Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements have been included. Such adjustments consisted of normal recurring items. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. The consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes are presented as permitted by Form 10-Q and do not contain certain information included in the annual consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes of Fiserv, Inc. (the “Company”). These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Fiserv, Inc. and its subsidiaries in which the Company holds a majority controlling financial interest. All intercompany transactions and balances between the Company and its subsidiaries have been eliminated in consolidation. Control is typically established when ownership and voting interests in an entity are greater than 50%. Investments in which the Company has significant influence but not control are accounted for using the equity method of accounting, for which the Company’s share of net income or loss is reported within income (loss) from investments in unconsolidated affiliates and the related tax expense or benefit is reported within the income tax provision in the consolidated statements of income. Significant influence over an affiliate’s operations generally coincides with an ownership interest of between 20% and 50%; however, for partnerships and limited liability companies, an ownership interest of between 3% and 50% or board of director representation may also constitute significant influence.
The Company maintains a majority controlling financial interest in certain entities, mostly related to consolidated merchant alliances (see Note 18). Noncontrolling interests represent the minority shareholders’ share of the net income or loss and equity in consolidated subsidiaries. The Company’s noncontrolling interests presented in the consolidated statements of income include net income attributable to noncontrolling interests and redeemable noncontrolling interests. Noncontrolling interests are presented as a component of equity in the consolidated balance sheets. Noncontrolling interests that are redeemable upon the occurrence of an event that is not solely within the Company’s control are presented outside of equity and are carried at their estimated redemption value if it exceeds the initial carrying value of the redeemable interest (see Note 10).
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S.”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. The Company has determined that there have been no material changes to its estimates and assumptions within its consolidated financial statements to date as a result of the continuing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company will continue to monitor developments related to the COVID-19 pandemic; however, the extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic may impact the Company’s future operational and financial performance remains uncertain and difficult to predict.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and investments with original maturities of 90 days or less. Cash and cash equivalents are stated at cost in the consolidated balance sheets, which approximates market value. Cash and cash equivalents that were restricted from use due to regulatory or other requirements are included in other long-term assets in the consolidated balance sheets. Cash and cash equivalents held on behalf of merchants and other payees are included in settlement assets in the consolidated balance sheets.

Table of Contents                                 
The following table provides a reconciliation between cash and cash equivalents on the consolidated balance sheets and the consolidated statements of cash flows at:

Other restricted cash7 9 9 
Total cash and cash equivalents on the consolidated statements of cash flows
$3,375 $3,205 $2,978 
The Company revised the consolidated statement of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 to reflect settlement cash and cash equivalents within settlement assets as a component of total cash and cash equivalents on the consolidated statement of cash flows. The changes in settlement cash and cash equivalents for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 of $114 million and $386 million, respectively, have been included in settlement activity, net within cash flows from financing activities.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
The Company analyzes the collectability of trade accounts receivable by considering historical bad debts, client creditworthiness, current economic trends, changes in client payment terms and collection trends when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts. Any change in the assumptions used in analyzing a specific account receivable may result in an additional allowance for doubtful accounts being recognized in the period in which the change occurs. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $47 million and $55 million at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
Settlement Assets and Obligations
Settlement assets and obligations result from timing differences between collection and fulfillment of payment transactions and collateral amounts held to manage merchant credit risk, primarily associated with the Company’s merchant acquiring services. Settlement assets represent cash received or amounts receivable from agents, payment networks, bank partners, merchants or directly from consumers. Settlement obligations represent amounts payable to merchants and payees. Certain merchant settlement asset receivables that relate to settlement obligations are held by partner banks to which the Company does not have legal ownership but has the right to use the assets to satisfy the related settlement obligations. The Company records settlement obligations for amounts payable to merchants and for outstanding payment instruments issued to payees that have not yet been presented for settlement.
Allowance for Merchant Credit Losses
With respect to the Company’s merchant acquiring business, the Company’s merchant customers have the legal obligation to refund any charges properly reversed by the cardholder. However, in the event the Company is not able to collect the refunded amounts from the merchants, the Company may be liable for the reversed charges. The Company’s risk in this area primarily relates to situations where the cardholder has purchased goods or services to be delivered in the future. The Company requires cash deposits, guarantees, letters of credit or other types of collateral from certain merchants to minimize this risk. Collateral held by the Company, or funds held by partner banks for the Company’s benefit, is classified within settlement assets and the obligation to repay the collateral is classified within settlement obligations in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company also utilizes a number of systems and procedures to manage merchant credit risk. Despite these efforts, the Company experiences some level of losses due to merchant defaults.
The aggregate merchant credit loss expense, recognized by the Company within cost of processing and services in the consolidated statements of income, was $18 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The aggregate merchant credit loss expense recognized by the Company was not significant for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The Company recognized aggregate merchant credit loss expense of $46 million and $31 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The amount of collateral available to the Company was $1.9 billion and $2.2 billion at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The Company maintains an allowance for merchant credit losses that are expected to exceed the amount of merchant collateral. The allowance includes estimated losses from anticipated chargebacks and fraud events that have been incurred on merchants’ payment transactions that have been processed but not yet reported to the Company, which is recorded within accounts payable and accrued expenses in the consolidated balance sheets, as well as estimated losses on refunded amounts to cardholders that have not yet been collected from the merchants, which is recorded within prepaid expenses and other current assets in the consolidated balance sheets. The allowance is based primarily
6

Table of Contents                                 
on the Company’s historical experience of credit losses and other relevant factors such as changes in economic conditions or increases in merchant fraud. The aggregate merchant credit loss allowance was $32 million and $42 million at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the fair value of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. The Company evaluates goodwill for impairment on an annual basis, or more frequently if circumstances indicate possible impairment. Goodwill is tested for impairment at a reporting unit level, which is one level below the Company’s reportable segments. The Company’s most recent annual impairment assessment of its reporting units in the fourth quarter of 2021 determined that its goodwill was not impaired as the estimated fair values exceeded the carrying values. However, it is reasonably possible that future developments related to the interest rate environment, the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, or significant changes in the composition of, or assumptions used in, the quantitative test on certain of the Company’s reporting units (such as an increase in risk-adjusted discount rates) could have a future material impact on one or more of the estimates and assumptions used to evaluate goodwill impairment. There is no accumulated goodwill impairment for the Company through September 30, 2022.
Other Investments
The Company maintains investments, of which it does not have significant influence, in various equity securities without a readily determinable fair value. Such investments totaled $141 million and $113 million at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, and are included within other long-term assets in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company reviews these investments each reporting period to determine whether an impairment or observable price change for the investment has occurred. To the extent such events or changes occur, the Company evaluates the fair value compared to its cost basis in the investment. Gains or losses from a sale of these investments or a change in fair value are included within other (expense) income in the consolidated statement of income for the period. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company remeasured its equity interest in Ondot Systems, Inc. (“Ondot”) to fair value upon acquiring a remaining ownership interest, resulting in the recognition of a pre-tax gain of $12 million (see Note 4). Other adjustments made to the values recorded for certain equity securities and gains and losses from sales of equity securities during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, were not significant.
Derivatives
Derivatives are entered into for periods consistent with related underlying exposures and are recorded in the consolidated balance sheets as either an asset or liability measured at fair value. If the derivative is designated as a cash flow hedge, changes in the fair value of the derivative are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss and recognized in the consolidated statements of income when the hedged item affects earnings. If the derivative is designated as a net investment hedge, changes in the fair value of the derivative are recorded in the foreign currency translation component of other comprehensive loss until the net investment is sold, diluted, or liquidated. If the derivative is designated as a fair value hedge, changes in the fair value of the derivative are recorded in the same line item as the changes in the fair value of the hedged item and recognized in the consolidated statements of income. To the extent a derivative is not designated as a hedge, changes in fair value are recognized in the consolidated statements of income. The Company’s policy is to enter into derivatives with creditworthy institutions and not to enter into such derivatives for speculative purposes.
Interest Expense, Net
Interest expense, net consists of interest expense primarily associated with the Company’s outstanding borrowings and finance lease obligations, as well as interest income primarily associated with the Company’s investment securities. Interest expense, net consisted of the following:

2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2022-03, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions (“ASU 2022-03”), which clarifies the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement (“Topic 820”), when measuring the fair value of an equity security subject to contractual restrictions that prohibit the sale of an equity security and introduces new disclosure requirements for equity securities subject to contractual sale restrictions that are measured at fair value in accordance with Topic 820. For public entities, ASU 2022-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The provisions within ASU 2022-03 are to be applied prospectively with any adjustments from the adoption recognized in earnings and disclosed on the date of adoption. The Company is currently assessing the impact the adoption of ASU 2022-03 will have on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
In 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-02, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures (“ASU 2022-02”), which among other items, requires that entities disclose current period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables and net investments in leases. For public entities, the provisions within ASU 2022-02 are to be applied prospectively and are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company will adopt the additional disclosures, as applicable, for any write-offs reflected in its consolidated financial statements effective for the year ending December 31, 2023.
In 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-10, Government Assistance (Topic 832) (“ASU 2021-10”), which requires that an entity provide certain disclosures in its annual financial statements about transactions with a government that are accounted for by applying a grant or contribution accounting model by analogy. ASU 2021-10 is effective for all business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2021 and may be applied either prospectively or retrospectively to the transactions reflected in the financial statements at the date of initial application. The Company will adopt the additional disclosures prospectively, as applicable, to the transactions reflected in its consolidated financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2022.
In 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-08, Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2021-08”), which requires that an entity recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”). Generally, this should result in recognition and measurement of contract assets and contract liabilities at carryover value consistent with how they were recognized and measured in the acquiree’s financial statements, providing consistent recognition and enhanced comparability with revenue contracts with customers not acquired in a business combination. Prior to adoption of ASU 2021-08, an acquirer generally recognized contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination at fair value on the acquisition date. For public entities, ASU 2021-08 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. Entities are required to apply a prospective transition approach upon adoption, unless early adoption occurs in an interim period. The Company adopted ASU 2021-08 effective January 1, 2022, with prospective application to business combinations occurring after adoption.
In 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-05, Leases (Topic 842): Lessors – Certain Leases with Variable Lease Payments (“ASU 2021-05”), which amends the lease classification requirements for lessors with certain leases containing variable payments. A lessor is to classify and account for a lease with variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate as an operating lease if the lease would have been classified as a sales-type lease or a direct financing lease and the lessor would have otherwise recognized a day-one loss. For public entities, ASU 2021-05 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. Entities that have adopted ASC Topic 842 prior to the issuance of ASU 2021-05 may apply this update either retrospectively to leases that commenced or were modified on or after the adoption of ASC Topic 842 or prospectively to leases that commence or are modified on or after the date the entity first applies ASU 2021-05. The Company adopted ASU 2021-05 effective January 1, 2022, with prospective application to leases commencing or modified thereafter, and the adoption did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
3. Revenue Recognition
The Company generates revenue from the delivery of processing, service and product solutions. Revenue is measured based on consideration specified in a contract with a customer, and excludes any amounts collected on behalf of third parties. The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control over a product or service to a customer which may be at a point in time or over time.

(In millions)September 30, 2022December 31, 2021
Contract assets$546 $541 
Contract liabilities761 810 
Contract assets, reported within other long-term assets in the consolidated balance sheets, primarily result from revenue being recognized where payment is contingent upon the transfer of services to a customer over the contractual period. Contract liabilities primarily relate to advance consideration received from customers (deferred revenue) for which transfer of control occurs, and therefore revenue is recognized, as services are provided. Contract balances are reported in a net contract asset or liability position on a contract-by-contract basis at the end of each reporting period. The Company recognized $499 million of revenue during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 that was included in the contract liability balance at the beginning of the period.
Transaction Price Allocated to Remaining Performance Obligations
The following table includes estimated processing, services and product revenue expected to be recognized in the future related to performance obligations that were unsatisfied (or partially unsatisfied) at September 30, 2022:

The Company applies the optional exemption under ASC 606 and does not disclose information about remaining performance obligations for account- and transaction-based processing fees that qualify for recognition under the as-invoiced practical expedient. These multi-year contracts contain variable consideration for stand-ready performance obligations for which the exact quantity and mix of transactions to be processed are contingent upon the customer’s request. The Company also applies the optional exemptions under ASC 606 and does not disclose information for variable consideration that is a sales-based or usage-based royalty promised in exchange for a license of intellectual property or that is allocated entirely to a wholly unsatisfied performance obligation or to a wholly unsatisfied promise to transfer a distinct good or service in a series. The amounts disclosed above as remaining performance obligations consist primarily of fixed or monthly minimum processing fees and maintenance fees under contracts with an original expected duration of greater than one year.

4. Acquisitions and Dispositions
Acquisitions were accounted for as business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations. Purchase price was allocated to the respective assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on the estimated fair values at the date of acquisitions.
Acquisition of Finxact
On April 1, 2022, the Company acquired a remaining ownership interest in Finxact, Inc. (“Finxact”), a developer of cloud-native banking solutions powering digital transformation throughout the financial services sector, for approximately $645 million, net of $27 million of acquired cash. The Company previously held a noncontrolling equity interest in Finxact, which was accounted for under the equity method. The remeasurement of the Company’s previously held equity interest to its acquisition-date fair value resulted in the recognition of a pre-tax gain of approximately $110 million, included within income (loss) from investments in unconsolidated affiliates during the nine months ended September 30, 2022. Finxact is included within the Fintech segment and advances the Company’s digital banking strategy, expanding its account processing, digital, and payments solutions.
During the three months ended September 30, 2022, the Company identified and recorded measurement period adjustments to the preliminary Finxact purchase price allocation, including refinements to valuations of acquired intangible assets, which were the result of additional analysis performed and information identified based on facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date. These measurement period adjustments resulted in a decrease of goodwill of approximately $3 million, with offsetting amounts to the change in goodwill primarily attributable to an increase in identifiable intangible assets, including acquired software and technology. Such measurement period adjustments did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated statements of income.
The preliminary allocation of purchase price for Finxact is as follows:

Cash$27 
Other net assets3 
Intangible assets105 
Goodwill668 
Total consideration$803 
Less: fair value of previously held equity interest(131)
Total purchase price$672 
Identifiable intangible assets consist primarily of acquired software and technology, with a weighted average useful life of six years. The allocation of the purchase price is preliminary and is subject to further adjustment, pending additional refinement and final completion of valuations. Goodwill, not expected to be deductible for tax purposes, is primarily attributed to the anticipated value created by the combined scale, core platform modernization, and accelerated delivery of enhanced digital banking solutions offered to financial institutions of all sizes.
The results of operations for Finxact are included in the consolidated results of the Company from the date of acquisition. Pro forma information for this acquisition is not provided because it did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated results of operations.

During 2022, the Company identified and recorded measurement period adjustments to the preliminary BentoBox purchase price allocation, including refinements to valuations of acquired intangible assets, which were the result of additional analysis performed and information identified based on facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date. These measurement period adjustments resulted in an increase to goodwill of $62 million, with offsetting amounts to the change in goodwill attributable to a decrease in identifiable intangible assets, including acquired software and technology, of $84 million and deferred tax adjustments of $22 million.

6. Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates
The Company maintains investments in various affiliates that are accounted for as equity method investments, the most significant of which are related to the Company’s merchant alliances. The Company’s share of net income or loss from these investments is reported within income (loss) from investments in unconsolidated affiliates and the related tax expense or benefit is reported within the income tax provision in the consolidated statements of income.
The Company maintains noncontrolling ownership interests in defi SOLUTIONS Group, LLC and Sagent M&C, LLC (collectively the “Lending Joint Ventures”), respectively, which are accounted for under the equity method. In March 2022, Sagent M&C, LLC (“Sagent”) completed a transaction with a third party for the contribution from and the sale by such third party to Sagent of certain intangible and tangible personal property rights, resulting in a dilution of the Company’s ownership interest in Sagent. As a result of the transaction, the Company recognized a pre-tax gain of $80 million within income (loss) from investments in unconsolidated affiliates, with related tax expense of $19 million recorded through the income tax provision, in the consolidated statement of income during the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The Company’s remaining noncontrolling ownership interest in Sagent continues to be accounted for as an equity method investment.
The Lending Joint Ventures maintain, as amended in April 2022, variable-rate term loan facilities with aggregate outstanding borrowings of $437 million in senior unsecured debt at September 30, 2022 and variable-rate revolving credit facilities with an aggregate borrowing capacity of $83 million with a syndicate of banks, which mature in April 2027. There were no outstanding borrowings on the revolving credit facilities at September 30, 2022. The Company has guaranteed this amended debt of the

Lending Joint Ventures and does not anticipate that the Lending Joint Ventures will fail to fulfill their debt obligations. See Note 7 for additional information.
The Company previously maintained a noncontrolling interest in Tegra118, LLC (“Tegra118”) which was accounted for under the equity method. In February 2021, Tegra118 completed a merger with a third party, resulting in a dilution of the Company’s ownership interest in the combined new entity, Wealthtech Holdings, LLC, which was subsequently renamed as InvestCloud Holdings, LLC (“InvestCloud”). In connection with the transaction, the Company made an additional capital contribution of $200 million into the combined entity and recognized a pre-tax gain of $28 million within income (loss) from investments in unconsolidated affiliates, with related tax expense of $6 million recorded through the income tax provision, in the consolidated statement of income during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. On June 30, 2021, the Company sold its remaining equity method ownership interest in InvestCloud for $466 million, resulting in a pre-tax gain of $33 million recorded within income (loss) from investments in unconsolidated affiliates in the consolidated statements of income, with related tax expense of $8 million recorded through the income tax provision, during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The Company continues to provide various technical and data center related services under the terms of a pre-existing transition services agreement with InvestCloud.
7. Fair Value Measurements
The fair values of cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, settlement assets and obligations, accounts payable, and client deposits approximate their respective carrying values due to the short period of time to maturity. The Company maintains forward exchange contracts, designated as cash flow hedges, to hedge foreign currency exposure. The Company also maintains cross-currency rate swap contracts, designated as net investment hedges, to hedge a portion of its net investment in certain subsidiaries whose functional currencies are the Euro. These derivative instruments are measured on a recurring basis based on foreign currency spot rates and forwards quoted by banks and foreign currency dealers and are marked to market each period (see Note 12). Contingent consideration related to certain of the Company’s acquisitions (see Note 4) is estimated based on the present value of a probability-weighted assessment approach derived from the likelihood of achieving the earn-out criteria. The fair value of the Company’s contingent liability for current expected credit losses associated with its debt guarantees, as further described below, is estimated based on assumptions of future risk of default and the corresponding level of credit losses at the time of default.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis consisted of the following:

The Company’s senior notes are recorded at amortized cost but measured at fair value for disclosure purposes. The estimated fair value of senior notes was based on matrix pricing which considers readily observable inputs of comparable securities (Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy). The carrying value of the Company’s foreign lines of credit, term loan credit agreement, commercial paper notes and revolving credit facility borrowings approximates fair value as these instruments have variable interest rates and the Company has not experienced any change to its credit ratings (Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy). The estimated fair value of total debt, excluding finance leases and other financing obligations, was $18.8 billion and $21.8 billion at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, and the carrying value was $20.5 billion and $20.4 billion at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

The Company maintains liabilities for its obligations to perform over the term of its debt guarantee arrangements with the Lending Joint Ventures (see Note 6), which are reported within accounts payable and accrued expenses, and other long-term liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. In April 2022, the Lending Joint Ventures amended their respective term loans and revolving credit facilities, increasing aggregate borrowing capacity by $75 million and extending the maturity to April 2027. The Company elected to guarantee this incremental indebtedness, resulting in aggregate guarantees of $520 million and a pre-tax expense of $62 million, recorded within other (expense) income in the consolidated statement of income and within other operating activities in the consolidated statement of cash flows, during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 related to such debt guarantee obligations. The Company is entitled to receive a defined fee in exchange for its incremental guarantee of this indebtedness. The Company has not made any payments under the guarantees, nor has it been called upon to do so, and does not anticipate that the Lending Joint Ventures will fail to fulfill their debt obligations.
The non-contingent component of the Company’s debt guarantee arrangements is recorded at amortized cost, but measured at fair value for disclosure purposes. The carrying value of the Company’s non-contingent liability of $43 million and $10 million approximates the fair value at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively (Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy). Such guarantees will be amortized in future periods over the contractual term of the debt. The contingent component of the Company’s debt guarantee arrangements represents the current expected credit losses to which the Company is exposed. The amount of the liability is estimated based on certain financial metrics of the Lending Joint Ventures and historical industry data, which is used to develop assumptions of the likelihood the guaranteed parties will default and the level of credit losses in the event a default occurs. The Company recognized $2 million and $3 million during the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $8 million and $9 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, within other (expense) income in its consolidated statements of income related to its release from risk under the non-contingent guarantees as well as a change in the provision of estimated credit losses associated with the indebtedness of the joint ventures.
Certain of the Company’s non-financial assets are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis, including property and equipment, lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, equity securities without a readily determinable fair value, goodwill and other intangible assets, and are subject to fair value adjustment in certain circumstances.

At September 30, 2022, the 0.375% Euro-denominated senior notes due in July 2023 were classified in the consolidated balance sheet as long-term, as the Company has the intent to refinance this debt on a long-term basis and the ability to do so under its revolving credit facility.
In July 2022, the Company redeemed $700 million in aggregate principal amount of its outstanding 3.50% senior notes due in October 2022 at a redemption price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the notes being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest. The Company financed the redemption of these notes using proceeds from the issuance of U.S. dollar commercial paper. The Company also repaid $485 million, representing all amounts outstanding on its receivable securitized loan, in July 2022 using proceeds from the issuance of U.S. dollar commercial paper and terminated the underlying receivables financing agreement.
In June 2022, the Company entered into a new senior unsecured multicurrency revolving credit facility with substantially the same syndicate of banks that were lenders under its existing amended and restated revolving credit facility, which the Company voluntarily terminated and replaced. The new credit agreement matures in June 2027 and provides for a maximum aggregate principal amount of availability of $6.0 billion. Borrowings under the new credit facility bear interest at a variable rate based on a Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), or a base rate in the case of U.S. dollar borrowings, in each case, plus a specified margin based on the Company’s long-term debt rating in effect from time to time (4.23% at September 30, 2022). The credit facility also requires the Company to pay a facility fee based on the aggregate commitments in effect under the agreement

from time to time. The new credit facility contains various restrictions and covenants that require the Company to, among other things, limit its consolidated indebtedness as of the end of each fiscal quarter to no more than 3.75 times the Company’s consolidated net income before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, non-cash charges and expenses and certain other adjustments (“EBITDA”) during the period of four fiscal quarters then ended, subject to certain exceptions. The Company was in compliance with all financial debt covenants during the first nine months of 2022.
The Company maintains unsecured U.S. dollar and Euro commercial paper programs. From time to time, the Company may issue under these programs U.S. dollar commercial paper with maturities of up to 397 days from the date of issuance and Euro commercial paper with maturities of up to 183 days from the date of issuance. Outstanding borrowings under the U.S. dollar program were $2.6 billion and $916 million at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, with weighted average interest rates of 3.369% and 0.295%, respectively. Outstanding borrowings under the Euro program were $1.1 billion and $905 million at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, with weighted average interest rates of 0.804% and (0.420)%, respectively. The Company intends to maintain available capacity under its revolving credit facility in an amount at least equal to the aggregate outstanding borrowings under its commercial paper programs. Outstanding borrowings under the commercial paper programs are classified in the consolidated balance sheets as long-term as the Company has the intent to refinance this commercial paper on a long-term basis through the continued issuance of new commercial paper upon maturity, and the Company also has the ability to refinance such commercial paper under its revolving credit facility.
10. Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests
The minority partner in one of the Company’s existing merchant alliance joint ventures maintains a redeemable noncontrolling interest which is presented outside of equity and carried at its estimated redemption value. The minority partner owns 1% of the equity in the joint venture; in addition, the minority partner is entitled to a contractually determined share of the entity’s income. The agreement contains redemption features whereby the interest held by the minority partner is redeemable either (i) at the option of the holder or (ii) upon the occurrence of an event that is not solely within the Company’s control. The joint venture may be terminated by either party for convenience any time after December 31, 2024. In the event of termination for cause, as a result of a change in control, or for convenience after the predetermined date, the Company may be required to purchase the minority partner membership interest at a price equal to the fair market value of the minority interest through a distribution in the form of cash, certain merchant contracts of the joint venture, or a combination thereof to the minority partner. In conjunction with the termination of the joint venture, the minority partner may also exercise an option to purchase certain additional merchant contracts at fair market value.
Effective March 2, 2022, the Company and a joint venture minority partner mutually terminated one of the Company’s merchant alliance joint ventures in which the minority partner held a redeemable noncontrolling interest. In conjunction with this termination, the joint venture minority partner elected to exercise its option to purchase certain additional merchant contracts of the joint venture. The Company received proceeds of $175 million from the sale of such merchant contracts of the joint venture, resulting in the recognition of a pre-tax gain of $147 million within net (gain) loss on sale of business and other assets, with related tax expense of $9 million recorded through the income tax provision, in the consolidated statement of income during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Cash Flow Hedges
The Company maintains forward exchange contracts, designated as cash flow hedges, to hedge foreign currency exposure to the Indian Rupee (see Note 7). The notional amount of these derivatives was $353 million and $341 million at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Based on the amounts recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss at September 30, 2022, the Company estimates that it will recognize losses of approximately $9 million in cost of processing and services during the next twelve months as foreign exchange forward contracts settle.
The Company previously entered into treasury lock agreements (“Treasury Locks”), designated as cash flow hedges, to manage exposure to fluctuations in benchmark interest rates in anticipation of the issuance of fixed rate debt in connection with the acquisition and refinancing of certain indebtedness of First Data Corporation (“First Data”) and its subsidiaries. In June 2019, concurrent with the issuance of U.S dollar-denominated senior notes, the Treasury Locks were settled resulting in a loss, net of income taxes, and recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss that is being amortized to earnings over the terms of the originally forecasted interest payments. The unamortized balance recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss related to the Treasury Locks was $134 million and $145 million at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Based on the amounts recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss at September 30, 2022, the Company estimates that it will recognize approximately $15 million in net interest expense during the next twelve months related to settled interest rate hedge contracts.
Net Investment Hedges
To reduce exposure to changes in the value of the Company’s net investments in certain of its foreign currency-denominated subsidiaries due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, the Company has entered into fixed-to-fixed cross-currency rate swap contracts and also uses its foreign currency-denominated debt as economic hedges of its net investments in such foreign currency-denominated subsidiaries. At September 30, 2022, aggregate notional cross-currency rate swaps of €160 million were designated as net investment hedges to hedge a portion of the Company’s net investment in certain subsidiaries whose functional currency is the Euro. The Company has designated its Euro- and British Pound-denominated senior notes and Euro commercial paper notes as net investment hedges to hedge a portion of its net investment in certain subsidiaries whose functional currencies are the Euro and the British Pound.
The following table outlines the terms of the Company’s cross-currency rate swap contracts at September 30, 2022:
Effective Date of ContractMaturity Date of ContractNotional Amount (EUR)Fixed Rate Paid (EUR)Fixed Rate Received (USD)
September 1, 2022June 1, 202580 million2.096 %3.85 %
September 15, 2022July 1, 202680 million1.635 %3.20 %
Foreign currency transaction gains or losses on the qualifying net investment hedge instruments are recorded as foreign currency translation within other comprehensive loss in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) and will remain in accumulated other comprehensive loss in the consolidated balance sheets until the sale or complete liquidation of the underlying foreign subsidiaries.
Foreign currency transaction gains related to net investment hedges that were recorded in other comprehensive loss in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) were as follows:

13. Share-Based Compensation
The Company recognized $89 million and $63 million of share-based compensation expense during the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $244 million and $190 million of share-based compensation expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company’s share-based compensation awards are typically granted in the first quarter of the year, and may also occur throughout the year in conjunction with acquisitions of businesses. At September 30, 2022, the total remaining unrecognized compensation cost for unvested stock options, restricted stock units and awards and performance share units, net of estimated forfeitures, of $563 million is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.2 years.

The income tax provision as a percentage of income before income taxes and income (loss) from investments in unconsolidated affiliates was 22.5% and 11.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and was 19.7% and 23.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
The effective income tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2021 included discrete tax benefits from subsidiary restructurings and changes in uncertain tax positions.
24

Table of Contents                                 
The effective income tax rate for each of the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 includes discrete tax benefits from subsidiary restructurings and equity compensation related tax benefits. The effective income tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 also included $134 million of income tax expense attributed to the revaluation of certain net deferred tax liabilities, primarily related to intangible assets and investments in joint ventures recognized at fair value in connection with the acquisition of First Data, reflecting the effect of enacted corporate income tax rate changes in the United Kingdom (tax rate increase from 19% to 25% starting in 2023) and Argentina (tax rate increase from 25% to 35%).
The Company’s potential liability for unrecognized tax benefits before interest and penalties was approximately $108 million at September 30, 2022. The Company believes it is reasonably possible that the liability for unrecognized tax benefits may decrease by up to $5 million over the next twelve months as a result of possible closure of tax audits, potential audit settlements, and the lapse of the statutes of limitation in various jurisdictions.
As of September 30, 2022, the Company’s U.S. federal income tax return for 2021, and tax returns in certain states and foreign jurisdictions for 2015 through 2021, remain subject to examination by taxing authorities.

Litigation
In the normal course of business, the Company or its subsidiaries are named as defendants in lawsuits in which claims are asserted against the Company. The Company maintained accruals of $24 million and $32 million at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, related to its various legal proceedings, primarily associated with the Company’s merchant acquiring business and certain tax matters. The Company’s estimate of the possible range of exposure for various litigation matters in excess of amounts accrued is $0 million to approximately $60 million. In the opinion of management, the liabilities,
25

Table of Contents                                 
if any, which may ultimately result from such legal proceedings are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Electronic Payments Transactions
In connection with the Company’s processing of electronic payments transactions, which are separate and distinct from the settlement payment transactions described in Note 1, funds received from subscribers are invested from the time the Company collects the funds until payments are made to the applicable recipients. These subscriber funds are invested in short-term, highly liquid investments. Subscriber funds, which are not included in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets, can fluctuate significantly based on consumer bill payment and debit card activity and totaled approximately $1.6 billion at both September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.
Indemnifications and Warranties
The Company may indemnify its clients from certain costs resulting from claims of patent, copyright or trademark infringement associated with its clients’ use of the Company’s products or services. The Company may also warrant to clients that its products and services will operate substantially in accordance with identified specifications. From time to time, in connection with sales of businesses, the Company agrees to indemnify the buyers of such businesses for liabilities associated with the businesses that are sold. Payments, net of recoveries, under such indemnification or warranty provisions were not material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
18. Related Party Transactions
Merchant Alliances
The Company maintains ownership interests in various merchant alliances. A merchant alliance is an agreement between the Company and a financial institution that combines the processing capabilities and management expertise of the Company with the visibility and distribution channel of the financial institution. A merchant alliance acquires credit and debit card transactions from merchants. The Company provides processing and other services to the alliance and charges fees to the alliance primarily based on contractual pricing.
To the extent the Company maintains a majority controlling financial interest in an alliance, the alliance’s financial statements are consolidated with those of the Company and the related processing fees are treated as an intercompany transaction and eliminated in consolidation. To the extent the Company has significant influence but not control in an alliance, the Company uses the equity method to account for its investment in the alliance. As a result, the processing and other service fees charged to merchant alliances accounted for under the equity method are recognized in the Company’s consolidated statements of income primarily as processing and services revenue. Such fees totaled $47 million and $42 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively and $140 million and $132 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. No directors or officers of the Company have ownership interests in any of the alliances. The formation of each of these alliances generally involves the Company and the financial institution contributing contractual merchant relationships to the alliance and a cash payment from one owner to the other to achieve the desired ownership percentage for each. The Company and the financial institution enter into a long-term processing service agreement as part of the negotiation process. This agreement governs the Company’s provision of transaction processing services to the alliance. The Company had $55 million and $36 million of amounts due from unconsolidated merchant alliances included within trade accounts receivable, net in the consolidated balance sheets at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Industry Trends
The global payments landscape continues to evolve, with rapidly advancing technologies and a steady expansion of digital payments, e-commerce and innovation in real-time payments infrastructure. Because of this growth, competition also continues to evolve. Business and consumer expectations continue to rise, with a focus on convenience and security. To meet these expectations, payments companies are focused on modernizing their technology, expanding the use of data and enhancing the customer experience.
Merchants
The rapid growth in and globalization of mobile and e-commerce, driven by consumers’ desire for simpler, more efficient shopping experiences, has created an opportunity for merchants to reach consumers in high-growth online and mobile settings, which often requires a merchant acquiring provider to enable and optimize the acceptance of payments. Merchants are demanding simpler, integrated, and modern POS systems to help manage their everyday business operations. When combined with the ever-increasing ways a consumer can pay for goods and services, merchants have sought modern POS systems to streamline this complexity. Furthermore, merchants can now search, discover, compare, purchase and even install a new POS system through direct, digital-only experiences. This direct, digital-only channel is quickly becoming a source of new merchant acquisition opportunities, especially with respect to smaller merchants.
31

Table of Contents                                 
In addition, there are numerous software-as-a-service (“SaaS”) solutions in the industry, many of which have chosen to integrate merchant acquiring within their software as a way to further monetize their client relationships. SaaS solutions that integrate payments are often referred to as ISVs, and we believe there are thousands of these potential distribution partnership opportunities available to us.
We believe that our merchant acquiring products and solutions create compelling value propositions for merchant clients of all sizes, from small and mid-sized businesses to medium-sized regional businesses to global enterprise merchants, and across all verticals. Furthermore, we believe that our sizable and diverse client base, combined with valued partnerships with merchant acquiring businesses of small, medium and large financial institutions, and non-financial institutions, gives us a solid foundation for growth.
Financial Institutions
Financial service providers regularly introduce and implement new payment, deposit, risk management, lending and investment products, and the distinctions among the products and services traditionally offered by different types of financial institutions continue to narrow as they seek to serve the same customers. At the same time, the evolving global regulatory and cybersecurity landscape has continued to create a challenging operating environment for financial institutions. These conditions are driving heightened interest in solutions that help financial institutions win and retain customers, generate incremental revenue, comply with regulations and enhance operating efficiency. Examples of these solutions include electronic payments and delivery methods such as internet, mobile and tablet banking, sometimes referred to as “digital channels,” which enable financial institutions to offer their customers an industry-leading digital banking experience.
The focus on digital channels by both financial institutions and their customers, as well as the growing volume and types of payment transactions in the marketplace, continues to elevate the data and transaction processing needs of financial institutions. We expect that financial institutions will continue to invest significant capital and human resources to process transactions, manage information, maintain regulatory compliance and offer innovative new services to their customers in this rapidly evolving and competitive environment. We anticipate that we will benefit over the long term from the trend of financial institutions moving from in-house technology to outsourced solutions as they seek to remain current on technology changes in an evolving marketplace. We believe that economies of scale in developing and maintaining the infrastructure, technology, products, services and networks necessary to be competitive in such an environment are essential to justify these investments, and we anticipate that demand for products that facilitate customer interaction with financial institutions, including a unified, seamless customer experience across mobile and online channels, will continue to increase, which we expect to create revenue opportunities for us.
In addition to the trends described above, during the past 25 years, the number of financial institutions in the U.S. has declined at a relatively steady rate of approximately 3% per year, primarily as a result of voluntary mergers and acquisitions. Rather than reducing the overall market, these consolidations transfer accounts among financial institutions. If a client loss occurs due to merger or acquisition, we typically receive a contract termination fee based on the size of the client and how early in the contract term the contract is terminated. These fees can vary from period to period with the variance depending on the quantum of financial institution merger activity in a given period and whether or not our clients are involved in the activity. Our focus on long-term client relationships and recurring, transaction-oriented products and services has also reduced the impact that consolidation in the financial services industry has had on us. We believe that the integration of our products and services creates a compelling value proposition for our clients by providing, among other things, new sources of revenue and opportunities to reduce their costs. Furthermore, we believe that our sizable and diverse client base, combined with our position as a leading provider of non-discretionary, recurring revenue-based products and services, gives us a solid foundation for growth.
Recent Market Conditions
The coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic has and may continue to impact our employees, clients, vendors, supply chain, operations and sales. Further developments surrounding COVID-19 are uncertain and may impact our future operational and financial performance and remain difficult to predict.
The effects of the macroeconomic environment, including supply chain shortages, higher inflation and interest rates and other global economic conditions, have impacted, and may continue to impact, our business, consumer spending and the economy as a whole. In 2021, we began observing increasing shortages and delays in the global supply chain for components and inputs necessary to our businesses, such as semiconductors, paper and plastic, and we may experience difficulty procuring those components and inputs in the future on a timely basis or at historical prices. In addition to intensified political instability globally, the U.S. and other countries in which we operate are experiencing higher inflation and interest rates and slower growth in 2022. We continue to monitor and actively manage our business in response to these unpredictable geopolitical and market conditions as they may adversely impact our operations and financial results.

Table of Contents                                 
In addition, operating results for certain foreign countries in which we operate may be adversely impacted by fluctuations in exchange rates for currencies other than the U.S. dollar, including the Euro and British pound sterling. In recent months, the U.S. dollar has strengthened against certain foreign currencies in countries in which we operate, which negatively impacts our revenue and earnings. While the majority of our revenue is earned domestically, we continually monitor the foreign exchange rate environment in an effort to help mitigate these risks.
Changes in Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, which require management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. In our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, we identified our critical accounting policies and estimates. We continually evaluate the accounting policies and estimates that we use to prepare our consolidated financial statements, including for recently adopted accounting pronouncements, and base our estimates on historical experience and assumptions that we believe are reasonable in light of current circumstances. Actual amounts and results could differ materially from these estimates. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates from those disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Results of Operations
The following table presents certain amounts included in our consolidated statements of income, the relative percentage that those amounts represent to revenue and the change in those amounts from year to year. This information should be read together with the unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes.

Total Revenue
Total revenue increased $355 million, or 9%, in the third quarter of 2022 and $1,137 million, or 9%, in the first nine months of 2022 compared to 2021. The revenue increase was driven by higher processing revenue and product sales across all of our business segments, and was partially offset by a 2% decrease in both the third quarter and first nine months of 2022 due to foreign exchange fluctuations.
Revenue in our Acceptance segment increased $162 million, or 9%, in the third quarter of 2022 and $653 million, or 14%, in the first nine months of 2022 compared to 2021.

Revenue in our Fintech segment increased $5 million, or 1%, in the third quarter of 2022 and $96 million, or 4%, in the first nine months of 2022 compared to 2021. The revenue increase was primarily driven by higher processing revenue across our Fintech businesses of 2% and 3%, in the third quarter and first nine months of 2022, respectively. The revenue growth in the third quarter of 2022 was partially offset by a 1% decrease in license and termination fee revenue compared to 2021.
Revenue in our Payments segment increased $146 million, or 10%, in the third quarter of 2022 and $300 million, or 7%, in the first nine months of 2022 compared to 2021. In the third quarter and first nine months of 2022, our debit processing business contributed 5% and 4%, respectively, to Payments revenue growth driven by new client wins on our network services; our credit processing business contributed 2% and 1%, respectively, primarily driven by an increase in active accounts; and our Output Solutions business contributed 3% and 2%, respectively, primarily driven by new client growth.
Revenue at Corporate and Other increased $42 million, or 20%, in the third quarter of 2022 and $88 million, or 14%, in the first nine months of 2022 compared to 2021, primarily due to increased postage revenue.
Total Expenses
Total expenses increased $136 million, or 4%, in the third quarter of 2022 and $331 million, or 3%, in the first nine months of 2022 compared to 2021. Total expenses as a percentage of total revenue decreased 360 basis points to 81.1% in the third quarter of 2022 and 480 basis points to 80.5% in the first nine months of 2022 compared to 2021. Total expenses as a percentage of total revenue were favorably impacted in the third quarter and first nine months of 2022 by a $156 million and $368 million, respectively, reduction in acquisition and integration related expense. Total expenses as a percentage of total revenue for the first nine months of 2022 were also favorably impacted by operating leverage accompanying scalable revenue growth, partially offset by increased costs associated with our continued investment in businesses for growth.
Cost of processing and services as a percentage of processing and services revenue decreased to 39.2% in the third quarter of 2022 compared to 44.9% in the third quarter of 2021 and to 40.8% in the first nine months of 2022 compared to 45.1% in the first nine months of 2021. Cost of processing and services as a percentage of processing and services revenue was favorably impacted in the third quarter and first nine months of 2022 by a reduction in acquisition and integration related expenses of approximately 330 basis points and 240 basis points, respectively, as well as strong operating leverage across our businesses. The favorable impact was partially offset by an increase in severance costs of approximately 60 basis points in the first nine months of 2022.
Cost of product as a percentage of product revenue decreased to 65.8% in the third quarter of 2022 compared to 68.9% in the third quarter of 2021 and to 68.9% in the first nine months of 2022 compared to 69.9% in the first nine months of 2021. The cost of product as a percentage of product revenue improved in the third quarter and first nine months of 2022 as a result of revenue mix, including a decrease in lower margin hardware revenue in the third quarter of 2022.
Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenue decreased to 34.2% in the third quarter of 2022 compared to 35.5% in the third quarter of 2021 and to 34.8% in the first nine months of 2022 compared to 35.8% in the first nine months of 2021. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenue in the third quarter and first nine months of 2022 was primarily due to a reduction in amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets of approximately 100 basis points in both the third quarter and first nine months of 2022.
The $120 million pre-tax loss on sale of business in the third quarter of 2022 resulted from the sale of our Korea operations. This loss was offset in the first nine months of 2022 from the $147 million pre-tax gain on sale of assets, which resulted from the sale of certain merchant contracts in conjunction with the mutual termination of one of our merchant alliance joint ventures.

Total operating income increased $219 million, or 34%, in the third quarter of 2022 and $806 million, or 46%, in the first nine months of 2022 compared to 2021. Total operating margin increased 360 basis points to 18.9% in the third quarter of 2022 and 480 basis points to 19.5% in the first nine months of 2022 compared to 2021. Total operating income and total operating margin benefited from revenue growth in the third quarter and first nine months of 2022, along with a reduction in acquisition and integration related expenses. Total operating margin in the third quarter and first nine months of 2022 was slightly offset by costs associated with our continued investments in our businesses for growth as well as increased severance costs.
Operating income in our Acceptance segment increased $58 million, or 11%, in the third quarter of 2022 and $210 million, or 14%, in the first nine months of 2022 compared to 2021. Operating margin increased 20 basis points to 32.4% in the third quarter of 2022 and 20 basis points to 30.8% in the first nine months of 2022 compared to 2021.

Interest Expense, Net
Interest expense, net increased $18 million, or 10%, in the third quarter of 2022 and $11 million, or 2% in the first nine months of 2022 compared to 2021 primarily due to higher interest rates on outstanding borrowings.
Other (Expense) Income

The effective income tax rate for each of the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 includes discrete tax benefits from subsidiary restructurings and equity compensation related tax benefits. The effective income tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 also included $134 million of income tax expense attributed to the revaluation of certain net deferred tax liabilities, primarily related to intangible assets and investments in joint ventures recognized at fair value in connection with the acquisition of First Data, reflecting the effect of enacted corporate income tax rate changes in the United Kingdom (tax rate increase from 19% to 25% starting in 2023) and Argentina (tax rate increase from 25% to 35%).
Income (Loss) from Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates
Our share of net income (loss) from affiliates accounted for using the equity method is reported as income (loss) from investments in unconsolidated affiliates, and the related tax expense is reported within the income tax provision in the consolidated statements of income. Income (loss) from investments in unconsolidated affiliates, including acquired intangible asset amortization from valuations in purchase accounting, was ($12 million) and $22 million in the third quarter of 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $222 million and $80 million in the first nine months of 2022 and 2021, respectively.

investments in unconsolidated affiliates in the first nine months of 2021 included a $33 million pre-tax gain resulting from the sale of our remaining ownership interest in InvestCloud, as well as a $28 million pre-tax gain resulting from the dilution of our ownership interest in connection with the Tegra118 merger with a third party.
Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests
Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests and redeemable noncontrolling interests relates to the minority partners’ share of the net income in our consolidated subsidiaries. Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests, including acquired intangible asset amortization from valuations in purchase accounting, was $12 million and $18 million in the third quarter of 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $36 million and $47 million in the first nine months of 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Net income attributable to Fiserv, Inc. per share-diluted in the first nine months of 2021 included $134 million of certain discrete tax expenses discussed above, as well as higher acquisition and integration related expenses.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
General
Our primary liquidity needs in the ordinary course of business are to: (i) fund normal operating expenses; (ii) meet the interest and principal requirements of our outstanding indebtedness, including finance leases; and (iii) fund capital expenditures and operating lease payments. We believe these needs will be satisfied in both the short term and the long term using cash flow generated by our operations, along with our cash and cash equivalents of $893 million, proceeds from the issuance of U.S. dollar and Euro commercial paper, and available capacity under our revolving credit facility of $2.3 billion (net of $3.7 billion of capacity designated for outstanding borrowings under our commercial paper programs and letters of credit) at September 30, 2022.
The following table summarizes our operating cash flow and capital expenditure amounts for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively:

Operating cash flow$2,985 $2,691 $294 11 %
Capital expenditures, including capitalized software and other intangibles$1,148 $814 $334 41 %
Our net cash provided by operating activities, or operating cash flow, was $3.0 billion in the first nine months of 2022, an increase of 11% compared to $2.7 billion in the first nine months of 2021. This increase was primarily attributable to improved operating results, partially offset by higher working capital use compared to the prior period, including increased accounts receivable corresponding to revenue growth.
Our current policy is to use our operating cash flow primarily to fund capital expenditures, share repurchases, acquisitions and to repay debt rather than to pay dividends. Our capital expenditures were approximately 9% and 7% of our total revenue for the first nine months of 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Share Repurchases
We repurchased $1.8 billion and $1.6 billion (including the repurchase described below) of our common stock during the first nine months of 2022 and 2021, respectively. As of September 30, 2022, we had approximately 24.5 million shares remaining under our current repurchase authorization. Shares repurchased are generally held for issuance in connection with our equity plans.
In May 2021, New Omaha Holdings L.P. (“New Omaha”), a shareholder of ours, completed an underwritten secondary public offering of 23.0 million shares of our common stock (the “offering”). We repurchased from the underwriters 5.0 million shares of our common stock that were subject to the offering. The share repurchase totaled $588 million and was funded with cash on hand. The repurchased shares were cancelled and no longer outstanding following the completion of the share repurchase.
Acquisitions and Dispositions
Acquisitions
We acquired NexTable in September 2022, City POS in June 2022 and a remaining ownership interest in Finxact in April 2022, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $686 million, net of $27 million of acquired cash, and including earn-out provisions at an aggregate fair value of approximately $6 million. We funded these acquisitions by utilizing a combination of available cash and commercial paper notes.
We acquired BentoBox in November 2021, AIP in October 2021, SpendLabs in June 2021, Pineapple Payments in May 2021 and Radius8 in March 2021. Additionally, we acquired a remaining ownership interest in NetPay in November 2021 and a remaining ownership interest in Ondot in January 2021, in which we previously held noncontrolling equity interests. We acquired these businesses for an aggregate purchase price of $882 million, net of $43 million of acquired cash, and including earn-out provisions at an aggregate fair value of $34 million. We funded these acquisitions by utilizing a combination of available cash, commercial paper notes and existing availability under our revolving credit facility. The results of operations for these acquired businesses are included in our consolidated results from the respective dates of acquisition.
Dispositions
In September 2022, we sold our Korea operations for $50 million, consisting of $43 million in net cash and an equity interest in the buyer of $7 million. In March 2022, we mutually agreed to terminate a merchant alliance joint venture with a minority partner. Upon termination of the joint venture, we received proceeds of $175 million from the sale of certain merchant contracts. The net proceeds from these dispositions were primarily used to pay down indebtedness and repurchase shares of our common stock.
We previously maintained a noncontrolling interest in Tegra118, LLC (“Tegra118”) which was accounted for under the equity method. In February 2021, Tegra118 completed a merger with a third party, resulting in a dilution of our ownership interest in the combined new entity, Wealthtech Holdings, LLC, which was subsequently renamed as InvestCloud. In connection with the transaction, we made an additional capital contribution, funded under our revolving credit facility, of $200 million into the combined entity and, in June 2021, we sold our entire ownership interest in InvestCloud for $466 million. The net proceeds from the sale were primarily used to pay down outstanding borrowings on our term loan facility.

At September 30, 2022, our debt consisted primarily of $16.5 billion of fixed-rate senior notes and $3.7 billion of outstanding borrowings under our commercial paper programs. Interest on our U.S. dollar-denominated senior notes is paid semi-annually, while interest on our Euro and British Pound-denominated senior notes is paid annually. Interest on our revolving credit facility and commercial paper notes is generally paid weekly, or more frequently on occasion, and interest on our term loan is paid monthly. Outstanding borrowings under our 0.375% Euro-denominated senior notes due in July 2023 and U.S dollar and Euro commercial paper programs are classified in the consolidated balance sheet as long-term, as we have the intent to refinance these borrowings on a long-term basis through the continued issuance of new commercial paper notes upon maturity, and we also have the ability to refinance such borrowings under our revolving credit facility, as further discussed below.
In July 2022, we redeemed $700 million in aggregate principal amount of our outstanding 3.50% senior notes due in October 2022 at a redemption price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the notes being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest. We financed the redemption of these notes using proceeds from the issuance of U.S. dollar commercial paper. We also repaid $485 million, representing all amounts outstanding on our receivable securitized loan, in July 2022 using proceeds from the issuance of U.S. dollar commercial paper and terminated the underlying receivables financing agreement.
In June 2022, we entered into a new senior unsecured multicurrency revolving credit facility with substantially the same syndicate of banks that were lenders under our existing amended and restated revolving credit facility, which we voluntarily terminated and replaced. The new credit agreement matures in June 2027 and provides for a maximum aggregate principal amount of availability of $6.0 billion.

Table of Contents                                 
The indentures governing our senior notes contain covenants that, among other matters, limit (i) our ability to consolidate or merge with or into, or convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of our properties and assets to, another person, (ii) our and certain of our subsidiaries’ ability to create or assume liens, and (iii) our and certain of our subsidiaries’ ability to engage in sale and leaseback transactions. We may, at our option, redeem the senior notes, in whole or in part, at any time prior to the applicable maturity date.
The new revolving credit facility contains various restrictions and covenants that require us, among other things, to limit our consolidated indebtedness as of the end of each fiscal quarter to no more than 3.75 times our consolidated net income before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, non-cash charges and expenses and certain other adjustments (“EBITDA”) during the period of four fiscal quarters then ended, subject to certain exceptions.
The term loan facility contains various restrictions and covenants that require us to, among other things, (i) limit our consolidated indebtedness as of the end of each fiscal quarter to no more than 3.5 times our EBITDA during the period of four fiscal quarters then ended, subject to certain exceptions, and (ii) maintain EBITDA of at least 3.0 times our consolidated interest expense as of the end of each fiscal quarter for the period of four fiscal quarters then ended.
During the first nine months of 2022, we were in compliance with all financial debt covenants. Our ability to meet future debt covenant requirements will depend on our continued ability to generate earnings and cash flows. We expect to remain in compliance with all terms and conditions associated with our outstanding debt, including financial debt covenants.
Variable Rate Debt
Our variable rate debt consisted of the following at September 30, 2022:

Revolving credit facilityJune 20274.23%45 
Term loan facilityJuly 20244.31%200 
Total variable rate debt4.62%$4,162 
We maintain short-term lines of credit with foreign banks and alliance partners primarily to fund settlement activity. These arrangements are primarily associated with our international operations and are in various functional currencies, the most significant of which is the Argentine peso.
We maintain U.S. dollar and Euro unsecured commercial paper programs with various maturities generally ranging from one day to four months. Outstanding borrowings under our commercial paper programs bear interest based on the prevailing rates at the time of issuance. In August 2022, we increased our U.S. commercial paper program borrowing capacity to $6.0 billion to align with the maximum amount of availability under our revolving credit facility.
As discussed above, we maintain a revolving credit facility with aggregate commitments available for $6.0 billion of total capacity. Borrowings under the credit facility bear interest at a variable rate based on a Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) or a base rate in the case of U.S. dollar borrowings, in each case plus a specified margin based on our long-term debt rating in effect from time to time. We are required to pay a facility fee based on the aggregate commitments in effect under the credit agreement from time to time.
We maintain a term loan credit agreement with a syndicate of financial institutions. Outstanding borrowings under the term loan bear interest at a variable rate based on one-month LIBOR or a base rate, in each case plus a specified margin based on our long-term debt rating in effect from time to time.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Investments, exclusive of settlement assets, with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to cash are considered to be cash equivalents as reflected within our consolidated balance sheets. At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we held $893 million and $835 million in cash and cash equivalents, respectively.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Market risk refers to the risk that a change in the level of one or more market prices, interest rates, currency exchange rates, indices, correlations or other market factors, such as liquidity, will result in losses for a certain financial instrument or group of financial instruments. Our senior management actively monitors certain market risks to which we are exposed, primarily from fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. In order to limit our exposure to these risks, we may enter into derivative instruments with creditworthy institutions to hedge against changing interest rates and foreign currency rate fluctuations. We currently utilize forward exchange contracts, fixed-to-fixed cross-currency rate swap contracts and other non-derivative hedging instruments to manage risk.
Additional information about market risks to which we are exposed, including discussion of risks and potential risks of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, is included within Item 7A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. There were no significant changes to our quantitative and qualitative analyses about market risk during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2022.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There was no change in internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended September 30, 2022 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
In the normal course of business, we or our subsidiaries are named as defendants in lawsuits in which claims are asserted against us. In the opinion of management, the liabilities, if any, which may ultimately result from such lawsuits are not expected to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial statements.
