FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and any exhibits to this Report may contain "forward-looking statements" as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “will,” “should” and similar expressions, as they relate to us, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements reflect Management's current beliefs, assumptions and expectations and are subject to a number of factors that may cause actual results to differ materially. Such factors include, but are not limited to: changes in economic conditions, political conditions, trade protection measures, licensing requirements and tax matters in the United States and in the foreign countries in which we do business; changes in foreign currency exchange rates; our ability to successfully develop new products, technologies and service offerings and to protect our intellectual property rights; the risk that multi-year contracts with governmental entities could be terminated prior to the end of the contract term and that civil or criminal penalties and administrative sanctions could be imposed on us if we fail to comply with the terms of such contracts and applicable law; the risk that our bids do not accurately estimate the resources and costs required to implement and service very complex, multi-year governmental and commercial contracts, often in advance of the final determination of the full scope and design of such contracts or as a result of the scope of such contracts being changed during the life of such contracts; the risk that subcontractors, software vendors and utility and network providers will not perform in a timely, quality manner; service interruptions; actions of competitors and our ability to promptly and effectively react to changing technologies and customer expectations; our ability to obtain adequate pricing for our products and services and to maintain and improve cost efficiency of operations, including savings from restructuring actions and the relocation of our service delivery centers; the risk that individually identifiable information of customers, clients and employees could be inadvertently disclosed or disclosed as a result of a breach of our security systems; the risk in the hiring and retention of qualified personnel; the risk that unexpected costs will be incurred; our ability to recover capital investments; the risk that our Services business could be adversely affected if we are unsuccessful in managing the start-up of new contracts; the collectibility of our receivables for unbilled services associated with very large, multi-year contracts; reliance on third parties, including subcontractors, for manufacturing of products and provision of services; our ability to expand equipment placements; interest rates, cost of borrowing and access to credit markets; the risk that our products may not comply with applicable worldwide regulatory requirements, particularly environmental regulations and directives; the outcome of litigation and regulatory proceedings to which we may be a party; and other factors that are set forth in the “Risk Factors” section, the “Legal Proceedings” section, the “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” section and other sections of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as in our 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Xerox assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements as a result of new information or future events or developments, except as required by law.

On December 18, 2014, Xerox announced that it had entered into an agreement to sell its Information Technology Outsourcing (ITO) business to Atos S.E. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approval and is expected to close in the second quarter of 2015. As a result of the pending sale of the ITO business and having met applicable accounting requirements, Xerox is reporting the ITO business as a discontinued operation.  The forward looking statements contained in this report are subject to the risk that the sale of the ITO business may not occur on the terms, within the time frame and/or in the manner previously disclosed, if at all.

XEROX CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(in millions, except per-share data and where otherwise noted)

Note 1 – Basis of Presentation
References herein to “we,” “us,” “our,” the “Company” and “Xerox” refer to Xerox Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries unless the context suggests otherwise.
We have prepared the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with the accounting policies described in our 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K (2014 Annual Report), and the interim reporting requirements of Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain information and note disclosures normally included in our annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. You should read these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements included in our 2014 Annual Report.
In our opinion, all adjustments which are necessary for a fair statement of financial position, operating results and cash flows for the interim periods presented have been made. These adjustments consist of normal recurring items. Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results of the full year.
For convenience and ease of reference, we refer to the financial statement caption “Income before Income Taxes and Equity Income” as “pre-tax income.”
In December 2014 we announced an agreement to sell our Information Technology Outsourcing (ITO) business to Atos SE (Atos); the sale is expected to close in the second quarter 2015. As a result of the pending sale and having met applicable accounting requirements, we reported the ITO business as held for sale and a discontinued operation at December 31, 2014. In 2014 we also completed the disposal of two smaller businesses - Xerox Audio Visual Solutions, Inc. (XAV) and Truckload Management Services (TMS) - that were also reported as discontinued operations. All prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the presentation of these businesses as discontinued operations. Refer to Note 5 - Divestitures for additional information regarding discontinued operations.

Note 2 – Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Except for the Accounting Standard Updates (ASU's) discussed below, the new ASU's issued by the FASB during the last year did not have any significant impact on the Company.
Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal Use Software: In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-05, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal Use Software. The update provides guidance on fees paid by an entity in a cloud computing arrangement and whether an arrangement includes a license to the underlying software. If a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license, then the entity should account for the software license element of the arrangement consistent with the acquisition of other software licenses. If a cloud computing arrangement does not include a software license, the entity should account for the arrangement as a service contract. The guidance in this update does not change GAAP for an entity's accounting for service contracts. Additionally, this update does not change the accounting guidance for a provider of cloud computing services. This update is effective for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2016. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Interest: In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. The update requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. Debt issuance costs are currently reported as a deferred charge in Other long-term asset and were $34 at March 31, 2015. This update is effective for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2016 with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Xerox 2015 Form 10-Q
7

 

Consolidation: In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis. This update reduces the number of consolidation models by changing the evaluation of (a) limited partnerships and similar entities, (b) whether fees paid to a decision maker or service provider that are variable interests in a variable interest entity, and (c) variable interests in a VIE held by related parties. This update is effective for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2016 with early adoption permitted, and is applied on a retrospective or modified retrospective basis. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Income Statement: In January 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-01 Income Statement-Extraordinary and Unusual Items (Subtopic 225-20) - Simplifying Income Statement Presentation by Eliminating the Concept of Extraordinary Items. ASU 2015-01 eliminates from GAAP the concept of extraordinary items. ASU 2015-01 is effective for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. The standard primarily involves presentation and disclosure and, therefore, is not expected to have a material impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Derivatives and Hedging: In November 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-16, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) - Determining Whether the Host Contract in a Hybrid Financial Instrument Issued in the Form of a Share Is More Akin to Debt or to Equity. ASU 2014-16 does not change the current criteria in GAAP for determining when separation of certain embedded derivative features in a hybrid financial instrument is required. The amendments clarify how current GAAP should be interpreted in evaluating the economic characteristics and risks of a host contract in a hybrid financial instrument that is issued in the form of a share. ASU 2014-16 is effective for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.
Disclosures of Going Concern Uncertainties: In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40); Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. ASU 2014-15 provides guidance regarding management's responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. ASU 2014-15 is effective for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. We do not expect the adoption of this standard to have an impact on our consolidated financial statements.
Stock Compensation: In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-12, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide that a Performance Target Could be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period. ASU 2014-12 requires that a performance target that affects vesting, and that could be achieved after the requisite service period, be treated as a performance condition. As such, the performance target should not be reflected in estimating the grant date fair value of the award. This update is effective for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2016 and early adoption is permitted. We do not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Revenue Recognition: In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), to supersede nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that is expected to be received for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 defines a five step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, it is possible more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than required under existing U.S. GAAP, including identifying performance obligations in the contract, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price and allocating the transaction price to each separate performance obligation. ASU 2014-09 is effective for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2017 using either of two methods: (i) retrospective to each prior reporting period presented with the option to elect certain practical expedients as defined within ASU 2014-09; or (ii) retrospective with the cumulative effect of initially applying ASU 2014-09 recognized at the date of initial application and providing certain additional disclosures as defined per ASU 2014-09. We are currently evaluating the impact of our pending adoption of ASU 2014-09 on our consolidated financial statements.

Xerox 2015 Form 10-Q

Discontinued Operations: In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-08, Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360): Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity. The update changes the requirements for reporting discontinued operations in Subtopic 205-20. A discontinued operation may include a component of an entity or a group of components of an entity, or a business. A disposal of a component of an entity or a group of components of an entity is required to be reported in discontinued operations if the disposal represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results. Examples include a disposal of a major geographic area, a major line of business or a major equity method investment.
Additionally, the update requires expanded disclosures about discontinued operations that will provide financial statement users with more information about the assets, liabilities, income and expenses of discontinued operations. This update was effective prospectively for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2015. The standard primarily involves presentation and disclosure and, therefore, is not expected to have a material impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Service Concession Arrangements: In January 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-05, Service Concession Arrangements (Topic 853). This update specifies that an entity should not account for a service concession arrangement within the scope of this update as a lease in accordance with Topic 840, Leases. The update does not provide specific accounting guidance for various aspects of service concession arrangements but rather indicates that an entity should refer to other Topics as applicable to account for various aspects of a service concession arrangement. The update was effective for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2015. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operation or cash flows.

Note 3 – Segment Reporting
Our reportable segments are aligned with how we manage the business and view the markets we serve. We report our financial performance based on the following two primary reportable segments – Services and Document Technology. Our Services segment operations involve delivery of a broad range of services, including business process and document outsourcing. Our Document Technology segment includes the sale and support of a broad range of document systems from entry level to high-end.
The Services segment is comprised of two outsourcing service offerings:
 
Business Process Outsourcing (BPO)
Document Outsourcing (which includes Managed Print Services) (DO)
Business process outsourcing services include service arrangements where we manage a customer’s business activity or process. We provide multi-industry offerings such as customer care, transaction processing, finance and accounting, and human resources, as well as industry-focused offerings in areas such as healthcare, transportation, financial services, retail and telecommunications. Document outsourcing services include service arrangements that allow customers to streamline, simplify and digitize document-intensive business processes through automation and deployment of software applications and tools and the management of their printing needs. Document outsourcing services also include revenues from our partner print services offerings.
Our Document Technology segment includes the sale of products that share common technology, manufacturing and product platforms. Our products groupings range from:
 
“Entry,” which includes A4 devices and desktop printers; to
“Mid-range,” which includes A3 devices that generally serve workgroup environments in midsize to large enterprises and includes products that fall into the following market categories: Color 41+ ppm priced at less than $100K and Light Production 91+ ppm priced at less than $100K; to
“High-end,” which includes production printing and publishing systems that generally serve the graphic communications marketplace and large enterprises.
Customers range from small and mid-sized businesses to large enterprises. Customers also include graphic communication enterprises as well as channel partners including distributors and resellers. Segment revenues reflect the sale of document systems and supplies, technical services and product financing.

The segment classified as Other includes several units, none of which meet the thresholds for separate segment reporting. This group includes paper sales in our developing market countries, Wide Format Systems, licensing

Business transformation costs represent incremental costs incurred directly in support of our business transformation and restructuring initiatives such as compensation costs for overlapping staff, consulting costs and training costs.

Note 4 – Acquisitions
In January 2015, we acquired Intrepid Learning Solutions, Inc. (Intrepid), a Seattle-based company, for $28 in cash. Intrepid provides outsourced learning services primarily in the aerospace manufacturing and technology industries. The acquisition of Intrepid will solidify the position of Xerox's Learning Services unit as a leading provider of end-to-end outsourced learning services, and adds key vertical market expertise in the aerospace industry. Intrepid is included in our Services segment.

The operating results of this acquisition are not material to our financial statements and are included within our results from the acquisition date. The purchase price has initially been allocated primarily to goodwill based on preliminary third-party valuations and management’s estimates. These estimated values are not yet finalized and are subject to change. We will finalize the amounts recognized as we obtain the information necessary to complete the analysis.     

Note 5 – Divestitures
Information Technology Outsourcing (ITO)
In December 2014 we announced an agreement to sell our ITO business to Atos for $1,050. The final sales price is subject to closing balance sheet related adjustments as well as the potential for additional consideration of $50 contingent on the condition of certain assets at closing. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approval and is expected to close in the second quarter 2015.

Xerox 2015 Form 10-Q

As a result of this pending transaction and having met applicable accounting requirements, we are reporting the ITO business (disposal group) as held for sale and a Discontinued Operation.
In fourth quarter 2014, we recorded a net pre-tax loss of $181 related to the pending sale, reflecting the write-down of the carrying value of the ITO disposal group, inclusive of goodwill, to its estimated fair value less costs to sell. In first quarter 2015, we recorded an additional net pre-tax loss of $4 related to the adjustment of estimates regarding asset values and related expenses associated with the disposal. In addition, upon final disposal of the business, we expect to record additional tax expense of approximately $75 within Discontinued Operations primarily related to the difference between the book basis and tax basis of allocated goodwill. All of the assets and liabilities of the ITO business are reported as held for sale at March 31, 2015 and are included in Assets and Liabilities of Discontinued Operations, respectively, in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at March 31, 2015.
Other Discontinued Operations:
Other discontinued operations includes the 2014 closure of Xerox Audio Visual Solutions, Inc. (XAV) and the 2014 sale of our Truckload Management Services, Inc. (TMS) business.

Unbilled amounts include amounts associated with percentage-of-completion accounting and other earned revenues not currently billable due to contractual provisions. Amounts to be invoiced in the subsequent month for current services provided are included in amounts billable, and at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 were approximately $933 and $945, respectively.

We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers and adjust credit limits based upon customer payment history and current creditworthiness. The allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable is determined principally on the basis of past collection experience, as well as consideration of current economic conditions and changes in our customer collection trends.
Accounts Receivable Sales Arrangements
Accounts receivable sales arrangements are utilized in the normal course of business as part of our cash and liquidity management. We have facilities in the U.S., Canada and several countries in Europe that enable us to sell certain accounts receivable without recourse to third-parties. The accounts receivable sold are generally short-term trade receivables with payment due dates of less than 60 days.
All of our arrangements involve the sale of our entire interest in groups of accounts receivable for cash. In most instances a portion of the sales proceeds are held back by the purchaser and payment is deferred until collection of the related receivables sold. Such holdbacks are not considered legal securities nor are they certificated. We report collections on such receivables as operating cash flows in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows because such receivables are the result of an operating activity and the associated interest rate risk is de minimis due to its short-term nature. Our risk of loss following the sales of accounts receivable is limited to the outstanding deferred purchase price receivable. These receivables are included in the caption “Other current assets” in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and were $63 and $73 at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.
Under most of the arrangements, we continue to service the sold accounts receivable. When applicable, a servicing liability is recorded for the estimated fair value of the servicing. The amounts associated with the servicing liability were not material.
Of the accounts receivable sold and derecognized from our balance sheet, $563 and $580 remained uncollected as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.

Note 7 - Finance Receivables, Net
Sale of Finance Receivables
In 2013 and 2012, we transferred our entire interest in certain groups of lease finance receivables to third-party entities for cash proceeds and beneficial interests. The transfers were accounted for as sales with derecognition of the associated lease receivables. There were no finance receivable transfers in the three months ended March 31, 2015 or the year ending December 31, 2014. We continue to service the sold receivables and record servicing fee income over the expected life of the associated receivables.
The following is a summary of our prior sales activity - there were no sales in 2015 or 2014:

The principal value of finance receivables derecognized from our balance sheet was $450 and $549 (sales value of approximately $487 and $596) at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.

Summary
The lease portfolios transferred and sold were all from our Document Technology segment, and the gains on these sales were reported in Financing revenues within the Document Technology segment. The ultimate purchaser has no recourse to our other assets for the failure of customers to pay principal and interest when due beyond our beneficial interests, which were $66 and $77 at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively, and are included in Other current assets and Other long-term assets in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Beneficial interests of $56 and $64 at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively, are held by bankruptcy-remote subsidiaries and therefore are not available to satisfy any of our creditor obligations. We report collections on the beneficial interests as operating cash flows in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows because such beneficial interests are the result of an operating activity, and the associated interest rate risk is de minimis considering their weighted average lives of less than 2 years.

The net impact from the sales of finance receivables on operating cash flows is summarized below:

Finance Receivables – Allowance for Credit Losses and Credit Quality
Finance receivables include sales-type leases, direct financing leases and installment loans. Our finance receivable portfolios are primarily in the U.S., Canada and Europe. We generally establish customer credit limits and estimate the allowance for credit losses on a country or geographic basis. Our policy and methodology used to establish our allowance for doubtful accounts has been consistently applied over all periods presented.

We evaluate our customers based on the following credit quality indicators:
Investment grade: This rating includes accounts with excellent to good business credit, asset quality and the capacity to meet financial obligations. These customers are less susceptible to adverse effects due to shifts in economic conditions or changes in circumstance. The rating generally equates to a Standard & Poors (S&P) rating of BBB- or better. Loss rates in this category are normally minimal at less than 1%.
Non-investment grade: This rating includes accounts with average credit risk that are more susceptible to loss in the event of adverse business or economic conditions. This rating generally equates to a BB S&P rating. Although we experience higher loss rates associated with this customer class, we believe the risk is somewhat mitigated by the fact that our leases are fairly well dispersed across a large and diverse customer base. In addition, the higher loss rates are largely offset by the higher rates of return we obtain on such leases. Loss rates in this category are generally in the range of 2% to 4%.
Substandard: This rating includes accounts that have marginal credit risk such that the customer’s ability to make repayment is impaired or may likely become impaired. We use numerous strategies to mitigate risk including higher rates of interest, prepayments, personal guarantees, etc. Accounts in this category include customers who were downgraded during the term of the lease from investment and non-investment grade status when the lease was originated. Accordingly, there is a distinct possibility for a loss of principal and interest or customer default. The loss rates in this category are around 10%.

Note 10 – Restructuring Programs
During the three months ended March 31, 2015, we recorded net restructuring and asset impairment charges of $14, which included approximately $21 of severance costs related to headcount reductions of approximately 580 employees worldwide and $1 of lease cancellations. These costs were offset by $8 of net reversals, primarily resulting from changes in estimated reserves from prior period initiatives.

Note 12 – Financial Instruments
Interest Rate Risk Management
We use interest rate swap agreements to manage our interest rate exposure and to achieve a desired proportion of variable and fixed rate debt. These derivatives may be designated as fair value hedges or cash flow hedges depending on the nature of the risk being hedged.
Fair Value Hedges
As of March 31, 2015, pay variable/receive fixed interest rate swaps with notional amounts of $300 and net asset fair value of $9 were designated and accounted for as fair value hedges. The swaps were structured to hedge the fair value of related debt by converting them from fixed rate instruments to variable rate instruments.

Foreign Exchange Risk Management
We are a global company that is exposed to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations in the normal course of our business. As a part of our foreign exchange risk management strategy, we use derivative instruments, primarily forward contracts and purchased option contracts, to hedge the following foreign currency exposures, thereby reducing volatility of earnings or protecting fair values of assets and liabilities:
 
Foreign currency-denominated assets and liabilities
Forecasted purchases and sales in foreign currency
Summary of Foreign Exchange Hedging Positions
At March 31, 2015, we had outstanding forward exchange and purchased option contracts with gross notional values of $2,894, which is reflective of the amounts that are normally outstanding at any point during the year. Approximately 67% of these contracts mature within three months, 9% in three to six months, 23% in six to twelve months, and 1% in more than twelve months.

During the three months ended March 31, 2015 and March 31, 2014, no amount of ineffectiveness was recorded in earnings for these designated cash flow hedges and all components of each derivative’s gain (loss) was included in the assessment of hedge effectiveness. In addition, no amount was recorded for an underlying exposure that did not occur or was not expected to occur.
At March 31, 2015, a net after-tax gain of $7 was recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss associated with our cash flow hedging activity. The entire balance is expected to be reclassified into net income within the next 12 months, providing an offsetting economic impact against the underlying anticipated transactions.
Non-Designated Derivative Instruments Gains (Losses)

Non-designated derivative instruments are primarily instruments used to hedge foreign currency-denominated assets and liabilities. They are not designated as hedges since there is a natural offset for the re-measurement of the underlying foreign currency-denominated asset or liability.
The following table provides a summary of gains on non-designated derivative instruments:

Net currency gains and losses are included in Other expenses, net and include the mark-to-market adjustments of the derivatives not designated as hedging instruments and the related cost of those derivatives as well as the re-measurement of foreign currency-denominated assets and liabilities. During the three months ended March 31, 2015 and March 31, 2014, currency losses, net were $6 and $1, respectively.

We utilize the income approach to measure the fair value for our derivative assets and liabilities. The income approach uses pricing models that rely on market observable inputs such as yield curves, currency exchange rates and forward prices, and therefore are classified as Level 2.
Fair value for our deferred compensation plan investments in Company-owned life insurance is reflected at cash surrender value. Fair value for our deferred compensation plan investments in mutual funds is based on quoted market prices for actively traded investments similar to those held by the plan. Fair value for deferred compensation plan liabilities is based on the fair value of investments corresponding to employees’ investment selections, based on quoted prices for similar assets in actively traded markets.

The fair value of Short and Long-term debt was estimated based on quoted market prices for publicly-traded securities or on the current rates offered to us for debt of similar maturities. The difference between the fair value and the carrying value represents the theoretical net premium or discount we would pay or receive to retire all debt at such date.

Note 18 – Contingencies and Litigation
Legal Matters
As more fully discussed below, we are involved in a variety of claims, lawsuits, investigations and proceedings concerning securities law, intellectual property law, environmental law, employment law and the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA). We determine whether an estimated loss from a contingency should be accrued by assessing whether a loss is deemed probable and can be reasonably estimated. We assess our potential liability by analyzing our litigation and regulatory matters using available information. We develop our views on estimated losses in consultation with outside counsel handling our defense in these matters, which involves an analysis of potential results, assuming a combination of litigation and settlement strategies. Should developments in any of these matters cause a change in our determination as to an unfavorable outcome and result in the need to recognize a material accrual, or should any of these matters result in a final adverse judgment or be settled for significant amounts, they could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows and financial position in the period or periods in which such change in determination, judgment or settlement occurs.
Brazil Tax and Labor Contingencies
Our Brazilian operations are involved in various litigation matters and have received or been the subject of numerous governmental assessments related to indirect and other taxes, as well as disputes associated with former employees and contract labor. The tax matters, which comprise a significant portion of the total contingencies, principally relate to claims for taxes on the internal transfer of inventory, municipal service taxes on rentals, gross revenue taxes and import taxes and duties. We are disputing these tax matters and intend to vigorously defend our position. Based on the opinion of legal counsel and current reserves for those matters deemed probable of loss, we do not believe that the ultimate resolution of these matters will materially impact our results of operations, financial position or cash flows. The labor matters principally relate to claims made by former employees and contract labor for the equivalent payment of all social security and other related labor benefits, as well as consequential tax claims, as if they were regular employees.
As of March 31, 2015, the total amounts related to the unreserved portion of the tax and labor contingencies, inclusive of any related interest, amounted to approximately $699, with the decrease from December 31, 2014 balance of approximately $817 primarily related to currency partially offset by interest. With respect to the unreserved balance of $699, the majority has been assessed by management as being remote as to the likelihood of ultimately resulting in a loss to the Company. In connection with the above proceedings, customary local regulations may require us to make escrow cash deposits or post other security of up to half of the total amount in dispute. As of March 31, 2015, we had $104 of escrow cash deposits for matters we are disputing, and there are liens on certain Brazilian assets with a net book value of $15 and additional letters of credit of approximately $209, which include associated indexation. Generally, any escrowed amounts would be refundable and any liens would be removed to the extent the matters are resolved in our favor. We routinely assess all these matters as to probability of ultimately incurring a liability against our Brazilian operations and record our best estimate of the ultimate loss in situations where we assess the likelihood of an ultimate loss as probable.
Litigation Against the Company
State of Texas v. Xerox Corporation, Xerox State Healthcare, LLC, and ACS State Healthcare, LLC, a Xerox Corporation: On May 9, 2014, the State of Texas, via the Texas Office of Attorney General (the “State”), filed a lawsuit in the 53rd Judicial District Court of Travis County, Texas. The lawsuit alleges that Xerox Corporation, Xerox State Healthcare, LLC and ACS State Healthcare (collectively “Xerox” or the "Company”) violated the Texas Medicaid Fraud Prevention Act in the administration of its contract with the Texas Department of Health and Human Services (“HHSC”). The State alleges that the Company made false representations of material facts regarding the processes, procedures, implementation and results regarding the prior authorization of orthodontic claims. The State seeks recovery of actual damages, two times the amount of any overpayments made as a result of unlawful acts, civil penalties, pre- and post-judgment interest and all costs and attorneys’ fees. The State references the amount in controversy as exceeding hundreds of millions of dollars. Xerox filed its Answer in June, 2014 denying all allegations. Xerox will continue to vigorously defend itself in this matter. We do not believe it is probable that we will incur a material loss in excess of the amount accrued for this matter. In the course of litigation, we periodically engage in discussions with plaintiff’s counsel for possible resolution of the matter. Should developments cause a change in our determination as to an unfavorable outcome, or result in a final adverse judgment or settlement for a significant amount, there could be a material adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows and financial position in the period in which such change in determination, judgment or settlement occurs.

Xerox 2015 Form 10-Q

Other Contingencies
We have issued or provided the following guarantees as of March 31, 2015:
 
$412 for letters of credit issued to (i) guarantee our performance under certain services contracts; (ii) support certain insurance programs; and (iii) support our obligations related to the Brazil tax and labor contingencies.
$688 for outstanding surety bonds. Certain contracts, primarily those involving public sector customers, require us to provide a surety bond as a guarantee of our performance of contractual obligations.
In general, we would only be liable for the amount of these guarantees in the event of default in our performance of our obligations under each contract; the probability of which we believe is remote. We believe that our capacity in the surety markets as well as under various credit arrangements (including our Credit Facility) is sufficient to allow us to respond to future requests for proposals that require such credit support.
 
We have service arrangements where we service third party student loans in the Federal Family Education Loan program (FFEL) on behalf of various financial institutions. We service these loans for investors under outsourcing arrangements and do not acquire any servicing rights that are transferable by us to a third party. At March 31, 2015, we serviced a FFEL portfolio of approximately 2.6 million loans with an outstanding principal balance of approximately $38.1 billion. Some servicing agreements contain provisions that, under certain circumstances, require us to purchase the loans from the investor if the loan guaranty has been permanently terminated as a result of a loan default caused by our servicing error. If defaults caused by us are cured during an initial period, any obligation we may have to purchase these loans expires. Loans that we purchase may be subsequently cured, the guaranty reinstated and the loans repackaged for sale to third parties. We evaluate our exposure under our purchase obligations on defaulted loans and establish a reserve for potential losses, or default liability reserve, through a charge to the provision for loss on defaulted loans purchased. The reserve is evaluated periodically and adjusted based upon management’s analysis of the historical performance of the defaulted loans. As of March 31, 2015, other current liabilities included reserves of approximately $3 for losses on defaulted loans purchased. In addition to potential purchase obligations arising from servicing errors, various laws and regulations applicable to student loan borrowers could give rise to fines, penalties and other liabilities associated with loan servicing errors.

ITEM 2 — MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) is intended to help the reader understand the results of operations and financial condition of Xerox Corporation. MD&A is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the accompanying notes.
Throughout this document, references to “we,” “our,” the “Company,” and “Xerox” refer to Xerox Corporation and its subsidiaries. References to “Xerox Corporation” refer to the stand-alone parent company and do not include its subsidiaries.
Currency Impact
To understand the trends in the business, we believe that it is helpful to analyze the impact of changes in the translation of foreign currencies into U.S. dollars on revenue and expenses. We refer to this analysis as "constant currency"; “currency impact” or “the impact from currency.” This impact is calculated by translating current period activity in local currency using the comparable prior year period's currency translation rate. This impact is calculated for all countries where the functional currency is the local country currency. Revenues and expenses from our developing market countries (Latin America, Brazil, the Middle East, India, Eurasia and Central-Eastern Europe) are reflected at actual exchange rates for all periods presented, since these countries generally have volatile currency and inflationary environments, and our operations in these countries have historically implemented pricing actions to recover the impact of inflation and devaluation. We do not hedge the translation effect of revenues or expenses denominated in currencies where the local currency is the functional currency.

Overview
First quarter 2015 results were mixed. Several segments of our Services business performed well, but overall Services segment results were below expectations driven by higher implementation costs in certain Health Enterprise platform accounts. Results in Document Technology largely met expectations and included the negative impact of currency as well as higher pension costs.
First quarter 2015 total revenue of $4.5 billion declined 6% from first quarter 2014, which includes a 4% negative impact from currency. Services segment revenues, which represented 56% of total revenue, decreased 3%, including a 4% negative impact from currency. Services segment margin of 7.5% decreased 1.1-percentage points as compared to the prior year primarily due to higher costs associated with our Health Enterprise platform implementations. Document Technology segment revenues decreased by 10%, including a 4% negative impact from currency, and reflected declines in equipment sales and post-sale revenue. Document Technology segment margin of 11.1% decreased 1.1-percentage points as compared to prior year primarily due to the expected increase in pension costs.
Net income from continuing operations attributable to Xerox for the first quarter 2015 and 2014 was $191 million and $266 million, respectively, and included $48 million of after-tax amortization of intangibles in both periods.
Cash flow from operations was $113 million for the first quarter 2015, as compared to $286 million for the first quarter 2014. The $173 million decrease primarily reflects a higher cash usage for working capital (accounts receivable, inventory and accounts payables) primarily due to timing. Cash used in investing activities of $98 million reflects capital expenditures of $95 million and acquisitions of $28 million partially offset by $19 million of proceeds primarily from the sale of assets. Cash used in financing activities was $485 million, reflecting $216 million for share repurchases, $150 million for net payments on debt and $76 million for dividends.
2015 Outlook
For the remainder of 2015, we expect increased currency headwinds, lower signings and acquisition timing to impact revenue; and Services margin to be impacted by increased implementation costs in legacy Health Enterprise accounts. We expect total revenues to be down about 1% for full year 2015, excluding the impact of currency, which we expect to have a 4-percentage point negative impact in 2015.
In our Services segment, we expect revenue growth to be at the lower end of the 2 to 4% range, excluding the impact of currency, reflecting lower signings as well as the timing of new contract ramp and lost contract run-off. Services segment margin is expected to be lower than our previous outlook and in the range of 8.5 to 9.0% due to higher costs related to our Health Enterprise implementations and incremental investments not yet fully offset by productivity gains in the Services segment.
 


Xerox 2015 Form 10-Q
29

 

In our Document Technology segment, we expect revenue to decline 4 to 5%, excluding the impact of currency, which is in-line with our previous outlook. Document Technology segment margin is likewise expected to be in-line with previous outlook, which was a range of 11 to 13%.
Our capital allocation plans for 2015 remain consistent with previous expectations.

CC - See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section for description of Constant Currency
First quarter 2015 Total revenues decreased 6% as compared to first quarter 2014, with a 4-percentage point negative impact from currency. The 4-percentage point negative impact from currency reflects the significant weakening of our major foreign currencies against the U.S. Dollar as compared to the prior year. On a revenue weighted basis, our major European currencies and the Canadian dollar were approximately 17% weaker against the U.S. dollar as compared to the prior year. Revenues from these major foreign currencies comprise approximately 25% of our Consolidated revenues. First quarter 2015 total revenues reflected the following:
Annuity revenue decreased 5% as compared to first quarter 2014, with a 4-percentage point negative impact from currency. Annuity revenue is comprised of the following:
Outsourcing, maintenance and rentals revenue of $3,253 million includes outsourcing revenue within our Services segment and maintenance revenue (including bundled supplies) and rental revenue, both primarily within our Document Technology segment. The decrease of 5% was primarily due to a 4-percentage point negative impact from currency, and a decline in the Document Technology segment mostly offset by growth in the Services segment.
Supplies, paper and other sales of $502 million includes unbundled supplies and other sales, primarily within our Document Technology segment. The decrease of 7% was primarily due to a 2-percentage point negative impact from currency and lower supplies demand primarily resulting from lower equipment sales in prior periods and continued weakness in developing markets.
Financing revenue is generated from financed sale transactions primarily within our Document Technology segment. The decrease of 10% reflects a 7-percentage point negative impact from currency and a lower finance receivable balance as a result of lower originations from decreased equipment sales. See "Sales of Finance Receivables" section for further discussion.
Equipment sales revenue is reported primarily within our Document Technology segment and the Document Outsourcing business within our Services segment. Equipment sales revenue decreased 13% as compared to first quarter 2014, with a 5-percentage point negative impact from currency. The decline was driven by lower entry and production equipment sales and overall price declines that continue to be within our historical range of 5% to 10%.
Additional analysis of the change in revenue for each business segment is included in the “Segment Review” section.

Operating Margin
First quarter 2015 operating margin1 of 7.6% decreased 1.1-percentage points as compared to first quarter 2014, driven by a 0.9-percentage point increase in operating expenses as a percent of revenue and a decline in gross margin of 0.3-percentage points. The operating margin decrease reflects lower revenue and higher costs associated with our Government Healthcare Health Enterprise platform implementations as well as higher year-over-year pension expense and settlement losses (collectively referred to as "pension expense"). These negative impacts were partially offset by benefits from restructuring and productivity improvements and moderating net currency benefits primarily from yen-based purchases. We continue to expect higher year-over-year pension expense throughout 2015 as a result of changes in the discount rate and the estimated impact on settlement losses.
(1)Refer to the Operating Margin reconciliation table in the Non-GAAP Financial Measures section.
Gross Margins
First quarter 2015 gross margin of 31.2% decreased 0.3-percentage points as compared to first quarter 2014. Document Technology gross margin increased 0.8-percentage points while Services gross margin decreased 0.3-percentage points as compared to first quarter 2014. These impacts combined with a higher proportion of our revenue from Services (which historically has a lower gross margin) resulted in a modest reduction in overall gross margin.
Additional analysis of the change in gross margin for each business segment is included in the "Segment Review" section.

First quarter 2015 RD&E as a percentage of revenue of 3.2% increased 0.2-percentage points from first quarter 2014. This increase was due primarily to the total company revenue decline and was only partially offset by benefits from the higher mix of Services revenue (which historically has lower RD&E as a percentage of revenue) and modest restructuring and productivity improvements.
    
RD&E of $141 million was $4 million lower than first quarter 2014, reflecting the impact of restructuring and productivity improvements. Innovation at Xerox is a core strength, and we continue to invest at levels that enhance our competitiveness, particularly in Services, color and software. R&D is strategically coordinated with Fuji Xerox.
Selling, Administrative and General Expenses (SAG)
SAG as a percentage of revenue of 20.5% increased 0.7-percentage points from first quarter 2014. The increase was driven by increased investments in Services and higher pension and bad debt expense while total company revenue declined, partially offset by the higher mix of Services revenue (which historically has lower SAG as a percentage of revenue) and restructuring and productivity improvements.

Xerox 2015 Form 10-Q

SAG of $915 million was $30 million lower than first quarter 2014. SAG expenses include a $36 million favorable impact from currency and reflect the following:
$34 million decrease in selling expenses.
$2 million decrease in general and administrative expenses.
$6 million increase in bad debt expense as the first quarter 2014 benefit from a prior period write-off recovery did not repeat. First quarter 2015 bad debt expense remained at less than one percent of receivables.

Restructuring and Asset Impairment Charges
During first quarter 2015, we recorded net restructuring and asset impairment charges of $14 million, which includes $21 million of severance costs related to headcount reductions of approximately 580 employees worldwide, and $1 million of lease cancellation costs. These costs were partially offset by $8 million of net reversals for changes in estimated reserves from prior period initiatives.

During first quarter 2014, we recorded net restructuring and asset impairment charges of $26 million, which included $27 million of severance costs related to headcount reductions of approximately 1,200 employees worldwide, $1 million of lease cancellation costs and $4 million of asset impairments. These costs were partially offset by $6 million of net reversals for changes in estimated reserves from prior period initiatives.
The restructuring reserve balance as of March 31, 2015 for all programs was $74 million, of which $73 million is expected to be spent over the next twelve months.
We expect to incur additional restructuring charges of approximately $0.02 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2015, for actions and initiatives which have not yet been finalized.

Refer to Note 10 - Restructuring Programs, in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding our restructuring programs.
Worldwide Employment
Worldwide employment of approximately 145,600 at March 31, 2015 decreased approximately 1,900 from December 31, 2014, primarily due to the impact of restructuring actions and productivity improvements. Total headcount includes approximately 9,800 employees who are expected to transfer to Atos upon closure of the sale of our ITO business.

Non-Financing Interest Expense: First quarter 2015 non-financing interest expense of $56 million was $7 million lower than first quarter 2014. When non-financing interest expense is combined with financing interest expense (cost of financing), total company interest expense declined by $10 million from first quarter 2014, driven by a lower average cost of debt and a lower average debt balance.
Currency losses, net: First quarter 2015 currency losses are primarily related to volatility in worldwide exchange rates.
Gains on Sales of Businesses and Assets: During first quarter 2015, we sold surplus technology assets and recognized a $14 million gain on the sale. During first quarter 2014, we sold a surplus facility in Latin America and recognized a $30 million gain on the sale.
Income Taxes

First quarter 2015 effective tax rate was 19.4%. On an adjusted basis1, first quarter 2015 tax rate was 24.5%, which was lower than the U.S. statutory tax rate primarily due to foreign tax credits resulting from anticipated dividends from our foreign subsidiaries and the geographical mix of profits.

First quarter 2014 effective tax rate was 15.5%. On an adjusted basis1, first quarter 2014 tax rate was 20.4%, which was lower than the U.S. statutory tax rate primarily due to a net benefit of $33 million resulting from the redetermination of certain unrecognized tax positions upon conclusion of several audits as well as foreign tax credits from anticipated dividends.

Xerox operations are widely dispersed. The statutory tax rate in most non-U.S. jurisdictions is lower than the combined U.S. and state tax rate. The amount of income subject to these lower foreign rates relative to the amount of U.S. income will impact our effective tax rate. However, no one country outside of the U.S. is a significant factor to our overall effective tax rate. Certain foreign income is subject to U.S. tax net of any available foreign tax credits. Our full-year effective tax rate includes a benefit of approximately 12-percentage points from these non-U.S. operations, which is slightly higher than 2014 due to the geographical mix of profits.

Our effective tax rate is based on nonrecurring events as well as recurring factors, including the taxation of foreign income. In addition, our effective tax rate will change based on discrete or other nonrecurring events that may not be predictable. Excluding the effects of intangibles amortization, we anticipate that our effective tax rate for second quarter and full year 2015 will be approximately 25% to 27%.

Equity in net income of unconsolidated affiliates primarily reflects our 25% share of Fuji Xerox net income. First quarter 2015 equity income was $34 million, a decrease of $8 million compared to first quarter 2014. The decrease is primarily driven by translation currency impacts. First quarter 2015 and 2014 equity income includes $1 million and $3 million, respectively, of charges related to our share of Fuji Xerox after-tax restructuring.
Net Income from Continuing Operations
First quarter 2015 net income from continuing operations attributable to Xerox was $191 million, or $0.16 per diluted share. On an adjusted basis1, net income from continuing operations attributable to Xerox was $239 million, or $0.21 per diluted share. First quarter 2015 adjustments to net income reflect the amortization of intangible assets.
First quarter 2014 net income from continuing operations attributable to Xerox was $266 million, or $0.22 per diluted share. On an adjusted basis1, net income from continuing operations attributable to Xerox was $314 million, or $0.26 per diluted share. First quarter 2014 adjustments to net income reflect the amortization of intangible assets.

Other Comprehensive (Loss) Income
First quarter 2015 Other comprehensive loss attributable to Xerox was $381 million as compared to a $59 million loss in the first quarter 2014. The increased loss of $322 million was primarily due to losses of $509 million in the first quarter 2015 from the translation of our foreign currency denominated net assets as compared to a loss of $1 million in the first quarter 2014. The translation losses in first quarter 2015 are primarily the result of the significant weakening of our major foreign currencies as compared to the U.S. Dollar. Our major foreign currencies weakened during first quarter 2015 as follows: Euro - 11%, Canadian Dollar - 8% and Pound Sterling - 5%. The translation losses were partially offset by net gains of $98 million in the first quarter 2015 from changes in our defined benefit plans as compared to losses of $84 million in the first quarter 2014.
Refer to Note 14 - Employee Benefit Plans, in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, for additional information regarding net changes in our defined benefit plans and related losses and gains.

First quarter 2015 Services revenue of $2,514 million was 56% of total revenue and decreased 3% from first quarter 2014, with a 4-percentage point negative impact from currency.
BPO revenue decreased 2% with a 3-percentage point negative impact from currency, and represented 69% of total Services revenue. Growth from acquisitions and organic growth in several lines of business was partially offset by a combined 4.0-percentage point anticipated decline from the run-off of the student loan business and the Texas Medicaid contract. This negative year-over-year impact pressured total Services revenue growth by 2.7-percentage points and will dissipate in the second half of 2015.
In first quarter 2015, BPO revenue mix across the major business areas was as follows: commercial business groups (excluding healthcare) - 45%; public sector - 27%; commercial healthcare - 15%; and government healthcare - 13%.
DO revenue decreased 5% with a 7-percentage point negative impact from currency, and represented 31% of total Services revenue. Growth in the partner print services offerings was partially offset by declines in non-U.S. markets due to contract run-off and new contract ramp timing.

We anticipate that the Services segment revenue growth will improve in the second half of 2015, as we lap the impact of the 2014 loss of the Texas Medicaid contract and the loss of the student loan business and we begin to ramp the New York MMIS and the pending Florida tolling arrangements. See "Signings" section for additional information regarding these contracts.

Xerox 2015 Form 10-Q

Segment Margin

First quarter 2015 Services segment margin of 7.5% decreased 1.1-percentage points from first quarter 2014, driven by a modest decline in gross margin and increased SAG. Operating margins improved across Document Outsourcing and several BPO lines of business. Lower revenue and increased expenses associated with our Government Healthcare Health Enterprise platform implementations, targeted investments in go-to-market and leadership resources and increased compensation and benefit expenses, combined with price declines that were consistent with prior periods, more than offset productivity improvements and restructuring benefits.
Metrics
Signings: Signings are defined as estimated future revenues from contracts signed during the period, including renewals of existing contracts. First quarter 2015 Services signings were $2.4 billion in Total Contract Value (TCV).
Signings were as follows:

Total Signings
 
$
2.4


Signings decreased 13% from first quarter 2014. The decrease reflects a decline in new business signings and a measurably lower level of renewal decision opportunities. Signings on a trailing twelve month (TTM) basis decreased 10% from the comparable prior year period. New business annual recurring revenue (ARR) and non-recurring revenue (NRR) decreased 26% from first quarter 2014 and decreased 17% on a TTM basis. The above DO signings amount does not include signings from our growing partner print services offerings. As of March 31, 2015, there were two significant new business opportunities with combined TCV in excess of $1 billion that were awarded in 2014 but were not signed, and approved, the New York MMIS and Florida Tolling contracts. The New York MMIS contract was finalized in April 2015, and we expect the Florida Tolling contract to be finalized in second quarter 2015.
Note: TCV is the estimated total contractual revenue related to future contracts in the pipeline or signed contracts, as applicable.
Renewal Rate (Total Services): Renewal rate is defined as the ARR on contracts that are renewed during the period as a percentage of ARR on all contracts for which a renewal decision was made during the period. First quarter 2015 contract renewal rate for BPO and DO contracts was 91%, which was modestly above our target range of 85%-90%. Total renewal decision opportunities in the quarter were measurably below first quarter 2014.
Pipeline: The sales pipeline includes the TCV of new business opportunities that potentially could be contracted within the next six months and excludes business opportunities with estimated annual recurring revenue in excess of $100 million. Our total Services sales pipeline declined 7% from fourth quarter 2014. Due to the fourth quarter 2014 pipeline adjustments that removed the ITO business, reflected the realignment of our Services go-to-market resources into industry focused business groups and revised the pipeline qualification criteria, we will be comparing against the fourth quarter 2014 pipeline throughout 2015.

First quarter 2015 Document Technology revenue of $1,830 million decreased 10% from first quarter 2014, with a 4-percentage point negative impact from currency. Document Technology revenues exclude Document Outsourcing. Inclusive of Document Outsourcing, first quarter 2015 aggregate document-related revenue decreased 9% from first quarter 2014, with a 5-percentage point negative impact from currency. Document Technology segment revenue results included the following:
Equipment sales revenue decreased by 12% from first quarter 2014 with a 4-percentage point negative impact from currency. The decrease in equipment sales reflects lower sales of entry and production products and overall price declines that were within our historical range of 5% to 10%.
Annuity revenue decreased by 10% from first quarter 2014, including a 5-percentage point negative impact from currency. The Annuity revenue reflects a modest decline in total pages, continued migration of customers to our partner print services offering (included in our Services segment), lower supplies demand and reduced financing revenue reflecting a lower finance receivables balance due to lower originations.

Document Technology revenue mix was 57% mid-range, 23% high-end and 20% entry, consistent with recent quarters.
Overall our Document Technology business performance was in-line with expectations. However, total revenue declines are expected to remain at the mid-single digit level for this segment, as we continue to transform the company from a technology-based equipment company to a document outsourcing services-based entity and customers continue to migrate their business to more services-based offerings. These services-based offerings are reported within our Services segment. This business is also impacted by price and page declines. We expect to mitigate these declines through continued focus on productivity and cost improvements.
Segment Margin
First quarter 2015 Document Technology segment margin of 11.1% decreased by 1.1-percentage points from first quarter 2014, including a 0.8-percentage point increase in gross margin. The gross margin improvement reflects a moderating net currency benefit primarily driven from yen-based purchases, restructuring and cost initiative benefits and favorable revenue mix that more than offset consistent price declines and the anticipated increase in pension costs. SAG increased as a percent of revenue as higher pension and bad debt expense and the impact of overall lower revenues more than offset benefits from restructuring and productivity improvements.
Total Installs (Document Technology and Document Outsourcing1)
Install activity includes installations for Document Outsourcing and Xerox-branded products shipped to Global Imaging Systems. Details by product groups is shown below:
Installs for the first quarter 2015:
Entry:
Higher declines in developing markets, including Eurasia, are more than offsetting the benefits of new product launches and other Entry go-to-market investments over the last several quarters.
1% increase in color printers.
30% decrease in color multifunction devices.
22% decrease in black-and-white multifunction devices.

Mid-Range:
1% decrease in mid-range color is consistent with recent quarters.
1% decrease in mid-range black-and-white is consistent with recent quarters.

High-End:
8% increase in high-end color systems is driven primarily by the new Versant product. Excluding Fuji Xerox digital front-end sales, high-end color installs decreased 26% due to timing of customer orders and product launches.
5% decrease in high-end black-and-white systems reflects the overall market dynamics in this segment.
Note: Descriptions of “Entry”, “Mid-range” and “High-end” are defined in Note 3 - Segment Reporting, in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Other
Revenue
First quarter 2015 Other revenue of $125 million decreased 12% from first quarter 2014, with a 1-percentage point negative impact from currency. The decrease is due primarily to lower IT and networking hardware and services sales, and modestly lower paper and wide-format sales. Total paper revenue (all within developing markets) comprised over 40% of Other segment revenue in the quarter.
 
Segment Loss
First quarter 2015 Other segment loss of $62 million increased $12 million from first quarter 2014, primarily driven by lower gains on asset sales.
Non-financing interest expense, as well as all Other expenses, net (excluding Deferred compensation investment gains) are reported within the Other segment.

Capital Resources and Liquidity
As of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, total cash and cash equivalents were $872 million and $1,411 million, respectively. The decrease in cash from year-end reflects the net repayment of debt, share repurchases and investments in capital and acquisitions. At March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, Commercial Paper Program borrowings were $354 million and $150 million, respectively, and there were no borrowings for either period under our letters of credit under our $2 billion Credit Facility.
We continue to expect that cash flows from operations to be between $1.7 and $1.9 billion in 2015.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities was $113 million in first quarter 2015. The $173 million decrease in operating cash from first quarter 2014 was primarily due to the following:
$79 million decrease in pre-tax income before depreciation and amortization, gain on sales of businesses and assets and restructuring.
$66 million decrease primarily due to the timing of purchases, the impact from lower than expected sales volume in certain product lines and post sale consumables, as well as higher levels of in transit inventory.
$48 million decrease from accounts receivable primarily due to the timing of collections.
$25 million decrease from accounts payable and accrued compensation primarily related to the timing of accounts payable payments.
$30 million increase from finance receivables primarily related to a lower impact from prior period sales of receivables. See "Sales of Finance Receivables" for further discussion.
$14 million increase from lower spending from product software and up-front costs.
Cash flow from operations in first quarter 2015 and 2014 include a use of cash of $13 million and $32 million,
respectively, related to our ITO business.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities was $98 million in first quarter 2015. The $22 million decrease in the use of cash from first quarter 2014 was primarily due to the following:

Xerox 2015 Form 10-Q
38

 

$26 million decrease in acquisitions. First quarter 2015 reflects the acquisition of Intrepid Learning Solutions, Inc. for $28 million while first quarter 2014 reflects the acquisition of Invoco Holding GmbH for $54 million.
$14 million lower proceeds from the sale of assets and businesses. First quarter 2014 included a sale of a surplus facility in Latin America for $32 million while first quarter 2015 reflects a few smaller transactions.

Capital expenditures (including internal use software) in first quarter 2015 and 2014 include approximately $20 million in each year related to our ITO business.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities was $485 million in first quarter 2015. The $136 million increase in the use of cash from first quarter 2014 was primarily due to the following:
$154 million increase from net debt activity primarily due to the first quarter 2015 payment of $1 billion on Senior Notes offset by net proceeds of $648 million from the issuance of Senior Notes and an increase of $204 million in Commercial Paper.
$38 million increase due to higher distributions to noncontrolling interests.

Hedge accounting requires hedged debt instruments to be reported inclusive of any fair value adjustment.

Refer to Note 11 - Debt in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Total debt at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 excludes $69 million and $75 million, respectively, of capital lease obligations related to our ITO business, which is held for sale and being reported as a discontinued operation at March 31, 2015. These obligations are expected to be assumed by the purchaser of the ITO business. Refer to Note 5 - Divestitures in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Sales of Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable sales arrangements are utilized in the normal course of business as part of our cash and liquidity management. We have facilities in the U.S., Canada and several countries in Europe that enable us to sell to third-parties, on an on-going basis, certain accounts receivables without recourse. The accounts receivables sold are generally short-term trade receivables with payment due dates of less than 60 days.

Sales of Finance Receivables
In 2013 and 2012, we transferred our entire interest in certain groups of lease finance receivables to third-party entities. The transfers were accounted for as sales and resulted in the de-recognition of lease receivables with a net carrying value of $676 million in 2013 and $682 million in 2012, respectively. We continue to service the sold receivables and record servicing fee income over the expected life of the associated receivables.
The net impact on operating cash flows from these transactions for the periods presented is summarized below:

Financial Risk Management
We are exposed to market risk from changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates, which could affect operating results, financial position and cash flows. We manage our exposure to these market risks through our regular operating and financing activities and, when appropriate, through the use of derivative financial instruments. These derivative financial instruments are utilized to hedge economic exposures, as well as to reduce earnings and cash flow volatility resulting from shifts in market rates. We enter into limited types of derivative contracts, including interest rate swap agreements, foreign currency spot, forward and swap contracts and net purchased foreign currency options to manage interest rate and foreign currency exposures. Our primary foreign currency market exposures include the Yen, Euro and Pound Sterling. The fair market values of all our derivative contracts change with fluctuations in interest rates and/or currency rates and are designed so that any changes in their values are offset by changes in the values of the underlying exposures. Derivative financial instruments are held solely as risk management tools and not for trading or speculative purposes.
We are required to recognize all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities at fair value in the balance sheet. As permitted, certain of these derivative contracts have been designated for hedge accounting treatment. Certain of our derivatives that do not qualify for hedge accounting are effective as economic hedges. These derivative contracts are likewise required to be recognized each period at fair value and therefore do result in some level of volatility. The level of volatility will vary with the type and amount of derivative hedges outstanding, as well as fluctuations in the currency and interest rate markets during the period. The related cash flow impacts of all of our derivative activities are reflected as cash flows from operating activities.
By their nature, all derivative instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of market and credit risk. The market risk associated with these instruments resulting from currency exchange and interest rate movements is expected to offset the market risk of the underlying transactions, assets and liabilities being hedged. We do not believe there is significant risk of loss in the event of non-performance by the counterparties associated with these instruments because these transactions are executed with a diversified group of major financial institutions. Further, our policy is to deal with counterparties having a minimum investment grade or better credit rating. Credit risk is managed through the continuous monitoring of exposures to such counterparties.
The current market events have not required us to materially modify or change our financial risk management strategies with respect to our exposures to interest rate and foreign currency risk. Refer to Note 12 – Financial Instruments in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion and information on our financial risk management strategies.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We have reported our financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). In addition, we have discussed the non-GAAP measures described below. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP are set forth below.
These non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as a substitute for, the Company’s reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Adjusted Earnings Measures
To better understand the trends in our business, we believe it is necessary to adjust the following amounts determined in accordance with GAAP to exclude the effects of certain items as well as their related income tax effects.
Net income and Earnings per share (EPS)
Effective tax rate
Our adjustments are limited to the amortization of intangible assets, which is driven by our acquisition activity which can vary in size, nature and timing as compared to other companies within our industry and from period to period. Accordingly, due to the incomparability of acquisition activity among companies and from period to period, we believe exclusion of the amortization associated with intangible assets acquired through our acquisitions allows investors to better compare and understand our results. The use of intangible assets contributed to our revenues earned during the periods presented and will contribute to our future period revenues as well. Amortization of intangible assets will recur in future periods.

Xerox 2015 Form 10-Q
42

 

We also calculate and utilize an operating income and margin earnings measure by adjusting our pre-tax income and margin amounts to exclude certain items. In addition to the amortization of intangible assets, operating income and margin also exclude Other expenses, net as well as Restructuring and asset impairment charges. Other expenses, net is primarily comprised of non-financing interest expense and other non-operating costs and expenses. Restructuring and asset impairment charges consist of costs primarily related to severance and benefits for employees pursuant to formal restructuring and workforce reduction plans. Such charges are expected to yield future benefits and savings with respect to our operational performance. We exclude these amounts in order to evaluate our current and past operating performance and to better understand the expected future trends in our business.
Constant Currency (CC)
Refer to "Currency Impact" for a discussion of this measure and its use in our analysis of revenue growth.
Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide an additional means of analyzing the current periods’ results against the corresponding prior periods’ results. However, the following non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as a substitute for, the Company’s reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Our non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP measures and should be read only in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. Our management regularly uses our supplemental non-GAAP financial measures internally to understand, manage and evaluate our business and make operating decisions. These non-GAAP measures are among the primary factors management uses in planning for and forecasting future periods. Compensation of our executives is based in part on the performance of our business based on these non-GAAP measures.

A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures and the most directly comparable measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP are set forth on the following tables:
