SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2023 (this "Quarterly Report") contains certain information that may constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. While we have specifically identified certain information as being forward-looking in the context of its presentation, we caution you that all statements contained in this report that are not clearly historical in nature, including statements regarding anticipated financial performance, management's plans and objectives for future operations, business prospects, market conditions, and other matters are forward-looking. Forward-looking statements are contained principally in the sections of this report entitled "Risk Factors," and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations." Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, any time we use the words "expects," "intends," "will," "anticipates," "believes," "confident," "continue," "propose," "seeks," "could," "may," "should," "estimates," "forecasts," "might," "goals," "objectives," "targets," "planned," "projects," and similar expressions, we intend to clearly express that the information deals with possible future events and is forward-looking in nature. However, the absence of these words or similar expressions does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking.

Forward-looking information involves risks, uncertainties, and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in, or reasonably inferred from, such statements, and the risks and uncertainties disclosed or referenced under the heading "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. Therefore, caution should be taken not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements. Much of the information in this report that looks toward future performance of the company is based on various factors and important assumptions about future events that may or may not actually occur. As a result, our operations and financial results in the future could differ materially and substantially from those we have discussed in the forward-looking statements included in this Quarterly Report. We assume no obligation (and specifically disclaim any such obligation) to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required by law.

 NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1. Company Overview, Basis of Presentation, and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation

Rackspace Technology, Inc. ("Rackspace Technology") is a Delaware corporation controlled by investment funds affiliated with Apollo Global Management, Inc. and its subsidiaries ("Apollo"). Rackspace Technology was formed on July 21, 2016 but had no assets, liabilities or operating results until November 3, 2016 when Rackspace Hosting, Inc. (now named Rackspace Technology Global, Inc., or "Rackspace Technology Global"), a global provider of modern information technology-as-a-service, was acquired by Inception Parent, Inc., a wholly-owned entity indirectly owned by Rackspace Technology (the "Rackspace Acquisition").

Rackspace Technology Global commenced operations in 1998 as a limited partnership, and was incorporated in Delaware in March 2000. Rackspace Technology serves as the holding company for Rackspace Technology Global and does not engage in any material business or operations other than those related to its indirect ownership of the capital stock of Rackspace Technology Global and its subsidiaries or business or operations otherwise customarily undertaken by a holding company.

For ease of reference, the terms "we," "our company," "the company," "us," or "our" as used in this report refer to Rackspace Technology and its consolidated subsidiaries.

Effective on January 1, 2023, we reorganized around a two-business unit operating model, Public Cloud and Private Cloud. This two-business unit operating model ensures increased focus, delivery, and service quality for our customers. Beginning in 2023, we changed our segment reporting to reflect this reorganization under two reportable segments: Public Cloud and Private Cloud. See Note 14, "Segment Reporting" for more information.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Rackspace Technology, Inc. and our wholly-owned subsidiaries. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Unaudited Interim Financial Information

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2023, and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2023, have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for interim financial information. Accordingly, certain financial information and disclosures required for financial statements prepared under GAAP have been omitted in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") disclosure rules and regulations that permit reduced disclosure for interim periods. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 as filed with the SEC on March 16, 2023 ("Annual Report"). The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of our financial position as of September 30, 2023, our results of operations and stockholders' equity for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2023, and our cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2023.

The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023, or for any other interim period, or for any other future year.

Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to the allowance for credit losses, useful lives of property, equipment and software, software capitalization, incremental borrowing rates for lease liability measurement, fair values of intangible assets and reporting units, useful lives of intangible assets, share-based compensation, contingencies, and income taxes, among others. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from our estimates.

Liquidity Overview

We are a highly leveraged company. As of September 30, 2023, we had $3,092.5 million aggregate principal amount outstanding under the first lien term loan facility (the "Term Loan Facility"), 5.375% Senior Notes due 2028 (the "5.375% Senior Notes"), and 3.50% Senior Secured Notes due 2028 (the "3.50% Senior Secured Notes"). We primarily finance our operations and capital expenditures with internally-generated cash from operations and hardware leases, and if necessary, borrowings under a revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Credit Facility"). As of September 30, 2023, the Revolving Credit Facility provided for up to $375.0 million of borrowings, none of which was drawn and outstanding as of September 30, 2023. Our primary uses of cash are working capital requirements, debt service requirements and capital expenditures. Based on our current level of operations and available cash and cash equivalents of $277.8 million as of September 30, 2023, we believe our sources will provide sufficient liquidity over at least the next twelve months. We cannot provide assurance, however, that our business will generate sufficient cash flows from operations or that future borrowings will be available to us under the Revolving Credit Facility or from other sources in an amount sufficient to enable us to pay our indebtedness or to fund our other liquidity needs. Our ability to do so depends on prevailing economic conditions and other factors, many of which are beyond our control.

Significant Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our Annual Report includes an additional discussion of the significant accounting policies and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. There were no material changes to our significant accounting policies and estimates during the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Goodwill, Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets and Long-Lived Assets

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identifiable net assets of businesses acquired. Our indefinite-lived intangible asset consists of our Rackspace trade name, which was recorded at fair value on our balance sheet at the date of the Rackspace Acquisition. Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are not amortized but are subject to impairment testing on an annual basis as of October 1st or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate a potential impairment. These events or circumstances could include a significant change in the business climate, regulatory environment, established business plans, operating performance indicators or competition. Potential impairment indicators may also include, but are not limited to, (i) significant changes to estimates and assumptions used in the most recent annual or interim impairment testing, (ii) downward revisions to internal forecasts, and the magnitude thereof, (iii) declines in our market capitalization below our book value, and the magnitude and duration of those declines, (iv) a reorganization resulting in a change to our operating segments, and (v) other macroeconomic factors, such as increases in interest rates that may affect the weighted average cost of capital, volatility in the equity and debt markets, or fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates that may negatively impact our reported results of operations.

Table of Contents
On January 1, 2023, as a result of the reorganization of our business around a two-business unit operating model, we changed our reportable segments to Private Cloud and Public Cloud. Our prior Multicloud Services segment has been separated into its public and private cloud components and the offerings previously reported in our Apps & Cross Platform segment have been reassigned to either the Public Cloud or Private Cloud segment based on the nature of the offering. Our prior OpenStack Public Cloud segment is included in Private Cloud. As a result of the segment change, we allocated the goodwill of our former Multicloud Services and Apps & Cross Platform reporting units to the Public Cloud and Private Cloud reporting units based on their relative fair value. OpenStack Public Cloud remains a separate reporting unit for goodwill purposes. Due to the change in our segment reporting and the allocation of goodwill, we completed a quantitative goodwill impairment analysis both prior and subsequent to the aforementioned change. The results of the quantitative goodwill impairment analysis performed as of December 31, 2022 prior to the change indicated an impairment within our former Apps & Cross Platform reporting unit, and we recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $129.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2022 as described in our Annual Report. We reassigned goodwill to the updated reporting units using a relative fair value approach. The results of the quantitative goodwill impairment analysis performed as of January 1, 2023 subsequent to the reorganization indicated an impairment within our Private Cloud reporting unit, and we recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $270.8 million in the first quarter of 2023.

During the first quarter of 2023, we experienced a sustained decline in our stock price resulting in our market capitalization being less than the carrying value of our combined reporting units. As of March 31, 2023, we assessed several events and circumstances that could affect the significant inputs used to determine the fair value of our reporting units, including the significance of the amount, if any, of excess carrying value over fair value, consistency of operating margins and cash flows, budgeted-to-actual performance for the first three months of the year, overall change in economic climate, changes in the industry and competitive environment, and earnings quality and sustainability. After considering all available evidence in our evaluation of goodwill impairment indicators, we determined it appropriate to perform an interim quantitative assessment of our reporting units as of March 31, 2023.

During the third quarter of 2023, we experienced a sustained decline in our stock price resulting in our market capitalization being less than the carrying value of our combined reporting units. As of September 30, 2023, we assessed several events and circumstances that could affect the significant inputs used to determine the fair value of our reporting units, including the significance of the amount, if any, of excess carrying value over fair value, consistency of operating margins and cash flows, budgeted-to-actual performance for the first nine months of the year, overall change in economic climate, changes in the industry and competitive environment, and earnings quality and sustainability. After considering all available evidence in our evaluation of goodwill impairment indicators, we determined it appropriate to perform an interim quantitative assessment of our reporting units as of September 30, 2023.

Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level. A reporting unit is an operating segment or one level below an operating segment (referred to as a component). We allocate goodwill to reporting units based on the reporting unit expected to benefit from the business combination. Assets and liabilities are assigned to each of our reporting units if they are employed by a reporting unit and are considered in the determination of the reporting unit fair value. Certain assets and liabilities are shared by multiple reporting units, and thus, are allocated to each reporting unit based on the relative size of a reporting unit, primarily based on revenue. We have two reporting units with goodwill: Public Cloud and Private Cloud. Goodwill allocated to our third reporting unit, OpenStack Public Cloud, was fully impaired during the fourth quarter of 2021.

For the interim quantitative goodwill impairment analyses performed, we compare the fair values of each of our reporting units to their respective carrying amounts. The fair values of each of our reporting units were derived using the income approach, specifically the discounted cash flow method. The discounted cash flow models reflect our assumptions regarding revenue growth rates, projected gross profit margins, risk-adjusted discount rates, terminal period growth rates, economic and market trends and other expectations about the anticipated operating results of our reporting units. As part of the goodwill impairment test, we also consider our market capitalization in assessing the reasonableness of the combined fair values estimated for our reporting units, including OpenStack Public Cloud. Goodwill impairment is measured as the excess of a reporting unit's carrying amount over its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill for that reporting unit.

The results of our quantitative goodwill impairment analyses as of January 1, 2023 and March 31, 2023 indicated an impairment of goodwill within our Private Cloud reporting unit, and we recorded non-cash impairment charges of $270.8 million and $272.3 million, respectively, within "Impairment of goodwill" in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss in the first quarter of 2023.

Table of Contents
The results of our quantitative goodwill impairment analysis as of September 30, 2023 indicated an impairment of goodwill within our Private Cloud reporting unit, and we recorded non-cash impairment charges of $165.7 million, within "Impairment of goodwill" in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss in the third quarter of 2023.

During the third quarter of 2022, we experienced a sustained decline in our stock price resulting in our market capitalization being less than the carrying value of our combined reporting units. As of September 1, 2022, we assessed several events and circumstances that could affect the significant inputs used to determine the fair value of our reporting units, including the significance of the amount of excess carrying value over fair value, consistency of operating margins and cash flows, budgeted-to-actual performance from prior year, overall change in economic climate, changes in the industry and competitive environment, and earnings quality and sustainability. In addition, as of September 1, 2022, we lowered our projected operating results primarily due to product mix shifts and market concerns related to inflation, supply chain disruption issues and other macroeconomic factors. As such, as of September 1, 2022, we determined it appropriate to perform an interim quantitative assessment of our reporting units, which indicated an impairment of goodwill within the former Multicloud Services reporting unit, and we recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $405.2 million within "Impairment of goodwill" in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

See Note 6, "Goodwill and Intangible Assets" for more information.

Our indefinite-lived intangible asset is tested for impairment at the consolidated level. In evaluating the recoverability of the Rackspace trade name, we compare the fair value of the asset to its carrying amount to determine potential impairment. Our estimate of the fair value of the Rackspace trade name is derived using the income approach, specifically the relief-from-royalty method.

We performed a quantitative assessment of our indefinite-lived intangible asset prior to testing our goodwill for impairment as of January 1, 2023 and March 31, 2023 which did not indicate any impairment of the Rackspace trade name.

As of September 30, 2023, prior to performing the goodwill impairment analysis, due to the factors discussed in the goodwill analysis above, we performed a quantitative assessment of our indefinite-lived intangible asset utilizing a relief from royalty method. The quantitative assessment performed as of September 30, 2023 indicated the estimated fair value of the Rackspace trade name was less than its carrying value. As a result, we recorded a $57.0 million non-cash impairment charge which is included in "Impairment of assets, net" in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023.

As of September 1, 2022, prior to performing the goodwill impairment analysis, we performed a quantitative assessment of our indefinite-lived intangible asset utilizing a relief from royalty method and determined the estimated fair value of the Rackspace trade name was less than its carrying value. As a result, we recorded a $21.0 million non-cash impairment charge which is included in "Impairment of assets, net" in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

The fair value determination of our reporting units and our indefinite-lived intangible asset is judgmental in nature and requires the use of significant estimates and assumptions that are sensitive to changes. Assumptions include estimation of the royalty rate, estimation of future revenue and projected margins, which are dependent on internal cash flow forecasts, estimation of the terminal growth rates and capital spending, and determination of discount rates. As a result, there can be no assurance that the estimates and assumptions made for purposes of the quantitative goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible impairment tests will prove to be an accurate prediction of future results. Examples of events or circumstances that could reasonably be expected to negatively affect the underlying key assumptions and ultimately impact the estimated fair value of our reporting units may include such items as: (i) volatility in the equity and debt markets or other macroeconomic factors, (ii) an increase in the weighted-average cost of capital due to further increases in interest rates, (iii) decrease in future cash flows due to lower than expected sales, or (iv) fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates that may negatively impact our reported results of operations. Accordingly, if our current cash flow assumptions are not realized, we experience further sustained declines in our stock price or market capitalization, or increases in costs of capital, it is possible that an additional impairment charge may be recorded in the future, which could be material.

Long-lived assets, including operating and finance lease assets, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets is measured at the asset group level. If the carrying amount of an asset group exceeds its estimated undiscounted future cash flows, then an impairment charge is recognized in the amount that an asset group's carrying amount exceeds its fair value.

Table of Contents

In conjunction with the goodwill impairment analyses as of January 1, 2023, March 31, 2023, and September 30, 2023, we performed recoverability tests of our long-lived assets, including finite-lived intangible assets, by comparing the net book value of our long-lived assets or asset groups, to the future undiscounted net cash flows attributable to such assets, which did not result in any impairment charges.

As of September 1, 2022, prior to performing the goodwill impairment analysis, we performed a recoverability test of our long-lived assets, including finite-lived intangible assets. Based on the results of the recoverability test, we determined that, as of September 1, 2022, the fair value of the OpenStack Public Cloud asset group’s underlying assets was less than the carrying value. Fair values of the OpenStack Public Cloud long-lived assets were determined using the cost approach. As a result, we recorded non-cash impairment charges totaling $37.7 million related to property, equipment and software, net and intangible assets, which are included in "Impairment of assets, net" on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. See Note 5, "Property, Equipment and Software, Net," and Note 6, "Goodwill and Intangible Assets," for more information.

The fair value of our non-financial assets and liabilities, which include goodwill, intangible assets and property, plant and equipment, are measured on a non-recurring basis. The fair value of our reporting units, indefinite-lived intangible assets and long-lived assets are classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy due to the significant unobservable inputs developed using company-specific information.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Reference Rate Reform

The United Kingdom's Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR"), announced that it will not compel panel banks to contribute to the overnight 1, 3, 6 and 12 months U.S. dollar LIBOR tenors after June 30, 2023 and all other tenors after December 31, 2021. U.S. dollar LIBOR may be replaced by the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") or other benchmark rates over the next several years. In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (ASC 848) - Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting containing practical expedients for reference rate reform related activities that impact debt, leases, derivatives and other contracts. In December 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-06, Reference Rate Reform (ASC 848) - Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848, which extended the date to apply the practical expedients outlined in ASU No. 2020-04 from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2024. The guidance in these ASUs is optional and may be applied from March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2024 as reference rate reform activities occur.

During the second quarter of 2023, we elected to apply certain practical expedients in connection with the execution of amendments to our affected contracts that referenced LIBOR. On April 26, 2023, we executed an amendment to our First Lien Credit Agreement, which governs our Senior Facilities borrowings, to establish Term SOFR as the benchmark rate for determining the applicable interest rate, replacing LIBOR. In addition, effective May 9, 2023, we amended our interest rate swap agreement to change the index from three-month LIBOR to one-month Term SOFR. See Note 7, "Debt" and Note 12, "Derivatives" for more information. We continue to evaluate the impact of the guidance and may apply other elections prior to December 31, 2024, as applicable, as additional changes in the market occur.

We identified an immaterial correction in the disclosure of the amount previously reported as recognized in revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, which were included in deferred revenue as of the beginning of the period and have updated these amounts to $17.1 million and $83.7 million, respectively. Amounts recognized in revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, which were included in deferred revenue as of the beginning of the period totaled $30.0 million and $68.0 million, respectively.

Cost Incurred to Obtain and Fulfill a Contract

As of December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2023, the balances of capitalized costs to obtain a contract were $55.8 million and $43.9 million, respectively, and the balances of capitalized costs to fulfill a contract were $17.7 million and $14.4 million, respectively.

Remaining Performance Obligations    

As of September 30, 2023, the aggregate amount of transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations was $465.4 million, of which approximately 22% is expected to be recognized as revenue during the remainder of 2023 and the remainder thereafter. These remaining performance obligations primarily relate to our fixed-term arrangements. The aggregate amount of transaction price excludes variable consideration related to our usage-based arrangements for which we recognize revenue based on the right to invoice for the services performed.

Convertible Promissory Note

On September 27, 2022, we entered into a convertible note purchase agreement with a private company that is also a customer and a vendor. Pursuant to the purchase agreement, we purchased an unsecured convertible promissory note (the “Note”) in an aggregate principal amount of $15.0 million. The Note accrues simple interest at a rate of 6% per annum and matures on September 27, 2027, unless earlier converted per the terms of the agreement. Principal and accrued interest are due and payable on the maturity date. We elected to apply the fair value option under ASC No. 825, Financial Instruments, to account for the Note. As of December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2023, the fair value of the Note was $11.8 million and $12.8 million, respectively, and is included in “Other non-current assets” on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

3. Sale of Receivables

On September 29, 2023 (the “Closing Date”), Rackspace US, Inc. and Rackspace Receivables II, LLC, a bankruptcy-remote special purpose vehicle (“SPV”), each an indirect subsidiary of the company, entered into an accounts receivable purchase agreement (the “Receivables Facility”) with PNC Bank, National Association (“PNC”) and other parties thereto.

Under the Receivables Facility, certain indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries of the company have sold and/or contributed, and may continue to sell and/or contribute on a revolving basis, their current and future accounts receivable to the SPV, which, in turn, will sell and transfer, and may continue to sell and transfer, the accounts receivable to PNC in exchange for cash. The Receivables Facility will terminate on September 29, 2026 unless earlier terminated in accordance with its terms and the SPV can sell accounts receivable based upon the face amount of eligible receivables in the collateral pool up to an aggregate maximum limit of $300.0 million. The purpose of this arrangement is to enhance the company's financial flexibility by providing additional liquidity.

The Receivables Facility is subject to yield charges based upon a rate as specified in the agreement. The SPV is also required to pay certain customary fees on a monthly basis in addition to an upfront fee and a commitment fee. The Receivables Facility contains certain customary termination events, as well as customary representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants, indemnification provisions, and events of default, including those providing for the acceleration of amounts owed by the SPV to PNC upon the occurrence of certain events.

The transfer of receivables to PNC are accounted for as sales because effective control and risk associated with the receivables is passed to PNC. As these transfers represent true sales, we derecognize the sold receivables from our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Cash proceeds related to the receivables sold are included in cash from operating activities in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Yield charges and fees recorded in connection with the sales are recorded within “Other expense, net” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss. The company maintains continuing involvement with the sold receivables by providing collection services in exchange for a servicing fee. Servicing fees are immaterial and no servicing asset or liability has been recognized. The company may incur a recourse obligation in limited circumstances. Separate accruals have been established for recourse obligations and are immaterial as of September 30, 2023.

As of September 30, 2023, we had sold accounts receivable having an aggregate face value of $209.0 million in exchange for cash proceeds of $209.0 million. In connection with this sale, we recorded $4.9 million of expense, consisting of $1.6 million of estimated yield charges representing a loss on sale and $3.3 million of transaction costs, within “Other expense, net” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023. We used $50.0 million of the cash proceeds to fully repay the outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility and the remainder will be used for general corporate purposes. The SPV holds unsold receivables of $130.6 million as of September 30, 2023 that are pledged as collateral to PNC.

4. Net Loss Per Share

Basic net loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average shares outstanding during the period.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net loss per share:

Number of shares used in per share computations210.8216.0210.7214.8
Net loss per share$(2.43)$(1.05)$(2.80)$(4.03)

Potential common share equivalents consist of shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options, vesting of restricted stock or purchase under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "ESPP"), as well as contingent shares associated with our acquisition of Datapipe Parent, Inc. Since we were in a net loss position for all periods presented, basic net loss per share is the same as diluted net loss per share for all periods as the inclusion of all potential common shares outstanding would have been anti-dilutive. We excluded 24.2 million and 41.1 million potential common shares from the computation of dilutive loss per share for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2023, respectively, and 24.2 million and 41.1 million potential shares for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2023, respectively, because the effect would have been anti-dilutive.

See Note 1, "Company Overview, Basis of Presentation, and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies," for discussion of the long-lived asset impairment charges.

In October 2022, we announced our intention to sell our current corporate headquarters facility located in Windcrest, Texas and relocate our corporate headquarters to leased office space in San Antonio, Texas. As of December 31, 2022, this property met the criteria to be classified as held for sale under GAAP. The property's previous carrying amount of $82.7 million was written down to its estimated fair value, less estimated cost to sell, of $12.1 million, resulting in a $70.6 million impairment charge included in "Impairment of assets, net" in the fourth quarter of 2022. The property's estimated fair value, less estimated cost to sell, of $12.1 million was recorded in "Other current assets" in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2022.

Table of Contents
In July 2023, we entered into a purchase and sale agreement with a potential buyer of the property for $21.5 million. Under held for sale accounting, the carrying amount of the property held for sale should be remeasured each reporting period for changes in fair value less cost to sell. As such, we increased the property’s estimated fair value, less estimated cost to sell, to $20.7 million as of September 30, 2023, resulting in an $8.6 million gain, which is included in "Impairment of assets, net" in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023. We are currently in negotiations with certain local governments and other parties to terminate the Master Economic Incentives Agreement associated with the property which could require us to pay a termination fee upon completion of the sale.

Senior Facilities

Our senior secured credit facilities include the Term Loan Facility and the Revolving Credit Facility (together, the "Senior Facilities").

On February 9, 2021, we amended and restated the credit agreement governing our Senior Facilities (the "First Lien Credit Agreement"), which included a new seven-year $2,300.0 million senior secured first lien term loan facility due on February 15, 2028 and our existing $375.0 million Revolving Credit Facility. We used the borrowings under the Term Loan Facility, together with the proceeds from the issuance of the 3.50% Senior Secured Notes described below (together, the "February 2021 Refinancing Transaction"), to repay all borrowings under our prior term loan facility (the "Prior Term Loan Facility"), to pay related fees and expenses and for general corporate purposes.

On April 26, 2023, we executed an amendment to our First Lien Credit Agreement to establish Term SOFR as the benchmark rate for determining the applicable interest rate, replacing LIBOR.

As a result of the amendment, borrowings under the Senior Facilities bear interest at an annual rate equal to an applicable margin plus, at our option, either (a) Term SOFR equal to the forward-looking term rate, based on the secured overnight financing rate as administered by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, for the interest period relevant to such borrowing, plus the credit spread adjustment recommended by the Alternative Reference Rates Committee, adjusted for certain additional costs, subject to a 0.75% floor, in the case of the Term Loan Facility, and a 1.00% floor, in the case of the Revolving Credit Facility, or (b) a base rate determined by reference to the highest of (i) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, (ii) the prime rate of Citibank, N.A. and (iii) adjusted Term SOFR for a one-month tenor plus 1.00%.

The credit spread adjustment is 0.11% for an interest period of one-month's duration, 0.26% for an interest period of three-months' duration, and 0.43% for an interest period of six-months' duration. The applicable margin for the Term Loan Facility is 2.75% for SOFR loans and 1.75% for base rate loans and the applicable margin for the Revolving Credit Facility is 3.00% for SOFR loans and 2.00% for base rate loans. Interest is due at the end of each interest period elected, not exceeding 90 days, for SOFR loans and at the end of every calendar quarter for base rate loans.

All other material terms and conditions of the First Lien Credit Agreement were unchanged.

In addition to paying interest on the outstanding principal under the Senior Facilities, the Revolving Credit Facility also includes a commitment fee equal to 0.50% per annum in respect of the unused commitments that is due quarterly. This commitment fee is subject to one step-down based on the net first lien leverage ratio.

As of September 30, 2023, the interest rate on the Term Loan Facility was 8.19%. We are required to make quarterly principal payments of $5.8 million, which began on June 30, 2021. See Note 12, "Derivatives," for information on interest rate swap agreements we utilize to manage the interest rate risk on the Term Loan Facility.

Affiliates of ABRY Partners, LLC and ABRY Partners II, LLC (collectively, "ABRY"), are Term Loan Facility lenders under the First Lien Credit Agreement. As of September 30, 2023, the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan Facility was $2,242.5 million, of which $58.5 million, or 2.6%, is due to ABRY affiliates. Investment funds affiliated with ABRY are also co-investors in Rackspace Technology.

As of September 30, 2023, Apollo Global Management, Inc. also held $24.3 million, or 1.1%, of the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan Facility.

In addition to the quarterly amortization payments discussed above, the Senior Facilities require us to make certain mandatory prepayments, including using (i) a portion of annual excess cash flow, as defined in the First Lien Credit Agreement, to prepay the Term Loan Facility, (ii) net cash proceeds of certain non-ordinary assets sales or dispositions of property to prepay the Term Loan Facility and (iii) net cash proceeds of any issuance or incurrence of debt not permitted under the Senior Facilities to prepay the Term Loan Facility. We may make voluntary prepayments at any time without penalty, except in connection with a repricing event, as defined in the First Lien Credit Agreement.

The fair value of the Term Loan Facility as of September 30, 2023 was $1,009.1 million, based on quoted market prices for identical assets that are traded in over-the-counter secondary markets that are not considered active. The fair value of the Term Loan Facility is classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.

Rackspace Technology Global is the borrower under the Senior Facilities, and all obligations under the Senior Facilities are (i) guaranteed by Inception Parent, Inc., Rackspace Technology Global's immediate parent company, on a limited recourse basis and secured by the equity interests of Rackspace Technology Global held by Inception Parent, Inc. and (ii) guaranteed by Rackspace Technology Global's wholly-owned domestic restricted subsidiaries and secured by substantially all material owned assets of Rackspace Technology Global and the subsidiary guarantors, including the equity interests held by each, in each case subject to certain exceptions. The only financial covenant is with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility which limits the net first lien leverage ratio to a maximum of 5.00 to 1.00; however, this covenant is only applicable and tested if the aggregate amount of outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility and letters of credit issued thereunder (excluding $25.0 million of undrawn letters of credit and cash collateralized letters of credit) is equal to or greater than 35% of the Revolving Credit Facility commitments at the end of a fiscal quarter. Other covenants include limitations on restricted payments, indebtedness, investments, liens, asset sales and transactions with affiliates.

As of September 30, 2023, we were in compliance with all covenants under the Senior Facilities.

The Revolving Credit Facility matures on August 7, 2025. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we borrowed and fully repaid $50.0 million. As of September 30, 2023, we had total commitments of $375.0 million, no outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, and $3.5 million of letters of credit issued thereunder. As such, as of September 30, 2023, we had $375.0 million of available commitments remaining.

3.50% Senior Secured Notes due 2028

On February 9, 2021, Rackspace Technology Global issued $550.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 3.50% Senior Secured Notes. The 3.50% Senior Secured Notes will mature on February 15, 2028 and bear interest at an annual fixed rate of 3.50%. Interest is payable semiannually on each February 15 and August 15, commencing on August 15, 2021. The 3.50% Senior Secured Notes are not subject to registration rights. As noted above, we used the net proceeds from the issuance of the 3.50% Senior Secured Notes, together with borrowings under the Term Loan Facility described above, to repay all borrowings outstanding under the Prior Term Loan Facility, to pay related fees and expenses and for general corporate purposes.

Rackspace Technology Global is the issuer of the 3.50% Senior Secured Notes, and obligations under the 3.50% Senior Secured Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, by all of Rackspace Technology Global’s wholly-owned domestic restricted subsidiaries (as subsidiary guarantors) that guarantee the Senior Facilities. The 3.50% Senior Secured Notes and the related guarantees are secured by first-priority security interests in substantially all material owned assets of Rackspace Technology Global and the subsidiary guarantors, including the equity interest held by each, subject to certain exceptions, which assets also secure the Senior Facilities. The indenture governing the 3.50% Senior Secured Notes (the "3.50% Notes Indenture") describes certain terms and conditions under which other current and future domestic subsidiaries are required to become guarantors of the 3.50% Senior Secured Notes.

Rackspace Technology Global may redeem the 3.50% Senior Secured Notes at its option, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at the following redemption prices: prior to February 15, 2024, at a redemption price equal to 100.000% of the principal amount, plus the applicable premium described in the 3.50% Notes Indenture and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but excluding the redemption date; from February 15, 2024 to February 14, 2025, at a redemption price equal to 101.750% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but excluding the redemption date; from February 15, 2025 to February 14, 2026, at a redemption price equal to 100.875% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but excluding the redemption date; and from February 15, 2026 and thereafter, at a redemption price equal to 100.000% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but excluding the redemption date. Rackspace Technology Global may also redeem prior to February 15, 2024 up to 40.0% of the aggregate principal amount of the 3.50% Senior Secured Notes with funds in an aggregate amount not to exceed the net cash proceeds from certain equity offerings at a redemption price equal to 103.500% of the principal amount of the 3.50% Senior Secured Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Rackspace Technology Global may redeem during each twelve-month period, commencing with February 9, 2021, up to 10.0% of the original aggregate principal amount of the 3.50% Senior Secured Notes at a redemption price of 103.000%, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the applicable redemption date.

The 3.50% Notes Indenture contains covenants that, among other things, limit our ability to incur certain additional debt, incur certain liens securing debt, pay certain dividends or make other restricted payments, make certain investments, make certain asset sales and enter into certain transactions with affiliates. These covenants are subject to a number of exceptions, limitations, and qualifications as set forth in the 3.50% Notes Indenture. Additionally, upon the occurrence of a change of control (as defined in the 3.50% Notes Indenture), we will be required to make an offer to repurchase all of the outstanding 3.50% Senior Secured Notes at a price in cash equal to 101.000% of the aggregate principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including the purchase date.

As of September 30, 2023, Rackspace Technology Global was in compliance with all covenants under the 3.50% Notes Indenture.

The fair value of the 3.50% Senior Secured Notes as of September 30, 2023 was $247.5 million, based on quoted market prices for identical assets that are traded in over-the-counter secondary markets that are not considered active. The fair value of the 3.50% Senior Secured Notes are classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.

5.375% Senior Notes due 2028

On December 1, 2020, Rackspace Technology Global issued $550.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 5.375% Senior Notes. The 5.375% Senior Notes will mature on December 1, 2028 and bear interest at an annual fixed rate of 5.375%. Interest is payable semiannually on each June 1 and December 1, commencing on June 1, 2021. The 5.375% Senior Notes are not subject to registration rights.

Rackspace Technology Global is the issuer of the 5.375% Senior Notes, and obligations under the 5.375% Senior Notes are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by all of Rackspace Technology Global's wholly-owned domestic restricted subsidiaries (as subsidiary guarantors) that guarantee the Senior Facilities. The 5.375% Senior Notes are effectively junior to the indebtedness under the Senior Facilities and the 3.50% Senior Secured Notes, to the extent of the collateral securing the Senior Facilities and the 3.50% Senior Secured Notes. The indenture governing the 5.375% Senior Notes (the "5.375% Notes Indenture") describes certain terms and conditions under which other current and future domestic subsidiaries are required to become guarantors of the 5.375% Senior Notes.

Rackspace Technology Global may redeem the 5.375% Senior Notes at its option, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at the following redemption prices: prior to December 1, 2023, at a redemption price equal to 100.000% of the principal amount, plus the applicable premium described in the 5.375% Notes Indenture and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but excluding the redemption date; from December 1, 2023 to November 30, 2024, at a redemption price equal to 102.688% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but excluding the redemption date; from December 1, 2024 to November 30, 2025, at a redemption price equal to 101.344% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but excluding the redemption date; and from December 1, 2025 and thereafter, at a redemption price equal to 100.000% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but excluding the redemption date. Rackspace Technology Global may also redeem prior to December 1, 2023 up to 40.0% of the aggregate principal amount of the 5.375% Senior Notes with funds in an aggregate amount not to exceed the net cash proceeds from certain equity offerings at a redemption price equal to 105.375% of the principal amount of the 5.375% Senior Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date.

8. Commitments and Contingencies

We have contingencies that arise from various litigation, claims and commitments, none of which we consider to be material.

From time to time, we are a party to various claims asserting that certain of our services and technologies infringe the intellectual property rights of others. Adverse results in these lawsuits may include awards of substantial monetary damages, costly royalty or licensing agreements, or orders preventing us from offering certain features, products, or services, and may also cause us to change our business practices and require development of non-infringing products or technologies, which could result in a loss of revenue for us or otherwise harm our business.

We record an accrual for a loss contingency when a loss is considered probable and reasonably estimable. As additional facts concerning a loss contingency become known, we reassess our position and make appropriate adjustments to a recorded accrual. The amount that will ultimately be paid related to a matter may differ from the recorded accrual, and the timing of such payments, if any, may be uncertain.

We are not a party to any litigation, the outcome of which, if determined adversely to us, would individually or in the aggregate be reasonably expected to have a material and adverse effect on our business, financial position or results of operations.

Hosted Exchange Incident

We are named in several lawsuits in connection with the December 2022 ransomware incident which caused service disruptions on our Hosted Exchange email business. The pending lawsuits seek, among other things, equitable and compensatory relief. We are vigorously defending these matters. We do not expect any of these claims, individually or in the aggregate, to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations. However, at this early stage in the proceedings, we are not able to determine the probability of the outcome of these matters or a range of reasonably expected losses, if any. We maintain insurance, including coverage for cyber-attacks, subject to certain deductibles and policy limitations, in an amount that we believe appropriate. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, we recorded $0.1 million and $5.0 million, respectively, of expenses related to the Hosted Exchange incident, including costs to investigate and remediate, legal and other professional services, and supplemental staff resources that were deployed to provide support to customers. We recorded $5.4 million of loss recovery insurance proceeds received or expected to be received during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Headquarters Lease

In February 2023, we signed an agreement to lease approximately 93,000 square feet of office space in San Antonio, Texas, which will serve as our new corporate headquarters. The initial lease term is 11 years, with three 5-year renewal options. In addition to monthly base rent, we will also pay a share of common area maintenance and operating expenses. As of September 30, 2023, the lease had not yet commenced.

9. Share Repurchase Program

On March 3, 2022, our board of directors authorized a program to repurchase up to $75.0 million of shares of our common stock from time to time through open-market transactions, privately negotiated transactions, accelerated share repurchases and other transactions in accordance with applicable security laws. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we repurchased $31.0 million, or 3.1 million shares, of our common stock on the open market under this program. No shares were repurchased during the three months ended September 30, 2022 or the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023. Shares purchased pursuant to the program are recorded as treasury stock at cost in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The program expired on September 30, 2023.

10. Share-Based Compensation

On April 21, 2023, the Board of Directors approved an amendment to the Rackspace Technology, Inc. 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2020 Incentive Plan") to increase the maximum number of shares of our common stock available for issuance under the 2020 Incentive Plan from 50.0 million shares to 57.9 million shares, subject to stockholder approval. The amendment was subsequently approved by our stockholders as part of the 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on June 16, 2023.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we granted 27.0 million restricted stock units ("RSUs") under the 2020 Incentive Plan with a weighted-average grant date fair value of $2.21. The majority of the RSUs were granted as part of our annual compensation award process and vest ratably over a three-year period, subject to continued service.

In addition, during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, 2.8 million performance stock units ("PSUs") were granted under the 2020 Incentive Plan with a weighted-average grant date fair value of $1.90, and 5.5 million long-term incentive cash units ("LTIC units") were granted under the 2020 Incentive Plan with a weighted-average fair value as of September 30, 2023 of $0.80. Both the PSUs and LTIC units represent the target amount of grants, and the actual number of shares or units awarded upon vesting may vary depending upon the achievement of the relevant market condition which is based on Rackspace's Total Shareholder Return ("TSR") relative to the TSR of a comparator group of IT and Cloud Services Companies. The awards are eligible to vest in equal annual installments over three years based on the attainment of the market condition and the employee's continued service through the end of the applicable measurement period and were valued using a Monte Carlo simulation. As the company intends to settle the LTIC units in cash, they are classified as a liability within "Other current liabilities" and "Other non-current liabilities" in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Total share-based compensation expense is comprised of the following equity and liability classified award amounts:

Three Months Ended September 30,Nine Months Ended September 30,
(In millions)2022202320222023
Equity classified awards$19.4 $17.0 $59.5 $50.3 
Liability classified awards 0.2  1.6 
Total share-based compensation expense$19.4 $17.2 $59.5 $51.9 

Total share-based compensation expense recognized was as follows:

Less: Income tax benefit(4.1)(3.6)(12.5)(10.9)
Total share-based compensation expense, net of tax$15.3 $13.6 $47.0 $41.0 

As of September 30, 2023, there was $94.9 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to stock options, RSUs, PSUs, and the ESPP, which will be recognized using the service period or over our best estimate of the period over which the performance condition will be met, as applicable.

11. Taxes
 
We are subject to U.S. federal income tax and various state, local, and international income taxes in numerous jurisdictions. The differences between our effective tax rate and the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% generally result from various factors, including the geographical distribution of taxable income, tax credits, contingency reserves for uncertain tax positions, and permanent differences between the book and tax treatment of certain items. Additionally, the amount of income taxes paid is subject to our interpretation of applicable tax laws in the jurisdictions in which we file. For the three months ended September 30, 2023, our effective tax rate is lower than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the tax impact associated with the goodwill impairment recorded in the third quarter of 2023, the majority of which was nondeductible for income tax purposes, executive compensation that is nondeductible under Internal Revenue Code ("IRC") Section 162(m), the net impact of the geographic distribution of our earnings, tax effects from nondeductible share-based compensation as well as changes in our valuation allowance. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, our effective tax rate is lower than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the tax impact associated with the goodwill impairments recorded in the first and third quarters of 2023, the majority of which were nondeductible for income tax purposes, executive compensation that is nondeductible under IRC Section 162(m), the net impact of the geographic distribution of our earnings, tax effects from nondeductible share-based compensation as well as changes in our valuation allowance. During the first quarter of 2023, we determined that certain deferred tax assets no longer meet the more likely than not recognition criteria. As such, we have provided a valuation allowance for these assets, which is incorporated into our annual effective tax rate. In December 2021, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (the “OECD”) issued model rules for a new global minimum tax framework (Pillar Two). Governments in many of the countries where we operate have issued, or are in the process of issuing, legislation on this rule. We are currently evaluating, but do not expect this rule to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

12. Derivatives

We utilize derivative instruments, including interest rate swap agreements, to manage our exposure to interest rate risk. We only hold such instruments for economic hedging purposes, not for speculative or trading purposes. Our derivative instruments are transacted only with highly-rated institutions, which reduces our exposure to credit risk in the event of nonperformance.

Interest Rate Swaps

We are exposed to interest rate risk associated with fluctuations in interest rates on the floating-rate Term Loan Facility. The objective in using interest rate derivatives is to manage our exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, we have entered into interest rate swap agreements as part of our interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount.

On January 9, 2020, we designated certain of our swaps as cash flow hedges. On the designation date, the cash flow hedges were in a $39.9 million liability position. The cash flow hedges were expected to be highly effective on the designation date and, on a quarterly basis, we performed retrospective and prospective regression assessments to determine whether the cash flow hedges continue to be highly effective. As long as the cash flow hedges are highly effective, changes in fair value are recorded to "Accumulated other comprehensive income" in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and reclassified to "Interest expense" in the period when the underlying transaction affects earnings. The income tax effects of cash flow hedges are released from "Accumulated other comprehensive income" in the period when the underlying transaction affects earnings. Any stranded income tax effects are released from "Accumulated other comprehensive income" into "Benefit for income taxes" under the portfolio approach.

During the year ended December 31, 2021, we completed a series of transactions to modify our interest rate swap positions as follows: (i) All the interest rate swaps outstanding as of December 31, 2020, with the exception of the agreement that matured on February 3, 2021, were de-designated as cash flow hedges on January 31, 2021, (ii) on February 12, 2021, we entered into a $900.0 million receive-fixed interest rate swap which was designed to offset the terms of two December 2016 swaps, and (iii) on February 12, 2021, we terminated all December 2018 swaps and entered into a $1.35 billion pay-fixed interest rate swap, effectively blending the liability position of our existing interest rate swap agreements into the new swap and extending the term of our hedged position to February 2026.

The amount remaining in "Accumulated other comprehensive income" for the de-designated December 2016 and December 2018 swaps at the de-designation date was approximately $51.6 million, and is amortized as an increase to "Interest expense" over the effective period of the original swap agreements.

The new receive-fixed interest rate swap qualifies as a hybrid instrument in accordance with ASC No. 815, Derivatives and Hedging, consisting of a loan and an embedded derivative for which the fair value option has been elected. This $900.0 million swap remained undesignated to economically offset the undesignated December 2016 swaps. This new swap and the December 2016 swaps matured on February 3, 2022. Cash settlements related to this receive-fixed interest rate swap offset and are classified as operating activities in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

The new pay-fixed interest rate swap also qualifies as a hybrid instrument in accordance with ASC No. 815, Derivatives and Hedging, consisting of a loan and an embedded at-market derivative that was designated as a cash flow hedge. The loan is accounted for at amortized cost over the life of the swap while the embedded at-market derivative is accounted for at fair value. The $1.35 billion swap was originally indexed to three-month LIBOR and net settled on a quarterly basis with the counterparty for the difference between the fixed rate of 2.3820% and the variable rate based upon three-month LIBOR (subject to a floor of 0.75%) as applied to the notional amount of the swap. In connection with the transactions discussed above, no cash was exchanged between us and the counterparty. The liability of the terminated interest rate swaps as well as the inception value of the receive-fixed interest rate swap was blended into the new pay-fixed interest rate swap. The cash flows related to the portion treated as debt will be classified as financing activities in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows while the portion treated as an at-market derivative will be classified as operating activities.

Table of Contents
As discussed in Note 7, "Debt", on April 26, 2023 we executed an amendment to our First Lien Credit Agreement, which governs borrowings under our Term Loan Facility. This amendment established Term SOFR as the benchmark rate for determining the applicable interest rate, replacing LIBOR. To continue to manage our exposure to interest rate risk associated with our Term Loan Facility, effective May 9, 2023, we amended our remaining swap agreement to change the index from three-month LIBOR (subject to a floor of 0.75%) to one-month Term SOFR (subject to a floor of 0.75%). The fixed rate also changed from 2.3820% to 2.34150% as a result of the swap agreement amendment. As described in Note 1, "Company Overview, Basis of Presentation, and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" we elected to apply certain practical expedients under GAAP to allow for this transition without any interruptions to hedge accounting treatment.

On a monthly basis, we net settle with the counterparty for the difference between the fixed rate of 2.34150% and the variable rate based upon the one-month Term SOFR (subject to a floor of 0.75%) as applied to the notional amount of the swap.

As of December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2023, the cash flow hedge was highly effective.
