NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1—BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Business, consolidation and presentation

We are a leading pure play payments technology company delivering innovative software and services to our customers globally. Our technologies, services and employee expertise enable us to provide a broad range of solutions that allow our customers to operate their businesses more efficiently across a variety of channels around the world. We operate in three reportable segments: Merchant Solutions, Issuer Solutions and Business and Consumer Solutions, which are described in "Note 11—Segment Information." Global Payments Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries are referred to herein collectively as "Global Payments," the "Company," "we," "our" or "us," unless the context requires otherwise.

These unaudited consolidated financial statements include our accounts and those of our majority-owned subsidiaries, and all intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") for interim financial information pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2019 was derived from the audited financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP for annual financial statements.

In the opinion of our management, all known adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim periods have been made. These adjustments consist of normal recurring accruals and estimates that affect the carrying amount of assets and liabilities. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

COVID-19 Update

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of the COVID-19 virus a global pandemic. The pandemic is causing major disruptions to businesses and markets worldwide as the virus continues to spread. A number of countries as well as many states and cities within the United States have implemented measures in an effort to contain the virus, including physical distancing, travel restrictions, border closures, limitations on public gatherings, work from home and closure of nonessential businesses. The effects of the outbreak are still evolving, and the ultimate severity and duration of the pandemic and the implications on global economic conditions remains uncertain.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. In particular, the magnitude, duration and effects of the COVID-19 pandemic are difficult to predict at this time, and the ultimate effect could result in additional charges related to the recoverability of assets, including financial assets, long-lived assets and goodwill and other losses. These unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect the financial statement effects of COVID-19 based upon management’s estimates and assumptions utilizing the most currently available information.

Recently adopted accounting pronouncements

Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2018-15— In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2018-15, "Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer's Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement that is a Service Contract (A Consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force)." ASU 2018-15 provides additional guidance on the accounting for costs of implementation activities performed in a cloud computing arrangement (i.e., hosting arrangement) that is a service contract. The new guidance amends the definition of a hosting arrangement and requires a customer in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract to capitalize certain implementation costs following the internal-use software capitalization criteria within Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Subtopic 350-40.

We adopted ASU 2018-15 on January 1, 2020, applying the guidance prospectively to all implementation costs incurred on or after the date of adoption. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements. We have historically capitalized implementation costs associated with cloud computing arrangements that are service contracts following the guidance in Subtopic 350-40 and will continue to do so pursuant to the clarifications provided in the new guidance. We amortize capitalized implementation costs to expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the applicable hosting arrangement.

ASU 2016-13— We adopted ASU 2016-13, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments" on January 1, 2020 using the modified retrospective transition method. The adoption of this standard resulted in a cumulative-effect adjustment to decrease retained earnings by $5.4 million, net of tax. The amendments in this update changed how we measure and recognize credit impairment for certain financial instruments measured at amortized cost. Under the current expected credit losses model required by ASU 2016-13, we recognize at asset inception and each subsequent reporting date an estimate of credit losses expected to occur over the remaining life of each pool of financial assets with similar risk characteristics.

We have exposure to credit losses for financial assets such as accounts receivable, certain settlement processing assets, check guarantee claims receivable assets and advances to sales representatives. We utilize a combination of aging or loss-rate methods to develop an estimate of current expected credit losses, depending on the nature and risk profile of the underlying asset pool. A broad range of information is considered in the estimation process, including historical loss information adjusted for current conditions and expectations of future trends. The estimation process also includes consideration of qualitative and quantitative risk factors associated with the age of asset balances, expected timing of payment, contract terms and conditions, changes in specific customer risk profiles or mix of customers, geographic risk, industry or economic trends and relevant environmental factors.

As of June 30, 2020, the total allowance for credit losses was approximately $39.9 million. Financial assets are presented net of the allowance for credit losses in the consolidated balance sheets. The measurement of the allowance for credit losses is recognized through credit loss expense. Depending on the nature of the underlying asset, credit loss expense is included as a component of cost of service or selling, general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of income. Write-offs are recorded in the period in which the asset is deemed to be uncollectible. Recoveries are recorded when received as a direct credit to the credit loss expense in the consolidated statements of income. Prior to the adoption of ASU 2016-13, credit losses on these financial instruments were recognized when an occurrence was deemed to be probable.

Recently issued pronouncements not yet adopted

ASU 2019-12—In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes," which is intended to enhance and simplify various aspects of the accounting for income taxes. The amendments in this update remove certain exceptions to the general principles in ASC Topic 740 related to the approach for intraperiod tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. ASU 2019-12 also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistency in application of the accounting for franchise taxes, enacted changes in tax laws or rates and transactions that result in a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill. ASU 2019-12 is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted in any interim period. We are evaluating the effect of ASU 2019-12 on our consolidated financial statements. Based upon the analysis performed to date, we do not believe the adoption of ASU 2019-12 will have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2020-04—In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, "Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848)," which provides optional expedients and exceptions to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The amendments in this update apply only to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference London Inter-bank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The expedients and exceptions provided by the amendments do not apply to contract modifications made and hedging relationships

Table of Contents

entered into or evaluated after December 31, 2022, except for hedging relationships existing as of December 31, 2022 for which an entity has elected certain optional expedients and are retained through the end of the hedging relationship. The amendments in this update also include a general principle that permits an entity to consider contract modifications due to reference rate reform to be an event that does not require contract remeasurement at the modification date or reassessment of a previous accounting determination. If elected, the optional expedients for contract modifications must be applied consistently for all eligible contracts or eligible transactions within the relevant ASC Topic or Industry Subtopic that contains the guidance that otherwise would be required to be applied. The amendments in this update were effective upon issuance and may be applied prospectively to contract modifications made and hedging relationships entered into or evaluated on or before December 31, 2022. We are evaluating the effect of ASU 2020-04 on our consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 2—ACQUISITIONS

Total System Services, Inc.

On September 18, 2019, we merged with Total System Services, Inc. ("TSYS") (the "Merger"). We accounted for this transaction as a business combination, which generally requires that we record the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at fair value as of the acquisition date. The provisional estimated acquisition-date fair values of major classes of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of December 31, 2019 and June 30, 2020, including a reconciliation to the total purchase consideration, were as follows:



	Provisional Amounts at December 31, 2019			Measurement-Period Adjustments			Provisional Amounts at June 30, 2020

	(in thousands)

Cash and cash equivalents	$	446,009		$	—		$	446,009
Accounts receivable	442,848			(2,860		)	439,988
Identified intangible assets	10,980,000			978			10,980,978
Property and equipment	644,084			(978		)	643,106
Other assets	1,474,825			(4,120		)	1,470,705
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities	(614,060		)	4,333			(609,727		)
Debt	(3,295,342		)	4,787			(3,290,555		)
Deferred income tax liabilities	(2,687,849		)	63,419			(2,624,430		)
Other liabilities	(314,415		)	—			(314,415		)
Total identifiable net assets	7,076,100			65,559			7,141,659
Goodwill	17,398,853			(65,559		)	17,333,294
Total purchase consideration	$	24,474,953		$	—		$	24,474,953

As of June 30, 2020, we considered these amounts to be provisional because we were still in the process of reviewing information to support the valuations of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we made measurement-period adjustments, as shown in the table above, that decreased the amount of provisional goodwill by $65.6 million. The decrease in deferred income tax liabilities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 primarily relates to a refined analysis of the outside bases of partnerships. The effects of the measurement-period adjustments on our consolidated statements of income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 were not material.

As of June 30, 2020, provisional goodwill arising from the acquisition of $17.3 billion was included in our reportable segments as follows: $7.1 billion in the Merchant Solutions segment, $7.9 billion in the Issuer Solutions segment and $2.3 billion in the Business and Consumer Solutions segment. Goodwill was attributable to expected growth opportunities, an assembled workforce and potential synergies from combining the acquired business into our existing business. We expect that substantially all of the goodwill from this acquisition will not be deductible for income tax purposes.

At June 30, 2020, unamortized discount on senior notes was $8.9 million, and unamortized debt issuance costs on senior notes and the unsecured term loan facility were $51.4 million. Unamortized debt issuance costs on our senior notes and unsecured term loans at December 31, 2019 were $46.6 million.

The amortization of debt discounts and debt issuance costs is recognized as an increase to interest expense over the terms of the respective debt instruments. Amortization of discounts and debt issuance costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 was $3.0 million and $5.9 million, respectively. Amortization of discounts and debt issuance costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 was $3.1 million and $6.1 million, respectively.

Senior Unsecured Notes

We have $7.1 billion in aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes, as presented in the table above. Interest on the senior notes is payable semi-annually upon various dates. Each series of the senior notes is redeemable, at our option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time-to-time at the redemption prices set forth in the related indenture. The difference between the acquisition fair value and face value of senior notes assumed in the Merger is recognized over the terms of the respective notes as a reduction of interest expense. The amortization of this fair value adjustment was $9.0 million and $18.1 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.

On May 15, 2020, we issued $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of 2.900% senior unsecured notes due May 2030 and received proceeds of $996.7 million, net of discounts. We incurred debt issuance costs of approximately $8.4 million, including underwriting fees, fees for professional services and registration fees, all of which were capitalized and reflected as a reduction of the related carrying amount of the notes in our consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2020. Interest on the notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year, commencing November 15, 2020. The notes are unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness and rank equally in right of payment with all of our other outstanding unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness. We used the net proceeds from the offering to repay a portion of the outstanding indebtedness on our revolving credit facility and for general corporate purposes.

As of June 30, 2020, our senior notes had a total carrying amount of $7.1 billion and an estimated fair value of $7.7 billion. The estimated fair value of our senior notes was based on quoted market prices in an active market and is considered to be a Level 1 measurement of the valuation hierarchy. The fair value of other long-term debt approximated its carrying amount at June 30, 2020.

Senior Unsecured Credit Facilities

Borrowings under the term loan facility were made in U.S. dollars and borrowings under the revolving credit facility are available to be made in U.S. dollars, euros, sterling, Canadian dollars and, subject to certain conditions, certain other currencies at our option. Borrowings in U.S. dollars and certain other LIBOR quoted currencies will bear interest, at our option, at a rate equal to either (1) the rate (adjusted for any statutory reserve requirements for eurocurrency liabilities) for eurodollar deposits in the London interbank market, (2) a floating rate of interest set forth on the applicable LIBOR screen page designated by Bank of America, N.A. or (3) the highest of (a) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.5%, (b) the rate of interest as publicly announced by Bank of America as its "prime rate" or (c) LIBOR plus 1.0%, in each case, plus an applicable margin.

As of June 30, 2020, the interest rate on the term loan facility was 1.55%. In addition, we are required to pay a quarterly commitment fee with respect to the unused portion of the revolving credit facility at an applicable rate per annum ranging from 0.125% to 0.300% depending on our credit rating. Beginning on December 31, 2022, and at the end of each quarter thereafter, the term loan facility must be repaid in quarterly installments in the amount of 2.50% of original principal through the maturity date with the remaining principal balance due upon maturity in September 2024. The revolving credit facility also matures in September 2024.

We may issue standby letters of credit of up to $250 million in the aggregate under the revolving credit facility. Outstanding letters of credit under the revolving credit facility reduce the amount of borrowings available to us. The amounts available to borrow under the revolving credit facility are also determined by our financial leverage covenant. As of June 30, 2020, the total available commitments under the revolving credit facility were $2.3 billion and there were no outstanding borrowings.

Compliance with Covenants

The senior unsecured term loan and revolving credit facility contain customary conditions to funding, affirmative covenants, negative covenants, financial covenants and events of default. As of June 30, 2020, financial covenants under the term loan facility required a leverage ratio of 3.50 to 1.00 and an interest coverage ratio of 3.00 to 1.00. We were in compliance with all applicable

Table of Contents

covenants as of June 30, 2020.

Settlement Lines of Credit

In various markets where we do business, we have specialized lines of credit, which are restricted for use in funding settlement. The settlement lines of credit generally have variable interest rates, are subject to annual review and are denominated in local currency but may, in some cases, facilitate borrowings in multiple currencies. For certain of our lines of credit, the available credit is increased by the amount of cash we have on deposit in specific accounts with the lender. Accordingly, the amount of the outstanding lines of credit may exceed the stated credit limit. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, a total of $62.1 million and $74.5 million, respectively, of cash on deposit was used to determine the available credit.

As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had $439.5 million and $463.2 million, respectively, outstanding under these lines of credit with additional capacity to fund settlement of $1,124.6 million as of June 30, 2020. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the maximum and average outstanding balances under these lines of credit were $508.5 million and $282.9 million, respectively. The weighted-average interest rate on these borrowings was 2.11% and 3.16% at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

Derivative Agreements

We have interest rate swap agreements with financial institutions to hedge changes in cash flows attributable to interest rate risk on a portion of our variable-rate debt instruments. Net amounts to be received or paid under the swap agreements are reflected as adjustments to interest expense. Since we have designated the interest rate swap agreements as portfolio cash flow hedges, unrealized gains or losses resulting from adjusting the swaps to fair value are recorded as components of other comprehensive income (loss). The fair values of our interest rate swaps were determined based on the present value of the estimated future net cash flows using implied rates in the applicable yield curve as of the valuation date. These derivative instruments were classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy.

The table below presents information about our derivative financial instruments, designated as cash flow hedges, included in the consolidated balance sheets:

As of June 30, 2020, the amount of net unrealized losses in accumulated other comprehensive loss related to our interest rate swaps that is expected to be reclassified into interest expense during the next 12 months was $42.4 million.

Interest Expense

Interest expense was $81.1 million and $65.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $162.2 million and $123.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

NOTE 6—INCOME TAX

Our effective income tax rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 were 3.0% and 9.0%, respectively. Our effective income tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 differed from the U.S. statutory rate primarily as a result of tax credits, excess tax benefits of share-based awards that are recognized upon vesting or settlement and the foreign-derived intangible income deduction. Our effective income tax rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 were 19.9% and 18.4%, respectively.

We conduct business globally and file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state and foreign jurisdictions. In the normal course of business, we are subject to examination by taxing authorities around the world, including, without limitation, the United States and the United Kingdom. We are no longer subject to state income tax examinations for years ended on or before May 31, 2007, U.S. federal income tax examinations for years ended on or before May 31, 2016 and U.K. federal income tax examinations for years ended on or before May 31, 2016.

NOTE 7—SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

We repurchase our common stock mainly through open market repurchase plans and, at times, through accelerated share repurchase programs. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, there were no repurchases. During the three months ended June 30, 2019, we repurchased and retired 513,116 shares of our common stock at a cost, including commissions, of $72.0 million, or $140.32 per share. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, we repurchased and retired 2,094,731 and 1,808,398 shares of our common stock at a cost, including commissions, of $404.0 million and $230.0 million, or $192.85 per share and $127.18 per share, respectively.

On February 26, 2020, our board of directors approved an increase to our existing share repurchase program authorization, which raised the total available authorization to $1 billion. As of June 30, 2020, the amount that may yet be purchased under our share repurchase program was $880.0 million.

On July 29, 2020, our board of directors declared a dividend of $0.195 per share payable on September 24, 2020 to common shareholders of record as of September 10, 2020.

	Options		Weighted-Average Exercise Price		Weighted-Average Remaining Contractual Term	Aggregate Intrinsic Value

	(in thousands)				(years)	(in millions)

Outstanding at December 31, 2019	1,755			$74.06	6.5	$190.3
Granted	125		200.42
Forfeited	(2	)	113.48
Exercised	(484	)	61.77
Outstanding at June 30, 2020	1,394			$89.60	6.6	$115.3

Options vested and exercisable at June 30, 2020	996			$68.52	5.7	$100.7

We recognized compensation expense for stock options of $2.2 million and $0.9 million during the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $4.1 million and $1.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The aggregate intrinsic value of stock options exercised during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was $66.5 million and $18.9 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2020, we had $12.6 million of unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested stock options that we expect to recognize over a weighted-average period of 2.0 years.

The weighted-average grant-date fair value of stock options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was $54.85 and $39.60, respectively. Fair value was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes valuation model with the following weighted-average assumptions:



	Six Months Ended
	June 30, 2020	June 30, 2019

Risk-free interest rate	1.24%	2.49%
Expected volatility	30%	30%
Dividend yield	0.39%	0.04%
Expected term (years)	5	5

The risk-free interest rate was based on the yield of a zero coupon U.S. Treasury security with a maturity equal to the expected life of the option from the date of the grant. Our assumption on expected volatility was based on our historical volatility. The dividend yield assumption was determined using our average stock price over the preceding year and the annualized amount of our most current quarterly dividend per share. We based our assumptions on the expected term of the options on our analysis of the historical exercise patterns of the options and our assumption on the future exercise pattern of options.

NOTE 9—EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share ("EPS") was computed by dividing net income attributable to Global Payments by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period. Earnings available to common shareholders was the same as reported net income attributable to Global Payments for all periods presented.

Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income attributable to Global Payments by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period, including the effect of share-based awards that would have a dilutive effect on EPS. All stock options with an exercise price lower than the average market share price of our common stock for the period are assumed to have a dilutive effect on EPS. The dilutive share base for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 excluded approximately

NOTE 11—SEGMENT INFORMATION

We operate in three reportable segments: Merchant Solutions, Issuer Solutions and Business and Consumer Solutions. We evaluate performance and allocate resources based on the operating income of each operating segment. The operating income of each operating segment includes the revenues of the segment less expenses that are directly related to those revenues. Operating overhead, shared costs and share-based compensation costs are included in Corporate. Interest and other income, interest and other expense, income tax expense and equity in income of equity method investments, net of tax, are not allocated to the individual segments. We do not evaluate the performance of or allocate resources to our operating segments using asset data. The accounting policies of the reportable operating segments are the same as those described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and our summary of significant accounting policies in "Note 1 - Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies."

In connection with an organizational realignment implemented during the fourth quarter of 2019, the presentation of segment information for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 has been recast to align with the current segment presentation. Information on segments and reconciliations to consolidated revenues, consolidated operating income and consolidated depreciation and amortization was as follows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019:

Solutions segment reflected the effect of acquisition and integration expenses of $6.6 million and $8.4 million, respectively. Operating loss for Corporate included acquisition and integration expense of $150.4 million and $11.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

NOTE 12—COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Purchase Obligations

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, our purchase obligations increased as a result of our entry into an arrangement to acquire software and related services for $293.8 million. We financed $97.6 million of this amount utilizing a two-year vendor financing arrangement. As of June 30, 2020, the estimated remaining purchase commitments that are due for this purchase were $29.7 million during the remainder of 2020, $64.9 million during 2021, $66.9 million during 2022 and $16.8 million during 2023.

Legal Matters

On September 23, 2019, a jury in the Superior Court of Dekalb County, Georgia, awarded Frontline Processing Corp. ("Frontline") $135.2 million in damages, costs and attorney's fees (plus interest) following a trial of a breach of contract dispute between Frontline and Global Payments, wherein Frontline alleged that Global Payments violated provisions of the parties' Referral Agreement and Master Services Agreement. The Superior Court entered a final judgment on the verdict in favor of Frontline on September 30, 2019. We believe the jury verdict is in error and Frontline’s case is completely without merit, and we are appealing the decision to the Georgia Court of Appeals. While it is reasonably possible that we will incur some loss between zero and the judgment amount plus interest, we have determined that it is not probable that Global Payments has incurred a loss under the applicable accounting standard (Accounting Standards Codification Topic 450, Contingencies) as of June 30, 2020. As a result, we have not recorded a liability on the consolidated balance sheet with respect to this litigation.

ITEM 2—MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report and the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and consolidated financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. This discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements about our plans and expectations of what may happen in the future. Forward-looking statements are based on a number of assumptions and estimates that are inherently subject to significant risks and uncertainties, and our actual results could differ materially from the results anticipated by our forward-looking statements.

Executive Overview

COVID-19 Update

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of the COVID-19 virus a global pandemic. This outbreak continues to cause major disruptions to businesses and markets worldwide as the virus spreads in certain jurisdictions, and restrictions to control the spread of the virus remain in place. A number of countries as well as certain states and cities within the United States have enacted temporary closures of businesses, issued quarantine or shelter-in-place orders and taken other restrictive measures in response to COVID-19. We continue to closely monitor the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic; however, the effects of the outbreak are still evolving, and the ultimate severity and duration of the pandemic and the implications on global economic conditions remains uncertain. We are continuing to operate normally worldwide, and, at this time, we do not anticipate any significant operational effects as a result of the pandemic.

Starting in mid-March, the COVID-19 pandemic began to significantly affect our financial results as governments took actions to encourage social distancing and implement shelter-in-place directives. As certain state and local governments in the United States and abroad began to gradually ease restrictions, and certain businesses reopened at reduced capacities, we saw improvement in our financial results and positive trends throughout the latter half of the second quarter. We expect that the COVID-19 pandemic will continue to have an adverse effect on our revenues and earnings for the remainder of 2020, although the magnitude, duration and ultimate effects of the COVID-19 pandemic are not possible to predict at this time. We have implemented cost-saving actions, such as reductions in employee compensation costs and discretionary spending, to help mitigate the financial effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. We have also temporarily suspended activity under our share repurchase program and reduced planned capital investments in the business from our initial expectations prior to the pandemic.

For a further discussion of trends, uncertainties and other factors that could affect our continuing operating results related to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, see the section entitled "Risk Factors" in Item 1A in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Financial Highlights

Highlights related to our financial condition at June 30, 2020 and results of operations for the three and six months then ended include the following:

•

Consolidated revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 increased to $1,672.0 million and $3,575.6 million, respectively, compared to $935.2 million and $1,818.2 million for the prior-year periods due to additional revenues from the acquired operations of TSYS of $997.0 million and $2,052.0 million, respectively, partially offset by the unfavorable effects of COVID-19 on our revenues.


•	Consolidated operating income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 was $107.6 million and $351.6 million, respectively, compared to $221.7 million and $421.2 million for the prior-year periods. Operating margin for the three and

Table of Contents

six months ended June 30, 2020 was 6.4% and 9.8%, respectively, compared to 23.7% and 23.2% for the prior-year period. For the three and six months ended June 20, 2020, consolidated operating income and operating margins were negatively impacted by the unfavorable effects of COVID-19 on our revenues.

•

Net income attributable to Global Payments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 was $37.3 million and $180.9 million, respectively, compared to $120.5 million and $232.8 million for the prior-year periods. The additional income from the acquired operations of TSYS was more than offset by increases in acquisition and integration expenses and interest expense, and the unfavorable effects of COVID-19 on our revenues.


•	Diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 was $0.12 and $0.60, compared to $0.77 and $1.48 for the prior-year periods, primarily reflecting the unfavorable effects of COVID-19 on our net income, as well as an increase in the number of weighted-average number of shares outstanding as a result of issuing common shares as purchase consideration in the Merger.


•	On May 15, 2020, we issued $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of 2.900% senior unsecured notes due May 2030. We used the net proceeds from this offering to repay a portion of the outstanding indebtedness on our revolving credit facility and for general corporate purposes. As of June 30, 2020, there were no outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility.

Results of Operations

We operate in three reportable segments: Merchant Solutions, Issuer Solutions and Business and Consumer Solutions. We evaluate performance and allocate resources based on the operating income of each operating segment. In connection with an organizational realignment implemented after the Merger in the fourth quarter of 2019, the presentation of segment information for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 has been recast to align with the segment presentation for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.

included acquisition and integration expenses of $150.4 million and $11.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Revenues

Consolidated revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 increased by 78.8% and 96.7%, respectively, to $1,672.0 million and $3,575.6 million, compared to $935.2 million and $1,818.2 million in the prior year, primarily due to additional revenues of $997.0 million and $2,052.0 million from the acquired operations of TSYS, partially offset by the adverse effects of COVID-19 on our revenues.

Merchant Solutions Segment. Revenues from our Merchant Solutions segment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 increased by 7.7% and 22.6%, respectively, to $1,001.6 million and $2,216.8 million, compared to $929.9 million and $1,807.7 million in the prior year, primarily due to additional revenues from the acquired operations of TSYS. We experienced significant revenue declines starting in mid-March related to COVID-19 due to a reduction in consumer spending and closures of certain of our merchant customer businesses throughout North America, Europe and Asia Pacific. We saw improvement in our financial results in May and June as certain state and local governments in the United States and abroad began to gradually ease restrictions and consumer spending began to gradually increase.

Issuer Solutions Segment. Revenues from our Issuer Solutions segment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 were $470.0 million and $973.8 million, respectively, primarily reflecting revenues from the acquired operations of TSYS. Starting in mid-March, we experienced revenue declines as a result of lower transaction volumes, particularly related to the processing of commercial cards as a result of COVID-19. We saw improvement in our financial results in May and June as state and local governments in the United States and abroad began to ease restrictions.

Business and Consumer Solutions Segment. Revenues from our Business and Consumer segment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 were $216.7 million and $420.7 million, respectively, reflecting revenues from the acquired operations of TSYS. Our Business and Consumer Solutions segment experienced revenue declines starting in mid-March due to reduced consumer spending; however, these declines were mitigated by revenues from our customers loading individual stimulus payments and supplementary unemployment insurance distributions resulting from the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act ("CARES Act"). Additionally, we saw improvements in our financial results later in the second quarter from increases in consumer spending as state and local governments in the United States began to gradually ease quarantine restrictions.

Operating Expenses

Cost of Service. Cost of service for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 increased by 195.7% and 200.8%, respectively, to $893.7 million and $1,827.6 million, compared to $302.3 million and $607.5 million for the prior year, primarily due to additional costs associated with the acquired operations of TSYS, including the amortization of acquired intangibles. Cost of service for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 reflects amortization of acquired intangibles of $314.0 million and $628.3 million, respectively, compared to $103.5 million and $211.0 million, respectively, for the prior year. Cost of service as a percentage of revenues increased to 53.5% and 51.1%, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to 32.3% and 33.4% for the prior year, primarily due to the increase in amortization of acquired intangibles.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 increased by 63.1% and 76.9%, respectively, to $670.6 million and $1,396.4 million, compared to $411.2 million and $789.5 million for the prior year. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the prior year was primarily due to additional costs associated with the acquired operations of TSYS and included acquisition and integration expenses of $82.2 million, primarily related to the Merger, compared to $13.0 million for the prior year. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the prior year was primarily due to additional costs associated with the acquired operations of TSYS and included acquisition and integration expenses of $153.8 million, primarily related to the Merger, compared to $17.6 million for the prior year. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues was 40.1% and 39.1%, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to 44.0% and 43.4% for the prior year.

Corporate. Corporate expenses increased by $108.4 million and $217.0 million, respectively, to $173.7 million and $324.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to $65.3 million and $107.4 million for the prior year, primarily due to additional expenses associated with the acquired operations of TSYS and an increase in acquisition and integration expenses primarily due to the Merger. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, Corporate expenses included acquisition and integration expenses of $80.7 million and $150.4 million, respectively, compared to $10.5 million and $11.1 million, respectively, for the prior year. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, Corporate expenses included charges for employee termination benefits of $24.1 million and $41.7 million, respectively, which included $1.7 million and $4.2 million, respectively, of share-based compensation expense. We expect to incur additional charges as Merger–related integration activities continue in 2020.

Operating Income and Operating Margin

Consolidated operating income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 was $107.6 million and $351.6 million, respectively, compared to $221.7 million and $421.2 million for the prior year. Operating margin for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 was 6.4% and 9.8%, respectively, compared to 23.7% and 23.2% for the prior year. Consolidated operating income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 includes additional income from the acquired operations of TSYS of $103.8 million and $219.3 million, respectively. Consolidated operating income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 reflects an increase in amortization of acquired intangibles of $210.5 million and $417.3 million, respectively, and an increase in acquisition and integration expenses of $71.0 million and $137.5 million, respectively, primarily due to the Merger, compared to the prior year. The unfavorable effects of COVID-19 on our revenues, and incremental expenses directly related to COVID-19, also contributed to the decrease in consolidated operating income and operating margin compared to the prior year.

Other Income/Expense, Net

Interest and other expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 increased by $17.2 million and $50.8 million, respectively, to $82.9 million and $175.5 million, compared to the prior year, as a result of the increase in our outstanding borrowings.

Income Tax Expense

Our effective income tax rates for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 were 3.0% and 19.9%, respectively. Our effective income tax rates for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 were 9.0% and 18.4%, respectively. The changes in our effective tax rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 from the prior year reflects the effect of tax credits and benefits associated with share-based awards.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

In the ordinary course of our business, a significant portion of our liquidity comes from operating cash flows and borrowings, including the capacity under our credit facilities. Cash flow from operating activities is used to make planned capital investments in our business, to pursue acquisitions that meet our corporate objectives, to pay dividends, to pay principal and interest on our outstanding debt and to repurchase shares of our common stock. Accumulated cash balances are invested in high-quality, marketable short-term instruments.

Our capital plan objectives are to support our operational needs and strategic plan for long-term growth while maintaining a low cost of capital. We use a combination of bank financing, such as borrowings under our credit facilities, and senior note issuances for general corporate purposes and to fund acquisitions. In addition, specialized lines of credit are also used in certain of our markets to fund merchant settlement prior to receipt of funds from the card networks.

We believe that our current level of cash and borrowing capacity under our senior unsecured revolving credit facility, together with expected future cash flows from operations, will be sufficient to meet the needs of our existing operations and planned requirements for the foreseeable future. We have implemented measures to manage liquidity in future periods, taking into account the potential effects of COVID-19, including the reduction of certain operating expenses, including compensation costs, other discretionary expenses and planned capital expenditures, as well as suspension of repurchases of our common stock. We regularly evaluate our liquidity and capital position relative to cash requirements, and we may elect to raise additional funds in the future through the issuance of debt or equity or by other means.

Table of Contents

At June 30, 2020, we had cash and cash equivalents totaling $1,825.6 million. Of this amount, we considered $1,207.2 million to be available for general purposes, of which $29.0 million was undistributed foreign earnings considered to be indefinitely reinvested outside the United States. The available cash of $1,207.2 million did not include the following: (i) settlement-related cash balances, (ii) funds held as collateral for merchant losses ("Merchant Reserves") and (iii) funds held for customers. Settlement-related cash balances represent funds that we hold when the incoming amount from the card networks precedes the funding obligation to the merchant. Settlement-related cash balances are not restricted; however, these funds are generally paid out in satisfaction of settlement processing obligations the following day. Merchant Reserves serve as collateral to minimize contingent liabilities associated with any losses that may occur under the merchant's agreement. While this cash is not restricted in its use, we believe that designating this cash as a Merchant Reserve strengthens our fiduciary standing with our member sponsors and is in accordance with the guidelines set by the card networks. Funds held for customers and the corresponding liability that we record in customer deposits include amounts collected prior to remittance on our customers' behalf.

Operating activities provided net cash of $960.3 million and $247.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, which reflect net income adjusted for noncash items, including depreciation and amortization and changes in operating assets and liabilities. Fluctuations in operating assets and liabilities are affected primarily by timing of month-end and transaction volume, especially changes in settlement processing assets and obligations. Changes in settlement processing assets and obligations increased operating cash flows by $136.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and decreased operating cash flows by $41.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2019. The increase in cash flows from operating activities from the prior year was primarily due to the increase in earnings after the adjustment for certain noncash items, including amortization of acquired intangibles and depreciation and amortization of property and equipment.

We used net cash in investing activities of $270.3 million and $198.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, primarily to fund acquisitions and capital expenditures. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, we used cash of $75.1 million and $78.2 million, respectively, for acquisitions.

We made capital expenditures of $208.4 million and $133.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. These investments include software and hardware to support the development of new technologies, infrastructure to support our growing business and continued consolidation and enhancement of our operating platforms. We will continue to make significant capital investments in the business, but we will do so at a reduced rate from our initial expectations prior to the pandemic.

Financing activities include borrowings and repayments under our various debt arrangements, as well as borrowings and repayments made under specialized lines of credit to fund daily settlement activities. Our borrowing arrangements are further described in "Note 5—Long-Term Debt and Lines of Credit" in the notes to the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and below under "Long-Term Debt and Lines of Credit." Financing activities also include cash flows associated with common stock repurchase programs and share-based compensation programs, as well as cash distributions made to noncontrolling interests and our shareholders. We used net cash in financing activities of $510.1 million and $212.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Proceeds from long-term debt were $1,867.0 million and $586.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Repayments of long-term debt were $1,809.2 million and $569.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Proceeds from and repayments of long-term debt consist of borrowings and repayments that we make with available cash, from time-to-time, under our Revolving Credit Facility, as well as scheduled principal repayments we make on our term loans. On May 15, 2020, we issued $1.0 billion aggregate principle senior unsecured notes. We used the net proceeds from this offering to repay a portion of the outstanding indebtedness on our revolving credit facility and for general corporate purposes. Activity under our settlement lines of credit is affected primarily by timing of month-end and transaction volume. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, we had net repayments of settlement lines of credit of $25.5 million and net borrowings of settlement lines of credit of $32.2 million, respectively.

We repurchase our common stock mainly through open market repurchase plans. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, we used $421.2 million and $234.0 million, respectively, to repurchase shares of our common stock. As of June 30, 2020, we had $880.0 million of share repurchase authority remaining under a share repurchase program authorized by the board of directors. We have temporarily suspended activity under our share repurchase program.

Table of Contents

We paid dividends to our common shareholders in the amounts of $116.6 million and $3.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Long-Term Debt and Lines of Credit

Senior Unsecured Notes

We have $7.1 billion in aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes, which mature at various dates ranging from April 2021 to August 2049. Interest on the senior notes is payable semi-annually upon various dates. Each series of the senior notes is redeemable, at our option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time-to-time at the redemption prices set forth in the related indenture.

On May 15, 2020, we issued $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of 2.900% senior unsecured notes due May 2030 and received proceeds of $996.7 million, net of discounts. We incurred debt issuance costs of approximately $8.4 million, including underwriting fees, fees for professional services and registration fees, all of which were capitalized and reflected as a reduction of the related carrying amount of the notes in our consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2020. Interest on the notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year, commencing November 15, 2020. The notes are unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness and rank equally in right of payment with all of our outstanding unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness. We used the net proceeds from the offering to repay a portion of the outstanding indebtedness on our revolving credit facility and for general corporate purposes.

Senior Unsecured Credit Facilities

We have a term loan credit agreement ("Term Loan Credit Agreement") and a revolving credit agreement ("Unsecured Revolving Credit Agreement") in each case with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, and a syndicate of financial institutions, as lenders and other agents. The Term Loan Credit Agreement provides for a senior unsecured $2 billion term loan facility. The Unsecured Revolving Credit Agreement provides for a senior unsecured $3 billion revolving credit facility. Borrowings under the term loan facility were made in U.S. dollars and borrowings under the revolving credit facility are available to be made in U.S. dollars, euros, sterling, Canadian dollars and, subject to certain conditions, certain other currencies at our option. Borrowings in U.S. dollars and certain other London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR")-quoted currencies will bear interest, at our option, at a rate equal to either (1) the rate (adjusted for any statutory reserve requirements for eurocurrency liabilities) for eurodollar deposits in the London interbank market, (2) a floating rate of interest set forth on the applicable LIBOR screen page designated by Bank of America, N.A., or (3) the highest of (a) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.5%, (b) the rate of interest as publicly announced by Bank of America, N.A., as its "prime rate" or (c) LIBOR plus 1.0%, in each case, plus an applicable margin. As of June 30, 2020, borrowings outstanding under the term loan facility were $2.0 billion and there were no borrowings outstanding under the revolving credit facility.

We continue to monitor developments related to the anticipated transition from LIBOR to an alternative benchmark reference rate, such as the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR"), beginning January 1, 2022. Additionally, we maintain contact with our lenders and other stakeholders to evaluate the potential effects of these changes on our future financing activities.

As of June 30, 2020, the interest rate on the term loan facility was 1.55%. In addition, we are required to pay a quarterly commitment fee with respect to the unused portion of the revolving credit facility at an applicable rate per annum ranging from 0.125% to 0.300% depending on our credit rating. Beginning on December 31, 2022, and at the end of each quarter thereafter, the Term Loan Facility must be repaid in quarterly installments in the amount of 2.50% of original principal through the maturity date with the remaining principal balance due upon maturity in September 2024. The revolving credit facility also matures in September 2024.

Compliance with Covenants

Settlement Lines of Credit

As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 we had $439.5 million and $463.2 million, respectively, outstanding under these lines of credit with additional capacity to fund settlement of $1,124.6 million as of June 30, 2020. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the maximum and average outstanding balances under these lines of credit were $508.5 million and $282.9 million, respectively. The weighted-average interest rate on these borrowings was 2.11% and 3.16% at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

See "Note 5—Long-Term Debt and Lines of Credit" in the notes to the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements for further information about our borrowing agreements.

Commitments and Contractual Obligations

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, our commitments and contractual obligations increased from the amounts disclosed in "Item 7 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations-Commitments and Contractual Obligations" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. The increase primarily relates to the acquisition of software and related services for $293.8 million. We financed $97.6 million of this amount utilizing a two-year vendor financing arrangement. As of June 30, 2020, the estimated remaining purchase commitments for this acquisition were $29.7 million during the remainder of 2020, $64.9 million during 2021, $66.9 million during 2022 and $16.8 million during 2023.

Effects of the COVID-19 Pandemic on our Critical Accounting Policies

Because of the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, we evaluated the potential effects on our financial statements as of June 30, 2020 and for the three and six months then ended. However, the magnitude and duration of the ultimate effect of the COVID-19 pandemic are not possible to predict at this time, and our assessments are therefore subject to material revision.

Goodwill - We considered a variety of factors that might indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of any reporting unit is below its carrying amount at June 30, 2020, including general macroeconomic conditions, industry and market conditions, cost factors, overall financial performance of our reporting units, events or changes affecting the composition or carrying amount of the net assets of our reporting units, our share price and other relevant events. For certain of our reporting units that were recently acquired in the Merger, we also considered the expected near term impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on revenues and our cost mitigation efforts as well as longer term performance expectations. Based on the analyses completed, we believe it is not more likely than not that the carrying amount of any of our reporting units exceeded the fair value as of June 30, 2020.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have not entered into any off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a material effect on our financial condition, revenues, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Effect of New Accounting Pronouncements and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

From time-to-time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or other standards setting bodies that may affect our current and/or future financial statements.

These forward-looking statements, which are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about the industry and markets in which we operate, and beliefs of and assumptions made by our management, involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that could significantly affect the financial condition, results of operations, business plans and the future performance of Global Payments.

For a discussion of our exposure to market risk, refer to Part II, Item 7A, "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk," contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

ITEM 4—CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of June 30, 2020, management carried out, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2020, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in applicable rules and forms and are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in those reports is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the quarter ended June 30, 2020, as part of our ongoing integration activities following the Merger, we continued to apply our controls and procedures to the acquired operations of TSYS and to augment our company-wide controls to address the risks inherent in a business combination of this magnitude.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1—LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are party to a number of claims and lawsuits incidental to our business. In our opinion, the liabilities, if any, which may ultimately result from the outcome of such matters, individually or in the aggregate, are not expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, liquidity, results of operations or cash flows. See "Note 12—Commitments and Contingencies" in the notes to the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements for information about certain legal matters.

ITEM 1A—RISK FACTORS

The following represent material changes to the risk factors included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. The risks factors set forth below update, and should be read together with, the risk factors in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and our Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020.

Our business has been and will likely continue to be negatively affected by the COVID-19 outbreak.

The outbreak of COVID-19 in many countries and regions, including the United States, Europe and Asia-Pacific, which was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization on March 11, 2020, continues to adversely affect global commercial activity and has contributed to significant volatility in the financial markets. We have experienced significant revenue declines related to COVID-19 due to a reduction in consumer spending and closures of certain of our merchant customer businesses throughout North America, Europe and Asia Pacific. We expect that the negative impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on our financial results will continue until economic conditions improve.

We may also experience financial losses due to a number of operational factors, including but not limited to:


•	Third-party disruptions, including potential outages at network providers, call centers and other suppliers;


•	Increased cyber and payment fraud risk related to COVID-19, as cybercriminals attempt to profit from the disruption, given increased online banking, e-commerce and other online activity; and


•	Challenges to the availability and reliability of our solutions and services due to changes to operations, including the possibility of one or more clusters of COVID-19 cases occurring at our facilities, affecting our employees or affecting the systems or employees of our clients or other third parties on which we depend.

These factors may remain prevalent for a significant period of time and may continue to adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition even after the COVID-19 pandemic has subsided. The full effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and are difficult to predict at this time, including, but not limited to, the duration and spread of the pandemic, its severity, the restrictive actions taken to contain the virus or treat its effects, its effects on our customers and how quickly and to what extent normal economic conditions, operations and demand for our services can resume. The current outbreak or continued spread of COVID-19 has caused an economic slowdown and recession in the United States and other markets in which we operate, and it is possible that it could cause a global recession. It may also impact financial markets and corporate credit markets which could adversely impact our access to financing or the terms of any such financing. Accordingly, the ultimate effects on our operations, financial condition and cash flows cannot be determined at this time. Nevertheless, despite the uncertainty of the COVID-19 situation, we expect that the COVID-19 pandemic will have an adverse effect on our revenues and financial results for the remainder of 2020.

Furthermore, the COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting adverse and unpredictable economic conditions are likely to implicate or exacerbate other risks identified in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, which in turn could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and liquidity.
