Basis of Presentation
On October 12, 2020 (the "Petition Date"), Mallinckrodt plc and substantially all of its U.S. subsidiaries, including certain subsidiaries of Mallinckrodt plc operating the Specialty Generics business (the "Specialty Generics Subsidiaries") and the Specialty Brands business (the "Specialty Brands Subsidiaries"), and certain of the Company's international subsidiaries (together with the Company, Specialty Generics Subsidiaries and Specialty Brands Subsidiaries, the "Debtors") voluntarily initiated proceedings (the "Chapter 11 Cases") under chapter 11 of title 11 ("Chapter 11") of the United States Code (the "Bankruptcy Code"). On March 2, 2022, the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Bankruptcy Court”) entered an order confirming the fourth amended plan of reorganization (with technical modifications (the "Plan"). Subsequent to the filing of the Chapter 11 Cases, Chapter 11 proceedings commenced by a limited subset of the Debtors were recognized and given effect in Canada, and separately the High Court of Ireland made an order confirming a scheme of arrangement on April 27, 2022, which is based on and consistent in all respects with the Plan (the "Scheme of Arrangement"), that the Scheme of Arrangement would become effective concurrently with the Plan. On June 8, 2022, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order approving a minor modification to the Plan. The Plan and Scheme of Arrangement became effective on June 16, 2022 (the "Effective Date"), and on such date the Company emerged from the Chapter 11 and Irish examinership proceedings.
See Note 2 for further information on the Plan and emergence from Chapter 11.
Upon emergence from Chapter 11, the Company adopted fresh-start accounting in accordance with the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 852 - Reorganizations ("ASC 852"), and became a new entity for financial reporting purposes as of the Effective Date. References to "Successor" relate to the financial position as of June 16, 2022 and results of operations of the reorganized Company subsequent to June 16, 2022, while references to "Predecessor" relate to the financial position prior to June 16, 2022 and results of operations of the Company prior to, and including, June 16, 2022. All emergence-related transactions of the Predecessor were recorded as of June 16, 2022. Accordingly the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the Successor are not comparable to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the Predecessor. See Note 3 for further information.
The Company's significant accounting policies are described within the notes to the financial statements included within the Company's Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021. In connection with the adoption of fresh-start accounting, the Company elected to make an accounting policy change as described below:
Predecessor Contingencies — Legal fees pertaining to asbestos-related matters were estimated and accrued as part of the Company’s projected asbestos liability.
Successor Contingencies — Legal fees pertaining to asbestos matters are expensed as incurred.
This change in accounting policy resulted in a $22.8 million fresh-start adjustment to the asbestos-related liability and a $20.3 million adjustment to the corresponding indemnification receivable.
Also in connection with the adoption of fresh-start accounting, the Company made a change in estimate related to its Specialty Generics' inventory turn calculation. This prospective change is expected to result in the discrete amortization of $20.5 million of capitalized variances through the first quarter of fiscal 2023. The amount recognized in the Successor period was $2.4 million.
The Company also reassessed and updated its product line net sales presentation for its Specialty Generics segment. Beginning with this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended July 1, 2022, the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the updated product line net sales structure for its Specialty Generics segment. Prior year amounts have been recast to conform to current presentation.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in U.S. dollars and in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. ("GAAP"). The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Actual results may differ from those estimates. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries and entities in which they own or control more than 50.0% of the voting shares, or have the ability to control through similar rights. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation and all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation have been included in the results reported. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern.
The results of entities disposed of are included in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements up to the date of disposal, and where appropriate, these operations have been reported in discontinued operations. Divestitures of product lines and businesses not meeting the criteria for discontinued operations have been reflected in operating (loss) income.
The fiscal year end balance sheet data was derived from audited consolidated financial statements, but does not include all of the annual disclosures required by GAAP; accordingly these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited annual consolidated financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 (Predecessor) filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on March 15, 2022.
Fiscal Year
The Company reports its results based on a "52-53 week" year ending on the last Friday of December. The period June 17, 2022 through July 1, 2022 reflects the Successor period, while the period April 2, 2022 through, and including, June 16, 2022 and the period January 1, 2022 through, and including, June 16, 2022 reflects the Predecessor periods. Unless otherwise indicated, the three and six months ended June 25, 2021 (Predecessor) refers to the thirteen and twenty-six week period ended June 25, 2021 (Predecessor). Fiscal 2021 (Predecessor) consisted of 53 weeks, while fiscal 2022 will consist of 52 weeks and will end on December 30, 2022.

2. | Emergence from Voluntary Reorganization |
During the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases, the Debtors operated their businesses as debtors-in-possession under the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and orders of the Bankruptcy Court. As debtors-in-possession, the Debtors were authorized to continue to operate as ongoing businesses, and were allowed to pay all debts and honor all obligations arising in the ordinary course of their businesses after the Petition Date. However, the Debtors were not allowed to pay third-party claims or creditors on account of obligations arising before the Petition Date or engage in transactions outside the ordinary course of business without approval of the Bankruptcy Court.
Under the Bankruptcy Code, third-party actions to collect pre-petition indebtedness owed by the Debtors, as well as most litigation pending against the Company as of the Petition Date, were subject to an automatic stay. See Plan of Reorganization section below for the distributions to creditors and interest holders.
Plan of Reorganization
In accordance with the effectuated Plan, the following significant transactions occurred upon the Company's emergence from bankruptcy on the Effective Date:
Resolution of Opioid-Related Claims.
Pursuant to the Plan and the Scheme of Arrangement, on the Effective Date all opioid claims against the Company and its subsidiaries were deemed to have been settled, discharged, waived, released and extinguished in full against the Company and its
subsidiaries, and the Company and its subsidiaries ceased to have any liability or obligation with respect to such claims, which were treated in accordance with the Plan as follows:
◦Opioid claims were channeled to certain trusts, which will receive $1,725.0 million in deferred payments from the Company and certain of its subsidiaries (the "Opioid-Related Litigation Settlement") consisting of (i) a $450.0 million payment upon the Effective Date (of which $2.6 million was prefunded); (ii) a $200.0 million payment upon each of the first and second anniversaries of the Effective Date; (iii) a $150.0 million payment upon each of the third through seventh anniversaries of the Effective Date; and (iv) a $125.0 million payment upon the eighth anniversary of Effective Date (collectively, the "Opioid Deferred Payments") with the Company retaining an eighteen-month option to prepay outstanding Opioid Deferred Payments (other than the initial Effective Date payment) at a discount (and to prepay the Opioid Deferred Payments at their undiscounted value even after the expiration of such eighteen-month period). The Opioid Deferred Payments are unsecured and are guaranteed by Mallinckrodt and its subsidiaries that are borrowers, issuers or guarantors under the Takeback Term Loans and the New 1L Notes, Existing 1L Notes, New 2L Notes and Takeback 2L Notes (such notes collectively, the “Effective Date Notes”) (except for the Effective Date Notes), and certain future indebtedness (subject to certain exceptions). The Opioid Deferred Cash Payments Agreement contains affirmative and negative covenants (including an obligation to offer to pay the Opioid Deferred Payments without discount upon the occurrence of certain change of control triggering events) and events of default (subject in certain cases to customary grace and cure periods). The occurrence of an event of default under the Opioid Deferred Cash Payments Agreement could result in the required repayment of all outstanding Opioid Deferred Payments and could cause a cross-default that could result in the acceleration of certain indebtedness of Mallinckrodt and its subsidiaries.
•Opioid claimants also received, in addition to other potential consideration, 3,290,675 warrants for approximately 19.99% of the reorganized Company’s new outstanding shares, with a nominal value $0.01 per share ("Ordinary Share(s)"), after giving effect to the exercise of the warrants, but subject to dilution from equity reserved under the management incentive plan, exercisable at any time on or prior to the sixth anniversary of the Effective Date, at a strike price of $103.40 per Ordinary Share (the "Opioid Warrant(s)").
•Pursuant to the Plan, certain subsidiaries of the Company will remain subject to an agreed-upon operating injunction with respect to the operation of their opioid business.
Governmental Acthar® Gel (repository corticotropin injection) ("Acthar Gel") Settlement
Pursuant to the Plan and the Scheme of Arrangement, on the Effective Date, all claims of the U.S. Department of Justice ("DOJ") and other governmental parties relating to Acthar Gel against the Company were deemed to have been settled, discharged, waived, released and extinguished in full against the Company, and the Company ceased to have any liability or obligation with respect to such claims, which were treated in accordance with the Plan and the terms of the settlement that is summarized below:
•The Company entered into an agreement with the DOJ and other governmental parties to settle a range of litigation matters and disputes relating to Acthar Gel (the "Acthar Gel-Related Settlement") including a Medicaid lawsuit with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services ("CMS"), a related False Claims Act ("FCA") lawsuit in Boston, and an Eastern District of Pennsylvania ("EDPA") FCA lawsuit principally relating to interactions of Acthar Gel's previous owner (Questcor Pharmaceuticals Inc. ("Questcor")) with an independent charitable foundation. To implement the Acthar Gel-Related Settlement, the Company entered into two settlement agreements with the U.S. and certain relators. Under the Acthar Gel-Related Settlement, which was conditioned upon the Company commencing its Chapter 11 proceeding and provided for the distributions the applicable claimants received under the Plan, the Company will pay $260.0 million to the DOJ and other parties over seven years and reset Acthar Gel’s Medicaid rebate calculation as of July 1, 2020, such that state Medicaid programs will receive 100% rebates on Acthar Gel Medicaid sales, based on current Acthar Gel pricing. The $260.0 million in payments consists of (i) a $15.0 million payment upon the Effective Date; (ii) a $15.0 million payment upon the first anniversary of the Effective Date; (iii) a $20.0 million payment upon each of the second and third anniversaries of the Effective Date; (iv) a $32.5 million payment upon each of the fourth and fifth anniversaries of the Effective Date; and (v) a $62.5 million payment upon the sixth and seventh anniversaries of Effective Date. Also in connection with the Acthar Gel-Related Settlement, the Company entered into (a) separate settlement agreements with certain states, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, the District of Columbia and the above-noted relators, which further implement the Acthar Gel-Related Settlement, and (b) a five-year corporate integrity agreement ("CIA") with the Office of Inspector General ("OIG") of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services ("HHS") in March 2022. As a result of these agreements, upon effectiveness of the Acthar Gel-Related Settlement in connection with the effectiveness of the Plan, the U.S. Government has dropped its demand for approximately $640 million in retrospective Medicaid rebates for Acthar Gel and agreed to dismiss the FCA lawsuit in Boston and the EDPA FCA lawsuit. Similarly, state and territory Attorneys General have also dropped related lawsuits. In turn, the Company has dismissed its appeal of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia's ("D.C. District Court") adverse decision in the Medicaid lawsuit, which was filed in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit ("D.C. Circuit").
•Mallinckrodt has entered into the Acthar Gel-Related Settlement with the DOJ and other governmental parties solely to move past these litigation matters and disputes and does not make any admission of liability or wrongdoing.
•In accordance with the effectuated Acthar Gel-Related Settlement, on June 28, 2022, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order dismissing the federal government's FCA lawsuit with prejudice, and further ordered the related state lawsuits dismissed without prejudice.
•In accordance with the effectuated Acthar Gel-Related Settlement, on July 20, 2022, the court entered an order dismissing the EDPA FCA lawsuit with prejudice.

Resolution of Other Remaining Claims
Pursuant to the Plan and Scheme of Arrangement, on the Effective Date, certain trade claims and other general unsecured claims, including the claims of holders of the 4.75% senior notes due April 2023, against the Debtors were deemed to have been settled, discharged, waived, released and extinguished in full, and Mallinckrodt ceased to have any liability or obligation with respect to such claims, which were then treated in accordance with the Plan and Scheme of Arrangement, which provided for the holders of such claims to share in $135.0 million in cash, plus other potential consideration, including but not limited to 35.0% of the proceeds of the sale of the StrataGraft® Priority Review Voucher (“PRV”) and $20.0 million payable upon the achievement of (1) U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") approval of terlipressin and (2) cumulative net sales of $100.0 million of terlipressin.
On June 30, 2022, subsequent to the Effective Date, the Company completed the sale of its PRV for $100.0 million and received net proceeds of $65.0 million as the buyer remitted the remaining $35.0 million to the General Unsecured Claims Trustee pursuant to the terms of (i) the Plan, and (ii) that certain General Unsecured Claims Trust Agreement entered into in connection with the Plan.
New Warrant Agreement
On the Effective Date and pursuant to the Plan, Mallinckrodt entered into a warrant agreement and issued 3,290,675 Opioid Warrants to purchase the Ordinary Shares to MNK Opioid Abatement Fund, LLC (the “Initial Holder”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Opioid Master Disbursement Trust II, a master disbursement trust established in accordance with the Plan. Each Opioid Warrant is initially exercisable for one Ordinary Share at an initial exercise price of $103.40 per Ordinary Share (the “Exercise Price”), subject to the cashless exercise provisions contained in the warrant agreement. The Opioid Warrants are exercisable from the date of issuance until the sixth anniversary of the Effective Date. The warrant agreement governing the Opioid Warrants contains customary anti-dilution adjustments in the event of any share dividends, share splits, distributions, issuance of additional shares or options, or certain other dilutive events.
Other than in the case of an adjustment through certain other dividends or distributions, whenever the Exercise Price is adjusted as provided above, the number of Opioid Warrant shares for which an Opioid Warrant is exercisable (the “Warrant Number”) shall simultaneously be adjusted by multiplying the warrant number for which an Opioid Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Exercise Price immediately prior to such adjustment, and the denominator of which shall be the Exercise Price immediately thereafter.
Pursuant to the warrant agreement, no holder of an Opioid Warrant, by virtue of holding or having a beneficial interest in the Opioid Warrant, will have the right to vote, receive dividends, receive notice as stockholders with respect to any meetings of stockholders for the election of Mallinckrodt's directors or any other matter, or exercise any rights whatsoever as a stockholder of Mallinckrodt unless, until and only to the extent such holders become holders of record of Ordinary Shares issued upon exercise of Opioid Warrants.
New Registration Rights Agreement
On the Effective Date and pursuant to the Plan, Mallinckrodt entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with the Initial Holder of the Opioid Warrants. The Registration Rights Agreement provides certain resale and other registration rights for the registrable securities, including the Opioid Warrants and the Opioid Warrant shares, held by the Initial Holder and its permitted transferees and assignees. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, Mallinckrodt has agreed to prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement by no later than (x) 90 days after the Effective Date if Mallinckrodt is then eligible to register the registrable securities on a registration statement on Form S-3 or (y) 180 days after the Effective Date if Mallinckrodt is not then eligible to register the registrable securities on a registration statement on Form S-3, in each case, covering the resale pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") of all registrable securities held by the initial holder and its permitted transferees and assignees. Following the effectiveness of such registration statement, Mallinckrodt has agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to keep such registration statement continuously effective under the Securities Act until the date that all registrable securities covered by such registration statement are no longer registrable securities. In addition, during the effectiveness of such registration statement, the holders of a majority of registrable securities then outstanding may request to sell all or any portion of their registrable securities in an underwritten public offering that is registered pursuant to such registration statement, subject to the limitations provided in the Registration Rights Agreement.
Exit Financing
On the Effective Date, the Company issued $650.0 million aggregate principal amount of new 11.50% First Lien Senior Secured Notes due 2028 (the "New 1L Notes") and entered into a receivables financing facility based on a borrowing base with a maximum draw of up to $200.0 million. See Note 11 for further information on these debt instruments.
Financing
Predecessor Chapter 11 Financing
The Company obtained an order of the Bankruptcy Court in the Chapter 11 Cases (in a form agreed with, among others, the agent under the predecessor senior secured credit facilities, lenders under the Existing Revolver and the Existing Term Loans and holders of the Existing 1L Notes and the Existing 2L Notes) permitting the use of cash collateral to finance the Chapter 11 Cases.
Such order required that the Company make cash adequate protection payments on the Existing Revolver and Existing Term Loans for, among other things, unpaid pre-petition and post-petition fees, unpaid pre-petition interest (at the specified contract rate) and post-petition interest (at a rate equal to (1) the adjusted London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR"), plus (2) the contract-specified applicable margin, and plus (3) an incremental 200 basis points), quarterly amortization payments on the Existing Term Loans and reimbursement of certain costs. Such order further required that the Company make cash adequate protection payments on the Existing 1L Notes and Existing 2L Notes for, among other things, unpaid pre-petition and post-petition interest (at the specified non-default interest rate) and reimbursement of certain costs. On April 13, 2021, the Debtors received Bankruptcy Court approval of their motion to amend the final cash collateral order as of March 22, 2021 to pay post-petition interest on the senior secured term loans at a rate
equal to (1) the adjusted LIBOR, plus (2) the contract-specified applicable margin, and plus (3) an incremental 250 basis points for its Existing Term Loans. The cash collateral order expired on June 16, 2022.
Interest expense incurred and paid with respect to the incremental adequate protection payments of 200 basis points and 250 basis points on the Existing Revolver and Existing Term Loans, respectively, were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | Predecessor |
| | | | | Period from April 2, 2022 through June 16, 2022 | | Three Months Ended June 25, 2021 |
Interest expense incurred for adequate protection payments | | | | | $ | 13.1 | | | $ | 15.8 | |
Cash paid for adequate protection payments | | | | | 13.3 | | | 15.3 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | Predecessor |
| | | | | Period from January 1, 2022 through June 16. 2022 | | Six Months Ended June 25. 2021 |
Interest expense incurred for adequate protection payments | | | | | $ | 28.8 | | | $ | 30.3 | |
Cash paid for adequate protection payments | | | | | 28.8 | | | 29.1 | |
Contractual interest
While the Chapter 11 Cases were pending, the Company was not accruing interest on its unsecured debt instruments as of the Petition Date on a go-forward basis as the Debtors did not anticipate making interest payments due under their respective unsecured debt instruments; however, the Debtors expect to pay all interest payments in full as they come due under their respective senior secured debt instruments. The total aggregate amount of interest payments contractually due under the Company's unsecured debt instruments, which the Company did not pay as the obligation was extinguished pursuant to the Plan, was $28.8 million and $46.5 million for the period April 2, 2022 through June 16, 2022 (Predecessor) and the period January 1, 2022 through June 16, 2022 (Predecessor), respectively, and $28.8 million and $46.5 million for the three and six months ended June 25, 2021, respectively.
The Company qualified for and adopted fresh-start accounting as of the Effective Date in accordance with ASC 852 as (i) the reorganization value of the assets of the Company immediately prior to the date of effectuation of the Plan was less than the post-petition liabilities and allowed claims and (ii) the holders of the voting shares of the Predecessor immediately before effectuation of the Plan received less than 50% of the voting shares of the Successor.
Reorganization Value
Reorganization value represents the fair value of the Successor Company's total assets and is intended to approximate the amount a willing buyer would pay for the assets immediately after restructuring. Upon the application of fresh-start accounting, the Company allocated the reorganization value to its individual assets based on their estimated fair values in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 805 - Business Combinations. Deferred income tax amounts were determined in accordance with ASC Topic 740 - Income Taxes.
As set forth in the disclosure statement approved by the Bankruptcy Court, the estimated enterprise value of the Successor was estimated to be between $5,200.0 million and $5,700.0 million, with a midpoint of $5,450.0 million, which was estimated with the assistance of third-party valuation advisors using various valuation methods, including (i) discounted cash flow analysis, a calculation of the present value of the future cash flows to be generated by the business based on its projection, and (ii) comparable public company analysis, a method to estimate the value of a company relative to other publicly traded companies with similar operation and financial characteristics. The estimated enterprise value per the disclosure statement included estimated equity value in a range between $563.0 million and $1,063.0 million, with a midpoint of $813.0 million. Subsequent to the filing of the disclosure statement, the Company made revisions to certain of the cash flow projections due to declines in projected operating performance. Based upon a reevaluation of relevant factors used in determining the range of enterprise value and updated expected cash flow projections, the Company concluded the enterprise value, or fair value, was $5,223.0 million.
The basis of the discounted cash flow analysis used in developing the enterprise value was based on Company prepared projections that included a variety of estimates and assumptions. While the Company considers such estimates and assumptions reasonable, they are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties, many of which are beyond the
Company’s control and, therefore, may not be realized. Changes in these estimates and assumptions may have had a significant effect on the determination of the Company’s enterprise value.
The following table reconciles the enterprise value to the implied fair value of the Successor's equity as of the Effective Date:
| | | | | | | | |
Enterprise value | | $ | 5,223.0 | |
Plus: Enterprise value adjustments (1) | | 197.0 | |
Adjusted enterprise value | | 5,420.0 | |
Plus: Cash and cash equivalents | | 297.9 | |
Plus: Non-operating assets, net (2) | | 178.7 | |
Less: Fair value of debt | | (3,067.2) | |
Less: Fair value of Opioid-Related Litigation Settlement, Acthar Gel-Related Settlement, StrataGraft PRV proceeds and terlipressin contingent value rights | | (625.8) | |
Successor equity value | | $ | 2,203.6 | |
(1)Represents incremental tax benefits not contemplated in the projections utilized in the disclosure statement.
(2)Represents non-operating assets and liabilities which were excluded from the enterprise value as put forth in the disclosure statement as there were no cash projections associated with these net assets.
Upon the application of fresh-start accounting, the Company preliminarily allocated the reorganization value to its individual assets based on their estimated fair values. Reorganization value represents the fair value of the Successor’s assets before considering liabilities.
The following table reconciles the Company's enterprise value to its reorganization value as of the Effective Date:
| | | | | | | | |
Adjusted enterprise value | | $ | 5,420.0 | |
Plus: Cash and cash equivalents | | 297.9 | |
Plus: Non-operating assets, net | | 178.7 | |
Plus: Current liabilities (excluding debt or debt-like items) | | 522.5 | |
Plus: Other non-current liabilities (excluding debt or debt-like items) | | 183.2 | |
Reorganization value of Successor assets | | $ | 6,602.3 | |
Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet
The four-column unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of the Effective Date included herein, applies effects of the Plan (reflected in the column "Reorganization Adjustments") and fresh-start accounting (reflected in the column "Fresh-Start Adjustments") to the carrying values and classifications of assets or liabilities. Upon adoption of fresh-start accounting, the recorded amounts of assets and liabilities were adjusted to reflect their preliminary estimated fair values. Accordingly, the reported historical financial statements of the Predecessor prior to the adoption of fresh-start accounting for periods ended on or prior to the Effective Date are not comparable to those of the Successor. The explanatory notes highlight methods used to determine fair values or other amounts of the assets and liabilities as well as significant assumptions.
The four-column unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 16, 2022 is as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Predecessor | | Reorganization Adjustments | | | Fresh-Start Adjustments | | | Successor |

Fresh-Start Adjustments
(q)Reflects the fair value adjustment related to the Company's inventory. Both the bottom-up and top-down approach were used. The bottom-up approach considers the inventory value that had been created by the Company including the costs incurred, profit realized, and tangible and intangible assets used pre-Effective Date. The top-down approach measures the incremental inventory value created by the market participant buyer as part of its selling effort to an end customer and considers the costs that will be incurred, the profit that will be realized, and the tangible and intangible assets that will be used post-Effective Date.
(r)Reflects the reduction of $54.0 million in prepaid income taxes due to remeasurement as a result of fresh-start accounting. Also reflects a write-off of $4.3 million of asbestos indemnification receivable affiliated with asbestos-related defense costs in line with the Company's accounting policy change as outlined in Note 1.
(s)Reflects the fair value adjustment related to the Company's property, plant and equipment. Both the market and cost approaches were utilized to fair value land and buildings. The cost approach was utilized to fair value capitalized software and machinery and equipment. Construction in process was reported at its cost less adjustments for economic obsolescence.
(t)Reflects the fair value adjustment related to the Company's intangible assets. The fair value of the completed technology and in-process research and development ("IPR&D") intangible assets were determined using the income approach. The cash flows were discounted commensurate with the level of risk associated with each asset or its projected cash flows. The valuation used discount rates ranging from 13.0% through 15.0%, depending on the asset. The IPR&D discount rate was developed after assigning a probability of success to achieving the projected cash flows based on the current stages of development, inherent uncertainty in the FDA approval process and risks associated with commercialization of a new product. See Note 10 for further information on intangible assets.
(u)Reflects the write-off of (i) $16.0 million of asbestos indemnification receivable affiliated with asbestos-related defense costs in line with the Company's accounting policy change as outlined in Note 1; (ii) $3.9 million of spare parts that did not meet the Company's capitalization threshold; and (iii) $1.1 million of third party debt issuance costs. Also reflects a decrease of $0.9 million to income tax receivables associated with a change in uncertain tax positions as a result of fresh-start accounting.
In addition, the Company’s lease obligations were revalued using the incremental borrowing rate applicable to the Company upon emergence from the Chapter 11 proceedings and commensurate with its new capital structure. The incremental borrowing rate used in the revaluation of the lease obligations increased from 8.85% in the Predecessor period to 11.83% in the Successor period. The revaluation of lease obligations includes the adjustment for contract-based off-market intangibles for favorable or unfavorable terms to the right-of-use assets as well as the removal of right-of-use assets (and affiliated lease liabilities) associated with the Company’s leases with a remaining contract term of less than one year as of the Effective Date. The revaluation resulted in a reduction in the right-of-use asset of $1.6 million.
(v)Reflects the write-off of (i) $6.1 million and $16.7 million of current and non-current asbestos-related defense costs, respectively, in line with the Company's accounting policy change as outlined in Note 1; and (ii) an adjustment of $6.9 million to increase the Company's total lease liabilities as a result of the revaluation of the lease obligations as described in footnote (t) above.
(w)Reflects the write-off of $5.1 million of unamortized debt issuance costs and a $23.5 million fair value adjustment to debt principal as determined by the Black-Derman-Toy model related to the reinstated Existing 1L Notes .
(x)Reflects the reduction of liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits that are no longer required upon emergence.
(y)Reflects the fair value adjustment to eliminate the accumulated other comprehensive income of $8.1 million related to pension benefits and $2.1 million of currency translation adjustment, partially offset by the elimination of $0.3 million of income tax effects, which resulted in income tax benefit of $0.3 million.

5. | Restructuring and Related Charges |
During fiscal 2021 and 2018, the Company launched restructuring programs designed to improve its cost structure, neither of which has a specified time period. Charges of $50.0 million to $100.0 million were provided for under the 2021 program and $100.0 million to $125.0 million were provided for under the 2018 program. The 2021 program will commence upon substantial completion of the 2018 program, and has not commenced as of July 1, 2022. In addition to the aforementioned restructuring programs, the Company has taken restructuring actions to generate synergies from its acquisitions.

The Company's income tax benefit was as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Successor | | | Predecessor | | | | |
| | | | | | |
| Period from June 17, 2022 through July 1, 2022 | | | Period from April 2, 2022 through June 16, 2022 | | Three Months Ended June 25, 2021 | | | | |
Current tax benefit | $ | 3.3 | | | | $ | 18.9 | | | $ | 23.6 | | | | | |
Deferred tax benefit | 6.4 | | | | 472.5 | | | 9.9 | | | | | |
Income tax benefit | $ | 9.7 | | | | $ | 491.4 | | | $ | 33.5 | | | | | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Successor | | | Predecessor |
| Period from June 17, 2022 through July 1, 2022 | | | Period from January 1, 2022 through June 16, 2022 | | Six Months Ended June 25, 2021 |
Current tax benefit | $ | 3.3 | | | | $ | 23.9 | | | $ | 36.6 | |
Deferred tax benefit | 6.4 | | | | 473.4 | | | 13.3 | |
Income tax benefit | $ | 9.7 | | | | $ | 497.3 | | | $ | 49.9 | |
As stated in Note 1, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of July 1, 2022 have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. Therefore, the Company has determined that its net deferred tax assets in certain jurisdictions are more likely than not realizable, and has released the associated valuation allowance as of the Effective Date.
The effective tax rate for the Successor Company for the period from June 17, 2022 through July 1, 2022 (Successor) was 13.2%. The effective tax rate for continuing operations of the Predecessor Company for the period from April 2, 2022 through June 16, 2022 (Predecessor) and the period from January 1, 2022 through June 16, 2022 (Predecessor) was 71.7% and 61.3%, respectively.
The income tax benefit of $9.7 million for the period from June 17, 2022 through July 1, 2022 (Successor) consisted of $8.0 million attributed to the jurisdictional mix of pretax earnings, and $1.7 million attributed to separation costs, reorganization items, net and restructuring charges.
The income tax benefit for the period from April 2, 2022 through June 16, 2022 (Predecessor) and the period from January 1, 2022 through June 16, 2022 (Predecessor) primarily consisted of the income tax impacts from reorganization and fresh-start adjustments, including adjustments to the Company's valuation allowance. For the period January 1, 2022 through June 16, 2022 (Predecessor), the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $497.3 million, primarily for reorganization adjustments in the Predecessor period consisting of (1) $1,231.5 million of tax expense for the reduction in federal and state net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards from the cancellation of debt income (“CODI”) realized upon emergence and limitations under Sections 382 and 383 of the IRC; (2) $141.3 million of tax expense for the net decrease in deferred tax assets resulting from reorganization adjustments; and (3) $1,270.1 million of tax benefit for the reduction in the valuation allowance on the Company's deferred tax assets; and fresh-start adjustments in the Predecessor period consisting of (4) $297.1 million of tax benefit for the net decrease in deferred tax liabilities resulting from fresh-start adjustments and (5) $285.3 million of tax benefit associated with the release of uncertain tax positions. The remaining tax benefit was attributable to the jurisdictional mix of pretax earnings during the Predecessor period.
The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 25, 2021 (Predecessor) was 24.0% and 16.6%, respectively. The tax benefit for the three and six months ended June 25, 2021 (Predecessor) was primarily impacted by intangible asset amortization as well as by an increase to prepaid taxes and a decrease to uncertain tax positions partially offset by the utilization of loss carryforwards in non-valuation allowance jurisdictions.
The income tax benefit of $33.5 million for the three months ended June 25, 2021 consisted of $26.0 million attributed to jurisdictional mix of pretax earnings, $3.8 million attributed to separation costs, reorganization items, net and restructuring charges, $3.3 million attributed to uncertain tax positions, and $0.4 million attributed to the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security ("CARES") Act.
The income tax benefit of $49.9 million for the six months ended June 25, 2021 consisted of $39.0 million attributed to the jurisdictional mix of pretax earnings, $6.7 million attributed to separation costs, reorganization items, net, and restructuring charges, $3.3 million attributed to uncertain tax positions, and $0.9 million attributed to the CARES Act.
During the period June 17, 2022 through July 1, 2022 (Successor) and the period January 1, 2022 through June 16, 2022 (Predecessor), net cash payments for income taxes were $0.7 million and $3.0 million, respectively. During the six months ended June 25, 2021 (Predecessor), net cash refunds for income taxes were $59.6 million. Included within the net cash refunds of $59.6 million were refunds of $77.6 million received as a result of provisions in the CARES Act.
The Company's unrecognized tax benefits, excluding interest, totaled $24.8 million and $333.5 million as of July 1, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The decrease of $308.7 million primarily resulted from a reduction of prior period tax positions related to fresh-start adjustments of $306.1 million and settlements of $2.6 million. If favorably settled, $24.8 million of unrecognized tax benefits as of July 1, 2022 would benefit the effective tax rate. The total amount of accrued interest and penalties related to these obligations was $2.2 million and $18.9 million as of July 1, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
Within the next twelve months, the unrecognized tax benefits and the related interest and penalties are not expected to decrease.
Certain of the Company's subsidiaries continue to be subject to examination by taxing authorities. The earliest open years subject to examination for both the U.S federal and state jurisdictions and various foreign jurisdictions, including Ireland, Japan, Luxembourg, Switzerland and the United Kingdom is 2013.
As a result of the Plan, the Company recognized CODI on its indebtedness, resulting in the utilization of, and reduction to, certain of its tax losses and tax credits in the U.S. and Luxembourg. The remaining of its U.S. tax losses and credits are expected to be significantly limited under Sections 382 and 383 of the IRC. Additionally, the Company recognized a U.S. capital loss as a result of the Plan. This capital loss may be carried forward to offset capital gains recognized by the Company in the next five years, to the extent it is not reduced by CODI or limited under IRC section 382 or 383. The deferred tax asset associated with the capital loss carryforward is offset by a valuation allowance due to significant uncertainty regarding the Company’s ability to utilize the carryforward prior to its expiration. The portion of deferred tax assets associated with the tax losses and credits that are limited under IRC Section 382 or 383, and that have a remote possibility of being utilized, have been written off.
The Plan’s tax effect, and impacts on the Company’s tax losses and credits, is expected be finalized when all information is available and could change significantly from the current estimates.
Loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the number of weighted-average shares outstanding during the period. Dilutive securities, including participating securities, have not been included in the computation of loss per share as the Company reported a net loss from continuing operations during all periods presented below and therefore, the impact would be anti-dilutive.
The weighted-average number of shares outstanding used in the computations of both basic and diluted loss per share were as follows (in millions):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Successor | | | Predecessor | | | | |
| | | | | | |
| Period from June 17, 2022 through July 1, 2022 | | | Period from April 2, 2022 through June 16, 2022 | | Three Months Ended June 25, 2021 | | | | |

Basic and diluted | 13.2 | | | | 84.8 | | | 84.7 | |
| | | | | | |
| | | | | | |
| | | | | | |
The computation of diluted weighted-average shares outstanding for the period June 17, 2022 through July 1, 2022 (Successor) excluded approximately 3.2 million shares of Opioid Warrants because the effect would have been anti-dilutive. The computation of diluted weighted-average shares outstanding for both the periods April 2, 2022 through June 16, 2022 (Predecessor), the period January 1, 2022 through June 16, 2022 (Predecessor) and both the three and six months ended June 25, 2021 (Predecessor) excluded approximately 0.5 million and 5.4 million shares of equity awards because the effect would have been anti-dilutive, respectively.

As part of fresh-start accounting, the Company wrote-off the existing intangible assets and accumulated amortization of the Predecessor and recorded $3,152.2 million to reflect the fair value of intangible assets of the Successor (see also Note 3). Such adjustment included $100.0 million in relation to the Company's PRV that was awarded under a FDA program intended to encourage the development of certain product applications for therapies used to treat or prevent material threat medical countermeasures. On June 30, 2022, subsequent to the Effective Date, the Company completed the sale of its PRV for $100.0 million and received net proceeds of $65.0 million as the buyer remitted the remaining $35.0 million to the General Unsecured Claims Trustee pursuant to the terms of (i) the Plan, and (ii) that certain General Unsecured Claims Trust Agreement entered into in connection with the Plan.

Amitiza
Beginning January 1, 2022 (Predecessor), the Company changed its amortization method used for the Amitiza intangible asset from the straight-line method to the sum of the years digits method, an accelerated method of amortization, to more accurately reflect the consumption of economic benefits over the remaining useful life of the asset. This change in amortization method resulted in additional amortization expense of $9.3 million and $21.7 million, which impacted basic loss per share by $0.11 and $0.26 for the period April 2, 2022 through June 16, 2022 (Predecessor) and the period January 1, 2022 through June 16, 2022 (Predecessor), respectively.
Terlipressin
During September 2020, the FDA issued a Complete Response Letter ("CRL") regarding the Company's New Drug Application ("NDA") seeking approval for the investigational agent terlipressin to treat adults with hepatorenal syndrome type 1 ("HRS-1"). The CRL stated that, based on the available data, the agency cannot approve the terlipressin NDA in its current form and requires more information to support a positive risk-benefit profile for terlipressin for patients with HRS-1.
In response to receipt of the CRL, the Company had an End of Review Meeting on October 26, 2020 and a Type A Meeting on January 29, 2021 with the FDA where both parties engaged in constructive dialogue in an effort to clarify a viable path to U.S. approval. On August 18, 2021, the Company resubmitted its NDA for terlipressin to the FDA and on February 18, 2022, the Prescription Drug User Fee Act (or "PDUFA") date, the FDA issued a CRL. In the weeks leading up to the PDUFA date, it became necessary for the Company to identify a new packaging and labeling manufacturing facility, which meant that an inspection by the FDA could not be completed by the PDUFA date. A satisfactory inspection is required before the NDA can be approved. This is the only outstanding issue noted in the CRL, and it is important to note that there were no safety or efficacy issues cited.
On June 9, 2022, the Company resubmitted its NDA for terlipressin to the FDA and currently expects the Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) date to be December 9, 2022. The Company remains committed to this critically ill patient population, who currently have no approved treatment option in the U.S. for HRS-1 and believes that there is a path to approval in fiscal 2022. The Company will continue to assess the impact of any changes to planned revenue or earnings on the fair value of the associated in-process research and development asset of $104.8 million included within intangible assets, net on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of July 1, 2022.
The Company annually tests the indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable by either a qualitative or income approach. Management relies on a number of qualitative factors when considering a potential impairment such as changes to planned revenue or earnings that could affect significant inputs used to determine the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset.

(1)Upon adoption of fresh-start accounting, the Company recorded its debt instruments at fair value utilizing the Black-Derman-Toy model, which takes into consideration prepayment options and a credit-adjusted discount rate. Subsequent to the Effective Date, the Company accounted for its debt instruments utilizing the amortized cost method and accretes the instruments up from their fair value to the principal amount over the term of the respective instruments. Such accretion expense is reflected as interest expense on the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations for the successor period.
The commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases constituted an event of default under certain of the Company’s predecessor debt agreements. As a result of the Chapter 11 Cases, the principal and interest due under these debt instruments became immediately due and payable. However, any efforts to enforce payment was automatically stayed in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code.
On the Effective Date, the principal balance outstanding under the Existing Term Loans of $1,762.6 million, Existing 2L Notes of $322.9 million, Guaranteed Unsecured Notes of $1,512.2 million, 9.50% debentures of $10.4 million, 8.00% debentures of $4.4 million and 4.75% senior notes due April 2023 of $133.7 million were canceled and the Company entered into new Takeback Term Loans, New 2L Notes, and Takeback 2L Notes (all further described in Note 2). The Existing 1L Notes were reinstated and the Existing Revolver was paid in full in cash. Additionally, the Company issued New 1L Notes and entered into a receivables financing facility (discussed further below).
Successor Company Indebtedness
Takeback Term Loans
On the Effective Date and pursuant to the Plan, the Issuers entered into the Takeback Term Loans, each pursuant to a Credit Agreement, dated as of the Effective Date (the “Credit Agreement”), among Mallinckrodt plc, the Issuers, the lenders party thereto from time to time, Acquiom Agency Services LLC and Seaport Loan Products LLC, as co-administrative agents, and Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch, as collateral agent. The Takeback Term Loans were issued to the holders of the existing senior secured term loans incurred by the Issuers in satisfaction thereof. All obligations under the Takeback Term Loans are unconditionally guaranteed by Mallinckrodt plc, certain of its direct or indirect wholly owned U.S. subsidiaries, each of its direct or indirect wholly owned
subsidiaries that owns directly or indirectly any such wholly owned U.S. subsidiary, and certain other subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions (collectively, the “Guarantors”) and are secured by a security interest in certain assets of the Issuers and the Guarantors.
The 2017 Replacement Term Loans bear interest at a rate equal to, at the option of the borrowers thereunder, adjusted London Interbank Office Rate ("LIBOR"), subject to a floor of 0.75%, plus a spread equal to 5.25% or an alternate base rate, subject to a floor of 1.75%, plus a spread equal to 4.25%. The 2018 Replacement Term Loans bear interest at a rate equal to, at the option of the borrowers thereunder, adjusted LIBOR, subject to a floor of 0.75%, plus a spread equal to 5.50% or an alternate base rate, subject to a floor of 1.75%, plus a spread equal to 4.50%. Interest on the Takeback Term Loans is payable at the end of each applicable interest period, but in no event less frequently than quarterly. The Takeback Term Loans mature on September 30, 2027. Amounts outstanding under the Takeback Term Loans may be prepaid at any time, subject, under certain circumstances, to a 1.00% prepayment premium.
The Credit Agreement contains certain customary affirmative and negative covenants, representations and warranties and events of default (subject in certain cases to customary grace and cure periods). The occurrence of an event of default under the Credit Agreement could result in the acceleration of all outstanding borrowings under the Takeback Term Loans and could cause a cross-default that could result in the acceleration of other indebtedness of Mallinckrodt plc and its subsidiaries.
11.50% First Lien Senior Secured Notes due 2028
On June 15, 2022, the Issuers and Mallinckrodt plc entered into a purchase agreement (the “Note Purchase Agreement”) with certain Purchasers (as defined in the Note Purchase Agreement) with respect to the issuance and sale of $650.0 million aggregate principal amount of 11.50% First Lien Senior Secured Notes due 2028 (the “New 1L Notes”). The Note Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants and includes the terms and conditions for the sale of the New 1L Notes, and other terms and conditions customary in agreements of this type. The net proceeds of the issuance of the New 1L Notes were applied to repay in part the existing senior secured revolving credit facility incurred by the Issuers and certain of their respective subsidiaries. The issuance of the New 1L Notes was exempt from registration under the Securities Act.
The New 1L Notes were issued by the Issuers on the Effective Date pursuant to an indenture, dated as of the Effective Date (the “New 1L Notes Indenture”) among the Issuers, Mallinckrodt plc, the Subsidiary Note Guarantors (as defined below), Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB, as first lien trustee, and Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch, as first lien collateral agent. The New 1L Notes mature on December 15, 2028.
Interest on the New 1L Notes is payable semi-annually in cash on June 15 and December 15 of each year, commencing on December 15, 2022. The initial interest rate on the New 1L Notes of 11.50% per annum is subject to increase to cause the yield to maturity of the New 1L Notes to match, to the extent greater, the yield to maturity of certain additional first lien indebtedness incurred during the six months following the Effective Date.
The Issuers may redeem some or all of the New 1L Notes prior to June 15, 2027 by paying a “make-whole” premium, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. The Issuers may redeem some or all of the New 1L Notes on or after June 15, 2027 at par, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. The Issuers may also redeem all, but not less than all, of the New 1L Notes at any time at a price of 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, in the event the Issuers become obligated to pay additional amounts as a result of changes affecting certain withholding tax laws applicable to payments on the New 1L Notes. The Issuers are obligated to offer to repurchase the New 1L Notes (a) at a price of 101% of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, as a result of certain change of control events and (b) at a price of 100% of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, in the event of certain net asset sales. These obligations are subject to certain qualifications and exceptions.
The New 1L Notes Indenture contains certain customary covenants and events of default (subject in certain cases to customary grace and cure periods). The occurrence of an event of default under the New 1L Notes Indenture could result in the acceleration of the New 1L Notes and could cause a cross-default that could result in the acceleration of other indebtedness of Mallinckrodt plc and its subsidiaries. The New 1L Notes are jointly and severally guaranteed on a secured, unsubordinated basis by Mallinckrodt plc and each of its subsidiaries (other than the Issuers) that guarantees the obligations under the Takeback Term Loans (the “Subsidiary Note Guarantors”). The New 1L Notes and the guarantees thereof are secured by liens on the same assets of the Issuers, Mallinckrodt plc and the Subsidiary Note Guarantors that are subject to liens securing the Takeback Term Loans, subject to certain exceptions.

Interest on the New 2L Notes is payable semi-annually in cash on April 15 and October 15 of each year, commencing on October 15, 2022.
The Issuers may redeem some or all of the New 2L Notes prior to April 15, 2024 at specified redemption prices, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. The Issuers may redeem some or all of the New 2L Notes on or after April 15, 2024 at par, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any.

The Issuers are obligated to offer to repurchase the New 2L Notes (a) at a price of 101% of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, as a result of certain change of control events and (b) at a price of 100% of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, in the event of certain net asset sales. These obligations are subject to certain qualifications and exceptions.
The New 2L Notes Indenture contains certain customary covenants and events of default (subject in certain cases to customary grace and cure periods). The occurrence of an event of default under the New 2L Notes Indenture could result in the acceleration of the New 2L Notes and could cause a cross-default that could result in the acceleration of other indebtedness of Mallinckrodt plc and its subsidiaries. The New 2L Notes are jointly and severally guaranteed, subject to certain exceptions, on a secured, unsubordinated basis by Mallinckrodt plc and the Subsidiary Note Guarantors. The New 2L Notes and the guarantees thereof are secured by liens on the same assets of the Issuers, Mallinckrodt plc and the Subsidiary Note Guarantors that are subject to liens securing the Takeback Term Loans, subject to certain exceptions.

On the Effective Date, pursuant to the Plan and the Scheme of Arrangement, the Issuers issued 10.00% second lien senior secured notes due 2029 (the "Takeback 2L Notes") in an aggregate principal amount of $375.0 million to the holders of the Issuers’ Guaranteed Unsecured Notes in partial satisfaction thereof.

Accounts Receivable Financing Facility
On the Effective Date, MEH, Inc. (“MEH”), as servicer, ST US AR Finance LLC, a direct wholly owned subsidiary of MEH (“ST US AR”), as borrower, the lenders party thereto, and the letter of credit issuers party thereto entered into a receivables financing
facility (the “Receivables Financing Facility”) pursuant to an ABL Credit Agreement (the “Receivables Financing Credit Agreement”) and a Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Purchase and Sale Agreement”). Under the Receivables Financing Facility, ST US AR may borrow money up to an amount based on a borrowing base with a maximum draw of up to $200.0 million. Borrowings are secured by a first-lien security interest under the Receivables Financing Facility on existing and future accounts receivables and related assets that have been sold from certain subsidiaries of MEH to ST US AR. The Receivables Financing Facility includes customary affirmative and negative covenants for transactions of this type. From the closing date until the last day of the first fiscal quarter after the closing date, borrowings bear interest at a rate of (a) either (i) the alternate base rate or (ii) secured overnight financing rate (SOFR), and (b) an applicable margin. On the first day of each fiscal quarter thereafter, the applicable margins shall be determined from a pricing grid based upon the historical excess availability for the most recent fiscal quarter ended immediately prior. The Receivables Financing Facility matures on the earlier of June 16, 2026 and a date that is 91 days prior to the maturity date of other material debt or any other material indebtedness that is incurred after the closing date. ST US AR may borrow, pay or prepay and reborrow under the Receivables Financing Facility at any time. So long as there is not an overadvance under the Receivables Financing Facility, and subject to certain other conditions, ST US AR can elect to repay borrowings or use cash to make distributions to MEH and certain subsidiaries of MEH that have contributed receivables to ST US AR. The obligations under the Receivables Financing Facility are not guaranteed by MEH or any of its restricted subsidiaries. The Receivables Financing Facility is subject to customary events of defaults for transactions of this type. As of July 1, 2022, the Company had no outstanding borrowings on its Receivables Financing Facility.
Applicable interest rate
As of July 1, 2022, the applicable interest rate and outstanding principal on the Company's debt instruments were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| Successor |
| Applicable interest rate | | Outstanding principal |
Fixed-rate instruments | 10.68 | % | | $ | 1,842.9 | |
2017 Replacement Term Loan | 7.25 | | | 1,391.5 | |
2018 Replacement Term Loan | 7.50 | | | 369.4 | |
In disposing of assets or businesses, the Company has from time to time provided representations, warranties and indemnities to cover various risks and liabilities, including unknown damage to assets, environmental risks involved in the sale of real estate, liability to investigate and remediate environmental contamination at waste disposal sites and manufacturing facilities, and unidentified tax liabilities related to periods prior to disposition. The Company assesses the probability of potential liabilities related to such representations, warranties and indemnities and adjusts potential liabilities as a result of changes in facts and circumstances. The Company believes, given the information currently available, that the ultimate resolutions will not have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
In connection with the sale of the Specialty Chemical business (formerly known as Mallinckrodt Baker) in fiscal 2010, the Company agreed to indemnify the purchaser with respect to various matters, including certain environmental, health, safety, tax and other matters. The indemnification obligations relating to certain environmental, health and safety matters have a term of 17 years from the sale, while some of the other indemnification obligations have an indefinite term. The liability was $14.9 million and included in LSTC on the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2021, of which $12.1 million, related to environmental, health and safety matters. The aggregate fair value of these indemnification obligations did not differ significantly from their aggregate carrying value as of December 31, 2021. The liability relating to all of these indemnification obligations was governed by a contract that was rejected as part of chapter 11 and is no longer a liability of the Successor Company. The Company was required to pay $30.0 million into an escrow account as collateral to the purchaser. The contract governing the escrow account was assumed in the Chapter 11 proceedings. As of both July 1, 2022 and December 31, 2021, $19.0 million remained in restricted cash, included in other long-term assets on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of July 1, 2022, the Company does not expect to make future payments related to these indemnification obligations.
The Company is also liable for product performance; however, the Company believes, given the information currently available, that the ultimate resolution of any such claims will not have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
As of July 1, 2022, the Company had various other letters of credit, guarantees and surety bonds totaling $33.6 million and restricted cash of $41.4 million held in segregated accounts primarily to collateralize surety bonds for the Company's environmental liabilities.

13. | Commitments and Contingencies |
The Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims, including government investigations, environmental matters, product liability matters, patent infringement claims, antitrust matters, securities class action lawsuits, personal injury claims, employment disputes, contractual and other commercial disputes, and all other legal proceedings, all in the ordinary course of business, including those described below. Although it is not feasible to predict the outcome of these matters, the Company believes, unless otherwise indicated below, given the information currently available, that their ultimate resolution will not have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
As a result of initiating the Chapter 11 Cases, all litigation and proceedings against the Company were automatically stayed, subject to certain limited exceptions. In addition, the Bankruptcy Court issued orders enjoining certain litigation against the Company and various individuals named in certain of the litigation described below that might otherwise be subject to such an exception. For further information about the Chapter 11 Cases, refer to Note 2.
Governmental Proceedings
Opioid-Related Matters
Since 2017, multiple U.S. states, counties, a territory, other governmental persons or entities and private plaintiffs have filed lawsuits against certain entities of the Company, as well as various other manufacturers, distributors, pharmacies, pharmacy benefit managers, individual doctors and/or others, asserting claims relating to defendants' alleged sales, marketing, distribution, reimbursement, prescribing, dispensing and/or other practices with respect to prescription opioid medications, including certain of the Company's products.
Pursuant to the Plan and the Scheme of Arrangement, on the Effective Date all opioid claims against Mallinckrodt and its subsidiaries were deemed to have been settled, discharged, waived, released and extinguished in full against Mallinckrodt and its subsidiaries, and Mallinckrodt and its subsidiaries ceased to have any liability or obligation with respect to such claims, which were treated in accordance with the Plan as set forth in Note 2.
Acthar Gel-Related Matters
Medicaid Lawsuit. In May 2019, CMS issued a final decision directing the Company to revert to the original base date average manufacturers price ("AMP") used to calculate Medicaid drug rebates for Acthar Gel despite CMS having given the previous owner of the product, Questcor, written authorization in 2012 to reset the base date AMP. Upon receipt of CMS’s final decision, the Company filed suit in the D.C. District Court against HHS and CMS under the Administrative Procedure Act seeking to have the decision declared unlawful and set aside. In March 2020, the Company received an adverse decision from the D.C. District Court. The Company immediately sought reconsideration by the D.C. District Court, which was denied. The Company then appealed the D.C. District Court’s decision to the D.C. Circuit. In June 2020, while its appeal remained pending, the Company was required to revert to the original base date AMP for Acthar in the government’s price reporting system.
Pursuant to the Plan and the Scheme of Arrangement, on the Effective Date, certain claims of the U.S. Department of Justice (“DOJ”) and related governmental parties relating to Acthar Gel against Mallinckrodt were deemed to have been settled, discharged, waived, released and extinguished in full against Mallinckrodt, and Mallinckrodt ceased to have any liability or obligation with respect to such claims, which will be treated in accordance with the Plan and the terms of the settlement as set forth in Note 2.
Patent Litigation
Janssen Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and Janssen Pharmaceutica NV v. Pharmascience Inc. and SpecGx LLC. In December 2019, Janssen Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and Janssen Pharmaceutica NV (collectively “Janssen”) initiated litigation against the Company and Pharmascience Inc. (“Pharmascience”) relating to the collaboration between Company and Pharmascience that resulted in Pharmascience's ANDA submission, containing a Paragraph IV patent certification, with the FDA for a competing version of Invega Sustenna. Janssen alleges that the Company and Pharmascience infringe U.S. Patent No. 9,439,906. On July 13, 2022, the court administratively closed this case pending the outcome of the Federal Circuit's decision in Janssen Pharmaceuticals, Inc. v. Mylan Laboratories Limited, Case No. 22-1307.
Commercial and Securities Litigation
Acthar Gel-Related Matters
Law Enforcement Health Benefits Litigation. In May 2021, Law Enforcement Health Benefits, Inc. (“LEHB”) filed a putative class action complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois against the Company and certain of its officers and directors as well as third-party advisors captioned Law Enforcement Health Benefits, Inc. v. Trudeau, et al., No. 3:21-cv-50215 (N.D. Ill.) (“LEHB”). The complaint alleges antitrust claims under Section 1 and Section 2 and numerous state laws, RICO claims under 18 U.S.C. §§ 1962(a), 1962(c) and 1962(d), fraud, conspiracy to defraud, and unjust enrichment and incorporates the allegations at issue in Rockford and the Rockford-related cases. After the complaint was filed, the Company requested that the district court stay the case in light of the Chapter 11 Cases. The motion to stay was granted. In June 2021, LEHB voluntarily dismissed without prejudice the Mallinckrodt defendant entities that are debtors in the Chapter 11 Cases. In July 2021, LEHB voluntarily dismissed without prejudice most of the Company’s officers and directors as named defendants in the case. As of March 10, 2022, the U.S. District Court lifted the stay in this matter and established an initial schedule for the proceedings. At this stage, the Company is not able to reasonably estimate the expected amount or range of cost or any loss associated with this lawsuit. On April 26, 2022, the Company filed a motion to dismiss, which remains pending. The Company intends to vigorously defend itself in this matter.
For additional details on Rockford and the Rockford-related cases, refer to the notes to the financial statements included within the Company's Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.
Other Commercial and Securities Litigation Matters
Shareholder Litigation (HealthCor). In October 2020, four purported shareholders of the Company's stock filed a complaint in the D.C. District Court against the Company, its former CEO Mark C. Trudeau and its former Chief Financial Officer ("CFO") Matthew K. Harbaugh. The lawsuit, captioned HealthCor Offshore Master Fund, L.P., et al. v. Mallinckrodt plc, et al., asserts claims for false and misleading statements in violation of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder, common law fraud, and negligent misrepresentation arising from substantially similar allegations from the putative class action securities litigation that was filed against the Company and certain of its officers in January 2017, captioned Patricia A. Shenk v. Mallinckrodt plc, et al ("Shenk"). The complaint seeks damages in an unspecified amount. As to the Company, this litigation had subject to the automatic stay under §362 of the Bankruptcy Code and on December 4, 2020, the Bankruptcy Court also enjoined the proceedings against the individual named defendants. The Bankruptcy Court extended the injunction staying the proceedings against the individual named defendants on August 30, 2021. The plaintiffs subsequently appealed the Bankruptcy Court action to the U.S. District Court in Delaware through an interlocutory appeal, which was denied on November 10, 2021. The Bankruptcy Court further extended the injunction on November 29, 2021 and on March 17, 2022. The Bankruptcy Court's injunction expired on the Effective Date. Following mediation, the parties have reached an agreement to settle the action, pursuant to which the plaintiffs are expected to file a notice of voluntary dismissal with prejudice later this month.
Shareholder Derivative Litigation (Brandhorst). In September 2019, a purported shareholder of the Company's stock filed a shareholder derivative complaint in the D.C. District Court against the Company, as nominal defendant, as well as its former CEO, its former CFO, its Executive Vice President Hugh O'Neill, and the following members of the former Board of Directors: Angus Russell, David Carlucci, J. Martin Carroll, David Norton, JoAnn Reed and Kneeland Youngblood (collectively with Trudeau, Harbaugh and O'Neill, the “Brandhorst Defendants”). The lawsuit is captioned Lynn Brandhorst, derivatively on behalf of nominal defendant Mallinckrodt PLC v. Mark Trudeau et al. and relies on the allegations contained in the Shenk class action lawsuit. The complaint asserts claims for contribution, breaches of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment, abuse of control, and gross mismanagement, and is premised on allegations that the Brandhorst Defendants caused the Company to make the allegedly false or misleading statements at issue in the Shenk class action lawsuit. The complaint seeks damages in an unspecified amount and corporate governance reforms. On November 20, 2019, this matter was stayed by agreement of the parties pending resolution of the Shenk lawsuit below. As to the Company, this litigation is subject to the automatic stay under §362 of the Bankruptcy Code, and on December 4, 2020, the Bankruptcy Court also enjoined the proceedings against the Brandhorst Defendants. The Bankruptcy Court extended the injunction staying the proceedings against the Brandhorst Defendants on August 30, 2021, and further extended the injunction on November 29, 2021 and on March 17, 2022. The Bankruptcy Court’s injunction expired on the Effective Date. On August 2, 2022, plaintiff filed a notice of voluntary dismissal, thereby terminating the Brandhorst action.
Putative Class Action Securities Litigation (Strougo). In July 2019, a putative class action lawsuit was filed against the Company, its former CEO Mark C. Trudeau, its CFO Bryan M. Reasons, its former Interim CFO George A. Kegler and its former CFO Matthew K. Harbaugh, in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, captioned Barbara Strougo v. Mallinckrodt plc, et al. The complaint purports to be brought on behalf of all persons who purchased or otherwise acquired Mallinckrodt's securities between February 28, 2018 and July 16, 2019. The lawsuit generally alleges that the defendants made false and/or misleading statements in violation of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder related to the Company's clinical study designed to assess the efficacy and safety of its Acthar Gel in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. The lawsuit seeks monetary damages in an unspecified amount. A lead plaintiff was designated by the court on June 25, 2020, and on July 30, 2020, the court approved the transfer of the case to the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey. On August 10, 2020, an amended
complaint was filed by the lead plaintiff alleging an expended putative class period of May 3, 2016 through March 18, 2020 against the Company and Mark C. Trudeau, Bryan M. Reasons, George A. Kegler and Matthew K. Harbaugh, as well as newly named defendants Kathleen A. Schaefer, Angus C. Russell, Melvin D. Booth, JoAnn A. Reed, Paul R. Carter, and Mark J. Casey (collectively with Trudeau, Reasons, Kegler and Harbaugh, the "Strougo Defendants"). The amended complaint claims that the defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (i) the CMS had informed the Company that it was using the wrong base date AMP for calculating the Medicaid rebate the Company owed CMS for Acthar Gel each quarter since 2014; (ii) the Company’s reported net income was improperly inflated in violation of GAAP; (iii) the Company’s contingent liabilities associated with the rebates owed to CMS for Acthar Gel were misrepresented; (iv) the Company’s fiscal year 2019 guidance for Acthar Gel net sales was false; (v) the Company failed to disclose material information regarding the cases captioned Landolt v. Mallinckrodt ARD LLC, No. 1:18-cv-11931-PBS (D. Mass.) (Landolt) and U.S. ex rel. Strunck v. Mallinckrodt ARD LLC, No. 2:12-cv-0175-BMS (E.D. Pa.) (Strunck), or the related investigation by the DOJ and (vi) the Company failed to disclose that the clinical trials for Acthar Gel were purportedly initiated in order to make it appear that alternative revenue opportunities for Acthar Gel existed and thus offset the expected 10% decline in net sales as a result of the rebates the Company now had to pay. On October 1, 2020, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint. As to the Company, this litigation was subject to the automatic stay under §362 of the Bankruptcy Code, and on December 4, 2020, the Bankruptcy Court also enjoined proceedings against the Strougo Defendants. The plaintiffs subsequently appealed the Bankruptcy Court action to the U.S. District Court in Delaware through a motion for reconsideration, which was denied by that court on January 27, 2021. The Bankruptcy Court extended the injunction staying the proceedings against the Strougo Defendants on August 30, 2021, and further extended the injunction on November 29, 2021 and on March 17, 2022. On March 17, 2022, the Strougo action was administratively closed. On March 29, 2022, the Strougo action was reinstated only with respect to the individual defendants, and the individual defendants filed their reply in support of their motion to dismiss on May 2, 2022. On July 21, 2022, the Company filed a notice of discharge, informing the court that (i) the Bankruptcy Court confirmed the Company’s Plan; (ii) the Company’s discharge pursuant to Section 1141(d) of the Bankruptcy Code of the claims asserted against it the Strougo action had taken effect; and (iii) the Plan and the discharge injunction enjoin any party from, among other things, continue to pursue claims against the Company in the Strougo action.
Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP) Securities Litigation. In July 2017, a purported purchaser of Mallinckrodt stock through Mallinckrodt's ESPPs filed a derivative and class action lawsuit in the Federal District Court in the Eastern District of Missouri, captioned Solomon v. Mallinckrodt plc, et al., against the Company, its former CEO, its former CFO Matthew K. Harbaugh, its Controller Kathleen A. Schaefer, and current and former directors of the Company (collectively, the “Solomon Defendants”). On September 6, 2017, plaintiff voluntarily dismissed its complaint in the Federal District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri and refiled virtually the same complaint in the D.C. District Court. The complaint purports to be brought on behalf of all persons who purchased or otherwise acquired Mallinckrodt stock between November 25, 2014, and January 18, 2017, through the ESPPs. In the alternative, the plaintiff alleges a class action for those same purchasers/acquirers of stock in the ESPPs during the same period. The complaint asserts claims under Section 11 of the Securities Act and for breach of fiduciary duty, misrepresentation, non-disclosure, mismanagement of the ESPPs’ assets and breach of contract arising from substantially similar allegations as those contained in the Shenk class action lawsuit. Stipulated co-lead plaintiffs were approved by the court on March 1, 2018. Co-lead Plaintiffs filed an amended complaint on June 4, 2018 having a class period of July 14, 2014 to November 6, 2017. The complaint seeks damages in an unspecified amount. On July 6, 2018, this matter was stayed by agreement of the parties pending resolution of the Shenk class action lawsuit. The defendants intend to vigorously defend themselves in this matter. On October 13, 2020, the trial court entered an order acknowledging the automatic stay of this litigation as to the Company pursuant to §362 of the Bankruptcy Code, and on December 4, 2020, the Bankruptcy Court also enjoined the proceedings against the individual named defendants. The Bankruptcy Court extended the injunction staying the proceedings against the individual named defendants on August 30, 2021, and further extended the injunction on November 29, 2021 and on March 17, 2022. The Bankruptcy Court’s injunction expired on the Effective Date. On August 2, 2022, the D.C. District Court considered and approved the settlement of the Shenk class action lawsuit, and further issued an order in the Solomon action directing the parties to file a status report and schedule for further proceedings by August 30, 2022.
Putative Class Action Securities Litigation (Shenk v Mallinckrodt plc, et al., U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia). On August 2, 2022, the District Court granted final approval of the settlement, entered final judgment, and dismissed the action with prejudice.

Environmental Remediation and Litigation Proceedings
The Company is involved in various stages of investigation and cleanup related to environmental remediation matters at a number of sites, including those described below. The ultimate cost of site cleanup and timing of future cash outlays is difficult to predict, given the uncertainties regarding the extent of the required cleanup, the interpretation of applicable laws and regulations and alternative cleanup methods. The Company concluded that, as of July 1, 2022, it was probable that it would incur remediation costs in the range of $19.7 million to $50.0 million. The Company also concluded that, as of July 1, 2022, the best estimate within this range was $38.4 million, of which $1.2 million was included in accrued and other current liabilities and the remainder was included in environmental liabilities on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of July 1, 2022. While it is not possible at this time to determine with certainty the ultimate outcome of these matters, the Company believes, given the information currently available, that the final resolution of all known claims, after taking into account amounts already accrued, will not have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Upon effectuation of the Plan, certain of the Company's environmental liabilities were discharged. Refer to Note 2 for further information.
Crab Orchard National Wildlife Refuge Superfund Site, near Marion, Illinois. Between 1967 and 1982, International Minerals and Chemicals Corporation, a predecessor in interest to the Company, leased portions of the Additional and Uncharacterized Sites ("AUS") Operable Unit at the Crab Orchard Superfund Site ("the CO Site") from the government and manufactured various explosives for use in mining and other operations. In March 2002, the DOJ, the U.S. Department of the Interior and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) (together, "the Government Agencies") issued a special notice letter to General Dynamics Ordinance and Tactical Systems, Inc. ("General Dynamics"), one of the other potentially responsible parties ("PRPs") at the CO Site, to compel General Dynamics to perform the remedial investigation and feasibility study ("RI/FS") for the AUS Operable Unit. General Dynamics negotiated an Administrative Order of Consent with the Government Agencies to conduct an extensive RI/FS at the CO Site under the direction of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. General Dynamics asserted in August 2004 that the Company is jointly and severally liable, along with approximately eight other lessees and operators at the AUS Operable Unit, for costs associated with alleged contamination of soils and groundwater resulting from historic operations, and the parties have entered into a non-binding mediation process. However, the mediation process has indefinitely stalled due to an "internal issue" that the Government Agencies are facing and cannot seem to resolve.
Subsequent to the issuance of the Company's predecessor financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, the Company increased the accrual associated with this matter by $11.1 million to $57.4 million, which represented the Company's estimate of its liability related to this environmental site. The non-cash charge of $11.1 million was reflected in the predecessor unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations as a component of operating expenses. Pursuant to the Plan, this liability was discharged as a general unsecured claim. Refer to Note 2 for further information.
Bankruptcy Appeals
First Lien Noteholder Matters. As set forth in greater detail in Note 2, the Plan proposed to reinstate the Existing First Lien Notes. Certain holders of the Existing First Lien Notes and the trustee in respect thereof (collectively, the “Noteholder Parties”), objected to the proposed reinstatement, arguing, among other things, that the Company was required to pay a significant make-whole premium as a condition to reinstatement of the Existing First Lien Notes. In the course of confirming the Plan, the Bankruptcy Court overruled these objections.
On March 30, 2022, the Noteholder Parties appealed the Confirmation Order’s approval of the reinstatement of the Existing First Lien Notes to the United States District Court for the District of Delaware. The Company and the Existing First Lien Notes Trustee reached an agreement to hold the trustee’s appeal in abeyance, to be determined by the result of the holders’ appeals, subject to certain conditions, which was approved by the District Court. Briefing on the merits of the Noteholder Parties’ appeals was completed on July 1, 2022. On the same date, the Company moved to dismiss the Noteholder Parties’ appeals as equitably moot. Briefing on the motion was completed on August 5, 2022. The Noteholder Parties’ appeals and the related motion to dismiss remain pending.
At this stage, the Company is not able to reasonably estimate the expected amount or range of cost or any loss associated with these appeals. The Company will continue to vigorously defend the Plan.
Sanofi. On October 12, 2021, in the Company’s bankruptcy, sanofi-aventis U.S. LLC (“Sanofi”) filed a motion asking the Bankruptcy Court for an order determining that, under the Bankruptcy Code, the Company could not discharge alleged royalty obligations owed to Sanofi under an asset purchase agreement through which the Company acquired certain intellectual property from Sanofi’s predecessor (the “Sanofi Motion”). On November 8, 2021, the Bankruptcy Court denied the Sanofi Motion and ordered that any royalty obligations allegedly owed to Sanofi constitute prepetition unsecured claims that may be discharged under the Bankruptcy Code. On November 19, 2021, Sanofi appealed the Bankruptcy Court’s ruling to the District Court. Briefing was completed on March 10, 2022. On July 1, 2022, the Company moved to dismiss Sanofi’s appeal as equitably moot. Briefing on that motion was completed on August 5, 2022. The appeal and related motion to dismiss remain pending.
Glenridge. On October 21, 2021, in the Company’s bankruptcy, Kenneth Greathouse, Stuart Rose, and Lloyd Glenn (collectively, the “Glenridge Principals”) filed a joinder to the Sanofi Motion and asked the Bankruptcy Court for an order similarly determining that royalty obligations owed by the Company to the Glenridge Principals under a royalty agreement were not dischargeable under the Bankruptcy Code and that the royalty agreement could not be rejected by the Company in its bankruptcy. On December 1, 2021, the Bankruptcy Court denied the motion, entering an order that the royalty agreement between the Company and the Glenridge Principals could be rejected under the Bankruptcy Code and that any royalties owed under the agreement were prepetition unsecured claims that could be discharged under the Bankruptcy Code. On December 15, 2021, the Glenridge Principals appealed the Bankruptcy Court’s ruling to the District Court. Briefing has not been completed at this time.
Acthar Insurance Claimants. In the Company’s bankruptcy, Attestor Limited and Humana Inc. (collectively, the “Acthar Insurance Claimants”) filed administrative claims with the Bankruptcy Court seeking hundreds of millions of dollars based on the Company’s allegedly illegal sales of Acthar Gel. The Company objected to the claims, arguing that the Company had no such liability. After a bench trial, the Bankruptcy Court, on December 6, 2021, sustained the Company’s objection and disallowed the administrative claims filed by the Acthar Insurance Claimants. The Acthar Insurance Claimants appealed that ruling to the District Court on December 20, 2021. On February 4, 2022, the Acthar Insurance Claimants moved to have the District Court certify their appeal directly to the Third Circuit. Briefing on that motion was completed on February 25, 2022; the motion remains pending. The parties have agreed to stay the briefing on the merits of the appeal pending the District Court’s decision regarding certification. Meanwhile, on July 1, 2022, the Company moved to dismiss the Acthar Insurance Claimants’ appeal as equitably moot. Briefing on that motion was completed on August 5, 2022 and remains pending.
Stratatech. As described in Note 14, consummation of the Plan discharged the Company’s liability with respect to certain contingent consideration provided to the prior shareholders of Stratatech Corporation ("Stratatech"). However, the representative of these shareholders has indicated his intention to challenge in the bankruptcy court whether the liability was susceptible to discharge, among other things, and the parties have agreed on a schedule for litigating these matters.
Internal Revenue Code Section 453A Interest
As a result of historical internal installment sales, the Company has reported Internal Revenue Code ("IRC") §453A interest on its tax returns on the basis of its interpretation of the IRC. Alternative interpretations of these provisions could result in additional interest payable. Due to the inherent uncertainty in these interpretations, the Company has deferred the recognition of the benefit associated with the Company's interpretation and maintained a corresponding liability of $12.4 million within other liabilities in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021. Upon effectuation of the Plan, this liability was discharged.
Other Matters
The Company's legal proceedings and claims are further described within the notes to the financial statements included within the Company's Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.

14. | Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements |
Fair value is defined as the exit price that would be received from the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability, using assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The fair value guidance establishes a three-level fair value hierarchy, which maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs used in measuring fair value. The levels within the hierarchy are as follows:
Level 1— observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2— significant other observable inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3— significant unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which requires the Company to develop its own assumptions.
The following tables provide a summary of the significant assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at the end of each period:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| July 1, 2022 (Successor) | | Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1) | | Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) | | Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) |
Assets: | | | | | | | |
Debt and equity securities held in rabbi trusts | $ | 33.5 | | | $ | 22.0 | | | $ | 11.5 | | | $ | — | |

| December 31, 2021 (Predecessor) | | Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1) | | Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) | | Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) |
Assets: | | | | | | | |
Debt and equity securities held in rabbi trusts | $ | 38.7 | | | $ | 24.9 | | | $ | 13.8 | | | $ | — | |
Equity securities | 36.5 | | | 36.5 | | | — | | | — | |

| | | | | | | |
| $ | 64.2 | | | $ | — | | | $ | 36.9 | | | $ | 27.3 | |
Debt and equity securities held in rabbi trusts. Debt securities held in rabbi trusts primarily consist of U.S. government and agency securities and corporate bonds. When quoted prices are available in an active market, the investments are classified as level 1. When quoted market prices for a security are not available in an active market, they are classified as level 2. Equity securities held in rabbi trusts primarily consist of U.S. common stocks, which are valued using quoted market prices reported on nationally recognized securities exchanges.
Equity securities. Equity securities consist of shares in Silence Therapeutics plc and Panbela Therapeutics, Inc. for which quoted prices are available in an active market; therefore, these investments are classified as level 1 and are valued based on quoted market prices reported on internationally recognized securities exchanges.
Deferred compensation liabilities. The Company maintains a non-qualified deferred compensation plan in the U.S., which permits eligible employees of the Company to defer a portion of their compensation. A recordkeeping account is set up for each participant and the participant chooses from a variety of funds for the deemed investment of their accounts. The recordkeeping accounts generally correspond to the funds offered in the Company's U.S. tax-qualified defined contribution retirement plan and the account balance fluctuates with the investment returns on those funds.
Successor contingent consideration liabilities. In accordance with the Plan and Scheme of Arrangement, the Company will provide consideration for a CVR associated with terlipressin primarily in the form of the achievement of a cumulative net sales milestone. The Company assesses the likelihood and timing of making such payments at each balance sheet date. The fair value of the contingent payment was measured based on the net present value of a probability-weighted assessment. The Company determined the fair value of the terlipressin CVR to be $6.8 million as of July 1, 2022 (Successor).
Predecessor contingent consideration liabilities. As part of the acquisition of Stratatech, the Company provided contingent consideration to the prior shareholders of Stratatech, primarily in the form of regulatory filing and approval milestones associated with the deep partial-thickness and full-thickness indications associated with StrataGraft. For each indication, the Company was responsible for a payment upon acceptance of the Company's submission and another upon approval by the FDA. The Company determined the fair value of the contingent consideration associated with the acquisition of Stratatech to be $27.3 million as of December 31, 2021 (Predecessor). These liabilities were governed by a contract and recorded at their estimated allowed claim amount within LSTC in the
unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021 (Predecessor). The contract governing this liability was rejected and the liability was discharged pursuant to the Plan on the Effective Date. Refer to Note 13 for further information.
Financial Instruments Not Measured at Fair Value
The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating fair values for financial instruments not measured at fair value as of July 1, 2022 (Successor) and December 31, 2021 (Predecessor):
•The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and the majority of other current assets and liabilities approximate fair value because of their short-term nature. The Company classifies cash on hand and deposits in banks, including commercial paper, money market accounts and other investments it may hold from time to time, with an original maturity of three months or less, as cash and cash equivalents (level 1). The fair value of restricted cash was equivalent to its carrying value of $136.5 million and $60.2 million as of July 1, 2022 (Successor) and December 31, 2021 (Predecessor) (level 1), respectively. Included within the balance as of July 1, 2022 was $76.1 million related to the funding of a professional fee escrow account upon emergence from Chapter 11. Refer to Note 3 for further information.
•The Company's life insurance contracts are carried at cash surrender value, which is based on the present value of future cash flows under the terms of the contracts (level 3). Significant assumptions used in determining the cash surrender value include the amount and timing of future cash flows, interest rates and mortality charges. The fair value of these contracts approximates the carrying value of $48.7 million and $51.3 million as of July 1, 2022 (Successor) and December 31, 2021 (Predecessor), respectively. These contracts are included in other assets on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.
•Successor debt. The Company's Existing 1L Notes, New 2L Notes, New 1L Notes and Takeback 2L Notes are classified as level 1, as quoted prices are available in an active market for these notes. Since quoted market prices for the Company's term loans are not available in an active market, they are classified as level 2 for purposes of developing an estimate of fair value.
Predecessor debt. The carrying value of the Company's former revolving credit facility approximated the fair value due to the short-term nature of this instrument, and was therefore classified as level 1. The Company's former 5.75%, 4.75%, 5.625%, 5.50% senior notes and 10.00% first and second lien senior secured notes were classified as level 1, as quoted prices were available in an active market for these notes. Since the quoted market prices for the Company's former term loans and former 9.50% and 8.00% debentures were not available in an active market, they were classified as level 2 for purposes of developing an estimate of fair value.
The following table presents the carrying values and estimated fair values of the Company's debt as of the end of each period:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Successor | | | Predecessor |

Concentration of Credit and Other Risks
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk primarily consist of accounts receivable. The Company generally does not require collateral from customers. A portion of the Company's accounts receivable outside the U.S. includes sales to government-owned or supported healthcare systems in several countries, which are subject to payment delays. Payment is dependent upon the financial stability and creditworthiness of those countries' national economies.

*Net sales attributable to this product was less than 10.0% of total net sales for the respective periods presented above.
The Company operates in two reportable segments, which are further described below:
•Specialty Brands includes innovative specialty pharmaceutical brands; and
•Specialty Generics includes niche specialty generic drugs and APIs.
Management measures and evaluates the Company's operating segments based on segment net sales and operating income. Management excludes corporate expenses from segment operating income. In addition, certain amounts that management considers to be non-recurring or non-operational are excluded from segment operating income because management and the chief operating decision maker evaluate the operating results of the segments excluding such items. These items may include, but are not limited to, depreciation and amortization, share-based compensation, net restructuring charges, non-restructuring impairment charges and separation costs. Although these amounts are excluded from segment operating income, as applicable, they are included in reported consolidated operating loss and are reflected in the reconciliations presented below.
Selected information by reportable segment was as follows:
