QuidelOrtho Corporation

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

Note 1. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements of QuidelOrtho Corporation and its subsidiaries (the “Company” or “QuidelOrtho”) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation (consisting of normal recurring accruals) have been included.

The information at July 2, 2023, and for the three and six months ended July 2, 2023 and July 3, 2022, is unaudited. For further information, refer to the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2023 included in QuidelOrtho’s 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Operating results for any quarter are historically seasonal in nature and are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year.

The Company follows the concept of a fiscal year that ends on the Sunday nearest to the end of the month of December, and fiscal quarters that end on the Sunday nearest to the end of the months of March, June and September. For 2023 and 2022, the Company’s fiscal year will end or has ended on December 31, 2023 and January 1, 2023, respectively. For 2023 and 2022, the Company’s second quarter ended on July 2, 2023 and July 3, 2022, respectively. The three and six months ended July 2, 2023 and July 3, 2022 each included 13 and 26 weeks, respectively.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

There have been no accounting pronouncements issued or adopted during the six months ended July 2, 2023 that are expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Note 2. Business Combination

On May 27, 2022, pursuant to a Business Combination Agreement entered into as of December 22, 2021 (the “BCA”), by and among Quidel Corporation (“Quidel”), Ortho Clinical Diagnostics Holdings plc (“Ortho”), QuidelOrtho (formerly Coronado Topco, Inc.), Orca Holdco, Inc., Laguna Merger Sub, Inc. and Orca Holdco 2, Inc., Quidel and Ortho consummated a business combination (the “Combinations”) and each of Quidel and Ortho became a wholly owned subsidiary of QuidelOrtho. As a result of the Combinations, QuidelOrtho became the successor issuer to Quidel. The Combinations enhance the Company’s revenue profile and expand the Company’s geographic footprint and product diversity.

The Combinations were completed for a total consideration of approximately $4.3 billion, which included the fair value of equity issued based on the May 26, 2022 closing price of $99.60 per share of Quidel common stock. Former Ortho shareholders received $7.14 in cash and 0.1055 shares of QuidelOrtho common stock for each Ortho ordinary share. The Company funded the cash portion of the purchase price with cash on its balance sheet and a portion of the Term Loan proceeds from the Financing (each as defined in Note 8).

The Combinations have been accounted for as a business combination, which requires that assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at their fair value as of the date of the consummation of the Combinations, with Quidel considered the accounting and the legal acquirer. The assessment of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed was finalized in the second quarter of 2023. Measurement period adjustments decreased goodwill by $23.9 million in the six months ended July 2, 2023, reflecting (i) an increase of $22.3 million to deferred tax liability, (ii) an increase of $2.9 million to income tax payable and (iii) a decrease of $1.3 million in deferred tax asset. The related impact to net earnings that would have been recognized in previous periods if the adjustments were recognized as of the date of the consummation of the Combinations is immaterial to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The following unaudited supplemental pro forma financial information shows the combined results of operations of the Company as if the Combinations had occurred on January 4, 2021, the beginning of the periods presented:


	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
(In millions)	July 3, 2022		July 4, 2021		July 3, 2022		July 4, 2021
Pro forma total revenues	$	898.5	$	669.1	$	2,400.9	$	1,551.2
Pro forma net income (loss)	22.3		(13.0)		500.8		116.7

This unaudited supplemental pro forma financial information is presented for informational purposes only and is not indicative of the results of operations that would have been achieved had the Combinations been completed at the beginning of fiscal year 2021. In addition, the unaudited supplemental pro forma financial information is not a projection of the Company’s future results of operations, nor does it reflect the expected realization of any synergies or cost savings associated with the Combinations. The unaudited supplemental pro forma financial information includes adjustments for:

•incremental intangible assets amortization expense based on the preliminary fair values of the identifiable intangible assets acquired;

•incremental cost of sales related to the fair value step-up of inventory;

•decreases in interest expense associated with the issuance of debt to finance the Combinations and to repay Ortho’s then-outstanding indebtedness, including the net impact of the removal of the amortization of the discount on Ortho’s indebtedness and the change in amortization of deferred financing fees;

•the removal of loss on extinguishment of debt from Ortho’s results in fiscal year 2021 and the reclassification of loss on extinguishment of debt in fiscal years 2021 and 2022;

•the reclassification of expense related to the accelerated vesting of certain stock awards of Ortho’s former chief executive officer; and

•tax impacts related to the above adjustments.

Note 3. Computation of Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted EPS is computed based on the sum of the weighted-average number of shares of common stock and potentially dilutive shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Potentially dilutive shares of common stock consist of shares issuable from stock options and unvested restricted stock units (“RSUs”). Potentially dilutive shares of common stock from outstanding stock options and unvested RSUs are determined using the average share price for each period under the treasury stock method.

The following table presents the calculation of the weighted-average shares used in computing basic and diluted EPS:


	Three Months Ended		Six Months Ended
(In millions)	July 2, 2023	July 3, 2022	July 2, 2023	July 3, 2022






Basic weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding	66.8	52.2	66.7	47.0

Dilutive potential shares issuable from stock options and RSUs(1)	—	0.7	—	0.7
Diluted weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding	66.8	52.9	66.7	47.7

(1) In the three and six months ended July 2, 2023, all potential shares of common stock issuable for stock options and RSUs were excluded from the dilutive calculations above because the effect of including them would have been anti-dilutive. The dilutive effect of potential shares of common stock issuable for stock options and RSUs on the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding would have been as follows:


	Three Months Ended	Six Months Ended
(In millions)	July 2, 2023	July 2, 2023
Basic weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding	66.8	66.7
Dilutive potential shares issuable from stock options and RSUs	0.4	0.5
Diluted weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding	67.2	67.2

Stock options and RSUs where the combined exercise price and unrecognized stock-based compensation was greater than the average market price for the Company’s common stock were not included in the computations of diluted weighted-average

shares because the effect would have been anti-dilutive. These stock options and RSUs represented 1.2 million and 1.1 million shares of common stock for the three and six months ended July 2, 2023, respectively, and 1.0 million and 0.9 million shares of common stock for the three and six months ended July 3, 2022, respectively.

Note 4. Revenue

Contract Balances

Timing of revenue recognition may differ from timing of invoicing to customers. The Company records an asset when revenue is recognized prior to invoicing a customer (a “contract asset”). Contract assets are included within Prepaid expenses and other current assets in the Company’s unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets and are transferred to accounts receivable when the right to payment becomes unconditional. The balance of contract assets recorded in the Company’s unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets as of July 2, 2023 and January 1, 2023 was $59.3 million and $49.6 million, respectively.

The contract asset balance consisted of the following components, all of which related to agreements acquired by the Company in connection with the Combinations:

•a customer supply agreement under which the difference between the timing of invoicing and revenue recognition resulted in a contract asset of $5.7 million and $6.8 million as of July 2, 2023 and January 1, 2023, respectively;

•contractual arrangements with certain customers under which the Company invoices the customers based on reportable results generated by its reagents; however, control of the goods transfers to the customers upon shipment or delivery of the products, as determined under the terms of the contract. Using the expected value method, the Company estimates the number of reagents that will generate a reportable result. The Company records the revenue upon shipment and an associated contract asset, and relieves the contract asset upon completion of the invoicing. The balance of the contract asset related to these arrangements was $44.7 million and $38.5 million as of July 2, 2023 and January 1, 2023, respectively; and

•one of the Company’s contract manufacturing agreements that recognizes revenue as the products are manufactured resulted in a contract asset of $8.9 million and $4.3 million as of July 2, 2023 and January 1, 2023, respectively.

The Company reviews contract assets for expected credit losses resulting from the collectability of customer accounts. Expected losses are established based on historical losses, customer mix and credit policies, current economic conditions in customers’ country or industry, and expectations associated with reasonable and supportable forecasts. No credit losses related to contract assets were recognized during the three and six months ended July 2, 2023.

The Company recognizes a contract liability when a customer pays an invoice prior to the Company transferring control of the goods or services (“contract liabilities”). The Company’s contract liabilities consist of deferred revenue primarily related to customer service contracts. The Company classifies deferred revenue as current or non-current based on the timing of the transfer of control or performance of the service. The balance of the Company’s current deferred revenue was $41.2 million as of July 2, 2023 and $76.4 million as of January 1, 2023. The Company has one arrangement with a customer where the revenue is expected to be recognized beyond one year. The balance of the deferred revenue included in long-term liabilities was $13.5 million and $9.4 million as of July 2, 2023 and January 1, 2023, respectively, and was included in Other liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The amount of deferred revenue as of January 1, 2023 that was recorded in Total revenues during the three and six months ended July 2, 2023 was $19.5 million and $68.5 million, respectively.

Joint Business with Grifols

In connection with the Combinations, the Company acquired the ongoing collaboration arrangement (the “Joint Business”) between Ortho and Grifols Diagnostic Solutions, Inc. (“Grifols”), under which Ortho and Grifols agreed to pursue a collaboration relating to Ortho’s Hepatitis and HIV diagnostics business. The governance of the Joint Business is shared through a supervisory board made up of equal representation by Ortho and Grifols, which is responsible for all significant decisions relating to the Joint Business that are not exclusively assigned to either Ortho or Grifols, as defined in the Joint Business agreement. The Company’s portion of the pre-tax net profit shared under the Joint Business was $6.1 million and $29.7 million during the three and six months ended July 2, 2023, respectively, and $5.6 million during the three and six months ended July 3, 2022. This included the Company’s portion of the pre-tax net profit of $5.5 million and $6.7 million during the three and six months ended July 2, 2023, respectively, and $3.6 million during the three and six months ended July 3, 2022, on sales transactions with third parties where the Company is the principal. The Company recognized revenues, cost of sales, excluding amortization of intangibles, and operating expenses, on a gross basis on these sales transactions in their respective lines in the unaudited Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company’s portion of the pre-tax net profit also included revenue from collaboration and royalty agreements of $0.6 million and $23.0 million during the three and six months ended July 2, 2023, respectively, and $2.0 million during the three and six months ended July 3, 2022, which is presented on a net basis within Total revenues.

In the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company revised the internal allocation of certain global costs primarily between the North America segment and Corporate to better align costs that impact the Company as a whole. Prior periods have been revised to

align with the current period presentation. The following table sets forth Adjusted EBITDA by segment and the reconciliations to (Loss) income before income taxes for the three and six months ended July 2, 2023 and July 3, 2022:

(1) Primarily consists of costs related to executive and staff functions, including certain finance, human resources, manufacturing and information technology (“IT”) functions, which benefit the Company as a whole. These costs are primarily related to the general management of these functions on a corporate level and the design and development of programs, policies and procedures that are then implemented in the individual segments, with each segment bearing its own cost of implementation. The Company’s corporate function also includes debt and stock-based compensation associated with all employee stock-based awards.

(2) Represents incremental consulting costs and research and development (“R&D”) manufacturing site costs to align compliance of Ortho’s existing, on-market products that were previously registered under the European In Vitro Diagnostics Directive regulatory framework with the requirements under the EU’s In Vitro Diagnostic Regulation, which generally apply from May 2022 onwards.

The chief operating decision maker does not review capital expenditures, total depreciation and amortization or assets by segment, and therefore this information has been excluded as it does not comprise part of management’s key performance metrics.

Note 6. Income Taxes

The Company calculates its interim income tax provision in accordance with ASC 270, Interim Reporting, and ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes. At the end of each interim period, the Company estimates its annual effective tax rate and applies that rate to its ordinary quarterly earnings to calculate the tax related to ordinary income. The tax effects for other items that are excluded from ordinary income are discretely calculated and recognized in the period in which they occur.

For the three months ended July 2, 2023, the Company recognized an income tax benefit of $11.2 million in relation to loss before income taxes of $64.4 million, resulting in an effective benefit tax rate of 17.4%. For the three months ended July 3, 2022, the Company recognized a provision for income taxes of $23.6 million in relation to income before income taxes of $42.9 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 55.0%. For the three months ended July 2, 2023, the effective tax rate for the period differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily due to non-U.S. earnings being taxed at rates that are different than the U.S. statutory rate, operating losses in certain subsidiaries not being benefited due to the establishment of valuation allowances, R&D credits and foreign tax credits, partially offset by foreign exchange losses and Global Intangible Low-Tax Income. For the three months ended July 3, 2022, the effective tax rate was impacted primarily by income taxes owed in U.S. states.

For the six months ended July 2, 2023, the recognized amount of income tax benefit was not material in relation to loss before income taxes of $4.4 million, resulting in an effective benefit tax rate of 0.7%. For the six months ended July 3, 2022, the Company recognized a provision for income taxes of $164.3 million in relation to income before income taxes of $663.5 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 24.8%. For the six months ended July 2, 2023, the effective tax rate for the period differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily due to net operating losses in certain subsidiaries not being benefited due to the establishment of valuation allowances and Global Intangible Low-Tax Income, partially offset by U.S. earnings being taxed at rates that are different than the U.S. statutory rate, R&D credit, Foreign Tax Credits and foreign exchange losses. For the six months ended July 3, 2022, the effective tax rate was primarily impacted by incomes taxes owed in the U.S. states.

The balance of unrecognized tax benefits at July 2, 2023, not including interest and penalties, was $38.8 million, of which $27.6 million could affect the effective income tax rate in future periods, if recognized. The Company also recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in tax expense. At July 2, 2023, the Company had approximately $8.1 million of interest and penalties accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits. The Company estimates that within the next 12 months, its uncertain tax positions, excluding interest, will decrease by $14.3 million.

The Company is subject to periodic audits by domestic and foreign tax authorities. Due to the carryforward of unutilized credits, the Company’s federal tax years from 2012 and onwards are subject to examination by the U.S. authorities. The Company’s state and foreign tax years for 2001 and onwards are subject to examination by applicable tax authorities. The Company believes that it has appropriate support for the income tax positions taken on its tax returns and that its accruals for tax liabilities are adequate for all open years based on an assessment of many factors, including past experience and interpretations of tax laws applied to the facts of each matter.

Indemnification Assets

On January 16, 2014, Ortho entered into a stock and asset purchase agreement of (i) certain assets and liabilities and (ii) all of the equity interests and substantially all of the assets and liabilities of certain entities, which, together with their subsidiaries, comprised the Ortho business from Johnson & Johnson. The agreement generally provided that Johnson & Johnson retained all income tax liabilities accrued as of the date of the acquisition, including reserves for unrecognized tax benefits. The indemnification receivable from Johnson & Johnson totaled $16.4 million and $16.8 million as of July 2, 2023 and January 1, 2023, respectively, and is included as a component of Prepaid expenses and other current assets and Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company recorded $0.3 million and $0.7 million of interest and penalties during the three and six months ended July 2, 2023, respectively, and $0.1 million during the three and six months ended July 3, 2022.

The credit agreement, dated May 27, 2022, by and among the Company, as borrower, Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent and swing line lender, and the other lenders and L/C issuers party thereto (the “Credit Agreement”) consists of a $2,750.0 million senior secured term loan facility (the “Term Loan”) and an $800.0 million revolving credit facility (the

“Revolving Credit Facility” and with the Term Loan, the “Financing”). As of July 2, 2023 and January 1, 2023, there were no amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility. As of July 2, 2023, letters of credit issued under the Revolving Credit Facility totaled $12.9 million, which reduced the available amount under the Revolving Credit Facility to $787.1 million. During the six months ended July 2, 2023, the Company made $123.1 million in payments on the Term Loan, including a voluntary prepayment of $20.0 million.

The Credit Agreement contains affirmative and negative covenants that are customary for credit agreements of this nature. The negative covenants include, among other things, limitations on asset sales, mergers, indebtedness, liens, investments and transactions with affiliates. The Credit Agreement contains two financial covenants: (i) a maximum Consolidated Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) as of the last day of each fiscal quarter of (a) 4.50 to 1.00 for the first four fiscal quarters ending after the closing date of the Credit Agreement (the “Initial Measurement Period”), (b) 4.00 to 1.00 for the first four fiscal quarters ending after the Initial Measurement Period and (c) 3.50 to 1.00 for each fiscal quarter thereafter; and (ii) a minimum Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of 3.00 to 1.00 as of the end of any fiscal quarter for the most recently completed four fiscal quarters. The Company was in compliance with the financial covenants as of July 2, 2023.

The following table provides the detailed amounts within Interest expense, net for the three and six months ended July 2, 2023 and July 3, 2022:

Note 9. Stock-based Compensation

Stock-based compensation expense was as follows:


	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
(In millions)	July 2, 2023		July 3, 2022		July 2, 2023		July 3, 2022
Cost of sales	$	1.1	$	0.6	$	2.1	$	1.3

The table above includes compensation expense related to liability-classified awards of $2.8 million and $5.8 million for the three and six months ended July 2, 2023, respectively, and $10.9 million for the three and six months ended July 3, 2022, which has been or is expected to be settled in cash. These awards represent the $7.14 per share cash settled portion of the replacement awards issued in connection with the Combinations.

The Company granted 253 thousand stock options during the six months ended July 2, 2023. As of July 2, 2023, total unrecognized compensation expense related to stock options was approximately $25.4 million and the related weighted-average period over which it is expected to be recognized is approximately 2.0 years. The maximum contractual term of the Company’s stock options is ten years.

The estimated fair value of each stock option was determined on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model with the following weighted-average assumptions for the option grants:


	Six Months Ended
	July 2, 2023		July 3, 2022
Risk-free interest rate	3.52	%	1.99	%
Expected option life (in years)	5.53		4.89
Volatility rate	57	%	58	%
Dividend rate	0	%	0	%
Weighted-average grant date fair value	$48.17		$50.86

In January 2023, the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors approved a modification to the vesting terms of certain stock options that were previously granted by Ortho to certain Ortho employees, such that the stock options will vest on December 31, 2023. The modification resulted in an additional $3.1 million and $5.1 million of stock-based compensation expense recognized during the three and six months ended July 2, 2023, respectively. The total unrecognized expense relating to unvested shares for these stock options as of July 2, 2023 was $6.0 million and will be recognized through December 31, 2023.

The Company granted 576 thousand RSUs during the six months ended July 2, 2023. The fair value of RSUs is determined based on the closing market price of the Company’s common stock on the grant date. The weighted-average fair value of RSUs granted during the six months ended July 2, 2023 and July 3, 2022 was $87.59 and $98.38, respectively. The total amount of unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested RSUs as of July 2, 2023 was approximately $89.5 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 2.4 years.

Note 10. Commitments and Contingencies

From time to time, the Company is involved in litigation and other legal proceedings, including matters related to product liability claims, commercial disputes and intellectual property claims, as well as regulatory, employment, and other claims related to its business. The Company accrues for legal claims when, and to the extent that, amounts associated with the claims become probable and are reasonably estimable. If the reasonable estimate of a known or probable loss is a range, and no amount within the range is a better estimate than any other, the minimum amount of the range is accrued. When determining the estimated loss or range of loss, significant judgment is required to estimate the amount and timing of a loss to be recorded. Estimates of probable losses resulting from these matters are inherently difficult to predict. The actual costs of resolving legal claims may be substantially higher or lower than the amounts accrued for those claims. For those matters as to which the Company is not able to estimate a possible loss or range of loss, the Company is not able to determine whether the loss will have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

Management believes that all such current legal actions, in the aggregate, are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company. However, the resolution of, or increase in any accruals for, one or more matters may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations and cash flows.

Note 11. Fair Value Measurements

The following table presents the Company’s hierarchy for its assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of the following periods:


	July 2, 2023								January 1, 2023
(In millions)	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Assets:
Cash equivalents	$	6.1	$	—	$	—	$	6.1	$	0.6	$	2.1	$	—	$	2.7
Marketable securities	—		69.8		—		69.8		2.0		71.1		—		73.1
Derivative assets	—		32.6		—		32.6		—		22.0		—		22.0
Total assets measured at fair value	$	6.1	$	102.4	$	—	$	108.5	$	2.6	$	95.2	$	—	$	97.8
Liabilities:

Derivative liabilities	$	—	$	10.5	$	—	$	10.5	$	—	$	21.8	$	—	$	21.8

Contingent consideration	—		—		0.1		0.1		—		—		0.1		0.1
Deferred consideration	—		—		—		—		—		39.3		—		39.3
Total liabilities measured at fair value	$	—	$	10.5	$	0.1	$	10.6	$	—	$	61.1	$	0.1	$	61.2

There were no transfers of assets or liabilities into or out of Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy during the three and six months ended July 2, 2023 and fiscal year 2022.

Cash equivalents consist of funds held in money market accounts that are valued using quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments and highly liquid corporate debt securities with maturities within three months from purchase. Marketable securities consist of investment-grade corporate and government debt securities, corporate asset-backed securities and commercial paper. Derivative financial instruments are based on observable inputs that are corroborated by market data. Observable inputs include broker quotes, daily market foreign currency rates and forward pricing curves.

In connection with the acquisition of the B-type Natriuretic Peptide (“BNP”) assay business run on Beckman Coulter analyzers (“BNP Business”) from Alere Inc., the Company paid its last annual installment of $40.0 million during the three months ended July 2, 2023.

Financial Instruments Not Measured at Fair Value

The estimated fair value of the Company’s borrowings under the Term Loan was $2,476.4 million at July 2, 2023, compared to the carrying amount, excluding debt issuance costs, of $2,523.8 million. The estimate of fair value is generally based on the quoted market prices for similar issuances of long-term debt with the same maturities, which is classified as a Level 2 input.

Note 12. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

The Company selectively uses derivative and non-derivative instruments to manage market risk associated with changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. The use of derivatives is intended for hedging purposes only, and the Company does not enter into derivative transactions for speculative purposes.

Credit risk represents the Company’s gross exposure to potential accounting loss on derivative instruments that are outstanding or unsettled if all counterparties failed to perform according to the terms of the contract. The Company generally enters into master netting arrangements that reduce credit risk by permitting net settlement of transactions with the same counterparty. The Company does not have any derivative instruments with credit-risk related contingent features that would require it to post collateral.

Interest Rate Hedging Instruments

The Company’s interest rate risk relates primarily to interest rate exposures on variable rate debt, including the Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan. See Note 8 for additional information on the currently outstanding components of the Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan. The Company entered into interest rate swap agreements to hedge the related risk of the variability to the Company’s cash flows due to the rates specified for these credit facilities.

The Company designates its interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges. The Company records gains and losses due to changes in fair value of the derivatives within Other comprehensive income (loss) (“OCI”) and reclassifies these amounts to Interest expense, net in the same period or periods for which the underlying hedged transaction affects earnings. In the event the Company determines the hedged transaction is no longer probable to occur or concludes the hedge relationship is no longer

effective, the hedge is prospectively de-designated. Pre-tax unrealized gains of $29.4 million are expected to be reclassified from OCI to earnings in the next 12 months.

The following table summarizes the Company’s interest rate derivative agreements as of July 2, 2023, all of which were interest rate swaps:

Currency Hedging Instruments

The Company has currency risk exposures relating primarily to foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities and forecasted foreign currency denominated intercompany and third-party transactions. The Company uses foreign currency forward contracts and may use option contracts and cross currency swaps to manage its currency risk exposures. The Company’s foreign currency forward contracts are denominated primarily in Australian Dollar, Brazilian Real, British Pound, Canadian Dollar, Chilean Peso, Chinese Yuan/Renminbi, Euro, Indian Rupee, Japanese Yen, Mexican Peso, Swiss Franc and the Thai Baht.

The Company designates certain foreign currency forward contracts as cash flow hedges. The Company records gains and losses due to changes in fair value of the derivatives within OCI and reclassifies these amounts to Total revenues and Cost of sales, excluding amortization of intangibles in the same period or periods for which the underlying hedged transaction affects earnings. In the event the Company determines the hedged transaction is no longer probable to occur or concludes the hedge relationship is no longer effective, the hedge is prospectively de-designated. The pre-tax unrealized loss of $5.4 million within OCI as of July 2, 2023 is expected to be reclassified to earnings in the next 12 months.

The Company also enters into foreign currency forward contracts that are not part of designated hedging relationships and which are intended to mitigate exchange rate risk of monetary assets and liabilities and related forecasted transactions. The Company records these non-designated derivatives at mark-to-market with gains and losses recognized in earnings within Other expense, net.

Note 13. Related Party Transactions

Quotient Limited

As a result of the consummation of the Combinations, the Company acquired Ortho’s Letter Agreement (the “Letter Agreement”), entered into in September 2020 with Quotient Limited (“Quotient”), in which Ortho partnered with Quotient to commercialize, when approved, Quotient’s next generation product in immunohematology, a transfusion diagnostic patient immunohematology microarray intended for use with Quotient’s MosaiQ® instruments. Under the Letter Agreement, the Company was required to make certain milestone payments to Quotient as specified milestones and benchmarks were achieved. Quotient subsequently revised its business strategy to pause development and commercialization of its MosaiQ testing solutions

in immunohematology and infectious disease immunoassay screening. On January 10, 2023, Quotient filed a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas (the “Bankruptcy Proceeding”). Following the completion of the Bankruptcy Proceeding, the Company’s equity interests in Quotient were canceled for no consideration. Quotient is no longer considered a related party of the Company.

Overview

Our mission is to develop and manufacture intelligent diagnostic solutions that transform the power of diagnostics into a healthier future for everyone. Our expertise in immunoassay and molecular testing, clinical chemistry and transfusion medicine helps clinicians and patients make better informed decisions across the globe. Our global infrastructure and commercial reach support our customers across more than 130 countries and territories with quality diagnostics, a broad test portfolio and market-leading service. We operate globally with manufacturing facilities in the U.S. and U.K. and with sales centers, administrative offices and warehouses located throughout the world.

We currently sell our products directly to end users through a direct sales force and through a network of distributors, for professional use in physician offices, hospitals, clinical laboratories, reference laboratories, urgent care clinics, leading universities, retail clinics, pharmacies, wellness screening centers, other point-of-care settings, blood banks and donor centers, as well as for individual, non-professional, over-the-counter use. We reached new markets as we introduced our QuickVue® At-Home OTC COVID-19 test for at-home consumer use, school districts, health departments and many other locations.

We manage our business geographically to better align with the market dynamics of the specific geographic regions in which we operate, with our reportable segments being North America; Europe, the Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”); and China. Latin America, Japan and Asia Pacific are immaterial operating segments that are not considered reportable segments and are included in “Other.” We generate our revenue primarily in the following business units: Labs, Transfusion Medicine, Point of Care and Molecular Diagnostics.

On May 27, 2022, pursuant to the BCA, Quidel and Ortho consummated the Combinations and each of Quidel and Ortho became a wholly owned subsidiary of QuidelOrtho. For additional information about the Combinations, see Note 2 to the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements.

For the six months ended July 2, 2023, Total revenues decreased by 6% to $1,511.2 million as compared to the same period in the prior year. Currency exchange rates had a favorable impact of 100 basis points on our growth rate. Our revenues can be highly concentrated over a small number of products, including certain of our respiratory products. For the six months ended July 2, 2023 and July 3, 2022, revenues related to our respiratory products accounted for approximately 23% and 78% of our Total revenues, respectively, primarily driven by sales of our COVID-19 products. For the six months ended July 2, 2023, no customers individually accounted for more than 10% of our Total revenues. For the six months ended July 3, 2022, one customer and one distributor each represented more than 10% of our Total revenues.

COVID-19 Pandemic

The healthcare challenge and other impacts surrounding the SARS-CoV-2 virus that emerged in late 2019 and the ensuing global pandemic have presented significant business uncertainty and had a dramatic impact on businesses globally, including ours. On April 10, 2023, H.J.Res. 7 was signed into law, which terminated the national emergency in the U.S. related to the COVID-19 pandemic. As the COVID-19 pandemic transitions to an endemic state, the degree to which it will continue to impact our business operations, strategy, financial condition and results of operations depends on future developments that are uncertain and difficult to predict.

Supply Chains

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and other macroeconomic and geopolitical conditions, including inflationary pressures, general economic slowdown or a recession, rising interest rates, foreign exchange rate volatility and changes in monetary policy, we have experienced shortages and delays in receiving certain raw materials and other components for our products and have experienced logistics and distribution challenges, as well as challenges in labor availability and rising labor costs, all of which have affected our ability to fulfill customer orders, including instrument placements, on a timely basis. Supply chain, production, logistics and distribution challenges, including shortages of raw materials and components, cost inflation, shipping delays, labor availability constraints and rising labor costs, have impacted, and we expect will largely continue for some period of time to impact, our results of operations.

Some of our raw materials are available from a limited number of sources. During 2022 and through the second quarter of 2023, we encountered some increasing pressures on raw material pricing. To mitigate these supply chain challenges, we continue to (i) partner with suppliers to invest in additional capacity and raw material inventory, (ii) diversify our supply base, where possible, to minimize reliance on a single source of supply for key raw materials and components and (iii) create redundancy in our global supply chain. In addition, we routinely evaluate our supply chain for potential gaps and continue to take other steps intended to help address continuity. In our distribution operations, we have been investing in and implementing automation capabilities to help improve accuracy and timeliness of customer shipments.

We continue to monitor these developments, as well as other international developments, including the Russia-Ukraine conflict, rising tensions between China and Taiwan and localization efforts, and the impact of such factors on our business. We cannot currently predict the frequency, duration or scope of these supply, production, logistics, distribution and labor disruptions and challenges. However, we proactively work with our suppliers, manufacturers, distributors, industry partners and government agencies to address these challenges in our efforts to meet the needs of our customers. Despite our mitigation efforts, such disruptions and challenges have materially affected and could further materially affect our ability to timely manufacture and distribute our products and could unfavorably impact our results of operations depending on the nature and duration of such disruptions and challenges.

Outlook

Our financial performance and results of operations will depend on future developments and other factors that are highly uncertain, continuously evolving and unpredictable, including the occurrence, spread, severity, duration and emergence of new variants of respiratory diseases, including flu, strep, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and COVID-19, as well as the ongoing supply, production and logistics challenges.

Demand for our respiratory products, which includes our COVID-19 products, declined in the first half of 2023 compared to prior periods due to the end of the U.S. public health emergency regarding COVID-19, the transition of COVID-19 from a pandemic to an endemic environment, and the early onset of the respiratory season that pulled certain 2023 demand for our respiratory products into the fourth quarter of 2022. For the remainder of the year, we expect demand for our respiratory products to continue to fluctuate and pricing pressures on certain products to persist as a result of a number of factors, including

increased supply, emergence and spread of new variants, and the seasonal demands of the cold, flu and RSV, which are typically more prevalent during the fall and winter.

With respect to our core products, excluding respiratory products, we anticipate revenue growth for the remainder of 2023.

Because our business environment is highly competitive, our long-term growth and profitability will depend in part on our ability to retain and grow our current customers and attract new customers through developing and delivering new and improved products and services that meet our customers’ needs and expectations, including with respect to product performance, product offerings, cost, automation and other work-flow efficiency. As a result, we expect to continue to maintain our emphasis on R&D investments for longer term growth, including for our next generation platforms and assays, as well as additional assays to be launched on our current platforms. In addition, we expect to continue to evaluate strategic opportunities to expand our product lines and services, production capabilities, technologies and geographic footprint and address other business challenges and opportunities.

While we expect the revenues and financial results from our respiratory products to be affected by the seasonal demands of the cold, flu and RSV seasons, we intend to continue our focus on prudently managing our business and delivering improved financial results, while at the same time striving to introduce new products and services into the market.

Results of Operations

Revenues

The following table compares Total revenues by business unit for the three and six months ended July 2, 2023 and July 3, 2022:


	Three Months Ended						Six Months Ended
(Dollars in millions)	July 2, 2023		July 3, 2022		% Change		July 2, 2023		July 3, 2022		% Change
Labs	$	361.4	$	157.4	130	%	$	732.1	$	170.7	329	%
Transfusion Medicine	163.3		68.2		139	%	319.2		68.2		368	%
Point of Care	134.2		367.1		(63)	%	442.3		1,310.1		(66)	%
Molecular Diagnostics	6.2		20.7		(70)	%	17.6		66.7		(74)	%
Total revenues	$	665.1	$	613.4	8	%	$	1,511.2	$	1,615.7	(6)	%

For the three months ended July 2, 2023, Total revenues increased to $665.1 million from $613.4 million for the same period in the prior year. The increases in Labs and Transfusion Medicine were primarily related to incremental revenues from the Combinations. The decrease in Point of Care was driven primarily by lower demand for QuickVue SARS Antigen assays. Molecular Diagnostics sales decreased by $14.5 million, primarily driven by decreased demand for the Lyra® SARS Antigen assay. Currency exchange rate did not significantly impact the growth rate for the three months ended July 2, 2023.

For the six months ended July 2, 2023, Total revenues decreased to $1,511.2 million from $1,615.7 million for the same period in the prior year. The increases in Labs and Transfusion Medicine were primarily related to incremental revenues from the Combinations. Additionally, the increase in Labs revenue also included a $19.2 million settlement award from a third party related to one of our collaboration agreements. The Point of Care business unit contributed to revenue decline, driven by decreases of $698.1 million in sales of QuickVue SARS Antigen assays and $169.7 million in sales of Sofia® assays. Molecular Diagnostics sales decreased by $49.1 million, driven primarily by lower demand for the Lyra SARS Antigen assay. Currency exchange rate had a favorable impact of approximately 100 basis points on the growth rate for the six months ended July 2, 2023.

Cost of Sales, Excluding Amortization of Intangible Assets

Cost of sales, excluding amortization of intangible assets, increased to $368.7 million, or 55.4% of Total revenues, for the three months ended July 2, 2023, compared to $275.9 million, or 45.0% of Total revenues, for the three months ended July 3, 2022. The increase in cost of sales, excluding amortization of intangible assets, was driven primarily by new product sales in the Labs and Transfusion Medicine business units as a result of the Combinations, partially offset by lower sales of QuickVue SARS Antigen assays.

Cost of sales, excluding amortization of intangible assets, increased to $766.2 million, or 50.7% of Total revenues, for the six months ended July 2, 2023, compared to $536.2 million, or 33.2% of Total revenues, for the six months ended July 3, 2022. The increase in cost of sales, excluding amortization of intangible assets, was driven primarily by new product sales in the Labs and Transfusion Medicine business units as a result of the Combinations, partially offset by decreases in sales of the QuickVue SARS Antigen assays and Sofia assays as well as decreases in other indirect manufacturing costs.

Operating Expenses

The following table summarizes operating expenses for the three and six months ended July 2, 2023 and July 3, 2022:

Selling, marketing and administrative expenses for the three months ended July 2, 2023 increased by $60.7 million, or 51.3%, to $179.1 million from $118.4 million for the same period in the prior year, primarily due to the incremental impact of the Combinations.

Selling, marketing and administrative expenses for the six months ended July 2, 2023 increased by $178.3 million, or 87.7%, to $381.5 million from $203.2 million for the same period in the prior year, primarily driven by the incremental impact of the Combinations, partially offset by a decrease in freight expense due to lower sales and shipment volume.

Research and Development Expense

Research and development expense for the three months ended July 2, 2023 increased by $28.6 million, or 83.6%, to $62.8 million from $34.2 million for the same period in the prior year, primarily due to the incremental impact of the Combinations, as well as increased costs related to our Savanna® development.

Research and development expense for the six months ended July 2, 2023 increased by $64.5 million, or 106.4%, to $125.1 million from $60.6 million for the same period in the prior year, primarily due to the incremental impact of the Combinations, as well as increased costs related to the development of our Savanna, QuickVue OTC assays and Sofia products.

Amortization of Intangible Assets

Amortization of intangible assets was $51.4 million and $102.2 million for the three and six months ended July 2, 2023, respectively, and $21.0 million and $28.1 million for the three and six months ended July 3, 2022, respectively. The increase in amortization expense in the three and six months ended July 2, 2023 compared to the prior year periods was primarily due to the Combinations.

Interest expense, net was $73.2 million and $11.3 million for the six months ended July 2, 2023 and July 3, 2022, respectively. The increase in interest expense, net in the three and six months ended July 2, 2023 compared to the prior year

periods was primarily related to the Term Loan under the Credit Agreement entered into in connection with the Combinations. See Note 8 to the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for more information related to our Term Loan.

Loss on Extinguishment of Debt

Loss on extinguishment of debt was $24.0 million for each of the three and six months ended July 3, 2022, and was related to the satisfaction and discharge of the senior notes and termination of the former term loans and revolving credit facility of Ortho, which occurred in connection with the consummation of the Combinations.

Other Expense, Net

Other expense, net was $1.0 million and $2.5 million for the three months ended July 2, 2023 and July 3, 2022, respectively, and $3.9 million and $1.6 million for the six months ended July 2, 2023 and July 3, 2022, respectively. Other expense, net in the three and six months ended July 2, 2023 and July 3, 2022 was primarily related to net foreign currency losses.

Income Taxes

For the three months ended July 2, 2023, we recognized an income tax benefit of $11.2 million in relation to loss before income taxes of $64.4 million, resulting in an effective benefit tax rate of 17.4%. For the three months ended July 3, 2022, we recognized a provision for income taxes of $23.6 million in relation to income before income taxes of $42.9 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 55.0%. For the three months ended July 2, 2023, the effective tax rate for the period differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily due to non-U.S. earnings being taxed at rates that are different than the U.S. statutory rate, operating losses in certain subsidiaries not being benefited due to the establishment of valuation allowances, R&D credits and foreign tax credits, partially offset by foreign exchange losses and Global Intangible Low-Tax Income. For the three months ended July 3, 2022, the effective tax rate was impacted primarily by income taxes owed in U.S. states.

Segment Results

We operate under three geographically-based reportable segments: North America; EMEA; and China. Our operations in Latin America, Japan and Asia Pacific are immaterial operating segments that are not considered reportable segments and are included in “Other.” In the fourth quarter of 2022, we revised the internal allocation of certain global costs primarily between the North America segment and Corporate to better align costs that impact the Company as a whole. Prior periods have been revised to align with the current period presentation.

The key indicators that we monitor are as follows:

•Total revenues — This measure is discussed in the section entitled “Results of Operations.”

•Adjusted EBITDA — Adjusted EBITDA by reportable segment is used by our management to measure and evaluate the internal operating performance of our reportable segments. It is also the basis for calculating certain management incentive compensation programs. We believe that this measurement is useful to investors as a way to analyze the underlying trends in our core business, including at the segment level, consistently across the periods presented and to evaluate performance under management incentive compensation programs. Adjusted EBITDA consists of Net (loss) income before Interest expense, net, Provision for (benefit from) income taxes and depreciation and amortization and eliminates (i) certain non-operating income or expense items, and (ii) impacts of certain noncash, unusual or other items that are included in net (loss) income and that we do not consider indicative of our ongoing operating performance. See Note 5 to the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA by reportable segment to (Loss) income before provision for income taxes.

North America

Total revenues and Adjusted EBITDA for North America were as follows:


	Three Months Ended						Six Months Ended
(Dollars in millions)	July 2, 2023		July 3, 2022		% Change		July 2, 2023		July 3, 2022		% Change

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of July 2, 2023 and January 1, 2023, our principal sources of liquidity consisted of the following:


(Dollars in millions)	July 2, 2023		January 1, 2023
Cash and cash equivalents	$	178.6	$	292.9
Marketable securities, current	45.1		52.1
Marketable securities, non-current	24.7		21.0
Total cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities	$	248.4	$	366.0
Amount available to borrow under the Revolving Credit Facility	$	787.1	$	786.9
Working capital including cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities, current	$	518.1	$	568.1

As of July 2, 2023, we had $178.6 million in Cash and cash equivalents, a $114.3 million decrease from January 1, 2023. Our cash requirements fluctuate as a result of numerous factors, including cash generated from operations, progress in R&D, capital expansion projects and acquisition and business development activities. We believe our organizational structure allows us the necessary flexibility to move funds throughout our subsidiaries to meet our operational working capital needs.

Debt Capitalization

Our Credit Agreement consists of a $2,750.0 million Term Loan and an $800.0 million Revolving Credit Facility. As of July 2, 2023 and January 1, 2023, there were no amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility. As of July 2, 2023, letters of credit issued under the Revolving Credit Facility totaled $12.9 million, which reduced the available amount under the Revolving Credit Facility to $787.1 million.

The Term Loan is subject to quarterly amortization of the principal amount on the last business day of each of our fiscal quarters. The required quarterly payments are 1.875% of the aggregate initial principal amount of the Term Loan through the fiscal second quarter of 2024, and 1.250% thereafter. The final remaining principal installment is due on the maturity date. The Term Loan and the Revolving Credit Facility will mature on May 27, 2027. We must prepay loans outstanding under the Credit Agreement in an amount equal to the Net Cash Proceeds from (i) certain property dispositions and (ii) the receipt of certain other amounts not in the ordinary course of business, such as certain insurance proceeds and condemnation awards, in each case, if not reinvested within a specified time period as contemplated in the Credit Agreement.

During the six months ended July 2, 2023, we made $123.1 million in payments on our Term Loan, including a voluntary prepayment of $20.0 million.

The Credit Agreement contains affirmative and negative covenants that are customary for credit agreements of this nature. The negative covenants include, among other things, limitations on asset sales, mergers, indebtedness, liens, investments and transactions with affiliates. The Credit Agreement contains two financial covenants: (i) a maximum Consolidated Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) as of the last day of each fiscal quarter of (a) 4.50 to 1.00 for the Initial Measurement Period, (b) 4.00 to 1.00 for the first four fiscal quarters ending after the Initial Measurement Period and (c) 3.50 to 1.00 for each fiscal quarter thereafter; and (ii) a minimum Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of 3.00 to 1.00 as of the end of any fiscal quarter for the most recently completed four fiscal quarters. We were in compliance with the financial covenants as of July 2, 2023.

In connection with the acquisition of the BNP Business, we paid the final installment payment of $40.0 million during the three months ended July 2, 2023.

On March 31, 2023, the Company entered into an amendment to its existing receivables purchase agreement (the “RPA”), by and among Ortho-Clinical Diagnostics US FinanceCo I, LLC (“Ortho FinanceCo I”), as Seller, a wholly owned receivables financing subsidiary of the Company, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (the “Agent”), Ortho-Clinical Diagnostics, Inc., as the Master Servicer and as an Originator (“Ortho Inc.”), Quidel Corporation, as an Originator, and certain Purchasers. Under the RPA, as amended, Ortho FinanceCo I may sell receivables in amounts up to a $150.0 million limit, subject to certain conditions, including that, at any date of determination, the aggregate capital paid to Ortho FinanceCo I does not exceed a “capital coverage amount,” equal to an adjusted net receivables pool balance minus a required reserve. Ortho FinanceCo I has guaranteed the prompt payment of the sold receivables, and to secure the prompt payment and performance of such guaranteed obligations, Ortho FinanceCo I has granted a security interest to the Agent, for the benefit of the Purchasers, in all assets of Ortho FinanceCo I. Ortho Inc., in its capacity as Master Servicer under the RPA, is responsible for administering and collecting the receivables and has made customary representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities. The Company has also provided a performance guaranty for the benefit of Ortho FinanceCo I to cause the due and punctual performance by Ortho Inc. of its obligations as Master Servicer.

Liquidity Outlook

Short-term Liquidity Outlook

Our primary source of liquidity, other than our holdings of Cash and cash equivalents, has been cash flows from operations. Cash generated from operations provides us with the financial flexibility we need to meet normal operating, investing and financing needs. We anticipate that our current Cash and cash equivalents, together with cash provided by operating activities and amounts available under our Revolving Credit Facility, will be sufficient to fund our near-term capital and operating needs for at least the next 12 months.

Normal operating needs include the planned costs to operate our business, including amounts required to fund working capital, R&D and capital expenditures. Our primary short-term needs for capital, which are subject to change, include expenditures related to:

•interest on and repayments of our long-term borrowings, deferred consideration, contingent consideration and lease obligations;

•acquisitions of property, equipment and other fixed assets in support of our manufacturing facility expansions;

•the continued advancement of R&D efforts;

•our integration of the Ortho business arising from the Combinations;

•support of commercialization efforts related to our current and future products, including support of our direct sales force and field support resources; and

•potential strategic acquisitions and investments.

Due to the risks inherent in the product development process, we are unable to estimate with meaningful certainty the costs we will incur in the continued development of our product candidates for commercialization. Our R&D costs may be substantial as we move product candidates into preclinical and clinical trials and advance our existing product candidates into later stages of development.

The primary purposes of our capital expenditures are to invest in manufacturing capacity expansion, acquire certain of our instruments, acquire scientific equipment, purchase or develop IT and implement facility improvements. We plan to fund the capital expenditures with the cash on our balance sheet.

We are focused on expanding the number of instruments placed in the field and solidifying long-term contractual relationships with customers. In order to achieve this goal, in certain jurisdictions where it is permitted, we have leveraged a reagent rental model that has been recognized as more attractive to certain customers. In this model, we lease, rather than sell, instruments to our customers. Over the term of the contract, the purchase price of the instrument is embedded in the price of the assays and reagents. Going forward, we intend to increase the number of reagent rental placements in developed markets, a strategy that we believe is beneficial to our commercial goals because it lowers our customers’ upfront capital costs and therefore allows purchasing decisions to be made at the lab manager level. For these same reasons, the reagent rental model also benefits our commercial strategy in emerging markets. We believe that the shift in our sales strategy will grow our installed base, thereby

increasing sales of higher-margin assays, reagents and other consumables over the life of the customer contracts and enhancing our recurring revenue and cash flows. During the six months ended July 2, 2023, we transferred $67.3 million of instrument inventories from Inventories to Property, plant and equipment, net, further increasing our investment in property, plant and equipment.

Long-term Liquidity Outlook

Our future capital requirements and the adequacy of our available funds to service any long-term debt outstanding and to fund working capital expenditures and business development efforts will depend on many factors, including:

•our ability to successfully integrate the recently acquired Ortho business and realize cross-selling revenue synergies;

•our ability to realize revenue growth from our new technologies and create innovative products in our markets;

•outstanding debt and covenant restrictions;

•our ability to leverage our operating expenses to realize operating profits as we grow revenue;

•competing technological and market developments; and

•our entry into strategic collaborations with other companies or acquisitions of other companies or technologies to enhance or complement our product and service offerings.

In January 2023, we entered into a lease for warehouse space that has not yet commenced, with total lease payments of approximately $36 million. This lease is expected to commence during the second half of 2023 with a lease term of five years.

Seasonality

Sales of our respiratory products are subject to, and significantly affected by, the seasonal demands of the cold, flu and RSV seasons, typically more prevalent during the fall and winter. Historically, sales of our influenza products have varied from year to year based, in large part, on the severity, length and timing of the onset of the cold, flu and RSV season.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

There have been no accounting pronouncements issued or adopted during the six months ended July 2, 2023 that are expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to reserve for contractual rebates, goodwill and intangible assets and income taxes. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

A comprehensive discussion of our critical accounting estimates is included in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2023. There were no material changes to our critical accounting estimates during the six months ended July 2, 2023.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Our business and financial results are affected by fluctuations in world financial markets, including interest rates and currency exchange rates. We manage these risks through normal operating and financing activities and, when deemed appropriate, through the use of derivative financial instruments. We have policies governing our use of derivative instruments, and we do not enter into financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

Interest Rate Risk

We are subject to interest rate risk in connection with our long-term debt. Our principal interest exposure relates to outstanding amounts under our Credit Agreement. Our Credit Agreement provides for variable rate borrowings of up to $2,750.0 million under the Term Loan and $800.0 million under the Revolving Credit Facility. Assuming facilities under the Credit Agreement are fully drawn, each one-eighth percentage point increase or decrease in the applicable interest rates would correspondingly change our interest expense on our outstanding borrowings under the Credit Agreement by approximately $4.1 million per year before considering the impact of derivative instruments. For further discussion of the risks related to our Credit Agreement, see

“Risk Factors—Risks Relating to Corporate Finance—Our indebtedness could adversely affect our financial condition, limit our ability to raise additional capital to fund our operations and prevent us from fulfilling our obligations under our indebtedness” in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2023.

We selectively use derivative instruments to reduce market risk associated with changes in interest rates. The use of derivatives is intended for hedging purposes only, and we do not enter into derivative instruments for speculative purposes.

We entered into an interest rate swap agreement, commencing on May 29, 2022, which fixed a portion of the variable interest due on our variable rate debt. Under the terms of the agreement, we will pay a fixed rate of 1.58% and receive a variable rate of interest based on the USD-SOFR rate from the counterparty, which is reset every month through December 31, 2023. As of July 2, 2023, the notional amount of the interest rate swap was $500.0 million. We also entered into interest rate swap contracts, commencing on December 30, 2022, with a total notional value of $1.3 billion, which is expected to increase to $1.8 billion on December 29, 2023, to hedge future interest rate exposures on variable rate debt, including the Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan.

Our current investment policy with respect to our cash and cash equivalents focuses on maintaining acceptable levels of interest rate risk and liquidity. Although we continue to evaluate our investments, our cash equivalents as of July 2, 2023 consisted primarily of government money market funds and other high credit quality debt securities. These funds provide daily liquidity and may be subject to interest rate risk and decrease in value if market interest rates increase. We do not expect our operating results or cash flows to be affected to any significant degree by a sudden change in market interest rates.

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

We are exposed to foreign currency exchange risk by virtue of our international operations. These risks include the translation of local currency balances of foreign subsidiaries, transaction gains and losses associated with intercompany balances with foreign subsidiaries and transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the local jurisdiction. We derived approximately 45% and 38% of our Total revenues for the three and six months ended July 2, 2023, respectively, from operations outside the U.S. For translation of operations in non-U.S. Dollar currencies, the local currency of most entities is the functional currency. Foreign exchange effects from the translation of our balance sheet resulted in a comprehensive gain of $7.4 million and $38.1 million for the three and six months ended July 2, 2023, respectively. Foreign exchange effects from the translation of our balance sheet resulted in a comprehensive loss of $66.1 million and $66.0 million for the three and six months ended July 3, 2022, respectively. Adjustments resulting from the re-measurement of transactions denominated in foreign currencies other than the functional currency of our subsidiaries are expensed as incurred.

In the majority of our jurisdictions, we earn revenue and incur costs in the currency used in such jurisdiction. We incur significant costs in foreign currencies, including Brazilian Real, British Pound, Chinese Yuan/Renminbi, Euro, Indian Rupee, Japanese Yen, Mexican Peso, and the Swiss Franc. As a result, movements in exchange rates cause our revenue and expenses to fluctuate, impacting our profitability and cash flows. Future business operations and opportunities, including the continued expansion of our business outside North America, may further increase the risk that cash flows resulting from these activities may be adversely affected by changes in currency exchange rates.

Like many multi-national companies, we have exposure to the British Pound. We are negatively impacted by a lower British Pound exchange rate from translation impact when compared to the U.S. Dollar, but we also benefit from expenses denominated in British Pound, as well as some cross-border transactions at a lower exchange rate. The magnitude of the impact is dependent on our level of operations and business volumes in the U.K., forward contract hedge positions, cross currency volume and the exchange rate.

Additionally, in order to fund the purchase price for the assets and capital stock of certain non-U.S. entities, a combination of equity contributions and intercompany loans were utilized to capitalize certain non-U.S. subsidiaries. In many instances, the intercompany loans are denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the affected subsidiaries. Where intercompany loans are not a component of permanently invested capital of the affected subsidiaries, increases or decreases in the value of the subsidiaries’ functional currency against other currencies can affect our results of operations. During the three and six months ended July 2, 2023, we recorded net foreign currency exchange losses of $0.6 million and $3.0 million, respectively. During the three and six months ended July 3, 2022, we recorded net foreign currency exchange losses of $4.5 million and $2.4 million, respectively. The foreign currency gains/losses in each period primarily consist of unrealized gains/losses related to intercompany loans denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the affected subsidiaries. We have entered into and may continue to enter into derivative instruments to manage our foreign currency exposure on these intercompany loans in the future.

We have entered into foreign currency forward contracts to manage our foreign currency exposures on foreign currency denominated firm commitments and forecasted foreign currency denominated intercompany and third-party transactions. We had forward contracts outstanding with a total notional amount of $865.0 million as of July 2, 2023, with maturity dates through December 2023. Foreign currency forward contracts that qualified and were designated for hedge accounting are recorded at

their fair value as of July 2, 2023 and the pre-tax unrealized loss of $5.4 million is reported as a component of Other comprehensive income (loss), all of which is expected to be reclassified to earnings in the next 12 months. Actual gains (losses) upon settlement will be recognized in earnings, within the line item impacted, during the estimated time in which the transactions are incurred. Actual losses upon settlement recognized in earnings during the three and six months ended July 2, 2023 were $3.1 million and $2.6 million, respectively. Actual losses/gains upon settlement recognized in earnings during the three and six months ended July 3, 2022 were not material.

See Note 12 to the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information related to such forward contracts, which information is incorporated herein by reference.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures: We have performed an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e). Based on that evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of July 2, 2023 at a reasonable assurance level to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

Changes in internal control over financial reporting: There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended July 2, 2023 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
