Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

Note 1. General

The accompanying Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements of The Cooper Companies, Inc. and its subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP) for interim financial information and with the requirements of Regulation S-X, Rule 10-01 for financial statements required to be filed as a part of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Unless the context requires otherwise, terms "the Company", "we", "us", and "our" are used to refer collectively to The Cooper Companies, Inc. and its subsidiaries.

The accompanying Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements and related notes are unaudited and should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company and related notes as contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2024. The Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) and accruals necessary in the judgment of management for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented.

Accounting Policies

There have been no material changes to our significant accounting policies described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2024.

Estimates

The preparation of Consolidated Condensed 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 net sales and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company continually monitors and evaluates the estimates used as additional information becomes available. Adjustments will be made to these provisions periodically to reflect new facts and circumstances that may indicate that historical experience may not be indicative of current and/or future results.

Accounting Pronouncements Issued But Not Yet Adopted

In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires additional disclosure of the nature of expenses included in the income statement. The standard requires disclosures about specific types of expenses included in the expense captions presented in the income statement. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The requirements should be applied on a prospective basis while retrospective application is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this guidance will have on our disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. This ASU requires public entities to disclose specific categories in the effective tax rate reconciliation and additional information for reconciling items that exceed a quantitative threshold. The guidance also requires all disaggregated information pertaining to taxes paid, net of refunds received, for federal, state and foreign income taxes. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with the option to apply prospectively or retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures and expect to adopt this ASU for the fiscal year ending October 31, 2026.

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which enhances the disclosures required for operating segments in our annual and interim consolidated financial statements. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, which means it will be effective from our fiscal year ended October 31, 2025, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning from November 1, 2025, and will be applied retrospectively. We expect the adoption of this standard to expand our disclosures related to our operating segments beginning with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending October 31, 2025.

No other recently issued accounting pronouncements had or are expected to have a material impact on our Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements.

Note 2. Acquisitions and Joint Venture

All acquisitions were funded by cash generated from operations or facility borrowings.

Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

On August 1, 2024, CooperSurgical completed the acquisition of obp Surgical, a U.S.-based medical device company with a suite of single-use cordless surgical retractors with integrated light source and evacuation channels. The purchase price of the acquisition was $100.0 million. Assets acquired consisted primarily of $45.6 million of developed technology, $8.5 million of customer relationships, $7.7 million of inventory, $5.4 million of other net assets, and $50.6 million of goodwill, which is primarily related to expected synergies from combined operations.

On June 7, 2024, CooperSurgical acquired a fertility company that specializes in sperm separation devices. The purchase price of the acquisition was $33.5 million. The Company accounted for this acquisition as an asset acquisition, whereby the Company allocated the total cost of the acquisition to the net assets acquired on the basis of their estimated relative fair values on the acquisition date. The primary asset acquired in this asset acquisition is a composite intangible asset of $39.6 million. The value of the composite intangible asset reflects, in addition to the purchase price, a deferred tax liability of $8.3 million arising from book/tax basis differences generated upon the acquisition. The composite intangible asset encompasses the portfolio of intellectual property associated with the sperm separation devices including the patents, trademarks, customer relationships, regulatory approvals, and commercialization rights, which have been valued as a single composite intangible asset as they are inextricably linked.

On November 1, 2023, CooperSurgical completed the acquisition of select Cook Medical assets focused primarily on the obstetrics, doppler monitoring, and gynecology surgery markets. The purchase price of the acquisition was $300.0 million, with $200.0 million paid at closing and two cash payments of $50.0 million each to be paid on November 1, 2024 and November 1, 2025. The present value of the acquisition purchase price was $291.6 million, which is included in the Company's balance sheet. Assets acquired primarily comprised of $157.9 million of technologies, $26.6 million of customer relationship related intangibles, and $107.2 million of goodwill. The goodwill is deductible for tax purposes.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These include statements relating to plans, prospects, goals, strategies, future actions, events or performance and other statements which are other than statements of historical fact, including: statements regarding the expected impact of global macroeconomic conditions, and statements regarding acquisitions (including the acquired companies' financial position, market position, product development and business strategy, expected cost synergies, expected timing and benefits of the transaction, difficulties in integrating entities or operations, as well as estimates of our and the acquired entities' future expenses, sales and earnings per share) that are forward-looking. In addition, all statements regarding anticipated growth in our net sales, anticipated effects of any product recalls, anticipated market conditions, planned product launches, restructuring or business transition expectations, regulatory plans, and expected results of operations and integration of any acquisition are forward-looking. To identify these statements, look for words like “believes,” “outlook,” “probable,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “seeks,” “intends,” “plans,” “estimates” or “anticipates” and similar words or phrases. Forward-looking statements necessarily depend on assumptions, data or methods that may be incorrect or imprecise and are subject to risks and uncertainties. Among the factors that could cause our actual results and future actions to differ materially from those described in forward-looking statements are:

•Compliance costs and potential liability in connection with U.S. and foreign laws and health care regulations pertaining to privacy and security of personal information, such as Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) in the U.S. and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) requirements in Europe, including but not limited to those resulting from data security breaches.

•A major disruption in the operations of our manufacturing, accounting and financial reporting, research and development, distribution facilities or raw material supply chain due to challenges associated with integration of acquisitions, man-made or natural disasters, pandemic conditions, cybersecurity incidents or other causes.

•A major disruption in the operations of our manufacturing, accounting and financial reporting, research and development or distribution facilities due to the failure to perform by third-party vendors, including cloud computing providers or other technological problems, including any related to our information systems maintenance, enhancements or new system deployments, integrations or upgrades.

•A successful cybersecurity attack which could interrupt or disrupt our information technology systems, or those of our third-party service providers, or cause the loss of confidential or protected data.

•Market consolidation of large customers globally through mergers or acquisitions resulting in a larger proportion or concentration of our business being derived from fewer customers.

•Disruptions in supplies of raw materials, particularly components used to manufacture our silicone hydrogel lenses.

•New U.S. and foreign government laws and regulations, and changes in existing laws, regulations and enforcement guidance, which affect areas of our operations including, but not limited to, those affecting the health care industry,

and Results of Operations

Results of Operations

In this section, we discuss the results of our operations for the first quarter of fiscal 2025 ended January 31, 2025, compared with the same period of fiscal 2024. We discuss our cash flows and current financial condition under “Capital Resources and Liquidity.” Within the tables presented, percentages are calculated based on the underlying whole-dollar amounts and, therefore, may not recalculate exactly from the rounded numbers used for disclosure purposes.

Outlook

We are optimistic about the long-term prospects for the worldwide contact lens and general health care markets, and the resilience of and growth prospects for our businesses and products. However, we face significant risks and uncertainties in our global operating environment as further described in the Part II, Item 1A "Risk Factors" herein. These risks include uncertain global and regional business, political and economic conditions, including but not limited to those associated with man-made or natural disasters, pandemic conditions, inflation, foreign exchange rate fluctuations, regulatory developments, supply chain disruptions, and escalating global trade barriers. These risks and uncertainties have adversely affected our sales, cash flow and performance in the past and could further adversely affect our future sales, cash flow and performance.

CooperVision - We compete in the worldwide contact lens market with our spherical, toric, multifocal, and toric multifocal contact lenses offered in materials like silicone hydrogel Aquaform technology. We believe that there will be lower contact lens wearer dropout rates as technology improves and enhances the wearing experience through a combination of improved designs and materials and the growth of preferred modalities such as single-use and monthly wearing options. CooperVision also competes in the myopia management and specialty eye care contact lens markets with myopia management contact lenses using its ActivControl technology and with products such as orthokeratology (ortho-k) and scleral lenses. CooperVision has U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval for its MiSight 1 day lens, which is the first and only FDA-approved product indicated to slow the progression of myopia in children with treatment initiated between the ages of 8-12. Further, CooperVision has Chinese National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) approval for its MiSight 1 day lens for use in China. CooperVision is focused on greater worldwide market penetration using recently introduced products, and we continue to expand our presence in existing and emerging markets, including through acquisitions.

Our ability to compete successfully with a full range of silicone hydrogel products is an important factor to achieving our desired future levels of sales growth and profitability. CooperVision manufactures and markets a wide variety of silicone hydrogel contact lenses. Our single-use silicone hydrogel product franchises, clariti, MyDay and MyDay Energys, remain a focus as we expect increasing demand for these products, as well as future single-use products, as the global contact lens market continues to shift to this modality. Outside of single-use, the Biofinity and Avaira Vitality product families comprise our focus in the FRP, or frequent replacement product, market which encompasses the monthly and two-week modalities. Included in this segment are unique products such as Biofinity Energys, which helps individuals with digital eye fatigue.

CooperSurgical - Our CooperSurgical business competes in the fertility and women's health care market through its diversified portfolio of products and services, including fertility products and services, medical devices, cryostorage (such as cord blood and cord tissue storage) and contraception. CooperSurgical has established its market presence and distribution system by developing products and acquiring companies, products and services that complement its business model.

Competitive factors in the segments in which CooperSurgical competes include technological and scientific advances, product quality and availability, price and customer service (including response time and effective communication of product information to physicians, consumers, fertility clinics and hospitals).

We protect our products through patents and trademark registrations, both in the United States and in international markets. We monitor competitive products trademark use worldwide and, when determined appropriate, we have enforced and plan to continue to enforce and defend our patent and trademark rights. We also rely upon trade secrets, licenses, technical know-how and continuing technological innovation to develop and maintain our competitive position.

Net Sales

The contact lens market has two major product categories:

•Toric and multifocal lenses including lenses that, in addition to correcting near- and farsightedness, address more complex visual defects such as astigmatism and presbyopia by adding optical properties of cylinder and axis, which correct for irregularities in the shape of the cornea; and

•Spherical lenses, including lenses that correct near- and farsightedness uncomplicated by more complex visual defects, myopia management lenses, which slow the progression of and correct myopia in age-appropriate children, and other specialty lenses.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition

and Results of Operations

In the three months ended January 31, 2025, the growth experienced across all categories was partially offset by unfavorable foreign exchange rate fluctuations of approximately $14.7 million.

•Toric and multifocal grew primarily through the success of Biofinity and MyDay.

•Sphere, other grew primarily through MiSight and MyDay.

•"Other" products represented less than 1% of net sales in the three months ended January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Foreign exchange loss	$	3.0	$	1.2
Other (income) expense, net	(0.3)		2.0
	$	2.7	$	3.2

Foreign exchange loss was primarily associated with the relative weakening of the U.S. dollar against foreign currencies and the effect on intercompany receivables during the three months ended January 31, 2025.

Other (income) expense, net was a gain of $0.3 million in the three months ended January 31, 2025, compared to a loss of $2.0 million in three months ended January 31, 2024, primarily due to a decrease in loss on minority investments.

Provision for Income Taxes

The effective tax rates for the three months ended January 31, 2025 and January 31, 2024 were 32.0% and 32.4%, respectively. The decrease was primarily due to changes in unrecognized tax benefits and changes in the geographic composition of pre-tax earnings, partially offset by a decrease in excess tax benefits from share-based compensation.

The increase in working capital was primarily due to a decrease in accounts payable due to timing of payments and an increase in inventories, offset by increases in employee compensation benefits and short-term debt.

Operating Cash Flow

Cash provided by operating activities in the first three months of fiscal 2025 increased compared to the first three months of fiscal 2024, primarily due to increases in net income and net changes in other non-cash items and operating capital. The net changes in operating capital included an increase in cash collection and an increase in accrued liabilities, offset by an increase in inventories.

Investing Cash Flow

Cash used in investing activities in the first three months of fiscal 2025 decreased compared to the first three months of fiscal 2024, primarily attributable to $200 million cash paid for the Cook Medical acquisition in the first three months of fiscal 2024, and a decrease in purchases of property, plant and equipment.

Financing Cash Flow

Cash used in financing activities in the first three months of fiscal 2025 was primarily attributable to repayments on the revolving credit and the first installment payment related to the Cook Medical acquisition.

Cash provided by financing activities in the first three months of fiscal 2024 was primarily attributable to $200.0 million drawn on the revolving credit to pay for the Cook Medical acquisition.

The following is a summary of the maximum commitments and the net amounts available to us under different credit facilities as of January 31, 2025:


(In millions)	Facility Limit		Outstanding Borrowings		Outstanding Letters of Credit		Total Amount Available		Maturity Date
Revolving Credit:
2024 Revolving Credit	$	2,300.0	$	990.2	$	4.7	$	1,305.1	May 1, 2029
Term loan:
2021 Term Loan	1,500.0		1,500.0		n/a		—		December 17, 2026
Total	$	3,800.0	$	2,490.2	$	4.7	$	1,305.1

As of January 31, 2025, the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants. On May 1, 2024, the Company entered into a Revolving Credit Agreement (the 2024 Credit Agreement). The Company drew on the 2024 Credit Agreement to fully repay borrowings outstanding under the 2020 Term Loan and 2020 Revolving Credit Facility and terminated the 2020 Credit Agreement. See Note 5. Financing Arrangements of the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements for further information.

We have re-evaluated our operating cash flows and cash requirements and continue to believe that current cash, cash equivalents, future cash flow from operating activities and cash available under our 2024 Credit Agreement will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs, including working capital needs, capital expenditures and contractual obligations for at least 12 months from the issuance date of the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements included in this quarterly report. To the extent additional funds are necessary to meet our liquidity needs such as for acquisitions, share repurchases or other activities as we execute our business strategy, we anticipate that additional funds could be obtained through the incurrence of additional

indebtedness, additional equity financings or a combination of these potential sources of funds; however, such financing may not be available on favorable terms, or at all.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk

We are exposed to market risks that relate principally to changes in interest rates and foreign currency fluctuations. We do not enter into derivative financial instrument transactions for speculative purposes.

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

We operate multiple foreign subsidiaries that manufacture and market our products worldwide. As a result, our earnings, cash flow and financial position are exposed to foreign currency risk from foreign currency denominated receivables and payables, sales transactions, capital expenditures and net investment in certain foreign operations. Most of our operations outside the United States have their local currency as their functional currency. We have exposure to multiple foreign currencies, including, among others, the British pound, Euro and Japanese yen. We have taken steps to minimize our balance sheet exposure by entering into foreign currency forward contracts to minimize the short-term impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on certain trade and intercompany receivables and payables.

At January 31, 2025, a uniform hypothetical 10% increase or decrease in the foreign currency exchange rates in comparison to the value of the U.S. dollar would have resulted in a corresponding increase or decrease of approximately $29.3 million in operating income for the fiscal quarter ended January 31, 2025. See Note 12. Financial Derivatives and Hedging of the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements for further information.

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to risks associated with changes in interest rates, as the interest rates on our revolving lines of credit and term loans may vary with the federal funds rate and SOFR. As of January 31, 2025, we had outstanding debt for an aggregate carrying amount of $2.5 billion. We have entered, and in the future may enter, into interest rate swaps to manage interest rate risk.

Our ultimate realized gain or loss with respect to interest rate fluctuations will depend on interest rates, the exposures that arise during the period and our hedging strategies at that time. As an example, if interest rates were to increase or decrease by 1% or 100 basis points, the quarterly interest expense would not have a material impact, based on average debt outstanding, after consideration of our interest rate swap contracts, during the first quarter of fiscal 2025. See Note 5. Financing Arrangements of the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements for further information.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Based on management’s evaluation (with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (our Principal Executive Officer) and Chief Financial Officer (our Principal Financial Officer)), as of the end of the period covered by this report, due to the material weakness described below, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the Exchange Act)) are not effective as of January 31, 2025 to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As reported in Part II, Item 9A. "Controls and Procedures" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2024, the Company previously identified a material weakness in information technology (IT) general controls for the U.S. operations within the CooperSurgical segment, related to the implementation and maintenance of certain enterprise resource planning systems (ERP) during fiscal 2024. The material weakness resulted from not having a sufficient complement of its personnel, inadequate training of personnel and ineffective risk assessment processes to identify and timely respond to the risks related to change management, user control monitoring and segregation of duties in the affected IT environment. Manual controls that rely on system-generated data or reports from the affected IT environment or process level automated controls in the affected IT environment were ineffective because they could have been adversely impacted.

In response to the material weakness, management, with oversight of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, has begun to implement steps to remediate the material weakness. Our internal control remediation efforts include the following:

•Enhancing risk assessment and procedures over our IT general controls for the affected environments;

•Developing the skill sets of employees and additional training programs addressing IT general controls and policies with a focus on those related to change management, user access and segregation of duties over IT systems impacting financial reporting;

THE COOPER COMPANIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

•Enhancing controls supporting change management to ensure systems’ integrity as well as user access monitoring controls to enforce appropriate system access and segregation of duties.

We are committed to ensuring that our internal control over financial reporting are designed and operating effectively. Management believes the efforts taken to date and the planned remediation will improve the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. While we continue making progress with these remediation efforts, the controls must be operating effectively for a sufficient period of time and be tested by management in order to consider them remediated and conclude that the design is effective to address the risks of material misstatement.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Except as set forth above, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rules 13a-15(d) and 15d-15(d) of the Exchange Act during our first quarter of fiscal 2025, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
General	Note 1. General The accompanying Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements of The Cooper Companies, Inc. and its subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP) for interim financial information and with the requirements of Regulation S-X, Rule 10-01 for financial statements required to be filed as a part of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Unless the context requires otherwise, terms "the Company", "we", "us", and "our" are used to refer collectively to The Cooper Companies, Inc. and its subsidiaries. The accompanying Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements and related notes are unaudited and should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company and related notes as contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2024. The Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) and accruals necessary in the judgment of management for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. Accounting Policies There have been no material changes to our significant accounting policies described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2024. Estimates The preparation of Consolidated Condensed 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 net sales and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company continually monitors and evaluates the estimates used as additional information becomes available. Adjustments will be made to these provisions periodically to reflect new facts and circumstances that may indicate that historical experience may not be indicative of current and/or future results. Accounting Pronouncements Issued But Not Yet Adopted In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires additional disclosure of the nature of expenses included in the income statement. The standard requires disclosures about specific types of expenses included in the expense captions presented in the income statement. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The requirements should be applied on a prospective basis while retrospective application is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this guidance will have on our disclosures. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. This ASU requires public entities to disclose specific categories in the effective tax rate reconciliation and additional information for reconciling items that exceed a quantitative threshold. The guidance also requires all disaggregated information pertaining to taxes paid, net of refunds received, for federal, state and foreign income taxes. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with the option to apply prospectively or retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures and expect to adopt this ASU for the fiscal year ending October 31, 2026. In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which enhances the disclosures required for operating segments in our annual and interim consolidated financial statements. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, which means it will be effective from our fiscal year ended October 31, 2025, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning from November 1, 2025, and will be applied retrospectively. We expect the adoption of this standard to expand our disclosures related to our operating segments beginning with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending October 31, 2025. No other recently issued accounting pronouncements had or are expected to have a material impact on our Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements.

Acquisitions and Joint Venture	Jan. 31, 2025
Business Combination, Asset Acquisition, and Joint Venture Formation [Abstract]
Acquisitions and Joint Venture	Note 2. Acquisitions and Joint Venture All acquisitions were funded by cash generated from operations or facility borrowings. On August 1, 2024, CooperSurgical completed the acquisition of obp Surgical, a U.S.-based medical device company with a suite of single-use cordless surgical retractors with integrated light source and evacuation channels. The purchase price of the acquisition was $100.0 million. Assets acquired consisted primarily of $45.6 million of developed technology, $8.5 million of customer relationships, $7.7 million of inventory, $5.4 million of other net assets, and $50.6 million of goodwill, which is primarily related to expected synergies from combined operations. On June 7, 2024, CooperSurgical acquired a fertility company that specializes in sperm separation devices. The purchase price of the acquisition was $33.5 million. The Company accounted for this acquisition as an asset acquisition, whereby the Company allocated the total cost of the acquisition to the net assets acquired on the basis of their estimated relative fair values on the acquisition date. The primary asset acquired in this asset acquisition is a composite intangible asset of $39.6 million. The value of the composite intangible asset reflects, in addition to the purchase price, a deferred tax liability of $8.3 million arising from book/tax basis differences generated upon the acquisition. The composite intangible asset encompasses the portfolio of intellectual property associated with the sperm separation devices including the patents, trademarks, customer relationships, regulatory approvals, and commercialization rights, which have been valued as a single composite intangible asset as they are inextricably linked. On November 1, 2023, CooperSurgical completed the acquisition of select Cook Medical assets focused primarily on the obstetrics, doppler monitoring, and gynecology surgery markets. The purchase price of the acquisition was $300.0 million, with $200.0 million paid at closing and two cash payments of $50.0 million each to be paid on November 1, 2024 and November 1, 2025. The present value of the acquisition purchase price was $291.6 million, which is included in the Company's balance sheet. Assets acquired primarily comprised of $157.9 million of technologies, $26.6 million of customer relationship related intangibles, and $107.2 million of goodwill. The goodwill is deductible for tax purposes.
