long-term debt arrangements contain customary restrictive covenants and, as of September 30, 2023, we believe we were in compliance with our restrictive covenants in all material respects.

As of September 30, 2023, our Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement provided financing through the senior secured credit facilities of up to $7,998 million, which consisted of $6,248 million principal amounts of debt outstanding, and $1,745 million of available borrowing capacity on the revolving credit facility and standby letters of credit.
On April 17, 2023, we increased the capacity of our senior secured revolving credit facility by $500 million U.S. dollars, bringing the total capacity of the revolving credit facility to $2,000 million.
Senior Notes
On May 23, 2023, we completed the issuance and sale of $750 million in gross proceeds of 5.700% senior secured notes due 2028 (the “Senior Secured Notes”) and $500 million in gross proceeds of 6.500% senior notes due 2030 (the “Senior Notes” and, together with the Senior Secured Notes, the “Notes”). The net proceeds from the notes offering were used to repay existing borrowings under our revolving credit facility and to pay fees and expenses related to the Notes offering. See Note 7 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional details regarding our credit arrangements.

Purchases of Equity Securities by the Issuer
On October 30, 2013, the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") approved an equity repurchase program (the “Repurchase Program”) authorizing the repurchase of up to $125 million of our common stock. The Board increased the stock repurchase authorization under the Repurchase Program with respect to the repurchase of the Company's common stock by $600 million, $1.5 billion, $2.0 billion, $1.5 billion, $2.0 billion, and $2.0 billion in 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, and 2022, respectively. On July 31, 2023, the Board increased the stock repurchase authorization under the Repurchase Program by an additional $2,000 million, which increased the total amount that has been authorized under the Repurchase Program to $11,725 million. The Repurchase Program does not obligate us to repurchase any particular amount of common stock, and it may be modified, extended, suspended or discontinued at any time. The timing and amount of repurchases are determined by our management based on a variety of factors such as the market price of our common stock, our corporate requirements, and overall market conditions. Purchases of our common stock may be made in open market transactions effected through a broker-dealer at prevailing market prices, in block trades, or in privately negotiated transactions. The Repurchase Program for common stock does not have an expiration date. In addition, from time to time, we have repurchased and may continue to repurchase common stock through private or other transactions outside of the Repurchase Program.
From inception of the Repurchase Program through September 30, 2023, we have repurchased a total of $9,133 million of our securities under the Repurchase Program.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we repurchased 3.9 million shares of our common stock for $763 million under the Repurchase Program. See Note 9 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional details regarding the Repurchase Program.
As of September 30, 2023, we had remaining authorization to repurchase up to $2,592 million of our common stock under the Repurchase Program.

Since the merger between Quintiles and IMS Health, we have repurchased 77.0 million shares of our common stock at an average market price per share of $113.80 for an aggregate purchase price of $8,759 million both under and outside of the Repurchase Program. This includes shares withheld from employees to satisfy certain tax obligations due in connection with grants of stock under the Quintiles IMS Holdings, Inc. 2017 Incentive and Stock Award Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan provides for the withholding of shares to satisfy tax obligations. It does not specify a maximum number of shares that can be withheld for this purpose. The shares of common stock withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations may be deemed to be “issuer purchases” of shares that are required to be disclosed pursuant to this Item.
The following table summarizes the monthly equity repurchase program activity for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and the approximate dollar value of shares that may yet be purchased pursuant to the Repurchase Program.
(in millions, except per share data) Total Number of Shares Purchased Average Price Paid Per Share Total Number of Shares Purchased as Part of Publicly Announced Plans or Programs Approximate Dollar Value of Shares That May Yet Be Purchased Under the Plans or Programs
