TELEFLEX INCORPORATED
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

Note 1 — Basis of presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Teleflex Incorporated and its subsidiaries (“we,” “us,” “our,” “Teleflex” and the “Company”) are prepared on the same basis as its annual consolidated financial statements.
In the opinion of management, the financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for the fair statement of the financial statements for interim periods in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") and Rule 10-01 of Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") Regulation S-X, which sets forth the instructions for the form and content of presentation of financial statements included in Form 10-Q. The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The results of operations for the periods reported are not necessarily indicative of those that may be expected for a full year.
In accordance with applicable accounting standards and as permitted by Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnote disclosures that are required to be included in the Company's annual consolidated financial statements. Therefore, the Company's quarterly condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Note 2 — Recently issued accounting standards
In February 2016, the FASB issued guidance that changes the requirements for accounting for leases. Under the new guidance, in connection with a lease as to which an entity is a lessee, the entity generally must recognize a right-to-use asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet, initially measured as the present value of lease payments under the lease. Under previous guidance, operating leases were not recognized on the balance sheet. The Company adopted the new standard on January 1, 2019 using a modified retrospective transition approach, which requires leases existing at, or entered into after, January 1, 2019 to be recognized and measured in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The Company recognized additional net lease assets and lease liabilities of $105.3 million and $106.6 million, respectively, upon adoption of the guidance. The difference between the additional lease assets and lease liabilities was recorded as an adjustment to the Company's opening balance of retained earnings. Prior period amounts have not been adjusted and continue to reflect the Company's historical accounting. 
As permitted under the new guidance, the Company has made an accounting policy election not to apply the recognition provisions of the new guidance to short term leases (leases with a lease term of 12 months or less that do not include an option to purchase the underlying asset that the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise); instead, the Company will recognize the lease payments for short term leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. In addition, the Company has elected to apply certain practical expedients available under the new guidance. As a result, and in connection with the transition to the new guidance, the Company did not reassess (i) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, (ii) the classification of any expired or existing leases, or (iii) initial direct costs for any existing leases. The Company applied the practical expedients described above to its entire lease portfolio at the January 1, 2019 adoption date. Furthermore, as permitted under the new guidance, the Company has made, as a practical expedient, an accounting policy election to not separate lease and non-lease components and instead will account for each separate lease component and the non-lease components associated with that lease component as a single lease component. Additional information and disclosures required by the new guidance are contained in Note 8.
In February 2018, the FASB issued new guidance to address a narrow-scope financial reporting issue that arose as a consequence of federal tax legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act ("the TCJA"). Existing guidance requires that deferred tax liabilities and assets be adjusted for a change in tax laws or rates with

(Unaudited)

the effect included in income from continuing operations in the reporting period that includes the enactment date. The guidance is applicable even in situations in which the related income tax effects of items in accumulated other comprehensive income were originally recognized in other comprehensive income (rather than in net income), such as amounts related to benefit plans and hedging activity. As a result, the tax effects of items within accumulated other comprehensive income (referred to as stranded tax effects) do not reflect the appropriate tax rate. The new guidance, which was effective January 1, 2019, permits reclassification of these amounts from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings thereby eliminating the stranded tax effects. The new guidance also requires certain disclosures about the stranded tax effects. The Company elected not to reclassify stranded tax effects from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings.
In June 2016, the FASB issued new guidance that changes the methodology to be used to measure credit losses for certain financial instruments and financial assets, including trade receivables. Under current guidance, an entity reflects credit losses on financial assets measured on an amortized cost basis only when it is probable that losses have been incurred, generally considering only past events and current conditions in determining incurred loss. The new guidance requires the recognition of an allowance that reflects the current estimate of credit losses expected to be incurred over the life of the financial asset, based not only on historical experience and current conditions, but also on reasonable forecasts. The main objective of the new guidance is to provide financial statement users with more useful information in making decisions about the expected credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit held by a reporting entity at each reporting date. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The new guidance will be applied on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the annual period in which the adoption is effective. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures, but it is not expected to have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.
From time to time, new accounting guidance is issued by the FASB or other standard setting bodies that is adopted by the Company as of the effective date or, in some cases where early adoption is permitted, in advance of the effective date. The Company has assessed the recently issued guidance that is not yet effective and, unless otherwise indicated above, believes the new guidance will not have a material impact on the its consolidated results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

Note 3 - Net revenues
The Company primarily generates revenue from the sale of medical devices including single use disposable devices and, to a lesser extent, reusable devices, instruments and capital equipment. Revenue is recognized when obligations under the terms of a contract with the Company’s customer are satisfied; this occurs upon the transfer of control of the products. Generally, transfer of control to the customer occurs at the point in time when the Company’s products are shipped from the manufacturing or distribution facility. For the Company’s Original Equipment and Development Services ("OEM") segment, most revenue is recognized over time because the OEM segment generates revenue from the sale of custom products that have no alternative use and the Company has an enforceable right to payment to the extent that performance has been completed. The Company markets and sells products through its direct sales force and distributors to customers within the following end markets: (1) hospitals and healthcare providers; (2) other medical device manufacturers; and (3) home care providers such as pharmacies, which comprised 88%, 10% and 2% of consolidated net revenues, respectively, for the nine months ended September 29, 2019. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring goods. With respect to the custom products sold in the OEM segment, revenue is measured using the units produced output method. Payment is generally due 30 days from the date of invoice.

Note 4 — Divestitures
On February 4, 2019, the Company sold substantially all of the assets related to its vein catheter reprocessing business for $12.6 million. The Company recognized a $2.7 million pre-tax gain on the sale of assets, which represents the excess of the $9.7 million fair value of consideration received over the carrying value of the assets sold. In connection with the sale, the purchaser of the assets issued a secured promissory note to the Company in the principal amount of $10.5 million. The purchaser's obligations under the notes are secured by a lien on substantially all of the purchaser's assets. The purchaser is obligated to repay the principal amount of the promissory note in annual installments of $2.1 million on each of the first five anniversaries of the date of sale. On the date of sale, the fair value of the promissory note was $7.6 million, which the Company calculated by applying a discount rate determined after taking into account the creditworthiness of the purchaser. As of September 29, 2019, the Company had $8.3 million in receivables related to the promissory note, of which $2.1 million and $6.2 million are included in accounts receivable, net and other assets, respectively, within the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Note 8 — Leases
The Company has operating leases for various types of properties, consisting of manufacturing plants, engineering and research centers, distribution warehouses, offices and other facilities, and equipment used in operations. Some leases provide the Company with an option, exercisable at the Company's sole discretion, to terminate the lease or extend the lease term for one or more years. When measuring assets and liabilities arising from a lease that provides the Company with an option to extend the lease term, the Company takes into account payments to be made in the optional extension period when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise the option. Total lease cost (all of which related to operating leases) was $6.8 million and $19.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2019, respectively.

Credit Agreement
On April 5, 2019, the Company amended and restated its existing credit agreement by entering into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement"), which provides for a five-year revolving credit facility of $1.0 billion and a term loan facility of $700.0 million. The Company's obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed (subject to certain exceptions and limitations) by substantially all of the material domestic subsidiaries of the Company. The obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured, subject to certain exceptions and limitations, by a lien on substantially all of the assets owned by the Company and each guarantor. The maturity date of the revolving credit facility and the term loan facility under the Credit Agreement is April 5, 2024.
At the Company’s option, loans under the Credit Agreement will bear interest at a rate equal to adjusted LIBOR plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.250% to 2.00% or at an alternate base rate, which generally is defined as the highest of (i) the “Prime Rate” in the U.S. last quoted by The Wall Street Journal, (ii) 0.50% above the greater of the federal funds rate and the rate comprised of both overnight federal funds and overnight eurodollar borrowings and (iii) 1.00% above adjusted LIBOR for a one month interest period, plus in each case an applicable margin ranging from 0.125% to 1.00%, in each case subject to adjustments based on the Company’s consolidated total net leverage ratio. Overdue loans will bear interest at the rate otherwise applicable to such loans plus 2.00%.
The Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and covenants that, in each case, subject to certain exceptions, qualifications and thresholds, (a) place limitations on the Company and its subsidiaries regarding the incurrence of additional indebtedness, additional liens, fundamental changes, dispositions of property, investments and acquisitions, dividends and other restricted payments, transactions with affiliates, restrictive agreements, changes in lines of business and swap agreements, and (b) require the Company and its subsidiaries to comply with sanction laws and other laws and agreements, to deliver financial information and certain other information and give notice of certain events, to maintain their existence and good standing, to pay their other obligations, to permit the administrative agent and the lenders to inspect their books and property, to use the proceeds of the Credit Agreement only for certain permitted purposes and to provide collateral in the future. Subject to certain exceptions, the Company is required to maintain a maximum consolidated total net leverage ratio of 4.50 to 1.00. The Company is further required to maintain a minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio of 3.50 to 1.00.
The Company capitalized $3.9 million related to transaction fees, including underwriters' discounts and commissions incurred in connection with the Credit Agreement.

Note 10 — Financial instruments
Foreign currency forward contracts
The Company uses derivative instruments for risk management purposes. Foreign currency forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges are used to manage exposure related to foreign currency transactions. Foreign currency forward contracts not designated as hedges for accounting purposes are used to manage exposure related to near term foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities. The Company enters into the non-designated foreign currency forward contracts for periods consistent with its currency translation exposures, which generally approximate one month. For the three and nine months ended September 29, 2019, the Company recognized losses of $1.9 million and $3.5 million, respectively, related to non-designated foreign currency forward contracts. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company recognized gains related to non-designated foreign currency forward contracts of $1.0 million and $0.3 million, respectively.
The total notional amount for all open foreign currency forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges as of September 29, 2019 and December 31, 2018 was $115.6 million and $115.3 million, respectively. The total notional amount for all open non-designated foreign currency forward contracts as of September 29, 2019 and December 31, 2018 was $170.1 million and $125.9 million, respectively. All open foreign currency forward contracts as of September 29, 2019 have durations of 12 months or less.
Cross-currency interest rate swaps
On March 4, 2019, the Company entered into cross-currency swap agreements with five different financial institution counterparties to hedge against the effect of variability in the U.S. dollar to euro exchange rate. Under the terms of the cross-currency swap agreements, the Company has notionally exchanged $250 million at an annual interest rate of 4.8750% for €219.2 million at an annual interest rate of 2.4595%. The swap agreements are designed as net investment hedges and expire on March 4, 2024.
On October 4, 2018, the Company entered into cross-currency swap agreements with six different financial institution counterparties to hedge against the effect of variability in the U.S. dollar to euro exchange rate. Under the terms of the cross-currency swap agreements, the Company has notionally exchanged $500 million at an annual interest rate of 4.625% for €433.9 million at an annual interest rate of 1.942%. The swap agreements are designed as net investment hedges and expire on October 4, 2023.
The swap agreements described above require an exchange of the notional amounts upon expiration or earlier termination of the agreements. We and the counterparties have agreed to effect the exchange through a net settlement.
The cross-currency swaps are marked to market at each reporting date and any changes in fair value are recognized as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) ("AOCI"). For the three and nine months ended September 29, 2019, the Company recognized foreign exchange gains of $23.5 million and 29.4 million, respectively, within AOCI related to the cross-currency swaps.

There were no transfers of financial assets or liabilities reported at fair value among Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy during the nine months ended September 29, 2019.

Valuation Techniques
The Company’s financial assets valued based upon Level 1 inputs are comprised of investments in marketable securities held in trust, which are available to satisfy benefit obligations under Company benefit plans and other arrangements. The investment assets of the trust are valued using quoted market prices.
The Company’s financial assets and liabilities valued based upon Level 2 inputs are comprised of foreign currency forward contracts and cross-currency interest rate swap agreements. The Company uses foreign currency forward contracts and cross-currency interest rate swap agreements to manage foreign currency transaction exposure, exposure to foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities and exposure to the effect of variability in the U.S. dollar to euro exchange rate. The Company measures the fair value of the foreign currency forward and cross-currency swap agreements by calculating the amount required to enter into offsetting contracts with similar remaining maturities, based on quoted market prices, and taking into account the creditworthiness of the counterparties.

The Company’s financial liabilities valued based upon Level 3 inputs (inputs that are not observable in the market) are comprised of contingent consideration arrangements pertaining to the Company’s acquisitions, which are discussed immediately below.
Contingent consideration
Contingent consideration liabilities, which primarily consist of payment obligations that are contingent upon the achievement of revenue-based goals, but also can be based on other milestones such as regulatory approvals, are remeasured to fair value each reporting period using assumptions including estimated revenues (based on internal operational budgets and long-range strategic plans), discount rates, probability of payment and projected payment dates.
The Company determines the fair value of the contingent consideration liabilities using a Monte Carlo simulation (which involves a simulation of future revenues during the earn out-period using management's best estimates) or a probability-weighted discounted cash flow analysis. Increases in projected revenues, estimated cash flows and probabilities of payment may result in significantly higher fair value measurements; decreases in these items may have the opposite effect. Increases in the discount rates in periods prior to payment may result in significantly lower fair value measurements and decreases in the discount rates may have the opposite effect.

Note 12 — Shareholders’ equity
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed in the same manner except that the weighted average number of shares is increased to include dilutive securities. The following table provides a reconciliation of basic to diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding:

The weighted average number of shares that were antidilutive and therefore excluded from the calculation of earnings per share were 0.1 million for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2019 and 0.7 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Effective income tax rate (132.3)%   (2.3)%   (48.4)%   11.8%   
The effective income tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2019 was (132.3)% and (48.4)%, respectively, and (2.3)% and 11.8%, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018. The effective income tax rates for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2019 reflect a discrete tax benefit of $129 million resulting from a non-U.S. legal entity restructuring that eliminated the requirement to provide for foreign withholding taxes on the future repatriation of certain non-permanently reinvested earnings. The effective tax rates for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 include a tax benefit associated with asset impairment charges. In addition, the income tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 reflects non-deductible termination benefits and other costs incurred in connection with the 2018 Footprint realignment plan as described in Note 5.

Note 14 — Commitments and contingent liabilities
Environmental: The Company is subject to contingencies as a result of environmental laws and regulations that in the future may require the Company to take further action to correct the effects on the environment of prior disposal practices or releases of chemical or petroleum substances by the Company or other parties. Much of this liability results from the U.S. Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, often referred to as Superfund, the U.S. Resource Conservation and Recovery Act and similar state laws. These laws

require the Company to undertake certain investigative and remedial activities at sites where the Company conducts or once conducted operations or at sites where Company-generated waste was disposed.
Remediation activities vary substantially in duration and cost from site to site. These activities, and their associated costs, depend on the mix of unique site characteristics, evolving remediation technologies, the regulatory agencies involved and their enforcement policies, as well as the presence or absence of other potentially responsible parties. At September 29, 2019, the Company has recorded $0.9 million and $6.3 million in accrued liabilities and other liabilities, respectively, relating to these matters. Considerable uncertainty exists with respect to these liabilities and, if adverse changes in circumstances occur, the potential liability may exceed the amount accrued as of September 29, 2019. The time frame over which the accrued amounts may be paid out, based on past history, is estimated to be 10-15 years.
Litigation: The Company is a party to various lawsuits and claims arising in the normal course of business. These lawsuits and claims include actions involving product liability, product warranty, commercial disputes, intellectual property, contract, employment, environmental and other matters. As of September 29, 2019, the Company has recorded accrued liabilities of $0.2 million in connection with such contingencies, representing its best estimate of the cost within the range of estimated possible losses that will be incurred to resolve these matters.
Based on information currently available, advice of counsel, established reserves and other resources, the Company does not believe that the outcome of any outstanding litigation and claims is likely to be, individually or in the aggregate, material to its business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. However, in the event of unexpected further developments, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of these matters, or other similar matters, if unfavorable, may be materially adverse to the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. Legal costs such as outside counsel fees and expenses are charged to selling, general and administrative expenses in the period incurred.
Tax audits and examinations: The Company and its subsidiaries are routinely subject to tax examinations by various tax authorities. As of September 29, 2019, the most significant tax examination in process is in Germany. The Company may establish reserves with respect to its uncertain tax positions, after which it adjusts the reserves to address developments with respect to its uncertain tax positions, including developments in this tax examination. Accordingly, developments in tax audits and examinations, including resolution of uncertain tax positions, could result in increases or decreases to the Company’s recorded tax liabilities, which could impact the Company’s financial results.

Note 15 — Segment information
During the first quarter 2019, the chief operating decision maker, or CODM, (the Company's Chief Executive Officer) changed the manner in which he reviews financial information for purposes of assessing business performance and allocating resources by focusing on the geographic location of all non-OEM operations. As a result, the Company changed its segment presentation. Specifically, the Vascular North America, Interventional North America, Anesthesia North America, Surgical North America, Interventional Urology North America, Respiratory North America and Latin America operating segments were combined into a new Americas segment. The Company now has four segments: Americas, EMEA (Europe, Middle East and Africa), Asia and OEM. All prior comparative periods presented have been restated to reflect these changes.

Note 16 — Condensed consolidating guarantor financial information
The Company’s $250 million principal amount of 5.25% Senior Notes due 2024 (the “2024 Notes”), $400 million principal amount of 4.875% Senior Notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”) and $500 million principal amount of 4.625% Senior Notes due 2027 (the “2027 Notes," and collectively with the 2024 Notes and the 2026 Notes, the "Senior Notes") are issued by Teleflex Incorporated (the “Parent Company”), and payment of the Parent Company's obligations under the Senior Notes is guaranteed, jointly and severally, by certain of the Parent Company’s subsidiaries (each, a “Guarantor Subsidiary” and collectively, the “Guarantor Subsidiaries”). The 2024 Notes, 2026 Notes and 2027 Notes are guaranteed by the same Guarantor Subsidiaries. The guarantees are full and unconditional, subject to certain customary release provisions. Each Guarantor Subsidiary is directly or indirectly 100% owned by the Parent Company. The Company’s condensed consolidating statements of income and comprehensive income for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2019 and September 30, 2018, condensed consolidating balance sheets as of September 29, 2019 and December 31, 2018 and condensed consolidating statements of cash flows for the nine months ended September 29, 2019 and September 30, 2018, provide consolidated information for:
a. Parent Company, the issuer of the guaranteed obligations;

b. Guarantor Subsidiaries, on a combined basis;

c. Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries (i.e., those subsidiaries of the Parent Company that have not guaranteed
payment of the Senior Notes), on a combined basis; and

d. Parent Company and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis.
In connection with the Company's entry into the Credit Agreement on April 5, 2019 (as described in Note 9), a subsidiary of the Company (the "Released Subsidiary") that was a guarantor of Parent Company’s obligations under the previously outstanding credit agreement and under the Senior Notes was removed as a guarantor of Parent Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement.  Under the indentures governing the Senior Notes, the removal of the Released Subsidiary as a guarantor under the Credit Agreement automatically resulted in the release of the Released Subsidiary from its guarantees of the Senior Notes.  Therefore, as of the date of the Credit Agreement, the Released Subsidiary is no longer a Guarantor Subsidiary. The condensed consolidating statements of income and comprehensive income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, the condensed consolidating balance sheet as of December 31, 2018 and the condensed consolidating statement of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 have been restated to exclude the Released Subsidiary from the information relating to the Guarantor Subsidiaries and to include the Released Subsidiary in the information relating to Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries.
The same accounting policies as described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 are used by the Parent Company and each of its subsidiaries in connection with the condensed consolidating financial information, except for the use of the equity method of accounting to reflect ownership interests in subsidiaries, which are eliminated upon consolidation.
Consolidating entries and eliminations in the following condensed consolidated financial statements represent adjustments to (a) eliminate intercompany transactions between or among the Parent Company, the Guarantor Subsidiaries and the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries, (b) eliminate the investments in subsidiaries and (c) record consolidating entries.

Note 17 — Subsequent event
Redemption of 5.25% Senior Notes due 2024
On October 31, 2019, the Company issued a notice of redemption to holders of its outstanding $250 million aggregate principal amount of 5.25% Senior Notes due 2024 (the “2024 Notes”). Pursuant to the notice of redemption, the 2024 Notes will be redeemed on November 15, 2019 (the “Redemption Date”) at a redemption price equal to 102.625% of the principal amount of the 2024 Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest up to, but not including, the Redemption Date (the “Redemption Price”). The notice of redemption provides that the redemption is subject to the condition that the Company is able to borrow funds under its revolving credit agreement on the Redemption Date in an amount sufficient to pay the aggregate Redemption Price. The Company anticipates it will recognize a loss on extinguishment of debt of $8.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2019 as a result of the redemption of the 2024 Notes.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Forward-Looking Statements
All statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, other than statements of historical fact, are forward-looking statements. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “will,” “would,” “should,” “guidance,” “potential,” “continue,” “project,” “forecast,” “confident,” “prospects” and similar expressions typically are used to identify forward-looking statements.

Overview
Teleflex is a global provider of medical technology products focused on enhancing clinical benefits, improving patient and provider safety and reducing total procedural costs. We primarily design, develop, manufacture and supply single-use medical devices used by hospitals and healthcare providers for common diagnostic and therapeutic procedures in critical care and surgical applications. We market and sell our products worldwide through a combination of our direct sales force and distributors. Because our products are used in numerous markets and for a variety of procedures, we are not dependent upon any one end-market or procedure. We are focused on achieving consistent, sustainable and profitable growth by increasing our market share and improving our operating efficiencies.
 
We evaluate our portfolio of products and businesses on an ongoing basis to ensure alignment with our overall objectives. Based on our evaluation, we may identify opportunities to divest businesses and product lines that do not meet our objectives. In addition, we may seek to optimize utilization of our facilities through restructuring initiatives designed to further improve our cost structure and enhance our competitive position. We also may continue to explore opportunities to expand the size of our business and improve operating margins through a combination of acquisitions and distributor to direct sales conversions, which generally involve our elimination of a distributor from the sales channel, either by acquiring the distributor or terminating the distributor relationship (in some instances, particularly in Asia, the conversions involve our acquisition or termination of a master distributor and the continued sale of our products through sub-distributors or through new distributors). Distributor to direct sales conversions are designed to facilitate improved product pricing and more direct access to the end users of our products within the sales channel.
On February 19, 2019, we initiated a restructuring plan primarily involving the relocation of certain manufacturing operations to existing lower-cost locations and related workforce reductions (the "2019 Footprint realignment plan"). See "Results of Operations - Restructuring and impairment charges" below and Note 5 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report for additional information.

Disruption in Sterilization Services

We were recently informed by one of our contract sterilizers, Sterigenics U.S., LLC, that operations at its Smyrna, Cobb County, Georgia facility have been suspended by state and local officials due to issues associated with the facility’s use of ethylene oxide in its sterilization operations. The suspension of operations at the Smyrna facility has resulted in a disruption in supply with respect to some of our surgical, intermittent catheter and OEM products. We are pursuing various measures to enable us to continue to provide the affected products to our customers, including identifying alternate sterilization facilities, provisioning substitute products and instituting targeted global inventory management procedures. However, we cannot provide assurance that any of these initiatives will be successful. Based on currently available information, we believe that the suspension of operations at Sterigenics’ Smyrna facility will adversely affect our revenues by approximately $9 million during the fourth quarter of 2019. In addition, while we are working to identify alternate sterilization facilities for the affected product, if operations at the Smyrna facility remain suspended and we are unable to find adequate sterilization capacity at an alternate facility or facilities, we expect the suspension of operations at the Smyrna facility will continue to adversely affect our revenues in 2020. For additional information see “Risk Factors” in Part II, Item 1A. of this report.
Change in Reportable Segments
During the first quarter 2019, our chief operating decision maker, or CODM, who is our Chief Executive Officer, changed the manner in which he reviews financial information for purposes of assessing business performance and allocating resources by focusing on the geographic location of all non-OEM (Original Equipment and Development Services) segment operations. As a result, the Company changed its segment presentation. Specifically, the former Vascular North America, Interventional North America, Anesthesia North America, Surgical North America, Interventional Urology North America, Respiratory North America and Latin America operating segments were combined into a new Americas segment. The Company now has four segments: Americas, EMEA (Europe, Middle East and Africa), Asia and OEM. All prior period comparative information has been restated to reflect the change in segment presentation.
Results of Operations
As used in this discussion, "new products" are products for which commercial sales have commenced within the past 36 months, and “existing products” are products for which commercial sales commenced more than 36 months ago. Discussion of results of operations items that reference the effect of one or more acquired and/or divested businesses or assets (except as noted below with respect to acquired distributors) generally reflects the impact of the acquisitions and/or divestitures within the first 12 months following the date of the acquisition and/or divestiture. In addition to increases and decreases in the per unit selling prices of our products to our customers, our discussion of the impact of product price increases and decreases also reflects the impact on the pricing of our products resulting from the elimination of the distributor, either through acquisition or termination of the distributor, from the sales channel.
Certain financial information is presented on a rounded basis, which may cause minor differences.

Net revenues $ 648.3    $ 609.7    $ 1,914.4    $ 1,806.8   
Net revenues for the three months ended September 29, 2019 increased $38.6 million, or 6.3%, compared to the prior year period. The increase was primarily attributable to a $35.1 million increase in sales volumes of existing products and, to a lesser extent, an increase in new product sales, which were partially offset by unfavorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates of $9.2 million.
Net revenues for the nine months ended September 29, 2019 increased $107.6 million, or 6.0%, compared to the prior year period. The increase was primarily attributable to a $109.8 million increase in sales volumes of existing products and, to a lesser extent, an increase in new product sales, which were partially offset by unfavorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates of $40.8 million.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 29, 2019 increased $15.0 million compared to the prior year period. The increase was primarily attributable to increases in selling expenses and expenses incurred by our acquired businesses including contingent consideration expense that resulted from a change in the estimated fair value of our contingent consideration liabilities. The increases were partially offset by the impact of favorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 29, 2019 increased $33.7 million compared to the prior year period. The increase was primarily attributable to expenses incurred by our acquired businesses, an increase in selling and marketing expenses, principally with respect to our interventional urology products, and higher administrative costs. The increases were partially offset by a decrease in contingent consideration expense resulting from a change in the estimated fair value of our contingent consideration liabilities and the impact of favorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.

The increase in research and development expenses for the three months ended September 29, 2019 compared to the prior year period was primarily attributable to expenses incurred by our EMEA segment. Additionally, the increase in research and development expenses for the nine months ended September 29, 2019 compared to the prior period was primarily the result of expenses incurred in connection with our interventional product portfolio.
Restructuring and impairment charges
Anticipated charges and pre-tax savings related to restructuring programs and other similar cost savings initiatives
We have ongoing restructuring programs primarily related to the consolidation of our manufacturing operations (referred to as our 2019, 2018 and 2014 Footprint realignment plans). We also have similar ongoing activities to relocate certain manufacturing operations within our OEM segment (the "OEM initiative") that do not meet the
34


criteria for a restructuring program under applicable accounting guidance; nevertheless, the activities should result in cost savings (we expect only minimal costs to be incurred in connection with the OEM initiative). With respect to our currently ongoing restructuring programs and the OEM initiative, the table below summarizes charges incurred or estimated to be incurred and estimated annual pre-tax savings to be realized as follows: (1) with respect to charges (a) the estimated total charges that will have been incurred once the restructuring programs and OEM initiative are completed; (b) the charges incurred through December 31, 2018; and (c) the estimated charges to be incurred from January 1, 2019 through the last anticipated completion date of the restructuring programs and OEM initiative, December 31, 2026 and (2) with respect to estimated annual pre-tax savings, (a) the estimated total annual pre-tax savings to be realized once the restructuring programs and OEM initiative are completed; (b) the estimated annual pre-tax savings realized based on the progress of the restructuring programs and OEM initiative through December 31, 2018; and (c) the estimated additional annual pre-tax savings to be realized from January 1, 2019 through the last anticipated completion date of the restructuring programs and the OEM initiative, December 31, 2026.

Estimated charges and pre-tax savings are subject to change based on, among other things, the nature and timing of restructuring activities and similar activities, changes in the scope of restructuring programs and the OEM initiative, unanticipated expenditures and other developments, the effect of additional acquisitions or dispositions, the failure to realize anticipated savings from a supply contract related to a component included in certain kits sold by our Americas segment and other factors that were not reflected in the assumptions made by management in previously estimating restructuring and restructuring related charges and estimated pre-tax savings. Moreover, estimated pre-tax savings constituting efficiencies with respect to increased costs that otherwise would have resulted from business acquisitions involve, among other things, assumptions regarding the cost structure and integration of businesses that previously were not administered by our management, which are subject to a particularly high degree of risk and uncertainty. It is likely that estimates of charges and pre-tax savings will change from time to time, and the table below reflects changes from amounts previously estimated. In addition, the table below does not include estimated charges and pre-tax savings related to substantially completed programs. For example, the 2017 Vascular Solutions integration program, the 2017 EMEA program, the 2016 Footprint realignment plan and other 2016 restructuring programs are excluded from the table below because they were substantially completed prior to or during 2019. Additional details, including estimated charges expected to be incurred in connection with our restructuring programs, are described in Note 5 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report.

Pre-tax savings also can be affected by increases or decreases in sales volumes generated by the businesses subject to the consolidation of manufacturing operations; such variations in revenues can increase or decrease pre-tax savings generated by the consolidation of manufacturing operations. For example, an increase in sales volumes generated by the affected businesses, although likely increasing manufacturing costs, may generate additional savings with respect to costs that otherwise would have been incurred if the manufacturing operations were not consolidated.

$63 - $73    $21    $42 - $52   
Total annual pre-tax savings $69 - $80    $22    $47 - $58   

(1)Restructuring related charges represent costs that are directly related to restructuring programs and principally constitute costs to transfer manufacturing operations to existing lower-cost locations, project management costs and accelerated depreciation, as well as a charge that is expected to be imposed by a taxing authority as a result of our exit from facilities in the authority's jurisdiction. Most of these charges (other than the tax charge) are expected to be recognized as cost of goods sold.
35


(2)Substantially all the pre-tax savings are expected to result in reductions to cost of goods sold. As previously disclosed, during 2016, in connection with our execution of the 2014 Footprint realignment plan, we implemented changes to medication delivery devices included in certain of our kits, which are expected to result in increased product costs (and therefore reduce the annual savings we anticipated at the inception of the program). However, we also expect to achieve improved pricing on these kits that will offset the increased costs, resulting in estimated annual increased revenues of $3 million to $4 million, which is not reflected in the table above. Since 2017, we have realized an aggregate benefit of $2.4 million resulting from this incremental pricing. More recently, during the fourth quarter of 2017, we entered into an agreement with an alternate provider for the development and supply of a component to be included in certain kits sold by our Americas segment. The agreement will result in increased development costs but is expected to reduce the cost of the component supply, once the supply becomes commercially available, as compared to the costs incurred with respect to our current suppliers. Therefore, we anticipate a net savings from the agreement, which is reflected in the table above.
2019 Footprint realignment plan
In February 2019, we initiated the 2019 Footprint realignment plan. These actions are expected to be substantially completed during 2022.
We estimate that we will incur aggregate pre-tax restructuring and restructuring related charges in connection with the 2019 Footprint realignment plan of $56 million to $70 million, of which, we expect $21 million to be incurred in 2019, with most of the balance expected to be incurred prior to the end of 2021. We estimate that $53 million to $66 million of these charges will result in cash outlays, of which, $7 million is expected to be made in 2019, with most of the balance expected to be made by the end of 2021. Additionally, we expect to incur $29 million to $35 million in aggregate capital expenditures under the plan, of which $19 million is expected to be incurred during 2019, with most of the balance expected to be incurred by the end of 2021.
We expect to begin realizing plan-related savings in 2021 and expect to achieve annual pre-tax savings of $12 million to $14 million once the plan is fully implemented, which will benefit all of our segments except OEM.

Restructuring and impairment charges $ 1.3    $ 19.2    $ 20.3    $ 77.6   
Restructuring and impairment charges for the three months ended September 29, 2019 primarily consisted of termination benefits (net of credits resulting from changes in estimates) related to several restructuring programs.
Restructuring and impairment charges for the nine months ended September 29, 2019 primarily related to $11.8 million in termination benefits mostly incurred in connection with the 2019 Footprint realignment plan and $6.9 million in impairment charges related to our decision to abandon certain intellectual property and other assets associated with our interventional product portfolio.

The effective income tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2019 was (132.3)% and (48.4)%, respectively, and (2.3)% and 11.8% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively. The effective income tax rates for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2019 reflect a discrete tax benefit of $129 million resulting from a non-U.S. legal entity restructuring that eliminated the requirement to provide for foreign withholding taxes on the future repatriation of certain non-permanently reinvested earnings. The effective tax rates for the three and nine ended September 30, 2018 include a tax benefit associated
36


with asset impairment charges. In addition, the income tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 reflects non-deductible termination benefits and other costs incurred in connection with the 2018 Footprint realignment plan as described in Note 5 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report.

Comparison of the three and nine months ended September 29, 2019 and September 30, 2018
Americas
Americas net revenues for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2019 increased $35.8 million, or 10.6%, and $98.8 million, or 10.0%, respectively, compared to the prior year periods. The increases were primarily attributable to increases in sales volumes of existing products of $29.9 million and $81.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2019, respectively, and increases in new products sales in both periods.
Americas operating profit for the three months ended September 29, 2019 increased $12.8 million, or 18.7%, compared to the prior year period. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in gross profit resulting from higher sales partially offset by higher operating expenses, principally selling expenses incurred to support higher sales, as well as other administrative expenses.
Americas operating profit for the nine months ended September 29, 2019 increased $54.7 million, or 31.3%, compared to the prior year period. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in gross profit resulting from higher sales partially offset by higher operating expenses, primarily selling expenses incurred to support the higher sales.
EMEA
EMEA net revenues for the three months ended September 29, 2019 increased $0.9 million, or 0.7%, compared to the prior year period. The increase was primarily attributable to increases in sales volumes of existing products of $3.4 million, new product sales and net revenues generated by acquired businesses, which were partially offset by unfavorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates of $5.9 million.
EMEA net revenues for the nine months ended September 29, 2019 decreased $10.8 million, or 2.4%, compared to the prior year period. The decrease was primarily attributable to unfavorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates of $27.0 million partially offset by increases in sales volumes of existing products and new product sales as well as net revenues generated by acquired businesses.
37


EMEA operating profit for the three months ended September 29, 2019 decreased $0.1 million, or 0.4%, compared to the prior year period. The decrease was primarily attributable to higher operating expenses partially offset by the gross profit generated from higher sales and favorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.
EMEA operating profit for the nine months ended September 29, 2019 decreased $10.5 million, or 13.2%, compared to the prior year period. The decrease was primarily attributable to higher operating expenses and unfavorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates partially offset by the gross profit generated from higher sales.
Asia
Asia net revenues for the three months ended September 29, 2019 increased $1.4 million, or 1.7%, compared to the prior year period. The increase was primarily attributable to price increases of $1.7 million and an increase in sales volumes of existing products partially offset by unfavorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rate of $2.4 million.
Asia net revenues for the nine months ended September 29, 2019 increased $6.8 million, or 3.2%, compared to the prior year period. The increase was primarily attributable to a $8.0 million increase in sales volumes of existing products and, to a lesser extent, price increases, an increase in new product sales and net revenues generated by acquired businesses. The increases were partially offset by unfavorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates of $9.9 million.
Asia operating profit for the three months ended September 29, 2019 increased $0.6 million, or 3.0%, compared to the prior year period. The increase was primarily attributable to the gross profit generated from higher sales partially offset by increased tariffs in China and higher operating expenses.
Asia operating profit for the nine months ended September 29, 2019 decreased $4.3 million, or 7.7%, compared to the prior year period. The decrease was primarily attributable to the impact of increased tariffs in China, higher operating expenses and unfavorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. The decreases in operating profit were partially offset by the gross profit generated from higher sales.
OEM
OEM net revenues for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2019 increased $0.5 million, or 1.1%, and $12.8 million, or 8.4%, respectively, compared to the prior year periods. The increases in both periods were primarily attributable to increases in sales volumes of existing products.
OEM operating profit for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2019 increased $1.0 million, or 6.4%, and $5.6 million, or 14.9%, respectively, compared to the prior year period. The increases in both periods were primarily attributable to increases in gross profit resulting from higher sales partially offset by higher operating costs.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
We believe our cash flow from operations, available cash and cash equivalents and borrowings under our revolving credit facility will enable us to fund our operating requirements, capital expenditures and debt obligations for the next 12 months and the foreseeable future. We have net cash provided by United States based operating activities as well as non-United States sources of cash available to help fund our debt service requirements in the United States. We manage our worldwide cash requirements by monitoring the funds available among our subsidiaries and determining the extent to which we can access those funds on a cost effective basis.
To date, we have not experienced significant payment defaults by our customers, and we have sufficient lending commitments in place to enable us to fund our anticipated additional operating needs.
Cash Flows
Cash flows from operating activities from continuing operations provided net cash of approximately $289.2 million for the nine months ended September 29, 2019 as compared to $302.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The $13.7 million decrease was primarily attributable to contingent consideration payments of $26.1 million and the net unfavorable impact of changes in working capital partially offset by favorable operating results. The net unfavorable impact from changes in working capital was primarily due to a net increase in inventories and a net decrease in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities.
38


The increase in inventories for the nine months ended September 29, 2019 was $53.3 million compared to an increase of $19.7 million for nine months ended September 30, 2018. The net increase in inventories for the nine months ended September 29, 2019 as compared to the corresponding period in 2018 was attributable to higher inventory purchases to support ongoing business growth and to achieve desired safety stock levels. The net decrease in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities for the nine months ended September 29, 2019 was $31.6 million compared to an increase of $54.6 million for nine months ended September 30, 2018. The decrease was attributable principally to a decrease in restructuring activity related to the 2018 Footprint realignment plan partially offset by higher payroll related accruals.
Net cash used in investing activities from continuing operations was $73.6 million for the nine months ended September 29, 2019, which included capital expenditures of $83.8 million partially offset by proceeds from cross-currency swap agreements designated as net investment hedges of $8.3 million.
Net cash used in financing activities from continuing operations was $310.5 million for the nine months ended September 29, 2019, which reflected a net decrease in borrowings of $160.5 million, contingent consideration payments of $112.0 million and dividend payments of $47.1 million.
Borrowings

On October 31, 2019, we issued a notice of redemption to holders of our 2024 Notes. Pursuant to the notice of redemption, the 2024 Notes will be redeemed on November 15, 2019 at a redemption price equal to 102.625% of the principal amount of the 2019 Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the Redemption Date (the "Redemption Price"). We plan to fund the redemption using available borrowings under our revolving credit agreement, and the notice of redemption provides that the redemption is subject to the condition that we are able to borrow funds under its revolving credit agreement on the Redemption Date in an amount sufficient to pay the Redemption Price.

On April 5, 2019, we entered into an amended and restated credit agreement (the "Credit Agreement"), which provides for a $1.0 billion revolving credit facility and a $700 million term loan facility, each of which matures on April 5, 2024. The Credit Agreement replaces a previous credit agreement under which we were provided a $1.0 billion credit facility and a $750 million term loan facility, due 2022 (the “prior term loan”). The $700 million term loan facility under the Credit Agreement principally was applied against the remaining $675 million principal balance of the prior term loan.

At our option, loans under the Credit Agreement will bear interest at a rate equal to adjusted LIBOR plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.125% to 2.00% or at an alternate base rate, which is defined as the highest of (i) the “Prime Rate” in the U.S. last quoted by The Wall Street Journal, (ii) 0.50% above the greater of the federal funds rate and the rate comprised of both overnight federal funds and overnight eurodollar borrowings and (iii) 1.00% above adjusted LIBOR for a one month interest period, plus in each case an applicable margin ranging from 0.125% to 1.00%, in each case subject to adjustments based on our consolidated total net leverage ratio (generally, Consolidated Total Funded Indebtedness (which is net of “Qualified Cash”), as defined in the Credit Agreement on the date of determination to Consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the Credit Agreement, for the four most recent fiscal quarters ending on or preceding the date of determination). Overdue loans will bear interest at the rate otherwise applicable to such loans plus 2.00%.

The Credit Agreement contains covenants that, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, place limitations on our ability, and the ability of our subsidiaries, to incur additional indebtedness; create additional liens; enter into a merger, consolidation or amalgamation or other defined "fundamental changes," dispose of certain assets, make certain investments or acquisitions, pay dividends, or make other restricted payments, enter into swap agreements or enter into transactions with our affiliates. Additionally, the Credit Agreement contains financial covenants that, subject to specified exceptions, require us to maintain a consolidated total net leverage ratio of not more than 4.50 to 1.00 and a consolidated interest coverage ratio (generally, Consolidated EBITDA for the four most recent fiscal quarters ending on or preceding the date of determination to Consolidated Interest Expense, as defined in the Credit Agreement, paid in cash for such period) of not less than 3.50 to 1.00.

For additional information regarding the Credit Agreement, see Note 9 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report.

The indentures governing our 5.25% Senior Notes due 2024 (the “2024 Notes”) and 4.875% Senior Notes due 2026 (the "2026 Notes") contain covenants that, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, limit or restrict our ability, and the ability of our subsidiaries, to incur additional debt or issue preferred stock or other

disqualified stock, create liens, merge, consolidate, or dispose of certain assets, pay dividends, make investments or make other restricted payments, or enter into transactions with our affiliates. The indenture governing our 4.625% Senior Notes due 2027 (the “2027 Notes”) contains covenants that, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, limit or restrict our ability, and the ability of our subsidiaries, to create liens; consolidate, merge or dispose of certain assets; and enter into sale leaseback transactions.
As of September 29, 2019, we were in compliance with these requirements. The obligations under the Credit Agreement, the 2024 Notes, the 2026 Notes and the 2027 Notes are guaranteed (subject to certain exceptions) by substantially all of our material domestic subsidiaries, and the obligations under the Credit Agreement are (subject to certain exceptions and limitations) secured by a lien on substantially all of the assets owned by us and each guarantor.
Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions 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 reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.
In our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, we provided disclosure regarding our critical accounting estimates, which are reflective of significant judgments and uncertainties, are important to the presentation of our financial condition and results of operations and could potentially result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions.
New Accounting Standards
See Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report for a discussion of recently issued accounting guidance, including estimated effects, if any, of adoption of the guidance on our financial statements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
There have been no material changes to the information set forth in Part II, Item 7A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 and in Part I, Item 3 of the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2019.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report are functioning effectively to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. A controls system cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.
(b) Change in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
No change in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II OTHER INFORMATION
 
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
We are party to various lawsuits and claims arising in the normal course of business. These lawsuits and claims include actions involving product liability and product warranty, commercial disputes, intellectual property, contract, employment, environmental and other matters. As of September 29, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we have accrued liabilities of approximately $0.2 million and $0.6 million, respectively, in connection with these matters, representing our best estimate of the cost within the range of estimated possible loss that will be incurred to resolve these matters. Based on information currently available, advice of counsel, established reserves and other resources, we do not believe that the outcome of any outstanding lawsuits or claims is likely to be, individually or in the aggregate, material to our business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. However, in the event of unexpected further developments, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of these matters, or other similar matters, if unfavorable, may be materially adverse to our business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

Item 1A. Risk Factors
See the information set forth in Part I, Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. There have been no significant changes in risk factors for the quarter ended September 29, 2019, except as follows:
Disruptions in sterilization of our products by third-party vendors or regulatory initiatives further restricting the use of ethylene oxide in sterilization facilities could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
Many of our products require sterilization prior to sale, and we utilize third-party vendors to sterilize our products. A common method for sterilizing medical products involves the use of ethylene oxide, which is listed as a hazardous air pollutant under the Clean Air Act, as amended, and emissions of which are regulated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and other regulatory authorities. One of our contract sterilizers, Sterigenics U.S., LLC, uses ethylene oxide in its sterilization process, including at its facility in Smyrna, Cobb County, Georgia, which has sterilized some of our surgical, intermittent catheter and OEM products. In August 2019, the Georgia Environmental Protection Division (EPD) approved Sterigenics’ plans to install new controls designed to reduce ethylene oxide emissions at the Smyrna facility, and, thereafter, Sterigenics commenced installation of the new controls. In October 2019, Cobb County officials revoked a construction permit relating to the Smyrna facility and issued a formal notice requiring Sterigenics to obtain a new certificate of occupancy for the facility, resulting in the continued suspension of operations at the Smyrna facility, which Sterigenics previously had suspended during the installation period. In addition, the EPD issued a notice to Sterigenics requesting additional information and requiring that additional emissions testing be conducted at the facility. As a result of these developments, our ability to provide the affected products to our customers has been impaired. We are pursuing various measures to enable us to continue to provide the affected products to our customers, including identifying alternate sterilization facilities, provisioning substitute products and instituting targeted global inventory management procedures. However, we cannot provide assurance that any of these initiatives will be successful. In particular, our ability to utilize alternate sterilization facilities may be delayed due to regulations and requirements of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and other regulatory authorities, as well as due to capacity constraints. Based on currently available information, we believe that the suspension of operations at Sterigenics’ Smyrna facility will adversely affect our revenues by approximately $9 million during the fourth quarter of 2019. In addition, while we are working to identify alternate sterilization facilities for the affected product, if operations at the Smyrna facility remain suspended and we are unable to find adequate sterilization capacity at an alternate facility or facilities, we expect the suspension of operations at the Smyrna facility will continue to adversely affect our revenues in 2020.
In addition, on October 10, 2019, the attorneys general of 15 states and the District of Columbia sent a letter to the EPA urging that the EPA promptly propose and finalize stricter standards for ethylene oxide emissions. Among other things, the attorneys general stated that the current EPA standard for ethylene oxide fails to adequately protect workers and communities, and that the use of ethylene oxide, particularly in the medical device sterilization industry, must be reduced. We are unable to predict the manner in which the EPA will respond to the letter. Any additional regulatory restrictions on the emission of ethylene oxide by sterilization facilities might impair our ability to provide sufficient quantities of sterilized products to our customers and compel us to seek sterilization alternatives that do not entail the use of ethylene oxide. We cannot assure that we would be able to identify such alternatives.

41


In the event we were to experience any further disruptions in our ability to sterilize our products, whether due to capacity constraints or regulatory or other impediments (including, among other things, regulatory initiatives directed generally to sterilization facilities that utilize ethylene oxide), or we are unable to transition to alternative facilities in a timely or cost effective manner, we could experience a material adverse impact with respect to our results of operations and financial condition.
