NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)



1.	Basis of Presentation

Insperity, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Insperity,” “we,” “our,” and “us”), provides an array of human resources (“HR”) and business solutions designed to help improve business performance. Our most comprehensive HR services offerings are provided through our professional employer organization (“PEO”) services, known as Workforce Optimization^® and Workforce Synchronization^TM solutions (together, our “PEO HR Outsourcing solutions”), which encompass a broad range of HR functions, including payroll and employment administration, employee benefits, workers’ compensation, government compliance, performance management, and training and development services, along with our cloud-based human capital management solution, the Insperity Premier^TMplatform.

In addition to our PEO HR Outsourcing solutions, we also offer a comprehensive traditional payroll and human capital management solution, known as Workforce Acceleration. We also offer a number of other business performance solutions, including Time and Attendance, Performance Management, Organizational Planning, Recruiting Services, Employment Screening, Expense Management, Retirement Services and Insurance Services, many of which are offered as a cloud-based software solution and are offered separately or with our other solutions.

The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Insperity and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with our audited Consolidated Financial Statements at and for the year ended December 31, 2017. Our Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2017 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information or footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Our Consolidated Balance Sheet at September 30, 2018 and our Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 and our Consolidated Statement of Stockholders’ Equity for the nine month period ended September 30, 2018, have been prepared by us without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows, have been made. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2018 presentation.

The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for a full year or of future operations.



2.	Accounting Policies

Health Insurance Costs

We provide group health insurance coverage to our WSEEs in our PEO HR Outsourcing solutions through a national network of carriers, including UnitedHealthcare (“United”), UnitedHealthcare of California, Kaiser Permanente, Blue Shield of California, HMSA BlueCross BlueShield of Hawaii, and Tufts, all of which provide fully insured policies or service contracts.

The policy with United provides the majority of our health insurance coverage. As a result of certain contractual terms, we have accounted for this plan since its inception using a partially self-funded insurance accounting model. Accordingly, we record the costs of the United plan, including an estimate of the incurred claims, taxes and administrative fees (collectively the “Plan Costs”) as benefits expense, which is a component of direct costs, in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. The estimated incurred claims are based upon: (1) the level of claims processed during the quarter; (2) estimated completion rates based upon recent claim development patterns under the plan; and (3) the number of participants in the plan, including both active and COBRA enrollees. Each reporting period, changes in the estimated ultimate costs resulting from claim trends, plan design and migration, participant demographics and other factors are incorporated into the benefits costs.



Insperity \| 2018 Third Quarter Form 10-Q		9

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Additionally, since the plan’s inception, under the terms of the contract, United establishes cash funding rates 90 days in advance of the beginning of a reporting quarter. If the Plan Costs for a reporting quarter are greater than the premiums paid and owed to United, a deficit in the plan would be incurred and a liability for the excess costs would be accrued in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. On the other hand, if the Plan Costs for the reporting quarter are less than the premiums paid and owed to United, a surplus in the plan would be incurred and we would record an asset for the excess premiums in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. The terms of the arrangement require us to maintain an accumulated cash surplus in the plan of $9.0 million, which is reported as long-term prepaid insurance. In addition, United requires a deposit equal to approximately one day of claims funding activity, which was $5.1 million as of September 30, 2018, and is reported as a long-term asset. As of September 30, 2018, Plan Costs were less than the net premiums paid and owed to United by $18.9 million. As this amount is in excess of the agreed-upon $9.0 million surplus maintenance level, the $9.9 million difference is included in prepaid health insurance, a current asset, in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. The premiums, including the additional quarterly premiums, owed to United at September 30, 2018 were $28.5 million, which is included in accrued health insurance costs, a current liability in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Our benefits costs incurred in the first nine months of 2018 included a reduction of $1.3 million for changes in estimated run-off related to prior periods. Our benefits costs incurred in the first nine months of 2017 included an increase of $1.0 million for changes in estimated run-off related to prior periods.

Workers’ Compensation Costs

Our workers’ compensation coverage for our WSEEs in our PEO HR Outsourcing solutions has been provided through an arrangement with the Chubb Group of Insurance Companies or its predecessors (the “Chubb Program”) since 2007. The Chubb Program is fully insured in that Chubb has the responsibility to pay all claims incurred under the policy regardless of whether we satisfy our responsibilities. Under the Chubb Program, we have financial responsibility to Chubb for the first $1 million layer of claims per occurrence and, for claims over $1 million, up to a maximum aggregate amount of $5 million per policy year for claims that exceed $1 million. Chubb bears the financial responsibility for all claims in excess of these levels.

Because we bear the financial responsibility for claims up to the levels noted above, such claims, which are the primary component of our workers’ compensation costs, are recorded in the period incurred. Workers’ compensation insurance includes ongoing health care and indemnity coverage whereby claims are paid over numerous years following the date of injury. Accordingly, the accrual of related incurred costs in each reporting period includes estimates, which take into account the ongoing development of claims and therefore requires a significant level of judgment.

We utilize a third-party actuary to estimate our loss development rate, which is primarily based upon the nature of WSEEs job responsibilities, the location of WSEEs, the historical frequency and severity of workers’ compensation claims, and an estimate of future cost trends. Each reporting period, changes in the actuarial assumptions resulting from changes in actual claims experience and other trends are incorporated into our workers’ compensation claims cost estimates. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, we reduced accrued workers’ compensation costs by $13.4 million and $11.0 million, respectively, for changes in estimated losses related to prior reporting periods. Workers’ compensation cost estimates are discounted to present value at a rate based upon the U.S. Treasury rates that correspond with the weighted average estimated claim payout period (the average discount rate utilized in the 2018 period was 2.5% and in the 2017 period was 1.5%) and are accreted over the estimated claim payment period and included as a component of direct costs in our Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The following table provides the activity and balances related to incurred but not paid workers’ compensation claims:



	Nine Months Ended September 30,
(in thousands)	2018			2017

Beginning balance, January 1,	$	207,630		$	183,928
Accrued claims	54,744			52,133
Present value discount	(5,372		)	(3,048		)
Paid claims	(31,645		)	(29,574		)
Ending balance	$	225,357		$	203,439

Current portion of accrued claims	$	42,258		$	41,748
Long-term portion of accrued claims	183,099			161,691
Total accrued claims	$	225,357		$	203,439

The current portion of accrued workers’ compensation costs on our Consolidated Balance Sheets at September 30, 2018 includes $3.5 million of workers’ compensation administrative fees.

As of September 30, 2018 and 2017, the undiscounted accrued workers’ compensation costs were $241.3 million and $215.0 million, respectively.

At the beginning of each policy period, the workers’ compensation insurance carrier establishes monthly funding requirements comprised of premium costs and funds to be set aside for payment of future claims (“claim funds”). The level of claim funds is primarily based upon anticipated WSEE payroll levels and expected workers’ compensation loss rates, as determined by the insurance carrier. Monies funded into the program for incurred claims expected to be paid within one year are recorded as restricted cash, a short-term asset, while the remainder of claim funds are included in deposits – workers’ compensation, a long-term asset in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. During the first nine months of 2018 and 2017, we received $19.4 million and $22.7 million, respectively, for the return of excess claim funds related to the workers’ compensation program, which resulted in a net decrease to deposits - workers’ compensation. As of September 30, 2018, we had restricted cash of $42.3 million and deposits – workers’ compensation of $152.3 million.

Our estimate of incurred claim costs expected to be paid within one year is included in short-term liabilities, while our estimate of incurred claim costs expected to be paid beyond one year is included in long-term liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

On January 1, 2018, we adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) using the modified retrospective approach. Under this method, the guidance is applied only to the most current period presented in the financial statements. ASU No. 2014-09 outlines a single comprehensive revenue recognition model for revenue arising from contracts with customers and superseded most of the previous revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. Under ASU No. 2014-09, an entity recognizes revenue for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration for which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Our revenue recognition policies remained substantially unchanged as a result of adoption ASU No. 2014-09 and we did not have any significant changes in our business processes or systems.

We enter into contracts with our customers for human resources services based on a stated rate and price in the contract. Our contracts generally have a term of 12 months, but are cancellable at any time by either party with 30-days’ notice. Our performance obligations are satisfied as services are rendered each month. The term between invoicing and when our performance obligations are satisfied is not significant. Payment terms are typically due concurrently with the invoicing of our PEO services. We do not have significant financing components or significant payment terms.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Our revenue is generally recognized ratably over the payroll period as WSEEs perform their service at the client worksite. Customers are invoiced concurrently with each periodic payroll of its WSEEs. Revenues that have been recognized but not invoiced are included in unbilled accounts receivable on our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Pursuant to the “practical expedients” provided under ASU No 2014-09, we expense sales commissions when incurred because the terms of our contracts are cancellable by either party with a 30-day notice. These costs are recorded in commissions in our Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Our revenue for our PEO HR Outsourcing solutions by geographic region and for our other products and services offerings are as follows:

In November 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230), Restricted Cash, clarifying the classification and presentation of changes in restricted cash on the statement of cash flows. The amendments in this ASU require that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning period and ending period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. As a result of our adoption of the new guidance, in the first quarter of 2018, our beginning and ending cash balances on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows now include restricted cash and long-term workers compensation deposits and prior period balances were retrospectively adjusted. Restricted cash and long-term workers compensation deposits are cash deposits funded to secure future claim payments under our workers compensation program and are considered restricted under Topic 230.

In March 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-05, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Amendments to SEC Paragraph Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (SEC Update). ASU 2018-05 adds the SEC guidance released on December 22, 2017 regarding the U.S. tax reform to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. At September 30, 2018, we have not made a material adjustment to the provisional tax provision recorded under ASU 2018-05 at December 31, 2017. In addition, we have considered the impact of the statutory changes from the Act in our estimated tax rate for 2018, including reasonable estimates of those provisions effective for the 2018 tax year.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases. The new standard requires recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities for leases previously classified as operating leases. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. We are currently reviewing the guidance and assessing the impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Our cash and overnight holdings fluctuate based on the timing of clients’ payroll processing cycles. Included in the cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities at September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 are $181.3 million and $271.5 million, respectively, of funds associated with federal and state income tax withholdings, employment taxes and other payroll deductions, as well as $18.0 million and $23.6 million in client prepayments, respectively.



4.	Fair Value Measurements

We account for our financial assets in accordance with Accounting Standard Codification 820, Fair Value Measurement. This standard defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The fair value measurement disclosures are grouped into three levels based on valuation factors:


•	Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets using identical assets


•	Level 2 - significant other observable inputs, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other observable inputs


•	Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs

Fair Value of Instruments Measured and Recognized at Fair Value

The following table summarizes the levels of fair value measurements of our financial assets:

Fair Value of Other Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, deposits and accounts payable approximate their fair values due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.

As of September 30, 2018, the carrying value of borrowings under our revolving credit facility approximates fair value and was classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. Please read Note 5, “Long-Term Debt,” for additional information.



5.	Long-Term Debt

We have a revolving credit facility (the “Facility”) with borrowing capacity up to $350 million. The Facility may be increased to $400 million based on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the agreement relating to the Facility (the “Credit Agreement”). The Facility is available for working capital and general corporate purposes, including acquisitions, stock repurchases and issuances of letters of credit. Our obligations under the Facility are secured by 65% of the stock of our captive insurance subsidiary and are guaranteed by all of our domestic subsidiaries. At September 30, 2018, our outstanding balance on the Facility was $104.4 million, and we had an outstanding $1.0 million letter of credit issued under the Facility, providing us with an available borrowing capacity of $244.6 million.

The Facility matures on February 6, 2023. Borrowings under the Facility bear interest at an alternate base rate or LIBOR, at our option, plus an applicable margin. Depending on our leverage ratio, the applicable margin varies (1) in the case of LIBOR loans, from 1.50% to 2.25% and (2) in the case of alternate base rate loans, from 0.00% to 0.50%. The alternate base rate is the highest of (1) the prime rate most recently published in The Wall Street Journal, (2) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% and (3) the 30-day LIBOR rate plus 2.00%. We also pay an unused commitment fee on the average daily unused portion of the Facility at a rate of 0.25%. The interest rate at September 30, 2018 was 3.76%. Interest expense and unused commitment fees are recorded in other income (expense).

The Facility contains both affirmative and negative covenants that we believe are customary for arrangements of this nature. Covenants include, but are not limited to, limitations on our ability to incur additional indebtedness, sell

material assets, retire, redeem or otherwise reacquire our capital stock, acquire the capital stock or assets of another business, make investments and pay dividends. In addition, the Credit Agreement requires us to comply with financial covenants limiting our total funded debt, minimum interest coverage ratio and maximum leverage ratio. We were in compliance with all financial covenants under the Credit Agreement at September 30, 2018.



6.	Stockholders' Equity

During the first nine months of 2018, we repurchased or withheld an aggregate of 211,972 shares of our common stock, as described below.

Two-for-One Stock Split

On December 18, 2017, we effected a two-for-one stock split in the form 100% stock dividend.

Repurchase Program

Our Board of Directors (the “Board”) has authorized a program to repurchase shares of our outstanding common stock (“Repurchase Program”). The purchases are to be made from time to time in the open market or directly from stockholders at prevailing market prices based on market conditions and other factors. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, 80,000 shares were repurchased under the Repurchase Program. As of September 30, 2018, we were authorized to repurchase an additional 2,597,564 shares under the Repurchase Program.

Withheld Shares

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we withheld 131,972 shares to satisfy tax withholding obligations for the vesting of long-term incentive and restricted stock awards.

Dividends

The Board declared quarterly dividends as follows:



(amounts per share)	2018		2017

First quarter	$	0.20	$	0.125
Second quarter	0.20		0.150
Third quarter	0.20		0.150

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, we paid dividends totaling $25.2 million and $17.8 million, respectively.



7.	Net Income Per Share

We utilize the two-class method to compute net income per share. The two-class method allocates a portion of net income to participating securities, which includes unvested awards of share-based payments with non-forfeitable rights to receive dividends. Net income allocated to unvested share-based payments is excluded from net income allocated to common shares. Any undistributed losses resulting from dividends exceeding net income are not allocated to participating securities. Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income allocated to common shares by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share is computed by dividing net income allocated to common shares by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, plus the dilutive effect of outstanding stock options.

Worksite Employee 401(k) Retirement Plan Class Action Litigation

In December 2015, a class action lawsuit was filed against us and the third-party discretionary trustee of the Insperity 401(k) retirement plan that is available to eligible worksite employees (the “Plan”) in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia, Atlanta Division, on behalf of Plan participants. The suit generally alleges that Insperity’s third-party discretionary trustee of the Plan and Insperity breached their fiduciary duties to plan participants by selecting an Insperity subsidiary to serve as the recordkeeper for the Plan, by causing participants in the Plan to pay excessive recordkeeping fees to the Insperity subsidiary, by failing to monitor other fiduciaries, and by making imprudent investment choices. The parties filed a stipulation concerning class certification that defined the class as “all participants and beneficiaries of the Insperity 401(k) Plan from December 22, 2009 through September 30, 2017.” In November 2017, the court approved the class certification stipulation and denied the plaintiffs’ request for a jury trial. A date for the bench trial has not yet been set. Discovery is complete. On June 8, 2018, we filed a motion for summary judgment seeking dismissal of all claims. Briefing on that motion was completed in September 2018, which motion is now awaiting a ruling by the court. We believe we have meritorious defenses, and we intend to vigorously defend this litigation. As a result of uncertainty regarding the outcome of this matter, no provision has been made in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Other Litigation

We are a defendant in various other lawsuits and claims arising in the normal course of business. Management believes it has valid defenses in these cases and is defending them vigorously. While the results of litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes the final outcome of such litigation will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations.

Results of Operations

Key Operating Metrics

We monitor certain key metrics to measure our performance, including:


•	WSEE


•	Adjusted EBITDA


•	Adjusted EPS

Our growth in the number of WSEEs paid is affected by three primary sources: new client sales, client retention and the net change in existing clients through WSEE new hires and layoffs.


•	During the third quarter of 2018 (“Q3 2018”), the number of WSEEs paid from new client sales increased 57.5% over the third quarter of 2017 (“Q3 2017”) on a 16.5% increase in the average number of Business Performance Advisors (“BPAs”). In addition, the net change in existing clients and client retention improved as compared to Q3 2017.


•	During the first nine months of 2018 (“YTD 2018”), the number of WSEEs paid from new client sales and the net change in existing clients improved as compared to the first nine months of 2017 (“YTD 2017”), while client retention remained consistent with YTD 2017.

Revenues

Our PEO HR Outsourcing solutions revenues are primarily derived from our gross billings, which are based on (1) the payroll cost of our WSEEs and (2) a markup computed as a percentage of the payroll cost.

Our revenues are primarily dependent on the number of clients enrolled, the resulting number of WSEEs paid each period and the number of WSEEs enrolled in our benefit plans. Because our total markup is computed as a percentage of payroll cost, certain revenues are also affected by the payroll cost of WSEEs, which may fluctuate based on the composition of the WSEE base, inflationary effects on wage levels and differences in the local economies of our markets.

Gross Profit

In determining the pricing of the markup component of our gross billings, we take into consideration our estimates of the costs directly associated with our WSEEs, including payroll taxes, benefits and workers’ compensation costs, plus an acceptable gross profit margin. As a result, our operating results are significantly impacted by our ability to accurately estimate, control and manage our direct costs relative to the revenues derived from the markup component of our gross billings.

Our gross profit per WSEE is primarily determined by our ability to accurately estimate and control direct costs and our ability to incorporate changes in these costs into the gross billings charged to PEO HR Outsourcing solutions

Gross profit for Q3 2018 increased 18.6% to $166.1 million compared to $140.0 million in Q3 2017. Gross profit per WSEE per month for Q3 2018 increased $7 to $257 compared to $250 in Q3 2017.

Our pricing objectives attempt to achieve a level of revenue per WSEE that matches or exceeds changes in primary direct costs and operating expenses. Our revenues and direct costs per WSEE per month increased $13 and $6, respectively, in Q3 2018. The net increase in the change in cost estimates for benefits and workers compensation between Q3 2018 and Q3 2017 totaled $4.8 million as discussed below. The primary direct cost components changed as follows:

Benefits costs


•	The cost of group health insurance and related employee benefits decreased $2 per WSEE per month, but increased 1.7% on a cost per covered employee basis.


•	The percentage of WSEEs covered under our health insurance plans was 66.7% in Q3 2018 compared to 68.1% in Q3 2017.


•	Changes in estimated claims run-off related to prior periods was a reduction of $0.7 million, or $1 per WSEE per month, in Q3 2018 compared to a reduction of $5.0 million, or $9 per WSEE per month, in Q3 2017.

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Please read Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, “Accounting Policies – Health Insurance Costs,” for a discussion of our accounting for health insurance costs.

Workers’ compensation costs

Our continued discipline around our client selection, safety and claims management contributed to the small increase in our cost per WSEE and, as a result, has allowed for claims within our policy periods to be closed out at amounts below our original cost estimates.


•	Workers’ compensation costs increased 20.9%, or $2 on a per WSEE per month basis, in Q3 2018 compared to Q3 2017, on a 17.4% increase in non-bonus payroll costs.


•	As a percentage of non-bonus payroll cost, workers’ compensation costs in Q3 2018 were 0.55% compared to 0.53% in Q3 2017.


•	As a result of closing out claims at lower than expected costs, we recorded a reduction in workers’ compensation costs of $2.4 million, or 0.05% of non-bonus payroll costs, in Q3 2018 compared to a reduction of $2.9 million, or 0.08% of non-bonus payroll costs, in Q3 2017.

Please read Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, “Accounting Policies – Workers’ Compensation Costs,” for a discussion of our accounting for workers’ compensation costs.

Payroll tax costs


•	Payroll taxes increased 16.8%, or $6 per WSEE per month, primarily due to a 19.1% increase in payroll costs.


•	Payroll taxes as a percentage of payroll costs were 6.2% in Q3 2018 compared to 6.3% in Q3 2017.

First Nine Months 2018 Compared to First Nine Months 2017

Gross profit for YTD 2018 increased 21.0% to $520.3 million compared to $429.9 million in YTD 2017. Gross profit per WSEE per month for YTD 2018 increased $17 to $282 compared to $265 in YTD 2017. Our revenues and direct costs per WSEE per month increased $29 and $12, respectively, in YTD 2018.

The net decrease in the change in cost estimates for benefits and workers compensation between YTD 2018 and YTD 2017 totaled $4.7 million as discussed below. The primary direct cost components changed as follows:

Benefits costs


•	The cost of group health insurance and related employee benefits increased $2 per WSEE per month, or 1.1% on a cost per covered employee basis.

•	Commissions — Commissions expense consists primarily of channel referral fees and amounts paid to sales managers and BPAs. Commissions are based on new accounts sold and a percentage of revenue generated by such personnel.


•	Advertising — Advertising expense primarily consists of media advertising and other business promotions in our current and anticipated sales markets.


•	General and administrative expenses — Our general and administrative expenses primarily include:


•	rent expenses related to our service centers and sales offices


•	outside professional service fees related to legal, consulting and accounting services


•	administrative costs, such as postage, printing and supplies


•	employee travel and training expenses


•	technology and facility repairs and maintenance costs


•	Depreciation and amortization — Depreciation and amortization expense is primarily a function of our capital investments in corporate facilities, service centers, sales offices, technology infrastructure and expenses associated with our acquisitions.

•	Salaries of corporate and sales staff for Q3 2018 increased 8.2% to $70.6 million, but decreased $7 on a per WSEE per month basis, compared to Q3 2017. This increase was primarily due to an 11.1% increase in corporate headcount, which includes a 16.5% increase in the number of BPAs.


•	Stock based compensation expense for Q3 2018 decreased 12.4% to $5.8 million, or $3 per WSEE per month compared to Q3 2017. The decrease was primarily due to performance adjustments made in 2017 related to our long-term incentive awards.


•	Commissions expense for Q3 2018 increased 20.1% to $6.8 million, or $1 per WSEE per month, compared to Q3 2017.

•

General and administrative expenses for Q3 2018 increased 3.2% to $25.3 million, but decreased $5 on a per WSEE per month basis, compared to Q3 2017.

•

Salaries of corporate and sales staff for YTD 2018 increased 19.7% to $226.5 million, or $7 per WSEE per month, compared to YTD 2017. This increase was primarily due to a $9.3 million charge related to a one-time tax reform bonus paid to corporate employees, a 10.8% increase in corporate headcount, which includes a 17.6% increase in the number of BPAs, and additional incentive compensation expense as a result of strong operating results.


•	Stock-based compensation for YTD 2018 decreased 10.6% to $14.7 million, or $2 per WSEE per month, compared to YTD 2017. This decrease was primarily due to the acceleration of restricted stock awards and associated expense in the fourth quarter of 2017 that were originally scheduled to vest in the first quarter of 2018.


•	Commissions expense for YTD 2018 increased 25.6% to $19.9 million, or $1 per WSEE per month, compared to YTD 2017. The increase was primarily due to commissions associated with growth in our PEO HR Outsourcing solutions, including an increase in the amount of sales channel referral fees paid during 2018.

•

General and administrative expenses for YTD 2018 increased 9.6% to $82.6 million, but decreased $2 on a per WSEE per month basis, compared to YTD 2017.

As a result of U.S. tax reform enacted in late 2017, the U.S. statutory rate decreased from 35% in 2017 to 21% in 2018.

For the three months ended September 30, 2018, our provision for income taxes differed from the U.S. statutory rate of 21% primarily due to state income taxes and non-deductible expenses.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, our provision for income taxes differed from the U.S. statutory rate primarily due to state income taxes and non-deductible expenses and vesting of long-term incentive stock awards. During the first nine months of 2018 and 2017, we recognized an income tax benefit of $3.7 million and $3.3 million, respectively, related to the vesting of long-term incentive and restricted stock awards.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures used to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures as provided in the tables below.



Non-GAAP Measure	Definition	Benefit of Non-GAAP Measure
Non-bonus payroll cost	Non-bonus payroll cost is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes the impact of bonus payrolls paid to our WSEEs. Bonus payroll cost varies from period to period, but has no direct impact to our ultimate workers’ compensation costs under the current program.	Our management refers to non-bonus payroll cost in analyzing, reporting and forecasting our workers’ compensation costs. We include these non-GAAP financial measures because we believe they are useful to investors in allowing for greater transparency related to the costs incurred under our current workers’ compensation program.
Adjusted cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities	Excludes funds associated with: • federal and state income tax withholdings, • employment taxes, • other payroll deductions, and • client prepayments.	We believe that the exclusion of the identified items helps us reflect the fundamentals of our underlying business model and analyze results against our expectations, against prior period, and to plan for future periods by focusing on our underlying operations. We believe that the adjusted results provide relevant and useful information for investors because they allow investors to view performance in a manner similar to the method used by management and improves their ability to understand and assess our operating performance.

Adjusted operating expense	Represents operating expenses excluding the impact of the following: • costs associated with a one-time tax reform bonus paid to corporate employees and • charitable donations to Hurricane Harvey relief efforts.

EBITDA	Represents net income computed in accordance with GAAP, plus: • interest expense, • income tax expense, and • depreciation and amortization expense.

Adjusted EBITDA	Represents EBITDA plus: • non-cash stock based compensation, • costs associated with a one-time tax reform bonus paid to corporate employees, and • charitable donations to Hurricane Harvey relief efforts.

Adjusted Net Income	Represents net income computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding: • non-cash stock based compensation, • costs associated with a one-time tax reform bonus paid to corporate employees, and • charitable donations to Hurricane Harvey relief efforts.

Adjusted EPS	Represents diluted net income per share computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding: • non-cash stock based compensation, • costs associated with a one-time tax reform bonus paid to corporate employees, and • charitable donations to Hurricane Harvey relief efforts.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We periodically evaluate our liquidity requirements, capital needs and availability of resources in view of, among other things, our expansion plans, stock repurchase, potential acquisitions, debt service requirements and other operating cash needs. To meet short-term liquidity requirements, which are primarily the payment of direct costs and operating expenses, we rely primarily on cash from operations. Longer-term projects, large stock repurchases or significant acquisitions may be financed with debt or equity. We have in the past sought, and may in the future seek, to raise additional capital or take other steps to increase or manage our liquidity and capital resources. We had $365.9 million in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities at September 30, 2018, of which approximately $181 million was payable in early October 2018 for withheld federal and state income taxes, employment taxes and other payroll deductions, and approximately $18 million were client prepayments that were payable in October 2018. At September 30, 2018, we had working capital of $148.9 million compared to $52.5 million at December 31, 2017. We currently believe that our cash on hand, marketable securities, cash flows from operations and availability under our revolving credit facility will be adequate to meet our liquidity requirements for the remainder of 2018. We intend to rely on these same sources, as well as public and private debt or equity financing, to meet our longer-term liquidity and capital needs.

We have a $350 million revolving credit facility (“Facility”) with a syndicate of financial institutions. The Facility is available for working capital and general corporate purposes, including acquisitions and stock repurchases. As of September 30, 2018, we had an outstanding letter of credit and borrowings totaling $105.4 million under the Facility. Please read Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, “Long-Term Debt,” for additional information.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities in the first nine months of 2018 was $70.3 million. Our primary source of cash from operations is the comprehensive service fee and payroll funding we collect from our clients. Our cash and cash equivalents, and thus our reported cash flows from operating activities, are significantly impacted by various external and internal factors, which are reflected in part by the changes in our balance sheet accounts. These include the following:

•

Timing of client payments / payroll levels – We typically collect our comprehensive service fee, along with the client’s payroll funding, from clients at least one day prior to the payment of WSEE payrolls and associated payroll taxes. Therefore, the last business day of a reporting period has a substantial impact on our reporting of operating cash flows. For example, many WSEEs are paid on Fridays; therefore, operating cash flows decrease in the reporting periods that end on a Friday or a Monday. In the period ended September 30, 2018,



Insperity \| 2018 Third Quarter Form 10-Q		31

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

the last business day of the reporting period was a Friday, client prepayments were $18.0 million and accrued worksite employee payroll was $340.1 million. In the period ended September 30, 2017, the last business day of the reporting period was also a Friday, client prepayments were $14.2 million and accrued worksite employee payroll was $256.7 million.


•	Workers’ compensation plan funding – During YTD 2018 and YTD 2017, we received $19.4 million and $22.7 million, respectively, for the return of excess claim funds related to the workers’ compensation program, which resulted in an increase in working capital.

•

Medical plan funding – Our health care contract with United establishes participant cash funding rates 90 days in advance of the beginning of a reporting quarter. Therefore, changes in the participation level of the United plan have a direct impact on our operating cash flows. In addition, changes to the funding rates, which are solely determined by United based primarily upon recent claim history and anticipated cost trends, also have a significant impact on our operating cash flows. As of September 30, 2018, premiums owed and cash funded to United have exceeded the costs of the United plan, resulting in an $18.9 million surplus, $9.9 million of which is reflected as a current asset, and $9.0 million of which is reflected as a long-term asset on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. The premiums, including an additional quarterly premium, owed to United at September 30, 2018, were $28.5 million, which is included in accrued health insurance costs, a current liability, on our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

•

Operating results – Our net income has a significant impact on our operating cash flows. Our adjusted net income increased 60.9% to $128.7 million in the first nine months ended September 30, 2018, compared to $80.0 million in the first nine months ended September 30, 2017, due to higher gross profit. Please read “Results of Operations – First Nine Months Ended September 30, 2018 Compared to First Nine Months Ended September 30, 2017.”

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

Net cash flows used in investing activities were $57.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, primarily due to marketable securities purchases, net of maturities and dispositions of $35.8 million and property and equipment purchases of $21.5 million.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Net cash flows used in financing activities were $39.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. We repurchased $16.2 million in stock and paid $25.2 million in dividends during the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK AND CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are primarily exposed to market risks from fluctuations in interest rates and the effects of those fluctuations on the market values of our cash equivalent short-term investments, our available-for-sale marketable securities and our borrowings under our Facility, which bears interest at a variable market rate. As of September 30, 2018, we had outstanding letters of credit and borrowings totaling $105.4 million under the Facility. Please read Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, “Long-Term Debt,” for additional information.

The cash equivalent short-term investments consist primarily of overnight investments, which are not significantly exposed to interest rate risk, except to the extent that changes in interest rates will ultimately affect the amount of interest income earned on these investments. Our available-for-sale marketable securities are subject to interest rate risk because these securities generally include a fixed interest rate. As a result, the market values of these securities are affected by changes in prevailing interest rates.

We attempt to limit our exposure to interest rate risk primarily through diversification and low investment turnover. Our investment policy is designed to maximize after-tax interest income while preserving our principal investment. As a result, our marketable securities consist of tax-exempt short term and intermediate term debt securities, which are primarily pre-funded municipal bonds that are secured by escrow funds containing U.S. Government Securities.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

In accordance with Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2018.

There has been no change in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended September 30, 2018 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

Please read Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, “Commitments and Contingencies,” which is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Forward-Looking Statements

The statements contained herein that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws (Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Exchange Act). You can identify such forward-looking statements by the words “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “projects,” “believes,” “estimates,” “likely,” “possibly,” “probably,” “goal,” “opportunity,” “objective,” “target,” “assume,” “outlook,” “guidance,” “predicts,” “appears,” “indicator” and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties. In the normal course of business, Insperity, Inc., in an effort to help keep our stockholders and the public informed about our operations, may from time to time issue such forward-looking statements, either orally or in writing. Generally, these statements relate to business plans or strategies, projected or anticipated benefits or other consequences of such plans or strategies, or projections involving anticipated revenues, earnings, unit growth, profit per worksite employee, pricing, operating expenses or other aspects of operating results. We base the forward-looking statements on our expectations, estimates and projections at the time such statements are made. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties that we cannot predict. In addition, we have based many of these forward-looking statements on assumptions about future events that may prove to be inaccurate. Therefore, the actual results of the future events described in such forward-looking statements could differ materially from those stated in such forward-looking statements. Among the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially are:


•	adverse economic conditions;


•	regulatory and tax developments and possible adverse application of various federal, state and local regulations;


•	the ability to secure competitive replacement contracts for health insurance and workers’ compensation insurance at expiration of current contracts;


•	cancellation of client contracts on short notice, or the inability to renew client contracts or attract new clients;


•	vulnerability to regional economic factors because of our geographic market concentration;


•	increases in health insurance costs and workers’ compensation rates and underlying claims trends, health care reform, financial solvency of workers’ compensation carriers, other insurers or financial institutions, state unemployment tax rates, liabilities for employee and client actions or payroll-related claims;


•	failure to manage growth of our operations and the effectiveness of our sales and marketing efforts;


•	the impact of the competitive environment and other developments in the human resources services industry, including the PEO industry, on our growth and/or profitability;


•	our liability for worksite employee payroll, payroll taxes and benefits costs;


•	our liability for disclosure of sensitive or private information;


•	our ability to integrate or realize expected returns on our acquisitions;


•	failure of our information technology systems;


•	an adverse final judgment or settlement of claims against Insperity; and


•	disruptions to our business resulting from the actions of certain stockholders.

OTHER INFORMATION

These factors are discussed in further detail in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 under “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in Part I and “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in Part II, and elsewhere in this report. Any of these factors, or a combination of such factors, could materially affect the results of our operations and whether forward-looking statements we make ultimately prove to be accurate.

Except to the extent otherwise required by federal securities law, we do not undertake any obligation to update our forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date they are made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
