Significant accounting policies<div style="text-align:justify"> The accounting policies noted below were applied in the preparation of the accompanying financial statements of the Company and are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.</div><div> </div><div style="text-align:justify">(a) Basis of consolidation</div><div> </div><div style="text-align:justify"> The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and all of its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany profits, transactions and account balances have been eliminated. The results of subsidiary undertakings acquired in the period are included in the Consolidated Statement of Operations from the date of acquisition.</div><div> </div><div style="text-align:justify">(b) Use of estimates</div><div> </div><div style="text-align:justify"> The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The principal management estimates and judgments used in preparing the financial statements relate to revenue recognition and taxation.</div><div> </div><div style="text-align:justify">(c) Revenue recognition</div><div style="text-align:justify"> </div><div style="text-align:justify"> The Company primarily earns revenues by providing a number of different services to its customers. These services, which are integral elements of the clinical development process, include clinical trials management, consulting, contract staffing, and laboratory services. Contracts range in duration from a number of months to several years. </div><div style="text-align:justify"> </div><div style="text-align:justify"> ASC 606 requires application of five steps: (1) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligation in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies the performance obligation(s). </div><div style="text-align:justify"> </div><div style="text-align:justify">Clinical trial service revenue</div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:36pt">A clinical trial service is a single performance obligation satisfied over time i.e. the full-service obligation in respect of a clinical trial (including those services performed by investigators and other parties) is considered a single performance obligation. Promises offered to the customer are not distinct within the context of the contract. We have concluded that ICON is the contract principal in respect of both direct services and in the use of third parties (principally investigator services) that support the clinical research project. The transaction price is determined by reference to the contract or change order value (total service revenue and pass-through/ reimbursable expenses) adjusted to reflect a realizable contract value. Revenue is recognized as the single performance obligation is satisfied. The progress towards completion for clinical service contracts is measured based on an input measure being total project costs incurred (inclusive of third party costs) at each reporting period as a percentage of forecasted total project costs.</div><div style="text-align:justify">Contracting services revenue</div><div style="text-align:justify"> The Company has availed of the practical expedient which results in recognition of revenue on a right to invoice basis.

Revenue for laboratory services is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring products or services. Where contracts with customers contain multiple performance obligations, the transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation based on the estimated relative selling price of the promised good or service. Service revenue is recognized over time as the services are delivered to the customer based on the extent of progress towards completion of the performance obligation. The determination of the methodology to measure progress requires judgment and is based on the nature of services provided. This requires an assessment of the transfer of value to the customer. The right to invoice measure of progress is generally related to rate per unit contracts, as the extent of progress towards completion is measured based on discrete service or time-based increments, such as samples tested or labor hours incurred. Revenue is recorded in the amount invoiced since that amounts corresponds to the value of the Company's performance and the transfer of value to the customer. </div><div style="text-align:justify"> </div><div style="text-align:justify">Commissions</div><div style="text-align:justify"> Incremental costs of obtaining a contract are recognized as an asset on the Consolidated Balance Sheet in respect of those contracts that exceed one year.

Where a business combination agreement provides for an adjustment to the cost of the acquisition which is contingent upon future events, the amount of the estimated adjustment is recognized at the acquisition date at the fair value of the contingent consideration. Any changes to this estimate outside the measurement period will depend on the classification of the contingent consideration. If the contingent consideration is classified as equity it shall not be re-measured and the settlement shall be accounted for within equity.

Goodwill primarily comprises acquired workforce in place which does not qualify for recognition as an asset apart from goodwill. Goodwill is stated net of any provision for impairment. The Company tests goodwill annually for any impairments or whenever events occur which may indicate impairment. The Company applied the provisions of ASU 2017-04 'Intangibles - Goodwill and Other: Simplifying the test for goodwill impairment' with effect from January 1, 2018. Under the amendment, the Company was required to perform its annual goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An impairment charge would be recognized for any amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit's fair value up to the amount of existing goodwill. The amendment allows an entity to perform a qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative impairment test is necessary. No impairment was recognized as a result of the impairment testing carried out for the years ended December 31, 2020, December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018.</div><div style="margin-bottom:9pt;text-align:justify">(k) Intangible assets</div><div style="margin-bottom:9pt;text-align:justify"> Intangible assets are amortized on a straight line basis over their estimated useful life.</div><div style="margin-bottom:9pt;text-align:justify">(l) Cash and cash equivalents</div><div style="text-align:justify"> Cash and cash equivalents include cash and highly liquid investments with initial maturities of three months or less and are stated at cost, which approximates market value.</div><div> </div><div style="text-align:justify">(m) Investments in debt, equity and other</div><div> </div><div style="text-align:justify">Available for sale investments</div><div style="text-align:justify"> </div><div style="text-align:justify"> The Company classifies short-term investments as available for sale in accordance with the terms of ASC 320 'Investments - Debt and Equity Securities'.

Effective from January 1, 2018, the Company concluded that the interests held at December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2020 qualify for the NAV practical expedient in ASC 820 'Fair value measurements and disclosures'.

Historical credit loss experience provides the basis for the estimation of expected credit losses. The Company's receivables and unbilled services are predominantly due from large and mid-tier pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that share similar risk characteristics.

The lease accounting policy applied in preparation of the results for the year ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2020 therefore reflect application of ASC 842. The Company adopted the standard using the cumulative-effect adjustment approach. Under this transition method, the Company applied the ASC 842 as at the date of initial application (i.e. January 1, 2019), without restatement of comparative period amounts. The cumulative effect of applying the standard is recorded as an adjustment to the opening consolidated balance sheet as at the date of initial application (see note 24 - Impact of new accounting pronouncements for further details). The comparative information for the year ended December 31, 2018 has not been adjusted and therefore continues to be reported under ASC 840 'Leases' (ASC 840). </div><div style="margin-bottom:9pt;text-align:justify"> ASC 842 requires lessees to recognize the rights and obligations resulting from virtually all leases on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as right-of-use (ROU) assets with corresponding lease liabilities. </div><div style="margin-bottom:9pt;text-align:justify"> The most significant impact of application of the standard for the Company related to the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheet for operating leases for certain property, vehicles and equipment. Prior to application of ASC 842, costs in respect of operating leases were charged to the Consolidated Statements of Operations on a straight-line basis over the lease term. </div><div style="margin-bottom:9pt;text-align:justify"> Pursuant to certain practical expedients available as part of adopting ASC 842, ICON did not reassess whether existing or expired supplier contracts are or contain leases, the classification of existing or expired leases, or whether unamortized initial direct costs meet the new definition of initial direct costs under ASC 842. Additionally, the Company elected to use hindsight in determining the lease term and in assessing impairment of ROU assets, if any. </div><div style="margin-bottom:9pt;text-align:justify"> The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Finance leases, if any, are depreciated on the same basis as property, plant and equipment. At December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company did not account for any leases as finance leases. </div><div style="margin-bottom:9pt;text-align:justify"> Operating leases are included in operating right-of-use assets, other liabilities and non-current operating lease liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheet with the lease charge recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date or date of transition. Our lease terms may also include options to extend or terminate. The Company actively reviews options to extend or terminate leases and adjusts the ROU asset and lease liability when it is reasonably certain the option will be exercised. The ROU asset is adjusted for any prepayments made at the date of commencement and any initial direct costs incurred. As most of the Company's leases do not provide an implicit rate, the discount rate used is based on the rate of traded corporate bonds available at the commencement date adjusted for country risk, liquidity and lease term.</div><div style="text-align:justify"> Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the depreciable lives of the corresponding fixed assets or the lease term including any applicable renewals. Certain property leases include variable lease payments resulting from periodic rent increases based on an index which cannot be reasonably estimated at the lease commencement date. These costs are expensed as incurred on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. </div><div style="text-align:justify"> </div><div style="text-align:justify"> The Company accounts for lease and non-lease components separately with lease components flowing through the Consolidated Balance Sheet and non-lease components expensed directly to the Consolidated Statements of Operations. </div><div style="text-align:justify"> </div><div style="text-align:justify"> In some cases, the Company enters into sublease agreements and becomes both a lessee and a lessor for the same underlying asset.

Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and for operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which these temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance to the amount more likely than not to be realized. The Company recognizes the effect of income tax positions only if those positions will more likely than not be sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement. Interest and penalties related to income taxes are included in income tax expense and classified with the related liability on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Company accounts for the impact of GILTI (“global intangible low-taxed income”) as a period item in the period it arises and has therefore not provided for deferred taxes in respect of this item.</div><div> </div><div style="text-align:justify">(s) Government grants</div><div> </div><div style="text-align:justify"> Government grants received relating to capital expenditures are shown by deducting the grant from the asset's carrying amount and crediting them to income on a basis consistent with the depreciation policy of the relevant assets. Grants relating to categories of operating expenditures are shown as deferred income and credited to income in the period in which the expenditure to which they relate is charged.</div><div> </div><div style="text-align:justify"> Under the grant agreements amounts received may become repayable in full should certain circumstances specified within the grant agreements occur, including downsizing by the Company, disposing of the related assets, ceasing to carry on its business or the appointment of a receiver over any of its assets.

Research and development credits are generally recognized as a reduction of income tax expense. However, certain tax jurisdictions provide refundable credits that are not wholly dependent on the Company's ongoing income tax status or income tax position. In these circumstances the benefit of these credits is not recorded as a reduction to income tax expense, but rather as a reduction of operating expenditure.</div><div style="text-align:justify"> </div><div>(u) Pension costs</div><div> </div><div style="text-align:justify"> The Company contributes to defined contribution plans covering all eligible employees.

Included in the purchase agreement were put and call option arrangements with the noncontrolling interest holders that required (put option) or enabled (call option) the Company to purchase the remaining minority ownership at a future date. The option was accounted for as temporary equity, which is presented separately as redeemable noncontrolling interest on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. This classification reflects the assessment that the instruments are contingently redeemable in accordance with ASC 480-10-S99 'Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity'.

The change in the option's redemption value is recorded against retained earnings. In a computation of earnings per share, the accretion of redeemable noncontrolling interests to their redemption value is a reduction of net income attributable to the Group. Basic and diluted net income per ordinary share attributable to the Group includes the adjustment to reflect the accretion of the noncontrolling interest to its redemption value until the redemption of the noncontrolling interest on March 9, 2020. </div><div style="margin-bottom:9pt;text-align:justify">(w) Net income per ordinary share</div><div style="text-align:justify"> Basic net income per ordinary share attributable to the Company has been computed by dividing net income available to ordinary shareholders by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per ordinary share is computed by adjusting the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period for all potentially dilutive ordinary shares outstanding during the period and adjusting net income for any changes in income or loss that would result from the conversion of such potential ordinary shares. There is no difference in net income used for basic and diluted net income per ordinary share.

Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured at the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount of the asset or fair value less selling costs.</div><div style="text-align:justify"> </div><div style="text-align:justify">(z) Derivative financial instruments</div><div> </div><div style="text-align:justify"> We enter into transactions in the normal course of business using various financial instruments in order to hedge against exposure to fluctuating exchange and interest rates.

A designated hedge of the exposure to changes in fair value of an asset or a liability is referred to as a fair value hedge. The criterion for designating a derivative as a hedge includes the assessment of the instrument's effectiveness in risk reduction, matching of the derivative instrument to its underlying transaction and the probability that the underlying transaction will occur. For derivatives with cash flow hedge accounting designation, we report the gain or loss from the effective portion of the hedge as a component of Other Comprehensive Income and reclassify it into earnings in the same period or periods in which the hedged transaction affects earnings and within the same Consolidated Statement of Operations line item as the impact of the hedged transaction. For derivatives with fair value hedge accounting designation, we recognize gains or losses from the change in fair value of these derivatives, as well as the offsetting change in the fair value of the underlying hedged item, in earnings.

Basis of consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and all of its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany profits, transactions and account balances have been eliminated. The results of subsidiary undertakings acquired in the period are included in the Consolidated Statement of Operations from the date of acquisition.

Use of estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The principal management estimates and judgments used in preparing the financial statements relate to revenue recognition and taxation.

Revenue recognition<div style="text-align:justify"> The Company primarily earns revenues by providing a number of different services to its customers. These services, which are integral elements of the clinical development process, include clinical trials management, consulting, contract staffing, and laboratory services. Contracts range in duration from a number of months to several years. </div><div style="text-align:justify"> </div><div style="text-align:justify"> ASC 606 requires application of five steps: (1) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligation in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies the performance obligation(s). </div><div style="text-align:justify"> </div><div style="text-align:justify">Clinical trial service revenue</div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:36pt">A clinical trial service is a single performance obligation satisfied over time i.e. the full-service obligation in respect of a clinical trial (including those services performed by investigators and other parties) is considered a single performance obligation. Promises offered to the customer are not distinct within the context of the contract. We have concluded that ICON is the contract principal in respect of both direct services and in the use of third parties (principally investigator services) that support the clinical research project. The transaction price is determined by reference to the contract or change order value (total service revenue and pass-through/ reimbursable expenses) adjusted to reflect a realizable contract value. Revenue is recognized as the single performance obligation is satisfied. The progress towards completion for clinical service contracts is measured based on an input measure being total project costs incurred (inclusive of third party costs) at each reporting period as a percentage of forecasted total project costs.</div><div style="text-align:justify">Contracting services revenue</div><div style="text-align:justify"> The Company has availed of the practical expedient which results in recognition of revenue on a right to invoice basis.

Revenue for laboratory services is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring products or services. Where contracts with customers contain multiple performance obligations, the transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation based on the estimated relative selling price of the promised good or service. Service revenue is recognized over time as the services are delivered to the customer based on the extent of progress towards completion of the performance obligation. The determination of the methodology to measure progress requires judgment and is based on the nature of services provided. This requires an assessment of the transfer of value to the customer. The right to invoice measure of progress is generally related to rate per unit contracts, as the extent of progress towards completion is measured based on discrete service or time-based increments, such as samples tested or labor hours incurred. Revenue is recorded in the amount invoiced since that amounts corresponds to the value of the Company's performance and the transfer of value to the customer. </div><div style="text-align:justify"> </div><div style="text-align:justify">Commissions</div><div style="text-align:justify"> Incremental costs of obtaining a contract are recognized as an asset on the Consolidated Balance Sheet in respect of those contracts that exceed one year.

Foreign currencies and translation of subsidiaries ICON plc's financial statements are prepared in United States dollars. Transactions in currencies other than the functional currency of the individual entities within the ICON Group are recorded at the rate ruling at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the individual entities within the ICON Group are translated into the functional currency of that entity at exchange rates prevailing at the Balance Sheet date. Adjustments resulting from these translations are charged or credited to income.The financial statements of subsidiaries with other functional currencies are translated at period end rates for the Consolidated Balance Sheets and average rates for the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Translation gains and losses arising are reported as a movement on accumulated other comprehensive income. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are reported in other comprehensive income rather than through income where the foreign currency transaction is 'long-term investment' in nature i.e. settlement is not planned or anticipated in the foreseeable future.

Business combinations<div style="text-align:justify"> The cost of a business combination is measured as the aggregate of the fair values at the date of exchange of assets given, liabilities incurred or assumed and equity instruments issued in exchange for control. Where a business combination agreement provides for an adjustment to the cost of the acquisition which is contingent upon future events, the amount of the estimated adjustment is recognized at the acquisition date at the fair value of the contingent consideration. Any changes to this estimate outside the measurement period will depend on the classification of the contingent consideration. If the contingent consideration is classified as equity it shall not be re-measured and the settlement shall be accounted for within equity. If the contingent consideration is classified as a liability any adjustments will be accounted for through the Consolidated Statement of Operations or Other Comprehensive Income depending on whether the liability is considered a financial instrument.</div><div style="text-align:justify"> </div><div style="text-align:justify"> The assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of businesses acquired are measured at their fair values at the date of acquisition. In the case of a business combination which is completed in stages, the fair values of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities are determined at the date of each exchange transaction. When the initial accounting for a business combination is determined provisionally, any subsequent adjustments to the provisional values allocated to the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities are made within twelve months of the acquisition date and presented as adjustments to goodwill in the reporting period in which the adjustments are determined.</div> The Company allocates a share of net income to the noncontrolling interest holders based on percentage ownership.

Goodwill and Impairment Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of acquired entities over the net amounts assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Goodwill primarily comprises acquired workforce in place which does not qualify for recognition as an asset apart from goodwill. Goodwill is stated net of any provision for impairment. The Company tests goodwill annually for any impairments or whenever events occur which may indicate impairment. The Company applied the provisions of ASU 2017-04 'Intangibles - Goodwill and Other: Simplifying the test for goodwill impairment' with effect from January 1, 2018. Under the amendment, the Company was required to perform its annual goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An impairment charge would be recognized for any amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit's fair value up to the amount of existing goodwill. The amendment allows an entity to perform a qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative impairment test is necessary.

Intangible assets Intangible assets are amortized on a straight line basis over their estimated useful life.

Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash and highly liquid investments with initial maturities of three months or less and are stated at cost, which approximates market value.

Historical credit loss experience provides the basis for the estimation of expected credit losses. The Company's receivables and unbilled services are predominantly due from large and mid-tier pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that share similar risk characteristics. The Company monitors their portfolio of receivables and unbilled services for any deterioration in current or expected credit quality (for example, expected delinquency level), and adjusts the allowance for credit losses as required.</div><div style="text-align:justify"> </div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:36pt">Changes in the allowance for credit losses are recorded as a provision for (or reversal of) credit loss expense in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. Losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of a previously provisioned amount is confirmed.</div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:36pt"> </div><div style="text-align:justify">Accounts receivable factoring</div> Where the Company enters into an agreement to sell certain portfolios of its accounts receivable balances, the sale is accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 860 'Transfers and Servicing' (ASC 860). Agreements which result in true sales of the transferred receivables, as defined in ASC 860, which occur when receivables are transferred without recourse to ICON, are excluded from amounts reported in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Cash proceeds received from such sales are included in operating cash flows. The associated finance costs are presented as interest expense.

Inventory Inventory is valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value and after provisions for obsolescence. The cost of inventories comprises the purchase price and attributable costs, less trade discounts.

Leases The Company adopted ASC 842 'Leases' (ASC 842), with a date of initial application of January 1, 2019. The lease accounting policy applied in preparation of the results for the year ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2020 therefore reflect application of ASC 842. The Company adopted the standard using the cumulative-effect adjustment approach. Under this transition method, the Company applied the ASC 842 as at the date of initial application (i.e. January 1, 2019), without restatement of comparative period amounts. The cumulative effect of applying the standard is recorded as an adjustment to the opening consolidated balance sheet as at the date of initial application (see note 24 - Impact of new accounting pronouncements for further details). The comparative information for the year ended December 31, 2018 has not been adjusted and therefore continues to be reported under ASC 840 'Leases' (ASC 840). <div style="margin-bottom:9pt;text-align:justify"> ASC 842 requires lessees to recognize the rights and obligations resulting from virtually all leases on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as right-of-use (ROU) assets with corresponding lease liabilities. </div><div style="margin-bottom:9pt;text-align:justify"> The most significant impact of application of the standard for the Company related to the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheet for operating leases for certain property, vehicles and equipment. Prior to application of ASC 842, costs in respect of operating leases were charged to the Consolidated Statements of Operations on a straight-line basis over the lease term. </div><div style="margin-bottom:9pt;text-align:justify"> Pursuant to certain practical expedients available as part of adopting ASC 842, ICON did not reassess whether existing or expired supplier contracts are or contain leases, the classification of existing or expired leases, or whether unamortized initial direct costs meet the new definition of initial direct costs under ASC 842. Additionally, the Company elected to use hindsight in determining the lease term and in assessing impairment of ROU assets, if any. </div><div style="margin-bottom:9pt;text-align:justify"> The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Finance leases, if any, are depreciated on the same basis as property, plant and equipment. At December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company did not account for any leases as finance leases. </div><div style="margin-bottom:9pt;text-align:justify"> Operating leases are included in operating right-of-use assets, other liabilities and non-current operating lease liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheet with the lease charge recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date or date of transition. Our lease terms may also include options to extend or terminate. The Company actively reviews options to extend or terminate leases and adjusts the ROU asset and lease liability when it is reasonably certain the option will be exercised. The ROU asset is adjusted for any prepayments made at the date of commencement and any initial direct costs incurred. As most of the Company's leases do not provide an implicit rate, the discount rate used is based on the rate of traded corporate bonds available at the commencement date adjusted for country risk, liquidity and lease term.</div><div style="text-align:justify"> Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the depreciable lives of the corresponding fixed assets or the lease term including any applicable renewals. Certain property leases include variable lease payments resulting from periodic rent increases based on an index which cannot be reasonably estimated at the lease commencement date. These costs are expensed as incurred on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. </div><div style="text-align:justify"> </div><div style="text-align:justify"> The Company accounts for lease and non-lease components separately with lease components flowing through the Consolidated Balance Sheet and non-lease components expensed directly to the Consolidated Statements of Operations. </div><div style="text-align:justify"> </div><div style="text-align:justify"> In some cases, the Company enters into sublease agreements and becomes both a lessee and a lessor for the same underlying asset. Although subleases are accounted for separately from the lease they relate to, subleases are accounted for in the same way as other leases.</div>

Income taxes The Company applies the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and for operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which these temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance to the amount more likely than not to be realized. The Company recognizes the effect of income tax positions only if those positions will more likely than not be sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement. Interest and penalties related to income taxes are included in income tax expense and classified with the related liability on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Company accounts for the impact of GILTI (“global intangible low-taxed income”) as a period item in the period it arises and has therefore not provided for deferred taxes in respect of this item.

Government grants<div style="text-align:justify"> Government grants received relating to capital expenditures are shown by deducting the grant from the asset's carrying amount and crediting them to income on a basis consistent with the depreciation policy of the relevant assets. Grants relating to categories of operating expenditures are shown as deferred income and credited to income in the period in which the expenditure to which they relate is charged.</div><div> </div><div style="text-align:justify"> Under the grant agreements amounts received may become repayable in full should certain circumstances specified within the grant agreements occur, including downsizing by the Company, disposing of the related assets, ceasing to carry on its business or the appointment of a receiver over any of its assets. The Company has not recognized any loss contingency having assessed as remote the likelihood of these events arising.</div> Research and development credits Research and development credits are available to the Company under the tax laws in certain jurisdictions, based on qualifying research and development spend as defined under those tax laws. Research and development credits are generally recognized as a reduction of income tax expense. However, certain tax jurisdictions provide refundable credits that are not wholly dependent on the Company's ongoing income tax status or income tax position. In these circumstances the benefit of these credits is not recorded as a reduction to income tax expense, but rather as a reduction of operating expenditure.

Pension costs<div style="text-align:justify"> The Company contributes to defined contribution plans covering all eligible employees. The Company contributes to these plans based upon various fixed percentages of employee compensation and such contributions are expensed as incurred.</div><div> </div><div style="text-align:justify"> The Company operates, through two subsidiaries, a defined benefit plan for certain of its United Kingdom and Swiss employees. The Company accounts for the costs of these plans in accordance with ASC 715-30 'Defined Benefit Plans – Pension'. These plans are presented in accordance with the requirements of ASC 715-60 'Defined Benefit Plans – Other Postretirement'.</div>

2 Redeemable noncontrolling interests and equityThe Company acquired a majority ownership interest in MeDiNova during the year ended December 31, 2019. Included in the purchase agreement were put and call option arrangements with the noncontrolling interest holders that required (put option) or enabled (call option) the Company to purchase the remaining minority ownership at a future date. The option was accounted for as temporary equity, which is presented separately as redeemable noncontrolling interest on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. This classification reflects the assessment that the instruments are contingently redeemable in accordance with ASC 480-10-S99 'Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity'. On March 9, 2020, ICON exercised its option to call the remaining shares and took 100% ownership of MeDiNova. Redeemable noncontrolling interests are accreted to their redemption value over the period from the date of issuance to the first date on which the option is exercisable. The change in the option's redemption value is recorded against retained earnings. In a computation of earnings per share, the accretion of redeemable noncontrolling interests to their redemption value is a reduction of net income attributable to the Group. Basic and diluted net income per ordinary share attributable to the Group includes the adjustment to reflect the accretion of the noncontrolling interest to its redemption value until the redemption of the noncontrolling interest on March 9, 2020.

Net income per ordinary share Basic net income per ordinary share attributable to the Company has been computed by dividing net income available to ordinary shareholders by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per ordinary share is computed by adjusting the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period for all potentially dilutive ordinary shares outstanding during the period and adjusting net income for any changes in income or loss that would result from the conversion of such potential ordinary shares. There is no difference in net income used for basic and diluted net income per ordinary share. Basic and diluted net income per ordinary share attributable to the Company includes the adjustment to reflect the accretion of the noncontrolling interest in MeDiNova to its redemption value (see note 26 - Net income per ordinary share).

Share-based compensation<div style="margin-bottom:9pt;text-align:justify"> The Company accounts for its share options, Restricted Share Units ("RSUs") and Performance Share Units ("PSUs") in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718 'Compensation – Stock Compensation'. Share-based compensation expense for equity-settled awards made to employees and directors is measured and recognized based on estimated grant date fair values. These equity-settled awards include employee share options, RSUs and PSUs.</div><div style="margin-bottom:9pt;text-align:justify"> Share-based compensation expense for share options awarded to employees and directors is estimated at the grant date based on each option's fair value as calculated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Share-based compensation for RSUs and PSUs awarded to employees and directors is calculated based on the market value of the Company's shares on the date of award of the RSUs and PSUs. The value of awards expected to vest is recognized as an expense over the requisite service periods. Forfeitures are estimated on the date of grant and revised if actual or expected forfeiture activity differs materially from original estimates.</div><div style="text-align:justify"> Estimating the grant date fair value of share options as of the grant date using an option-pricing model, such as the Black-Scholes model, is affected by the Company's share price as well as assumptions regarding a number of complex variables. These variables include, but are not limited to, the expected share price volatility over the term of the awards, risk-free interest rates and the expected term of the awards.</div> Liability classified awards are measured at the fair value of the award on the grant date and remeasured at each reporting period at fair value until the award is settled.

Impairment of long-lived assets Long-lived 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 to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured at the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount of the asset or fair value less selling costs.

Derivative financial instruments<div style="text-align:justify"> We enter into transactions in the normal course of business using various financial instruments in order to hedge against exposure to fluctuating exchange and interest rates. We use derivative financial instruments to reduce exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. A derivative is a financial instrument or other contract whose value changes in response to some underlying variable, which has an initial net investment smaller than would be required for other instruments that have a similar response to the variable and that will be settled at a future date. We do not enter into derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. We did not hold any interest rate swap contracts or forward currency contracts at December 31, 2020 or December 31, 2019. </div><div style="text-align:justify"> </div><div style="text-align:justify"> We use derivative financial instruments to reduce exposure to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. During the years ended December 31, 2018, December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2020 we entered into forward currency contracts in respect of identified exposure arising from euro payments. All contracts expired during the year in which the contract was entered into. </div><div> </div><div style="text-align:justify"> Our accounting policies for derivative financial instruments are based on whether they meet the criteria for designation as cash flow or fair value hedges. A designated hedge of the exposure to variability in the future cash flows of an asset or a liability, or of a forecast transaction, is referred to as a cash flow hedge. A designated hedge of the exposure to changes in fair value of an asset or a liability is referred to as a fair value hedge. The criterion for designating a derivative as a hedge includes the assessment of the instrument's effectiveness in risk reduction, matching of the derivative instrument to its underlying transaction and the probability that the underlying transaction will occur. For derivatives with cash flow hedge accounting designation, we report the gain or loss from the effective portion of the hedge as a component of Other Comprehensive Income and reclassify it into earnings in the same period or periods in which the hedged transaction affects earnings and within the same Consolidated Statement of Operations line item as the impact of the hedged transaction. For derivatives with fair value hedge accounting designation, we recognize gains or losses from the change in fair value of these derivatives, as well as the offsetting change in the fair value of the underlying hedged item, in earnings. Fair value gains and losses arising on derivative financial instruments not qualifying for hedge accounting are reported in our Consolidated Statement of Operations.</div>

Financing costs and gain on interest rate hedge<div style="text-align:justify"> The interest rate in respect of the 2015 Senior Notes was fixed at 3.64% for the 5 year term of the agreement. The associated interest costs were recognized in interest expense in the period from drawdown in December 2015 until its maturity in December 2020. The interest rate in respect of the 2020 Senior Notes is fixed at 2.32% for Series A Notes which will mature on December 8, 2023 and 2.43% for Series B Notes which will mature on December 8, 2025. The associated interest cost is recognized in the period since drawdown in December 2020. </div><div> </div><div style="text-align:justify"> Cash proceeds ($4.6 million) received in November 2015 in respect of the realized hedge gain are amortized to the Consolidated Statement of Operations, net against interest payable, over the period of the 2015 Senior Notes. There was a cash outflow ($0.9 million) in July 2020, representing a realized loss on the interest hedge on the 2020 Senior Notes. This was recorded within Other Comprehensive Income and the realized loss is amortized to the Consolidated Statement of Operations over the term of the 2020 Senior Notes.</div><div> </div><div style="margin-bottom:9pt;text-align:justify"> Deferred financing costs (including issue costs relating to the Senior Notes) are reported at cost less accumulated amortization and the related amortization expense is included in interest expense, in our Consolidated Statement of Operations.</div>

The fair value of the contingent consideration on acquisition, and at December 31, 2019, was $2.5 million based on an income approach. The value of the contractual contingent consideration is in the range of zero to a maximum of $2.5 million. Due to the short term nature of the contingent consideration, no discounting was applied. As the fair value measure is based on significant inputs that are not observable in the market, the contingent consideration meets the definition of a level 3 financial instrument under ASC 820. The inputs that are not observable in the market are the expected revenue of the company to the period ending March 31, 2020 and the probability of achievement of this revenue target by the company. A positive or negative movement of these inputs by 10% would not result in a material change to the contingent consideration balance. In the twelve month period ended December 31, 2020, the contingent consideration was settled at fair value in the amount of $0.5 million.

*Goodwill represents the acquisition of an established workforce with experience in molecular diagnostic specialty laboratory services and commercialization of precision medicines in oncology. None of the goodwill recognized is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. In finalizing the goodwill on acquisition of MMD in the twelve month period from acquisition, fair value adjustments were made which resulted in increases in unbilled revenue ($2.1 million), deferred tax asset ($3.7 million), accounts payable ($0.6 million) and other liabilities ($0.1 million) and decreases in property, plant and equipment ($0.1 million) and unearned revenue ($0.9 million). Customer relationship and order backlog assets were also finalized.

At the present time it is not clear whether annuities will be purchased when members reach retirement or whether pensions will be paid each month out of scheme assets. The cash flows above have been estimated on the assumption that employees will take 50% of their benefits as a lump sum and the remainder will be paid monthly out of scheme assets as a pension. If employees choose a different option, the actual future benefit payments will be significantly different from those shown above.</div>

The program was designed to allow share repurchases during periods when the Company would ordinarily not be permitted to do so because it may be in possession of material non-public or price-sensitive information or due to applicable insider trading laws or self-imposed trading blackout periods. The Company's instructions to the broker were irrevocable and the trading decisions in respect of the repurchase program were made independently of and uninfluenced by the Company. The Company confirms that on entering the share repurchase plans it had no material non-public, price-sensitive or inside information regarding the Company or its securities. Furthermore, the Company will not enter into additional plans whilst in possession of such information. The timing and actual number of shares acquired by way of the redemption will be dependent on market conditions, legal and regulatory requirements and the other terms and limitations contained in the program. In addition, acquisitions under the program may be suspended or discontinued in certain circumstances in accordance with the agreed terms. Therefore, there can be no assurance as to the timing or number of shares that may be acquired under the program.</div>

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities and projected future taxable income in making this assessment. In respect of deferred tax assets not subject to a valuation allowance, management considers that it is more likely than not that these deferred tax assets will be realized on the basis that there will be sufficient reversals of deferred tax liabilities and taxable income in future periods. </div><div style="margin-bottom:9pt;text-align:justify"> The Company has recognized a deferred tax liability of $0.9 million (2019: $5.4 million) for investments in foreign subsidiaries where the Company does not consider the earnings to be indefinitely reinvested. For the deferred tax liability not recognized in respect of temporary differences related to investments in foreign subsidiaries which are considered to be indefinitely reinvested, it is not practicable to calculate the exact unrecognized deferred tax liability, however it is not expected to be material as Ireland allows a tax credit in respect of distributions from foreign subsidiaries at the statutory tax rate in the jurisdiction of the subsidiary so that no material tax liability would be expected to arise in Ireland in the event these earnings were ever remitted. In addition, withholding taxes applicable to remittances from foreign subsidiaries would not be expected to be material given Ireland’s tax treaty network and the EU parent subsidiary

Commitments and Contingencies<div style="text-align:justify">Litigation</div><div> </div><div style="text-align:justify"> On April 20, 2020, an individual named Chrystal Miller (“Miller”) who previously worked for a subsidiary of the Company, ICON Clinical Research LLC (“ICON Clinical”), filed a putative class action lawsuit, Chrystal Miller v. ICON plc et al., in the Superior Court of California, County of San Mateo. Her lawsuit was brought against the Company, ICON Clinical, DOCS Global, Inc., a subsidiary of the Company, and an individual former employee of ICON Clinical (collectively, “the ICON defendants”). The complaint alleges that the ICON defendants violated the California Labor Code and the California Business & Professions Code by failing to pay overtime wages, provide meal and rest periods, provide accurate, itemized wage statements, and timely pay all final wages to Clinical Research Associates employed in California since April 20, 2016. The suit seeks monetary damages, interest, injunctive relief, and attorneys’ fees and costs. On June 22, 2020, the case was removed to the U.S. District Court, Northern District of California. On November 4, 2020, the federal court remanded the case to San Mateo Superior Court. On December 23, 2020, ICON Clinical filed a cross-complaint against Miller alleging causes of action for fraud, negligent misrepresentation, conversion, breach of contract, and accounting. The ICON defendants deny the allegations that they have acted unlawfully and are vigorously defending the lawsuit.</div><div style="text-align:justify"> </div><div style="text-indent:36pt"> </div><div style="text-align:justify">Operating Leases</div><div> </div><div style="text-align:justify"> The Company has several non-cancelable operating leases, primarily for facilities, that expire over the next twelve years.

satisfaction of performance obligations and the invoicing and collection of amounts related to our contracts with customers. We record assets for amounts related to performance obligations that are satisfied but not yet billed and/or collected. These assets are recorded as unbilled revenue and therefore contract assets rather than accounts receivables when receipt of the consideration is conditional on something other than the passage of time. Liabilities are recorded for amounts that are collected in advance of the satisfaction of performance obligations or billed in advance of the revenue being earned. </div><div style="text-align:justify"> </div><div style="text-align:justify"> Unbilled services/revenue balances arise where invoicing or billing is based on the timing of agreed milestones related to service contracts for clinical research. Contractual billing arrangements in respect of certain reimbursable expenses (principally investigators) require billing by the investigator to the Company prior to billing by the Company to the customer. As there is no contractual right of set-off between unbilled services (contract assets) and unearned revenue (contract liabilities), each are separately presented gross on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. </div><div style="text-align:justify"> The Company is the contract principal in respect of both direct services and in the use of third parties (principally investigator services) that support a clinical trial. The progress towards completion for clinical service contracts is measured based on total project costs (including reimbursable costs). Amounts owed to investigators and others in respect of reimbursable expenses at December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were $138.2 million and $142.6 million (see note 7 - Other liabilities). </div><div style="text-align:justify"> </div><div style="text-align:justify"> Unbilled services as at December 31, 2020 increased by $5.9 million as compared to December 31, 2019.

These fluctuations are primarily due to timing of payments and invoicing related to the Group's clinical trial management contracts. Billings and payments are established by contractual provisions including predetermined payment schedules which may or may not correspond to the timing of the transfer of control of the Company's services under the contract. Unbilled services arise from long-term contract when a cost-based input method of revenue recognition is applied and revenue recognized exceeds the amount billed to the customer. </div><div style="text-align:justify"> </div><div style="text-align:justify"> The credit loss expense recognized on the Group's receivables and unbilled services was $2.9 million and $0.4 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.</div> As of December 31, 2020 approximately $6.3 billion of revenue is expected to be recognized in the future in respect of unsatisfied performance obligations. The Company expects to recognize revenue on approximately 42% of the unrealized performance obligation over the next twelve months, with the remainder recognized thereafter over the duration of the customer contracts.

Business Segment and Geographical Information<div style="text-align:justify"> The Company is a clinical research organization ("CRO"), providing outsourced development services on a global basis to the pharmaceutical, biotechnology and medical device industries. It specializes in the strategic development, management and analysis of programs that support all stages of the clinical development process - from compound selection to Phase I-IV clinical studies. The Company has the expertise and capability to conduct clinical trials in most major therapeutic areas on a global basis and has the operational flexibility to provide development services on a stand-alone basis or as part of an integrated "full-service" solution. The Company has expanded predominately through internal growth, together with a number of strategic acquisitions to enhance its expertise and capabilities in certain areas of the clinical development process.</div><div> </div><div style="text-align:justify"> The Company determines and presents operating segments based on the information that is internally provided to the chief operating decision maker, the (‘CODM’) in accordance with ASC 280 'Segment Reporting'. The Company determined that the CODM was comprised of the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer.</div><div> </div><div style="text-align:justify"> The Company operates as one business segment, which is the provision of outsourced development services on a global basis to the pharmaceutical, biotechnology and medical devices industries. </div><div> </div><div style="text-align:justify"> Revenues are allocated to individual entities based on where the work is performed in accordance with the Company's global transfer pricing model. Revenues and income from operations in Ireland are a function of our global contracting model and the Group’s transfer pricing model.</div><div style="text-align:justify"> Given ICON Clinical Research Limited's ("ICON Ireland") role in the development and management of the Group, it's ownership of key intellectual property, customer relationships, its key role in the mitigation of risks faced by the Group, plus the responsibility for maintaining the Group's global network, ICON Ireland acts as the Group entrepreneur and enters into the majority of the Group's customer contracts. As such, ICON Ireland remunerates most of the other operating entities ("cost plus service providers") in the ICON Group on the basis of a guaranteed cost plus mark-up for the services they perform in each of their local territories.</div><div> </div><div style="text-align:justify"> The cost plus mark-up for each ICON entity is established to ensure that each of ICON Ireland and the ICON entities in the various geographical areas that are involved in the conduct of services for customers, earn an appropriate arms-length return having regard to the assets owned, risks borne and functions performed by each entity from these intercompany transactions. The cost plus mark-up policy is reviewed annually to ensure that it is market appropriate.</div><div> </div><div style="text-align:justify"> Under this method, the residual operating profits (or losses) of the Group, once the cost plus service providers have been paid their respective intercompany service fee, are retained by ICON Ireland. The geographic split of revenue disclosed for each region outside Ireland is the cost plus revenue attributable to these entities. The revenues disclosed as relating to Ireland are the net revenues after deducting the cost plus revenues attributable to the activities performed outside Ireland.</div><div> </div><div style="text-align:justify"> The Company's areas of operation outside of Ireland include the United States, United Kingdom, Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy,

On December 15, 2015, ICON Investments Five Unlimited Company issued Senior Notes, '2015 Senior Notes' for aggregate gross proceeds of $350.0 million in a private placement. The 2015 Senior Notes matured on December 15, 2020 and this debt was repaid in full. On December 8, 2020, ICON Investments Five Unlimited Company issued new senior notes, '2020 Senior Notes' for aggregate gross proceeds of $350.0 million in a private placement which was guaranteed by ICON plc and ICON Global Treasury Unlimited Company, a subsidiary of the Company. The 2020 Senior Notes were issued in two tranches; Series A Notes of $275.0 million which will mature on December 8, 2023 and Series B Notes of $75.0 million which will mature on December 8, 2025. </div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:36pt"> </div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:36pt">The interest rate in respect of the 2015 Senior Notes was fixed at 3.64% for the five year term.

The interest rate hedge matured in November 2015 when the interest rate on the 2015 Senior Notes was fixed. The interest rate hedge was effective in accordance with ASC 815 'Derivatives and Hedging'. The cash proceeds ($4.6 million), representing the realized gain on the interest rate hedge, were received on maturity in November 2015 and are recorded within Other Comprehensive Income.

The update provides guidance on the measurement of credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income. The amendment replaces the previous incurred loss impairment approach with a methodology to reflect expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to explain credit loss estimates. The updated guidance was applied on a modified retrospective approach and was effective for the Group for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019.

Amendments in this guidance also require disclosure of transfers into and out of Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, purchases and issues of Level 3 assets and liabilities, and clarify that the measurement uncertainty disclosure is about the uncertainty in measurement as of the reporting date. The guidance removed requirements to disclose the amounts and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2, policy for timing between of transfers between levels, and the valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements. The updated guidance is effective for the Group for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019.

The classification and subsequent measurement of the award are subject to the guidance in ASC 718 unless the share-based payment award is subsequently modified and the grantee is no longer a customer.

Amendments in the guidance also clarify the requirement to disclose the projected benefit obligation (PBO) and fair value of plan assets for plans with PBOs in excess of plan assets. The same disclosure is needed for the accumulated benefit obligation (ABO) and fair value of plan assets for plans with ABOs in excess of plan assets.

Subsequent Events<div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:36pt">On February 24, 2021, ICON plc announced it has entered into a Merger Agreement to acquire PRA Health Sciences, Inc. (‘PRA’) in a cash and stock transaction valued at approximately $12 billion. The per share merger consideration consists of $80 in cash and 0.4125 shares of ICON stock. The boards of directors of both companies have approved the acquisition. Subject to receipt of regulatory clearances and approval by shareholders of both companies, the acquisition is expected to close in the third quarter of 2021, and upon completion, ICON shareholders will own approximately 66% of the combined company and PRA shareholders will own approximately 34% of the combined company. </div><div style="text-align:justify"> </div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:36pt">In conjunction with the execution of the Merger Agreement, ICON entered into a commitment letter with Citigroup Global Markets Inc.

The effectiveness of such credit facilities is subject to the occurrence of customary closing conditions, including the consummation of the Merger.</div>The Company has evaluated subsequent events from the Balance Sheet date through February 24, 2021, the date at which the consolidated financial statements were available to be issued.

Impact of change in accounting policies<div style="margin-bottom:10pt;text-align:justify">Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments</div><div style="margin-bottom:10pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:36pt">In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13 'Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (Topic 326)', which significantly changes the way entities recognize impairment of many financial assets by requiring immediate recognition of estimated credit losses expected to occur over their remaining life. The update provides guidance on the measurement of credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income. The amendment replaces the previous incurred loss impairment approach with a methodology to reflect expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to explain credit loss estimates. The updated guidance was applied on a modified retrospective approach and was effective for the Group for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company applied the requirements of the new standard from January 1, 2020 and no adjustment was required to opening retained earnings as of that date.</div><div style="margin-bottom:10pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:36pt">The Company's estimate of expected credit losses considers historical credit loss information that is adjusted, where necessary, for current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Historical credit loss experience provides the basis for the estimation of expected credit losses. The Company's receivables and unbilled services are predominantly due from large and mid-tier pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that share similar risk characteristics. The Company monitors their portfolio of receivables and unbilled services for any deterioration in current or expected credit quality (for example, expected delinquency level), and adjusts the allowance for credit losses as required.</div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:36pt">Changes in the allowance for credit losses are recorded as a provision for (or reversal of) credit loss expense in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. Losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of a previously provisioned amount is confirmed.</div><div style="margin-bottom:1pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:36pt"> </div><div style="text-align:justify">Leases</div><div style="text-align:justify"> The new leasing standard (ASU No. 2016-02 'Leases') was issued in February 2016. ASC 842 'Leases' (ASC 842) supersedes the requirements in ASC 840 'Leases' (ASC 840) and requires that lessees recognize rights and obligations from virtually all leases (other than leases that meet the definition of a short-term lease) on their Balance Sheets as right-of-use assets with corresponding lease liabilities. The ASU also provides additional guidance on how to classify leases and how to determine the lease term for accounting purposes. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-11 'Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements', which provides the option to adopt the standard retrospectively for each prior period presented, as initially set out in ASU No. 2016-02, or as of the adoption date with a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. </div><div style="margin-bottom:10pt;text-align:justify"> </div><div style="margin-bottom:10pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:36pt">ASC 842 became effective for ICON plc with effect from January 1, 2019. ICON adopted the new standard as of January 1, 2019 under the cumulative effect adjustment approach. Under this transition method, the new standard is applied from January 1, 2019 without restatement of comparative period amounts. Results for the year ended December 31, 2018 are therefore presented under the previous leasing accounting principles, ASC 840. Operating lease liabilities and right-of-use assets have been recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as at January 1, 2019 of $106.5 million. </div><div style="margin-bottom:9pt;margin-top:9pt;text-align:justify"> There is no impact of adopting ASC 842 on opening retained earnings at January 1, 2019.</div>
