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

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

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

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


	June 30, 2022		December 31, 2021

Cash and cash equivalents	$	163,204	$	158,205
Restricted cash included in "Prepaid and other current assets"		12,013		22,477
Total	$	175,217	$	180,682

Concentration of Credit Risk

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

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805), “Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers”, which now requires the acquirer to account for revenue contracts in accordance with Topic 606 as if it had acquired the contract, versus recording these assets and liabilities at fair value on acquisition date. The ASU is effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2022, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted the new guidance during the fourth quarter of 2021 which required application to all acquisitions completed during the adoption year. See further discussion in Note 2.

Other Accounting Pronouncements

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

(2)ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES

Certain Assets of Faneuil

On April 1, 2022, the Company completed an asset acquisition through its subsidiary TTEC Government Solutions LLC, of certain public sector citizen experience contracts in the transportation infrastructure and healthcare exchange industries from Faneuil, Inc., a subsidiary of ALJ Regional Holdings, Inc. (“the Faneuil Transaction”). The business is operated as part of the TTEC Engage segment and was fully consolidated into the financial statements of TTEC. The Faneuil Transaction was recorded as a business combination under ASC 805, Business Combinations, with identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed recorded at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date.

Total cash paid at acquisition was $142.3 million. In addition, Faneuil granted to TTEC Government Solutions LLC a three-year call right and right of first offer to purchase certain other assets of Faneuil in its utilities and commercial healthcare verticals as well as certain proprietary technology. The Faneuil Transaction includes two contingent payments anticipated to be paid in early 2024 which are based on the revenue and EBITDA performance of one contract and one potential contract.

The fair value of the two contingent payments has been estimated using a Monte Carlo model. The model was based on current expected EBITDA performance for the two specific client programs, a discount rate of 7.6% related to revenue and a discount rate of 19.3% related to EBITDA, a volatility rate of 20%, and an adjusted risk-free rate of 1.7%. The potential payments range from a minimum of zero to an unlimited maximum. Based on the model, a combined $8.8 million expected future payment was calculated and recorded as of the acquisition date, which is included in Other long-term liabilities in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The Faneuil Transaction included a call option providing the right but not the obligation to purchase additional assets in the utilities and commercial healthcare verticals based on trailing twelve-month revenue plus an additional earn-out payment based on newly added contracts. A second call option provided the right to purchase a software intangible asset and related support functions based on trailing twelve-month revenue. These call options were valued based on information including the call right and the exclusivity period and a $0.3 million asset was recorded as of the acquisition date which is included in Other long-term assets in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The Faneuil Transaction included an indemnity escrow which was disbursed as a holdback payment on the acquisition date. The indemnity payments relate to real estate and technology funds that will be spent post-close related to various IT upgrades and real estate expenses, and indemnity related to potential future employee wage increases. The indemnity payments were valued based on a weighted average of several current scenarios and a receivable of $10.4 million was recorded as of the acquisition date which is included in Other current assets in the accompanying Balance Sheets.

A multi-period excess earnings method under the income approach was used to estimate the fair value of the customer relationships intangible asset. The significant assumptions utilized in calculating the fair value of the customer relationships intangible asset were the customer attrition rate, revenue growth rates, forecasted EBITDA, contributory asset charge, and the discount rate.

The following summarizes the estimated fair values of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date (in thousands):


	Preliminary
	Estimate of
	Acquisition Date
	Fair Value
Cash	$	—
Accounts receivable, net		704
Prepaid and other assets		8,473
Net fixed assets		5,993
Right of use lease assets		16,526
Other assets		2,572
Customer relationships		61,150
Goodwill		76,311
	$	171,729

Accrued employee compensation	$	202
Accrued expenses		2,675
Right of use lease liability - current		3,129
Right of use lease liability - non-current		13,601
Deferred income		811
Other liabilities		8,891
	$	29,309

Total purchase price	$	142,420

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

The Faneuil customer relationships have been estimated based on the initial valuation and will be amortized over an estimated useful life of 10 years. The goodwill recognized from the Faneuil acquisition is estimated to be attributable, but not limited to, the acquired workforce and expected synergies with the TTEC Engage segment. The tax basis of the acquired intangibles and goodwill will be materially deductible for income tax purposes. The acquired goodwill and intangibles and operating results of Faneuil are reported within the TTEC Engage segment from the date of acquisition.

Avtex

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

Total cash paid at acquisition was $499.946 million ($490.0 million base purchase price plus cash, less debt and working capital estimate). The Avtex transaction is subject to customary representations and warranties, holdbacks, and a net working capital adjustment. The Company used cash from operations and drew down on its Credit Facility to fund the acquisition. The Company finalized the net working capital adjustment for $0.1 million during the third quarter of 2021 which was paid by Avtex to the Company in the third quarter of 2021.

During the fourth quarter of 2021, TTEC implemented ASU 2021-08 which required an accounting modification to the deferred revenue balance as of the acquisition date (see discussion above in Note 1). The deferred revenue balance was evaluated as if TTEC had been the company securing the initial contract and accounted for these contracts in accordance with ASC 606. Based on this re-assessment, the $4.9 million reduction initially recorded to deferred revenue in connection with the purchase price accounting was eliminated and an offsetting increase to Goodwill was recorded as of the acquisition date. In connection with this modification, revenue of $3.4 million was recorded in the fourth quarter of 2021 related to deferred revenue from the second and third quarters of 2021.

	$	87,796

Total purchase price	$	499,946

In the first quarter of 2022, the Company finalized the valuation of Avtex for the acquisition date assets acquired and liabilities assumed and determined that no material adjustments to any of the balances were required.

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

Financial Impact of Acquired Businesses

The acquired businesses purchased in 2021 and 2022 noted above contributed revenues of $90.6 million and net income of $21.1 million, to the Company for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and revenues of $143.9 million and net income $38.9 million, to the Company for the six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively.

The unaudited proforma financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 combines the consolidated results of the Company, Avtex and Faneuil assuming the acquisition had been completed on January 1, 2021. The reported revenue and net income of $604.3 million and $25.2 million would have been $604.3 million and $25.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, on an unaudited proforma basis. The reported revenue and net income of $1,193.0 million and $58.6 million would have been $1,235.0 million and $63.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, on an unaudited proforma basis.

The Company did not have any material, nonrecurring proforma adjustments directly attributable to the business combinations included in the reported proforma revenue earnings. These proforma amounts have been calculated after applying the Company’s accounting policies and adjusting the respective acquired businesses’ results to reflect the additional depreciation and amortization that would have been charged assuming the fair value adjustments to property, plant and equipment, and intangible assets had been applied from the date indicated, with the consequential tax effects.

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

(4)SIGNIFICANT CLIENTS AND OTHER CONCENTRATIONS

The Company had one client that contributed in excess of 10% of total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2022; this client operates in the automotive industry and is included in the TTEC Engage segment. This client contributed 10.5% and 9.0% of total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company had one client that contributed in excess of 10% of total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2021; this client operates in the financial services sector. This client contributed 7.4% and 14.2% of total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company does have clients with aggregate revenue exceeding $100 million annually and the loss of one or more of these clients could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, operating results, or financial condition. To mitigate this risk, the Company has multiple contracts with these larger clients, where each individual contract is for an amount below the $100 million aggregate.

To limit the Company’s credit risk with its clients, management performs periodic credit evaluations, maintains allowances for credit losses and may require pre-payment for services from certain clients. Based on currently available information, management does not believe significant credit risk existed as of June 30, 2022.

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

Accounts Receivable Sales Agreement

The Company is party to an Uncommitted Receivables Purchase Agreement (“Agreement”) with Bank of the West (“Bank”), whereby from time-to-time the Company may elect to sell, on a revolving basis, U.S. accounts receivables of certain clients at a discount to the Bank for cash on a limited recourse basis. The maximum amount of receivables that the Company may sell to the Bank at any given time shall not exceed $100 million. The sales of accounts receivable in accordance with the Agreement are reflected as a reduction of Accounts Receivable, net on the Consolidated Balance sheets. The Company has retained no interest in the sold receivables but retains all collection responsibilities on behalf of the Bank. The discount on the accounts receivable sold will be recorded within Other expense, net in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss). The cash proceeds from this Agreement are included in the change in accounts receivable within the operating activities section of the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flow.

As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had factored $95.1 million and $97.7 million, respectively, of accounts receivable; under the Agreement discounts on these receivables were not material during the quarter. As of June 30, 2022, the Company had collected $11.8 million of cash from customers which had not been remitted to the Bank. The unremitted cash is restricted cash and is included within Prepaid and other current assets with the corresponding liability included in Accrued expenses on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Company has not recorded any servicing assets or liabilities as of June 30, 2022 as the fair value of the servicing arrangement as well as the fees earned were not material to the financial statements.

(5)GOODWILL

Goodwill consisted of the following (in thousands):

Total	$	739,481	$	76,311	$	—	$	(4,863)	$	810,929

The Company performs a goodwill impairment assessment on at least an annual basis. The Company conducts its annual goodwill impairment assessment during the fourth quarter, or more frequently, if indicators of impairment exist. During the quarter ended June 30, 2022, the Company assessed whether any such indicators of impairment existed and concluded there were none.

(6)DERIVATIVES

Cash Flow Hedges

The Company enters into foreign exchange related derivatives. Foreign exchange derivatives entered into consist of forward and option contracts to reduce the Company’s exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations that are associated with forecasted revenue earned in foreign locations. Upon proper qualification, these contracts are designated as cash flow hedges. It is the Company’s policy to only enter into derivative contracts with investment grade counterparty financial institutions, and correspondingly, the fair value of derivative assets considers, among other factors, the creditworthiness of these counterparties. Conversely, the fair value of derivative liabilities reflects the Company’s creditworthiness. As of June 30, 2022, the Company has not experienced, nor does it anticipate, any issues related to derivative counterparty defaults. The following table summarizes the aggregate unrealized net gain or loss in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 (in thousands and net of tax):

(7)FAIR VALUE

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

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

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

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

The following presents information as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 for the Company’s assets and liabilities required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis, as well as the fair value hierarchy used to determine their fair value.

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

Investments – The Company measures investments, including cost and equity method investments, at fair value on a nonrecurring basis when they are deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired. The fair values of these investments are determined based on valuation techniques using the best information available, and may include market observable inputs, and discounted cash flow projections. An impairment charge is recorded when the cost of the investment exceeds its fair value and this condition is determined to be other-than-temporary. As of March 31, 2018, the investment in CaféX Communication, Inc., which consisted of the Company’s total $15.6 million investment, was fully impaired to zero.

Debt - The Company’s debt consists primarily of the Company’s Credit Facility, which permits floating-rate borrowings based upon the current Prime Rate or LIBOR plus a credit spread as determined by the Company’s leverage ratio calculation (as defined in the Credit Agreement). As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had $930.0 million and $791.0 million, respectively, of borrowings outstanding under the Credit Facility. During the second quarter of 2022 outstanding borrowings accrued interest at an average rate of 2.0% per annum, excluding unused commitment fees. The amounts recorded in the accompanying Balance Sheets approximate fair value due to the variable nature of the debt based on Level 2 inputs.

Derivatives - Net derivative assets (liabilities) are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The portfolio is valued using models based on market observable inputs, including both forward and spot foreign exchange rates, interest rates, implied volatility, and counterparty credit risk, including the ability of each party to execute its obligations under the contract. As of June 30, 2022, credit risk did not materially change the fair value of the Company’s derivative contracts.

The following is a summary of the Company’s fair value measurements for its net derivative assets (liabilities) as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 (in thousands):

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

Contingent Consideration - The Company recorded contingent consideration payable related to the acquisitions of the U.S. and U.K. assets of VoiceFoundry (“VFUS”) and the remaining VoiceFoundry business (“VF ASEAN”) that closed during 2020, and Faneuil that closed in 2022. The contingent payable for VF US was calculated using a Monte Carlo simulation including a discount rate of 23.1%. The contingent payable for VF ASEAN was calculated using a Monte Carlo simulation including a discount rate of 18.4%. The contingent payables for Faneuil were calculated using a Monte Carlo simulation including a discount rate of 19.3%. The measurements were based on significant inputs not observable in the market. The Company records interest expense each period using the effective interest method until the future value of these contingent payments reaches the expected total future value.

During the fourth quarter of 2020, the first quarter of 2021, the second quarter of 2021 and the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company recorded fair value adjustments to the contingent consideration associated with the VF US and VF ASEAN acquisitions based on increased actual results and estimates of EBITDA for 2021 which caused the payables to increase. Accordingly, a combined $4.3 million increase, $0.9 million increase, $0.2 million increase and a $0.1 million increase to the payables were recorded as of December 31, 2020, March 31, 2021, June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2021, respectively, and were included in Other income (expense), net in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss). The future contingent consideration for the VF US and VF ASEAN acquisitions were finalized at $9.6 million and were paid during March 2022.

Contingent receivables – The Company recorded a contingent receivable related to the acquisition of Faneuil that closed in 2022. The contingent receivable was valued based on a weighted average of several current scenarios and a receivable of $10.4 million was recorded as of the acquisition date.

A rollforward of the activity in the Company’s fair value of the contingent consideration receivable and payable is as follows (in thousands):

(8)IMPAIRMENT OF ASSETS

During each of the periods presented, the Company evaluated the recoverability of its leasehold improvement assets at certain customer engagement centers as well as all internally developed software projects. An asset is considered to be impaired when the anticipated undiscounted future cash flows of its asset group are estimated to be less than the asset group’s carrying value. The amount of impairment recognized is the difference between the carrying value of the asset group and its fair value. To determine fair value, the Company used Level 3 inputs in its discounted cash flows analysis. Assumptions included the amount and timing of estimated future cash flows and assumed discount rates. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recognized impairment losses, net related to leasehold improvements assets, right of use lease assets, internally developed software and certain computer equipment of $9.2 million and $10.4 million, respectively, across the TTEC Digital and TTEC Engage segments.

(9)INCOME TAXES

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

As of June 30, 2022, the Company had $21.4 million of net deferred tax assets (after a $28.1 million valuation allowance) and a net deferred tax asset of $16.7 million (after deferred tax liabilities of $4.7 million) related to the United States and international tax jurisdictions whose recoverability is dependent upon future profitability.

The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 was 20.2% and 18.7%, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 was 17.8% and 20.3%, respectively.

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

When there is a change in judgment concerning the recovery of deferred tax assets in future periods, a valuation allowance is recorded into earnings during the quarter in which the change in judgment occurred. In the first, third and fourth quarters of 2021, changes to the valuation allowance were recorded in the amount of $2.4 million, $6.4 million and $5.1 million, respectively, for assets that did not meet the “more-likely-than-not” standard. In the first quarter of 2022, $1.3 million, and in the second quarter of 2022, $0.6 million was released from the valuation allowance for assets that are expected to be recognized in the future.

The Company has been granted “Tax Holidays” as an incentive to attract foreign investment by the government of the Philippines. Generally, a Tax Holiday is an agreement between the Company and a foreign government under which the Company receives certain tax benefits in that country, such as exemption from taxation on profits derived from export-related activities. In the Philippines, the Company has been granted multiple agreements with an initial period of tax at 0% for four years, which will be fully expired in 2022 and additional periods at a reduced tax rate, expiring at various times beginning in 2030. The aggregate benefit to income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 was approximately $0.0 million and $2.6 million, respectively, which had an impact on diluted net income per share of $0.00 and $0.05, respectively. The aggregate effect on income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, was approximately $1.0 million and $3.7 million benefit, respectively, which had an impact on diluted net income per share of $0.02 and $0.08, respectively.

(10)COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Credit Facility

On November 23, 2021, the Company entered into a Sixth Amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (“the Credit Agreement”) originally dated June 3, 2013, (collectively, the “Credit Facility”) to convert the $300 million term loan included in the total Credit Facility commitments, that was previously agreed on March 25, 2021 as part of the Fifth Amendment to the Credit Agreement, into a $1.5 billion senior secured revolving Credit Facility with a syndicate of lenders led by Wells Fargo, National Association, as agent, swingline and fronting lender. The Credit Facility matures on November 23, 2026. We primarily use our Credit Facility to fund working capital, general operations, dividends, acquisitions and other strategic activities.

On March 25, 2021, the Company entered into a Fifth Amendment to its Credit Agreement and Credit Facility to increase the total commitments by $300 million to $1.2 billion by exercising the accordion feature that was included in the senior secured revolving credit facility. The $300 million increase was in the form of a term loan, could be prepaid anytime and would become due February 14, 2024, contemporaneously with the expiration of the revolving line of credit.

The maximum commitment under the Credit Facility is $1.5 billion in the aggregate, if certain conditions are satisfied. The Credit Facility commitment fees are payable to the lenders in an amount equal to the unused portion of the Credit Facility multiplied by a rate per annum as determined by reference to the Company’s net leverage ratio. The Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative, negative, and financial covenants. The Credit Agreement permits accounts receivable factoring up to the greater of $100 million or 25 percent of the average book value of all accounts receivable over the most recent twelve-month period. The Credit Agreement also permits the utilization of up to $100 million of limits within the Credit Facility for letters of credit to be used in the business.

Base rate loans bear interest at a rate equal to the greatest of (i) Wells Fargo’s prime rate, (ii) one half of 1% in excess of the federal funds effective rate, and (iii) 1.25% in excess of the one month LIBOR; plus in each case a margin of 0% to 0.75% based on the Company’s net leverage ratio. Eurodollar loans bear interest at LIBOR plus a margin of 1.0% to 1.75% based on the Company’s net leverage ratio. Alternate currency loans bear interest at rates applicable to their respective currencies.

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

The Company primarily utilizes its Credit Facility to fund working capital, general operations, dividends and other strategic activities, such as the acquisitions described in Note 2. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had borrowings of $930.0 million and $791.0 million, respectively, under its Credit Facility, and its average daily utilization was $966.3 million and $662.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. During early April 2021, the Company increased borrowings by approximately $500 million in connection with the acquisition of Avtex (see Note 2). Based on the current level of availability based on the covenant calculations, the Company’s remaining borrowing capacity was approximately $425 million as of June 30, 2022. As of June 30, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all covenants and conditions under its Credit Agreement.

Letters of Credit

As of June 30, 2022, outstanding letters of credit under the Credit Facility totaled $12.6 million and primarily guaranteed workers’ compensation and other insurance related obligations. As of June 30, 2022, letters of credit and contract performance guarantees issued outside of the Credit Agreement totaled $0.3 million.

Guarantees

Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement is guaranteed by certain of the Company’s present and future domestic subsidiaries.

Legal Proceedings

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

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

(11)DEFERRED REVENUE AND REMAINING PERFORMANCE OBLIGATIONS

Revenue recognized for the six months ended June 30, 2022 from amounts included in deferred revenue as of December 31, 2021 was $134.8 million. Revenue recognized for the six months ended June 30, 2021 from amounts included in deferred revenue as of December 31, 2020 was $67.4 million.

Remaining performance obligations (RPO) represent the amount of contracted future revenue that has not yet been recognized, including both deferred revenue and non-cancelable contracted amounts that will be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods. The Company’s RPO excludes performance obligations from on-demand arrangements as there are no minimum purchase commitments associated with these arrangements, and certain time and materials contracts that are billed in arrears.

As of June 30, 2022, the Company’s RPO was $288.2 million, which will be delivered and recognized within the next three years. However, the amount and timing of revenue recognition are generally driven by customer consumption, which can extend beyond the original contract term in cases where customers are permitted to roll over unused capacity to future periods, generally upon the purchase of additional capacity at renewal.

Restricted Stock Unit Grants

During the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company granted 155,897 and 11,656 RSUs, respectively, to new and existing employees, which vest over four to five years. The Company recognized compensation expense related to RSUs of $3.8 million and $7.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. The Company recognized compensation expense related to RSUs of $2.6 million and $5.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. As of June 30, 2022, there was approximately $56.2 million of total unrecognized compensation cost (including the impact of expected forfeitures) related to RSUs granted under the Company’s equity plans.

Performance Based Restricted Stock Unit Grants

During 2019, the Company awarded performance restricted stock units (“PRSUs”) that were subject to service and performance vesting conditions. If defined minimum targets were met, the annual value of the PRSUs issued would be between $0.4 million and $1.4 million and vest immediately. If the defined minimum targets were not met, then no shares would be issued. The award amounts were based on the Company’s annual adjusted operating income for the fiscal years 2019, 2020 and 2021. Each fiscal year’s adjusted operating income determined the award amount. The Company recognized compensation expense related to the 2019 PRSUs of $0.3 million and $0.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively.

If defined minimum targets are met, the annual value of the PRSUs issued will be between $0.2 million and $2.0 million and vest immediately. If the defined minimum targets are not met, then no shares will be issued. The number of shares awarded are based on the Company’s annual revenue and adjusted operating income for the fiscal years 2021 and 2022. Each fiscal year’s revenue and adjusted operating income will determine the award amount. The Company recognized compensation expense related to the 2020 PRSUs of $0.4 million and $0.5 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. The Company recognized compensation expense related to the 2020 PRSUs of $0.5 million and $1.0 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021.

During 2021, the Company awarded PRSUs that are subject to service and performance vesting conditions. If defined minimum targets are met, the annual value of the PRSUs issued will be between $1.2 million and $4.9 million and vest immediately in 2024. If the defined minimum targets are not met, then no shares will be issued. The number of shares that will be awarded will be based on the Company’s annual revenue and adjusted operating income for the fiscal year 2023. Expense for these awards will begin at the start of the requisite service period, beginning January 1, 2023.

During 2022, the Company made awards of two different PRSU programs that are subject to service and performance vesting conditions: ordinary course annual PRSUs and one-time stretch financial goals PRSUs. For the ordinary course annual PRSUs, if defined minimum targets are met, the annual value of the PRSUs issued will be between $0.9 million and $3.5 million and vest immediately in March 2025. If the defined minimum targets are not met, then no shares will be issued. The number of shares that will be awarded will be based on the Company’s annual revenue and adjusted EBITDA for the fiscal year 2024. For the one-time stretch financial goals PRSUs, if defined minimum targets at TTEC Engage and TTEC Digital business segments’ levels are met, the number of shares of PRSUs issued will be between 0.0 million shares and 0.5 million shares and will vest immediately in March 2026. If the defined minimum targets are not met, then no shares will be issued. The number of shares to be awarded will be based on the TTEC Engage and TTEC Digital business segments’ annual revenue and adjusted EBITDA for the fiscal year 2025.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Executive Summary

TTEC Holdings, Inc. (“TTEC”, “the Company”, “we”, “our” or “us”; pronounced “T-TEC”) is a leading global customer experience as a service (“CXaaS”) partner for many of the world’s most iconic and disruptive brands. TTEC designs, builds, orchestrates, and delivers seamless digitally enabled customer experiences that are designed to increase brand value, customer loyalty, revenue, and profitability through personalized, outcome-based interactions. We help clients improve their customer satisfaction while lowering their total cost to serve by combining innovative digital solutions with service capabilities that deliver a frictionless customer experience (“CX”) across different channels and phases of the customer lifecycle.

The Company operates and reports its financial results of operation through two business segments: TTEC Digital and TTEC Engage.

●

During 2022, the TTEC global operating platform delivered onshore, nearshore, and offshore services in 20 countries on six continents -- the United States, Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Bulgaria, Canada, Costa Rica, Germany, Greece, India, Ireland, Mexico, the Netherlands, New Zealand, the Philippines, Poland, Singapore, South Africa, Thailand, and the United Kingdom with the help of 59,600 consultants, technologists, and CX professionals.

Our revenue for second quarter 2022 was $604.3 million, approximately $116.6 million, or 19% which came from our TTEC Digital segment and $487.7 million, or 81%, which came from our TTEC Engage segment.

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

Table of Contents

We also invest to broaden our product and service capabilities, increase our global client base and industry expertise, tailor our geographic footprint to the needs of our clients, and further scale our end-to-end integrated solutions platform. To this end we have been highly acquisitive in the last several years, including in April 2022 the acquisition of certain citizen experience assets of Faneuil, Inc. that include healthcare exchange and transportation services contracts, which will expand our capabilities in the growing public sector market by building and operating technology-enabled citizen engagement solutions. We also completed an acquisition early in the second quarter of 2021 of a provider of Genesys and Microsoft cloud contact center services, which followed an acquisition in the second half of 2020 of a preferred Amazon Connect cloud contact center service provider.

We have extensive expertise in the healthcare, automotive, national/federal and state and local government, financial services, communications, technology, travel, logistics, media and entertainment, e-tail/retail, and transportation industries. We serve more than 760 diverse clients globally, including many of the world’s iconic brands, Fortune 1000 companies, government agencies, and disruptive growth companies.

Cybersecurity Incident

In September 2021, TTEC experienced a ransomware incident that temporarily disrupted the Engage business segment’s client support environment. Certain TTEC systems and data became encrypted and certain TTEC data was exfiltrated or destroyed. TTEC Digital business segment’s information systems and client environment were not involved in the attack. TTEC activated its incident response and business continuity protocols, notified law enforcement, took appropriate measures to restore its systems and was able to restore operations for many impacted clients within hours of the start of the incident, with all client-facing systems returning to operations within five days of the incident.

We exercised reasonable efforts to identify data that may have been exfiltrated. We continue to monitor the situation, and we are not currently aware of evidence that exfiltrated data was publicly released. As of the date of this report, data involved in the incident has been analyzed for impact and notice obligations, and we provided appropriate regulatory and individual notices about the incident and its potential impacts.

With support from outside forensic experts, TTEC completed its investigation of root causes and impacts of the cybersecurity incident and is working to harden the security of its information technology environment and is taking measures to move to a ‘zero trust’ environment to protect its systems and its data.

The Company performed appropriate procedures to validate the accuracy and completeness of information involved in its financial reporting, and we have no indication that the accuracy and completeness of any financial information was impacted as a result of the incident.

The temporary operational disruptions that occurred due to this incident did not have a long-term impact on our results of operations. We made additional investments in the hardening of our cybersecurity environment and the operational governance of our information technology systems during the fourth quarter of 2021 and expect to make further investments in 2022. We anticipate the likely investment to be at least $6 million in 2022 and beyond. The incident and any failure or perceived failure by us to comply with applicable privacy laws in connection with this incident could result in government enforcement actions, regulatory investigations, fines, penalties, and private legal actions, which could impact our results of operations and expenses associated with the incident. In the first half of 2022, we have been served with certain lawsuits alleging data privacy failures, which are typical when cybersecurity incidents result in data exfiltration. Other actual and potential consequences of the incident may include negative publicity, loss of client trust, reputational damage, litigation, contractual claims, financial judgement or settlements in excess of insurance, and disputes with insurance carriers concerning coverage. See, Part I, Item 1A Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

COVID-19 Pandemic

Through the period ended June 30, 2022 the COVID-19 pandemic has not had a material adverse impact on our operational or financial results. As of June 30, 2022 only some of our COVID-19 specific surge work has transitioned to more traditional business activities for the same clients, and our clients continue to reposition their work in post-pandemic environment, leveraging new ways of working, and evolving the use of technology. These changes bring more opportunities to the Company, while at the same time temporarily or permanently diverting certain business volumes. Based on currently available information, we cannot accurately predict the post-pandemic changes to our clients’ businesses and their effect on the magnitude and timing of our clients’ buying decisions. Further, while to date we have been successful in managing service delivery from a highly disbursed employee population working remotely, certain seasonal weather cycles and their potential impacts on power grid, and internet availability for our employees working from home may impact our delivery capability with little notice, thus potentially impacting our results of operations in the future.

Our Integrated Service Offerings and Business Segments

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

●

Professional Services: Our management consulting practices deliver customer experience strategy, analytics, process optimization, and learning and performance services.

Financial Highlights

In the second quarter of 2022, our revenue increased $49.5 million, or 8.9%, to $604.3 million over the same period in 2021 including a decrease of $10.5 million, or 1.9%, due to foreign currency fluctuations. The increase in revenue was comprised of an $8.6 million, or 8.0%, increase for TTEC Digital and an increase of $40.9 million, or 9.1%, for TTEC Engage.

Our second quarter 2022 income from operations decreased $29.9 million, or 45.5%, to $35.9 million or 5.9% of revenue, compared to $65.8 million or 11.9% of revenue in the second quarter of 2021. The decrease in operating income is comprised of a number of factors across the segments. The TTEC Digital operating income increased 13.7% due to growth in the cloud revenue platform partially offset by a continued investment in sales and marketing, product engineering, and geographic expansion. The TTEC Engage operating income decreased 55.6% over the same period last year primarily related to the ramp of several new programs, change in revenue mix away from COVID-surge programs, increased sales and marketing expenses, increased amortization of acquisition related intangible assets, and impairments of internally developed software and real estate leases, offset by the acquisition of Faneuil.

Income from operations in the second quarter of 2022 and 2021 included $11.8 million and $2.4 million of restructuring charges and asset impairments, respectively.

Our offshore customer engagement centers spanning six countries serve clients based in the U.S. and in other countries with 21,600 workstations, representing 59% of our global delivery capability. Revenue for our TTEC Engage segment provided from these offshore locations represented 26% of our revenue for the second quarter of 2022, as compared to 30% of our revenue for the corresponding period in 2021.

Our seat utilization is defined as the total number of utilized workstations compared to the total number of available production workstations. As of June 30, 2022, the total production workstations for our TTEC Engage segment was 36,800 and the overall capacity utilization in our centers was 69% versus 62% in the prior year period. This significant improvement was driven by the Company’s site optimization strategy as more and more clients are adopting the @Home operational platform on a permanent basis.

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

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

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of our Financial Condition and Results of Operations is based upon our Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses as well as the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We regularly review our estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions, which are based upon historical experience and on various other factors believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Reported amounts and disclosures may have been different had management used different estimates and assumptions or if different conditions had occurred in the periods presented. For further information, please refer to the discussion of all critical accounting policies in Note 1 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Operating Margin		9.3	%		8.9	%

The increase in revenue for the TTEC Digital segment was driven by increases in the cloud platform and the systems integration practice.

The operating income decreased primarily due to the change in revenue mix away from COVID-surge programs, ramp costs for the new programs replacing COVID related work, incremental growth-oriented investments, integration-related costs associated with the Faneuil acquisition, increased amortization of acquisition related intangible assets, and $11.7 million of restructuring and impairment charges related to several real estate leases and internally developed software that will not be used in the future. As a result, operating income as a percentage of revenue decreased to 5.1% in the second quarter of 2022 as compared to 12.6% in the prior period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal sources of liquidity are our cash generated from operations, our cash and cash equivalents, and borrowings under our Credit Facility. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we generated positive operating cash flows of $91.3 million. We believe that our cash generated from operations, existing cash and cash equivalents, and available credit will be sufficient to meet expected operating and capital expenditure requirements for the next 12 months, however, if our access to capital is restricted or our borrowing costs increase, our operations and financial condition could be adversely impacted.

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

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

Table of Contents

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

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

The following discussion highlights our cash flow activities during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

We consider all liquid investments purchased within 90 days of their original maturity to be cash equivalents. Our cash and cash equivalents totaled $163.2 million and $158.2 million as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. We diversify the holdings of such cash and cash equivalents considering the financial condition and stability of the counterparty institutions.

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

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, net cash flows provided by operating activities was $91.3 million and $132.8 million, respectively. The decrease is primarily due to a $27.0 million decrease in net cash income from operations and a $14.6 million reduction in net working capital.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, net cash flows used in investing activities was $178.1 million and $505.3 million, respectively. The decrease was due to a decrease related to acquisitions of $339.3 million offset by a $12.2 million increase in capital expenditures.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, net cash flows provided by financing activities was $93.7 million and $400.5 million, respectively. The change in net cash flows from 2021 to 2022 was primarily due to a $310.0 million net change in the line of credit and a $3.4 million increase in dividends to shareholders, offset by a $3.6 million increase in tax payments related to restricted stock units.

Free Cash Flow

Free cash flow (see “Presentation of Non-GAAP Measurements” below for the definition of free cash flow) decreased for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021 primarily due to a decrease in net cash from operations, a decrease in working capital and higher capital expenditures. Free cash flow was $55.5 million and $109.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Presentation of Non-GAAP Measurements

Free Cash Flow

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

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


	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2022		2021		2022		2021
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	77,585	$	63,052	$	91,271	$	132,839

Obligations and Future Capital Requirements

There were no material changes to the Company’s contractual obligations and future capital requirements outside the normal course of business from the date of our 2021 Form 10-K filing on March 3, 2022 through the filing of this report.

Future Capital Requirements

We expect total capital expenditures in 2022 to be between 3.0% and 3.2% of revenue. Approximately 65% of these expected capital expenditures are to support growth in our business and 35% relate to the maintenance for existing assets. The anticipated level of 2022 capital expenditures is primarily driven by new client contracts and the corresponding requirements for additional customer engagement center capacity as well as enhancements to our technological infrastructure.

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

Client Concentration

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, one of our clients represented more than 10% of our total revenue. Our five largest clients, collectively, accounted for 34.7% and 36.4% of our consolidated revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively and 35.8% and 39.0% of our consolidated revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. We have had long-term relationships with our top five TTEC Engage clients, ranging from 16 to 22 years, with all of these clients having completed multiple contract renewals with us. The relative contribution of any single client to consolidated earnings is not always proportional to the relative revenue contribution on a consolidated basis and varies greatly based upon specific contract terms. In addition, clients may adjust business volumes served by us based on their business requirements. We believe the risk of this concentration is mitigated, in part, by the long-term contracts we have with our largest clients. Although certain client contracts may be terminated for convenience by either party, we believe this risk is mitigated, in part, by the service level disruptions and transition/migration costs that would arise for our clients if they terminated our contract for convenience.

Some contracts with our five largest clients expire between 2022 and 2023, but most of our largest clients have multiple contracts with us with different expiration dates for different lines of work. We have historically renewed most of our contracts with our largest clients, but there can be no assurance that future contracts will be renewed or, if renewed, will be on terms as favorable as the existing contracts.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

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

Interest Rate Risk

We have previously entered into interest rate derivative instruments to reduce our exposure to interest rate fluctuations associated with our variable rate debt. The interest rate on our Credit Agreement is variable based upon the Prime Rate and LIBOR and, therefore, is affected by changes in market interest rates. As of June 30, 2022, we had $930.0 million of outstanding borrowings under the Credit Agreement. Based upon average outstanding borrowings during the three months ended June 30, 2022, interest accrued at a rate of approximately 2.0% per annum, respectively. If the Prime Rate or LIBOR increased by 100 basis points, there would be an annualized $1.0 million of additional interest expense per $100.0 million of outstanding borrowing under the Credit Agreement.

Foreign Currency Risk

Our subsidiaries in the Philippines, Mexico, India, Bulgaria and Poland use the local currency as their functional currency for paying labor and other operating costs. Conversely, revenue for these foreign subsidiaries is derived principally from client contracts that are invoiced and collected in U.S. dollars or other foreign currencies. As a result, we may experience foreign currency gains or losses, which may positively or negatively affect our results of operations attributed to these subsidiaries. For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, revenue associated with this foreign exchange risk was 18% and 17% of our consolidated revenue, respectively.

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

Cash Flow Hedging Program

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

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

Our cash flow hedging instruments as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 are summarized as follows (in thousands). All hedging instruments are forward contracts, except as noted.

The fair value of our cash flow hedges as of June 30, 2022 was assets/(liabilities) (in thousands):


			Maturing in the
	June 30, 2022		Next 12 Months
Canadian Dollar	$	(141)	$	(141)
Philippine Peso		(10,323)		(5,983)
Mexican Peso		2,736		1,953
	$	(7,728)	$	(4,171)

Our cash flow hedges are valued using models based on market observable inputs, including both forward and spot foreign exchange rates, implied volatility, and counterparty credit risk. The decrease in fair value from December 31, 2021 reflects changes in the currency translation between the U.S. dollar and Mexican Peso and U.S. dollar and Philippine pesos.

We recorded net gains of $126 thousand and $3.3 million for settled cash flow hedge contracts and the related premiums for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. These gains were reflected in Revenue in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss). If the exchange rates between our various currency pairs were to increase or decrease by 10% from current period-end levels, we would incur a material gain or loss on the contracts. However, any gain or loss would be mitigated by corresponding increases or decreases in our underlying exposures.

Other than the transactions hedged as discussed above and in Part I, Item 1. Financial Statements, Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, the majority of the transactions of our U.S. and foreign operations are denominated in their respective local currency. However, transactions are denominated in other currencies from time-to-time. We do not currently engage in hedging activities related to these types of foreign currency risks because we believe them to be insignificant as we endeavor to settle these accounts on a timely basis. For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, approximately 14% and 14%, respectively, of revenue was derived from contracts denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Our results from operations and revenue could be adversely affected if the U.S. dollar strengthens significantly against foreign currencies.

Fair Value of Debt and Equity Securities

We did not have any investments in marketable debt or equity securities as of June 30, 2022 or December 31, 2021.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

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

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

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

We carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the CEO and CFO, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as of June 30, 2022, the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q. Based on this evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

Inherent Limitations of Internal Controls

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

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Item 1A. Risk Factors in our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. In addition to the risk factors identified in our 2021 Annual Report, please consider the following additional Risk Factors.

Our operations in Europe, especially in former Eastern Bloc countries, may be impacted by the Russia-Ukraine conflict.

In February 2022, the Russian Federation invaded Ukraine, resulting in military actions, economic disruption in Europe, broad sanctions against Russia and its political and economic elite, and the mass exodus of refugees to Poland and other neighboring countries (the “Conflict”). More recently, the Russian Federation made open threats against various countries that support Ukraine in the Conflict and against European countries interested in joining the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (“NATO”). Although the specific nature of these threats is not clear, experts believe that Russia may use traditional warfare, cyber-attacks, or manipulation of supplies of energy to Europe to discourage anti-Russian sentiment and actions. Further, on April 27, 2022, Russia took an unprecedented step of breaching its gas supply contracts with Poland and Bulgaria where TTEC has operations. Lack of access to the Russian gas supply in Poland and Bulgaria may impact business operations in these countries and employees’ ability to deliver services. Although the full potential impact on TTEC’s or its clients’ European operations in general and on TTEC’s operations in Poland and Bulgaria, in particular, from the Russian aggression in Europe is not yet clear, if we are unable to continue delivering services from our current locations in Europe or if our clients reduce our service volumes because of the Conflict, our growth strategy, revenue generation and financial results of operations in Europe could be materially impacted.

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

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

In November 2001, our Board of Directors (“Board”) authorized a stock repurchase program with the objective of increasing stockholder returns. The Board periodically authorizes additional increases to the program. The most recent Board authorization to purchase additional common stock occurred in February 2017, whereby the Board increased the program allowance by $25.0 million. Since inception of the program through June 30, 2022, the Board has authorized the repurchase of shares up to a total value of $762.3 million, of which we have purchased 46.1 million shares on the open market for $735.8 million. The Company did not repurchase any of its shares during the three months ended June 30, 2022. As of June 30, 2022 the remaining amount authorized for repurchases under the program was approximately $26.6 million. The stock repurchase program does not have an expiration date.
