PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
Overview
Omnicell, a leader in transforming the pharmacy care delivery model, is committed to solving the critical challenges inherent in medication management and elevating the role of clinicians within healthcare as an essential component of care delivery. Omnicell is focused on helping its customers to define and deliver a cost effective medication management strategy that is designed to equip and empower pharmacists and nurses to focus on patient care rather than administrative tasks, and to drive improved clinical, operational, and financial outcomes across all care settings. We are doing this with an industry-leading medication management infrastructure which includes robotics, smart devices, intelligent software, and expert services. This comprehensive set of solutions provides the critical foundation for customers to realize the industry vision of the Autonomous Pharmacy, a vision defined by pharmacy leaders for improving operational efficiencies and ultimately targeting zero-error medication management.
Business Strategy
The U.S. spent a total of $634 billion on prescription drugs in 2022, an increase of 9% compared to 2021, and prescription drugs impact the vast majority of patients in virtually all settings of care. We believe there are significant challenges facing the practice of pharmacy today including, but not limited to, budget constraints, increased healthcare worker turnover rates, labor shortages, drug shortages, drug diversion, manual and error-prone processes, complex compliance requirements, and limited inventory visibility. Each of these challenges may lead to poor medication management outcomes including, but not limited to, medication errors, adverse drug events, lack of patient adherence, and medication waste. We also recognize that these challenges may impact the timing of contracting for, or implementing, our products, solutions, or services. However, we believe that over time these significant challenges to the practice of pharmacy will drive demand for increased automation, visibility, insights, and improved medication management outcomes that our solutions are designed to enable. Because of this, we believe that our solutions are well-positioned to address the evolving needs of healthcare institutions and therefore present opportunities for long-term growth.
In an effort to address these challenges and deliver solutions to help drive positive medication management outcomes, we continue to make significant investments in our research and development efforts to further advance the industry vision of the Autonomous Pharmacy. Furthermore, we believe a combination of robotics, smart devices, intelligent software, and expert services is needed in every care setting where medications are managed. We are focused on delivering solutions to help our customers realize the industry vision of the Autonomous Pharmacy and drive positive medication management outcomes with outstanding customer experience through a mature channel in four market categories:
•Point of Care. As a market leader, we expect to continue expansion into this product market as customers increase the use of our dispensing systems in more areas within their hospitals and increasingly in ambulatory care settings. However, we recognize that the current macroeconomic environment, with significant labor constraints, may impact our customers’ considerations in the near term when they are determining whether to implement new workflows that may affect those same stressed labor pools. As we are largely through the replacement cycle of our previous generation of automated dispensing systems, we are seeing demand moderate. We continue to invest in next-generation point of care enhancements and solutions and believe that customers will upgrade their current installed base over time as we deliver these new solutions to market. We also believe there is an opportunity for us to expand this offering and define a new standard for dispensing systems in ambulatory settings. We believe our current solutions within the Point of Care market and new innovation and services will continue to help customers drive improved clinical and financial outcomes.
•Central Pharmacy and IV Compounding. This market represents the beginning of the medication management process in acute care settings, and we believe it is a significant automation opportunity for high volumes of manual, repetitive, and error-prone processes that are often common in pharmacies today. Manual medication dispensing processes are usually labor intensive, error-prone, and may lead to excess medication waste and expirations for our healthcare partners. Automating the central pharmacy dispensing process should enable customers to reallocate pharmacy labor, enhance dispensing accuracy and patient safety, and reduce medication waste and expirations. Likewise, the manual compounding of sterile IV preparations can be error-prone and create significant patient safety risks, and outsourcing sterile IV compounding could lead to increased medication costs and lack of access to needed medications as a result of being unable to source medications when they are required. As a result, we believe IV automation provides a significant opportunity to enhance patient safety and reduce costs. We anticipate that these technology-enabled services will become more critical as health systems continue to face labor shortages, increased financial pressure, and supply chain disruptions.
•Specialty Pharmacy and 340B Program. We believe that health systems will continue to invest in programs that are intended to improve patient outcomes and drive cost savings by utilizing specialty pharmacies and the federal 340B Drug Pricing Program (the “340B Program”). The 340B Program allows qualifying hospitals and health systems to stretch federal resources and expand patient access to healthcare by requiring manufacturers participating in Medicaid to sell outpatient drugs at discounted prices to eligible healthcare organizations and covered entities. Specialty drugs are used for treatment of complex conditions and often require intensive patient management and specialized workflows for dispensing and care coordination. Specialty medications are projected to account for nearly 60% of U.S. total spending on medications, with total spending projected to be approximately $420 billion in 2025. Specialty pharmacies serve as the connection between patients, prescribing physicians, and payers and work to streamline access and adherence to these specialty drugs. We believe a solution that is designed to help health systems start or optimize their specialty pharmacy programs and the related pharmaceutical aspects of patient care will help ensure continuity of care and should contribute to the revenue and profitability of those organizations. We believe that a fully optimized specialty pharmacy operation represents one of the largest economic opportunities for hospitals and health systems.
•Retail, Institutional, and Payer. We believe the Retail, Institutional, and Payer market represents a significant opportunity as healthcare evolves. Retail drug prescriptions represent 85% of all prescription drugs dispensed in the U.S., growing at a rate of 1.7% annually through 2022. Additionally, the COVID-19 pandemic accelerated the shift of outpatient care from hospitals and physician offices to other, more convenient settings, such as retail pharmacies and the home (including through telehealth technologies). New technologies and increased scope of practice for pharmacists appear to be spurring innovation and expansion of the provision of clinical services by retail pharmacies, which, combined with the move to value-based care, we believe will drive the adoption of our patient engagement solutions, that are intended to help providers (including pharmacists) and payers engage patients in new ways that are expected to improve outcomes, reduce the total cost of care, and lead to more profitable operations. Because of the complexity of relationships between payers and providers, as well as the large number of retail pharmacies, including a significant number of independent pharmacies, we believe a network of established relationships between payers, providers and pharmacies will continue to be important.

All significant operating decisions are based upon an analysis of Omnicell as one operating segment, which is the same as our reporting segment.
Industry Background and Market
We believe our solutions support the industry vision of the Autonomous Pharmacy, are strongly aligned with trends in the healthcare market, and are well-positioned to address the evolving needs of healthcare institutions.
The healthcare industry continues to experience a significant degree of consolidation, with healthcare providers combining to create larger healthcare delivery organizations. We believe this trend has increased the market’s need for integrated medication management solutions on a single platform to help improve clinical and financial outcomes for both inpatient and outpatient settings. Our portfolio of hardware, which we may refer to as connected devices; digital workflows; analytics; and experts, combined with innovation, is designed with this objective in mind.
In addition, healthcare providers and facilities continue to be affected by significant economic and other pressures. Annual prescription drug expenditures in the United States were approximately $634 billion in 2022, according to the IQVIA National Sales Perspective database. Based on a 2020 report by the Health Care Cost Institute, the rise in prescription drug spending accounted for 49% of the total increase in annual spending per person from 2016 to 2020. In addition, the largest growth in spending for professional services—defined as payments to physicians and other clinical care team members for services provided in physician offices and hospitals—occurred among administered drugs, which accounted for the biggest share, at 76% of the total net cumulative increase in professional services spending from 2016 to 2020. Rising costs of labor, prescription drugs, and new medical technology all contribute to increased spending. Governmental pressures surrounding healthcare reform and compliance have led to increased scrutiny of the cost and efficiency with which healthcare providers deliver their services. These factors, combined with continuing consolidation in the healthcare industry, have increased the need for the efficient delivery of healthcare in order to control costs and elevated the strategic importance of medication management and pharmacy automation across the continuum of care.
Furthermore, while complexities in medication management have increased over time along with the volume of patients and medications, many manual processes are still used, resulting in inefficient tracking and delivery of medications and supplies and increased administrative burden on many clinical staff. According to a survey conducted by the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists in 2019, approximately 75% of pharmacist activities are non-clinical in nature. In addition, many existing healthcare information systems are unable to support the modernization of healthcare delivery processes or address mandated patient safety initiatives. These factors contribute to medical errors and unnecessary process costs across the healthcare sector including in medication management.
Regulation and industry guidelines, such as those issued by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”), the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (“DEA”), The Joint Commission (an organization that accredits U.S. health care organizations and programs), the U.S. Pharmacopeial Convention, the Institute for Safe Medication Practices, and state boards of pharmacy in the areas of medication management—including storage, security, and labeling—have created an environment of increased patient safety, awareness, and regulatory control. Against this backdrop, healthcare organizations, desiring to improve quality and avoid liability, are driven to prioritize investments in capital equipment, including pharmacy automation, which is a standard of care, to improve patient safety. While the overall storage and security of medications in hospitals have improved, there has been an increased focus on controlled substance management in recent years, particularly in light of the opioid crisis in the United States. According to a research report published by the Butler Center for Research in 2015, studies in the United States have shown that 10% to 15% of healthcare professionals misuse substances during their lifetime, with significantly higher levels of opioid abuse in particular. Joint Commission surveyors are seeking more documentation from hospitals demonstrating that their medication policies and procedures are adequate to prevent illicit use of controlled substances.
Medication non-adherence is widely recognized as a common and costly problem. Poor adherence results in increased hospital readmissions, deteriorated treatment outcomes, and avoidable healthcare costs. The estimated annual cost of prescription-drug related morbidity and mortality resulting from non-optimized medication therapy, including medication non-adherence, was $528 billion in 2016, according to a study published in the Annals of Pharmacotherapy in 2018. In addition, a 2017 study published in the Journal of the American Pharmacists Association found that medication issues are responsible for 26% of hospital readmissions. With approximately 74 million Americans taking five or more medications routinely (based on statistics published by the Center for Health Care Strategies and the U.S. Census Bureau in 2019), we believe pharmacists need ways to support the arduous task of maintaining patient compliance. Medication adherence can be improved through attitudinal and behavioral changes, which pharmacists can encourage and help facilitate by providing interventional support, including adherence tools such as blister cards, reminders, prescription synchronization, and patient engagement tools. We believe our EnlivenHealth portfolio has the potential to reduce admissions and emergency department visits and improve patient health by increasing medication adherence.
The 2022 American College of Healthcare Executives survey of hospital CEOs found that workforce challenges were their top concern, with 90% of survey respondents mentioning shortages of nurses and 83% citing shortages of technicians. As of the summer of 2022 there were more than 203,000 open registered nurse positions nationwide, more than twice the number just before the COVID-19 pandemic in January 2020, according to staffing firm Aya Healthcare. In addition, the shortage of pharmacy technicians, who are critical to clinical care in inpatient, outpatient and retail settings, is also acute. A nationwide survey conducted in May 2021 by the National Community Pharmacists Association found that nearly 90% of the survey’s 278 independent pharmacy owner/manager respondents said they couldn’t find pharmacy technicians to staff their pharmacies at an ideal capacity. In addition, a survey conducted by the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists found that vacancy rates for pharmacy technician positions averaged from 20% to 30%, and one in ten health systems surveyed reported pharmacy technician shortages of 41% or more in 2021.
Healthcare workforce labor constraints have come at a time when admissions continue to fluctuate dramatically. In addition, even apart from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, patient volume is projected to rebound and exceed pre-pandemic levels. A 2021 McKinsey & Co. survey of the leaders of 100 large private-sector hospitals in the United States—which was conducted several months prior to the emergence of the COVID-19 Omicron variant—concluded that on average hospitals’ inpatient admissions have returned to 2019 levels. Furthermore, according to McKinsey, in 2024 health systems are expected to look to technology to gain end-to-end process improvement to drive value for patients and for their business, selectively employing technologies to promote efficiency and patient experience.
Omnicell’s medication management infrastructure—incorporating technologies such as robotics, smart devices, intelligent software, and expert services—is designed to automate many labor-intensive medication management tasks. We believe this will help healthcare providers optimize the use of existing pharmacy staff, which is expected to free up clinicians’ time for higher-value, patient-engaging activities, such as medication therapy management, immunizations, point-of-care testing, and disease state management.
Government Regulation
Our global operations may be affected by complex state, federal, and international laws and regulations. These laws and regulations relate to healthcare (including medical devices and pharmaceuticals), privacy, data protection and information security, compliance, import and export, trade, healthcare fraud, waste and abuse (including anti-kickback and false claims laws), environmental standards, anti-corruption, anti-bribery, labor and employment, as well as other areas of focus.
We receive, store, and process personal information and other data from our customers, employees, and service providers. Our customers also use our products or services to obtain and store personal information, including personal health information, from their patients and customers. As a result, we or our customers are subject to various laws and regulations related to privacy, data protection, and information security. In the United States, these include federal health information privacy and security laws (such as the Health Information Portability and Accountability Act of 1996), various state and federal security breach notification laws, consumer protection laws, and state laws addressing privacy and security. Internationally, various foreign jurisdictions in which we operate, including the European Union (the “EU”), have established, or are developing, their own data privacy and security legal frameworks with which we or our customers are subject to including, for example, the UK and the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (together, the “GDPR”). The GDPR imposes accountability and transparency requirements, data protection requirements, reporting obligations, and transfer restrictions.
Additionally, data and digital services regulation continues to expand, particularly with respect to the artificial intelligence (“AI”) and automated decision making, which may further impact our or our customer’s business and regulatory compliance strategies. For example, AI regulation or regulatory guidance continues to emerge in response to President Biden’s Executive Order on Safe, Secure, and Trustworthy Artificial Intelligence issued on October 30, 2023. In the EU, a number of new laws related to digital data and AI have recently entered into force or have been proposed. For example, on December 8, 2023, EU legislators reached agreement on the AI Act, which imposes regulatory requirements onto AI system providers, importers, distributors, and users of AI systems, in accordance with the level of risk involved with the AI system. The UK has not adopted formal legislation to regulate AI but has adopted guidelines in the form of a White Paper.
The manufacture and sale of most of our current medication management solutions are not directly regulated by the FDA or the DEA. However, the pharmacy, dispensing, and compounding activities of other persons (our customers) that use our current medication management solutions may be subject to regulation by those agencies and by state boards of pharmacy. With respect to our products and solutions, we manufacture and develop specifications for products classified as Class I and Class II medical devices, which are subject to FDA regulation and require compliance with the FDA Quality System Regulation as well as medical device reporting. We also offer a sterile disposable product that required FDA 510(k) review and clearance prior to marketing and distribution. Products designated as medical devices are also subject to various other regulatory requirements, including as applicable, premarket clearance or approval, establishment registration and device listing, complaint handling, notification and repair, replace, refund, mandatory recalls, unique device identifier requirements, reports of removals and corrections, cybersecurity requirements, and post-marketing surveillance.
We also provide services and solutions to independent and health system specialty pharmacies that may require us to observe U.S. Department of Health and Human Services regulations for credentialing of providers (pharmacists). These services and solutions may also be subject to DEA regulations concerning the management, storing, dispensing, and disposal of, and accounting for, controlled substances.
Similarly, certain provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (“FDCA”) govern the approval, manufacture, handling, distribution, and tracking and tracing of pharmaceuticals. The FDCA also regulates which medications may be compounded, and how certain compounded medications may be manufactured, distributed, and dispensed. Companies engaged in distributing or dispensing compounded pharmaceuticals may be subject to a number of requirements enforced by the FDA or other regulators. These requirements may include compliance with United States Pharmacopoeia (“USP”) or National Formulary standards, certificates of analysis, facility registration, and compliance with current good manufacturing practice (“cGMP”). Furthermore, our customers may also be subject to other laws, rules, or regulations that apply to dispensers and licensing and other requirements under laws governing, and regulations promulgated by, state boards of pharmacy, including those, as applicable, that apply to compounding facilities.
In the United States, even though we do not bill Medicare, Medicaid, or other government or commercial third-party payers, our relationships with pharmacies, healthcare providers, physicians, pharmaceutical manufacturers, and third-party payers can subject us or our customers to healthcare fraud and abuse regulation and enforcement by both the federal government and the states in which we conduct our business. The healthcare fraud and abuse laws and regulations that may impact our or our customers’ operations include but are not limited to:
•The federal Anti-Kickback Statute, which prohibits, among other things, knowingly and willfully soliciting, receiving, offering, or paying any remuneration (including any kickback or bribe), directly or indirectly, overtly or covertly, in
cash or in kind, to induce, or in return for, either the referral of an individual, or the purchase, lease, order, arranging for, or recommending the purchase, lease, or order of any item or service for which payment may be made, in whole or in part, under federal healthcare programs like Medicare or Medicaid. A person or entity can be found guilty of violating the statute without actual knowledge of the statute or specific intent to violate it. A conviction for violation of the federal Anti-Kickback Statute can result in criminal fines and/or imprisonment and requires mandatory exclusion from participation in federal healthcare programs. Exclusion from the federal healthcare programs may also be imposed if the government determines that an entity has committed acts that are prohibited by the federal Anti-Kickback Statute. Although there are a number of statutory exceptions and regulatory safe harbors to the federal Anti-Kickback Statute protecting certain common business arrangements and activities from prosecution or regulatory sanctions, the exceptions and safe harbors are drawn narrowly, and practices that involve remuneration to those who prescribe, purchase, or recommend pharmaceutical and biological products, may be subject to scrutiny if they do not fit squarely within an exception or safe harbor. Our or our customers’ practices may not in all cases meet all of the criteria for safe harbor protection from anti-kickback liability.
•The federal civil and criminal false claims laws, including the civil False Claims Act (“FCA”), which prohibits, among other things: (i) knowingly presenting, or causing to be presented, claims for payment of government funds that are false or fraudulent; (ii) knowingly making, or using or causing to be made or used, a false record or statement material to a false or fraudulent claim; (iii) knowingly making, using or causing to made or used a false record or statement material to an obligation to pay money to the government; or (iv) knowingly concealing or knowingly and improperly avoiding, decreasing, or concealing an obligation to pay money to the federal government. Private individuals, commonly known as “whistleblowers,” can bring FCA qui tam actions, on behalf of the government and may share in amounts paid by the entity to the government in recovery or settlement. In addition, a claim including items or services resulting from a violation of the federal Anti-Kickback Statute constitutes a false or fraudulent claim for purposes of the FCA. Moreover, entities can be held liable under the FCA even when they do not submit claims directly to government payers if they are deemed to “cause” the submission of false or fraudulent claims. FCA liability is potentially significant in the healthcare industry because the statute provides for treble damages and significant mandatory penalties per false or fraudulent claim or statement for violations. Such per-claim penalties are currently set at $13,508 to $27,018 per false claim or statement for penalties assessed after January 30, 2023, with respect to violations occurring after November 2, 2015. Criminal penalties, including imprisonment and criminal fines, are also possible for making or presenting a false, fictitious or fraudulent claim to the federal government.
•The federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (“HIPAA”), which, among other things, prohibits knowingly and willfully executing, or attempting to execute, a scheme to defraud any healthcare benefit program, including private third-party payers, and prohibits (i) knowingly and willfully falsifying, concealing, or covering up a material fact or making any materially false, fictitious, or fraudulent statement or representation and (ii) making or using any false writing or document knowing the same to contain any materially false, fictitious, or fraudulent statement or entry in connection with the delivery of or payment for healthcare benefits, items, or services. Similar to the federal Anti-Kickback Statute, a person or entity can be found guilty of violating the HIPAA fraud provisions without actual knowledge of the statute or specific intent to violate it.
•The Federal Civil Monetary Penalties Law, which authorizes the imposition of substantial civil monetary penalties against an entity that engages in activities including, among others (i) knowingly presenting, or causing to be presented, a claim for services not provided as claimed or that is otherwise false or fraudulent in any way; (ii) arranging for or contracting with an individual or entity that is excluded from participation in federal healthcare programs to provide items or services reimbursable by a federal healthcare program; (iii) violations of the federal Anti-Kickback Statute; or (iv) failing to report and return a known overpayment.
•Analogous U.S. state and local laws and regulations, such as state anti-kickback and false claims laws, which may apply to sales or marketing arrangements and claims involving healthcare items or services reimbursed by non-governmental third-party payers, including private insurers.
•Federal laws, regulations, and guidance that govern communications and marketing to Medicare enrollees and establish limits on compensation paid for lead generation activities, including the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“CMS”) Medicare Communications and Marketing Guidelines (“MCMG”).
•The 340B Program, which requires pharmaceutical manufacturers participating in Medicaid to sell covered outpatient drugs at discounted prices to specified health care organizations (called 340B covered entities), including, but not limited to: sole community hospitals, critical access hospitals, rural referral centers, and certain disproportionate share hospitals serving low-income and indigent patients. These 340B covered entities are responsible for certain statutory obligations, such as a prohibition on duplicate discounts and on diversion, and are required to have certain policies and
records regarding their compliance with the 340B Program. 340B covered entities may be audited with respect to their 340B Program compliance.
•The federal Stark Law (“Stark Law”), also known as the physician self-referral law, which prohibits a physician from referring Medicare patients to an entity (including pharmacies) for the furnishing of “designated health services,” if the physician or a member of the physician’s immediate family has a direct or indirect “financial relationship” with the entity, unless a specific exception applies. The law further prohibits the entity from billing for any services that arise out of such prohibited referrals. Certain of these provisions are applicable to the referral of Medicaid patients as well. Designated health services include outpatient prescription drug services. The prohibition applies regardless of the rationale for the financial relationship and the reason for ordering the service. Therefore, intent to commit an illegal act is not required in order for the government to prove that a physician has violated the Stark Law. Additionally, some states have enacted statutes and regulations similar to the Stark Law, but which may be applicable to the referral of patients regardless of their payer source and which may apply to different types of services. These state laws may contain statutory and regulatory exceptions that are different from those of the federal law and that may vary from state to state.
•The federal payment transparency tracking and reporting requirements known as the Physician Payments Sunshine Act, implemented as the Open Payments Program, which requires certain manufacturers of drugs, devices, biologics and medical supplies, among others, to report annually to CMS information related to payments and other transfers of value made by that entity to U.S.-licensed physicians (defined to include doctors, dentists, optometrists, podiatrists and chiropractors), physician assistants, nurse practitioners, clinical nurse specialists, anesthesiologist assistants, certified registered nurse anesthetists, certified nurse midwives, and teaching hospitals, as well as ownership and investment interests held by physicians and their immediate family members.
Furthermore, our operations are impacted by trade regulations in many countries that govern the import of raw materials and finished products, and we are also subject to laws and regulations that seek to prevent corruption and bribery in the marketplace (including the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and the United Kingdom Bribery Act) as well as laws and regulations pertaining to healthcare fraud, waste, and abuse, including, as applicable, state and federal anti-kickback and false claims laws in the United States.
Since we manufacture and sell our products outside of the United States, certain products of a local nature and variations of product lines must also meet other state and local regulatory requirements. Additional risks are inherent to conducting business outside the United States, including more robust information governance and environmental regulations in the European Union, expropriation, nationalization, and other governmental actions. Demand for many of our existing and new products is, and will continue to be, affected by the extent to which local regulatory requirements increase our risk and/or expense to do business in those countries.
Compliance with the laws and regulations applicable to our global operations is costly and requires sufficient resources to actively maintain various governance, risk, and compliance systems in several areas to enable us to keep abreast of the constantly evolving legal and regulatory landscape both in the United States and abroad. These areas include, without limitation, FDCA and FDA, Controlled Substances Act and DEA regulations, state board of pharmacy regulations, and laws and regulations regarding quality, privacy, information governance and security, and environmental, health and safety. We expect that there will continue to be U.S. federal and state laws and regulations and international laws and regulations that are adopted that could impact our operations and business. Any failure to comply with these laws and regulations could result in a range of fines, penalties, damages, individual imprisonment, exclusion from government funded healthcare programs, such as Medicare and Medicaid, additional reporting obligations and oversight if we become subject to a corporate integrity agreement or other agreement to resolve allegations of non-compliance with these laws, and/or other sanctions.
Recent Acquisitions
In addition to our own organic development, we have, from time to time, acquired businesses and technologies that expand our product lines and are strategic fits for our business, and we expect to continue to seek to acquire businesses, technologies, or products in the future. For more information, refer to Item 7, Management’s Discussion of Analysis and Financial Condition and Results of Operations, under the heading “Acquisitions.”
Sales and Distribution
We sell our products and services primarily in the United States. Approximately 88% of our revenue was generated in this market for the year ended December 31, 2023. Our sales force is organized by geographic region in the United States and Canada, with account management executives dedicated to our customers in the top 300 U.S. health systems and health system executives focused on generating new business. Our sales in the United States and Canada are primarily made direct to end-user customers with the exception of some distribution of medication adherence consumables in parts of Canada. Outside of the
United States and Canada, we have direct sales employees in the United Kingdom, France, Germany, the United Arab Emirates, Belgium, and Australia. For other geographies, we generally sell through distributors and resellers. Our foreign operations are discussed in Note 3, Revenues, and Note 7, Property and Equipment, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Our combined direct, corporate sales support, and international distribution sales teams consisted of approximately 450 staff members as of December 31, 2023. Nearly all of our direct sales team members have hospital capital equipment, services, or clinical systems experience.
The sales cycle for our automation systems, from the initial sales meeting to completion of installation, can take in excess of 12 to 24 months. This is due in part to the cost of our systems and the number of people within each healthcare facility involved in the purchasing decision and installation process. To initiate the selling process, the sales representative generally contacts the chief financial officer, chief pharmacy officer, chief information officer, chief nursing officer, director of pharmacy, director of nursing, director of information technology, director of materials management, or other decision makers, and actively engages with each group within the healthcare facility about the economic, safety, efficiency, and compliance benefits of our solutions relative to competing methods of managing medications or medical and surgical supplies.
We contract with Group Purchasing Organizations (“GPOs”), each of which functions as a purchasing agent on behalf of member hospitals and other healthcare providers. Pursuant to the terms of GPO agreements, each member contracts directly with us and can purchase our product at pre-negotiated contract terms and pricing. These GPO contracts are typically for multiple years with options to renew or extend for up to two years and some of which can be terminated by either party at any time. Our current most significant GPO contracts include Vizient, Inc., Premier Inc., and HealthTrust Purchasing Group. We also have a Federal Supply Schedule contract with the Department of Veterans Affairs (the “GSA Contract”), allowing the Department of Veterans Affairs, the Department of Defense, and other federal government customers to purchase our products. Some of our contracts with these organizations are terminable at the convenience of either party. The accounts receivable balances are with individual members of the GPOs and federal agencies that purchase under the GSA Contract, and therefore no significant concentration of credit risk exists. During our fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, sales to members of the ten largest GPOs and federal agencies that purchase under the GSA Contract accounted for approximately 64% of our total consolidated revenues.
We offer multi-year, non-cancelable lease payment terms to assist healthcare organizations in purchasing our systems by reducing their cash flow requirements in a lease structure. We sell a portion of our multi-year lease receivables to third-party leasing finance companies.
Our clinical and technical consulting team supports our sales force by working with our customers to identify potential solutions intended to help them achieve their desired outcomes. Our Professional Services team assists customers with the technology installations of our solutions, including configuring our systems to address the specific needs of each individual customer. After the solutions are implemented, our Customer Success team provides remote and onsite experts who help our customers fully adopt and optimize utilization of our solutions in an effort to achieve their desired clinical and business outcomes.
We offer telephone and web-based technical support through our U.S.-based technical support centers. Our support centers are staffed 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. We have found that a majority of our customers’ service issues can be addressed by our support engineers either by phone or with remote diagnostic tools. In addition, our customers can enable access to allow us to remotely monitor system performance of certain products. Where applicable, this suite of support tools is designed to proactively monitor certain system status and can alert service personnel to potential problems to preempt system failure.
In addition, our international team handles direct sales, installation, and service for healthcare facilities in the United Kingdom, France, and Germany, and for non-acute customers in Australia. Sales, installation, and service to healthcare facilities is handled through distribution partners in other parts of Europe, Asia, Australia, the Middle East, South Africa, and South America. Our products are available in a variety of languages including Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, Japanese, Korean, French, Swedish, Dutch, Spanish, and German.
Manufacturing and Inventory
The manufacturing process for our automation products allows us to uniquely configure hardware and software to meet a wide variety of individual customer needs. The automation product manufacturing process consists primarily of the final assembly of components and testing of the completed product. Many of the sub-assemblies and components we use are provided by third-party contract manufacturers or other suppliers. A portion of these contract manufacturers and other suppliers are based in Asia. We and our partners test these sub-assemblies and perform inspections to assure the quality and reliability of our products. While many components of our systems are standardized and available through multiple sources, certain
components or subsystems are fabricated by a sole supplier according to our specifications, schedules, and customer requirements, or are only available from limited sources. Our medication adherence product manufacturing process consists of fabrication and assembly of equipment and mechanized process manufacturing of consumables. We rely on a limited number of suppliers for the raw materials that are necessary in the production of our consumable medication packages.
Our arrangements with contract manufacturers generally set forth quality, cost, and delivery requirements, as well as manufacturing process terms, such as continuity of supply, inventory management, capacity flexibility, quality and cost management, oversight of manufacturing, and conditions for the use of our intellectual property.
Our manufacturing organization procures components and schedules production based on the backlog of customer orders. Installation of equipment and software typically occurs anywhere between three weeks to 12 months after the initial order is received. Larger or more complex implementations such as software-enabled connected devices for Central Pharmacy, including, but not limited to, our Central Pharmacy Dispensing Service and IV Compounding Service, are often installed between 12 and 24 months after the initial order is received. We utilize our backlog to manage our installation, procurement, and production activities to help improve inventory turns, reduce inventory scrap, and manage shipping costs. Shipment of consumables typically occurs between one and four weeks after an order is received.
Competition
The markets in which we operate are intensely competitive. We compete directly with a number of companies in the medication management automation solutions market, as well as the medication adherence solutions market, on the basis of many factors, including price, quality, customer outcome, return on investment, cost of operation, innovation, product features and capabilities, installation and service, reputation and brand recognition, size of installed base, range of services and solutions, distribution, and promotion. We expect continued and increased competition from current and future competitors in the markets in which we operate, and are affected by evolving and new technologies, changes in industry standards (including standards of care), and dynamic customer requirements.
Furthermore, the healthcare industry has experienced a significant degree of consolidation. This consolidation may require us to adapt how we market, sell, or distribute our products. Similarly, healthcare providers have consolidated to create larger healthcare delivery organizations. As market demands, government regulations, and societal pressures continue to cause the healthcare industry to evolve, it could result in further business consolidations and alliances among the industry participants with whom we engage and compete.
We believe our industry-leading medication management infrastructure products and services compare favorably with the offerings of our competitors, particularly with respect to the medication management outcomes that we have helped enable our customers to achieve across the continuum of care, from inpatient to outpatient, in each setting of care where medications are managed. We believe we have a strongly differentiated outcome-centric approach to medication management that combines robotics, smart devices, software, and expert services.
Intellectual Property and Proprietary Technology
We rely on a combination of patents, trademarks, copyright and trade secret laws, confidentiality procedures, contractual restrictions, and licensing arrangements to protect our intellectual property rights.
We pursue patent protection in the United States and foreign jurisdictions for technology that we believe to be proprietary and that may offer a potential competitive advantage for our products. Our issued patents expire on various dates between 2024 and 2041. We intend to seek and obtain additional United States and foreign patents on our technology.
Our product software is generally subject to copyright protection under applicable United States and foreign copyright laws. We have also obtained United States and certain foreign registrations of various trademarks, and we intend to seek and obtain additional registrations of our trademarks in the United States and foreign jurisdictions.
Trade secrets and other confidential information are also important to our business. We protect our trade secrets through a combination of contractual restrictions and confidentiality and licensing agreements.
Research and Development
Our research and development efforts generally begin with customer collaboration. The insight that we gain through this collaboration helps us to develop solutions to address the unmet needs and challenges faced by our customers. We continue to make significant investments in enhancing the value of our XT Series automated dispensing systems through both hardware and software upgrades. We are also making significant investments in helping our customers in the realization of the industry vision of the Autonomous Pharmacy, in particular, on our cloud-based platform and in the migration of our customers from an on-premise infrastructure to our cloud-based platform. We are also investing in the further development of technology-enabled
software and services including further enhancements to our Advanced Services offerings, as well as continuing to build software that is designed to enable scaling of our current service offerings. In addition, our robotic automation capabilities continue to evolve, while we work to further enhance new-to-market solutions, as well as new solutions currently in development. We have also begun work on longer-term solutions that we believe will benefit our cloud platform offerings. The results of our research and development efforts will further drive the advancement of our cloud-based offerings and accelerate the realization of the industry vision of the Autonomous Pharmacy.
Business under Government Contracts
A number of our U.S. government-owned or government-run hospital customers have signed five-year leases, with payment terms that are subject to one-year government budget funding cycles. Failure of any of our U.S. government customers to receive their annual funding could impair our ability to sell to these customers, or to collect payments on our existing unsold leases. Effective September 2021, the U.S. government mandated changes in its Federal Supply Schedule contract that resulted in our determination not to enter into future leases with U.S. government customers. Our existing leases with U.S. government customers are unaffected by this change. As such, our volume of U.S. government customer leases has declined over time and will likely cease in the future. In addition, under the terms of the Federal Supply Schedule contract, certain of our U.S. government customer contracts are terminable at the convenience of the applicable U.S. government customer. If any of our government-owned or government-run hospital customers decide to terminate their agreements early for any reason, we would not derive the expected financial benefits from any such customer. For additional information regarding these leases, see the risk factor captioned “Our U.S. government lease agreements are subject to annual budget funding cycles and mandated changes, which may affect our ability to recognize revenues and sell receivables based on such leases,” under Item 1A “Risk Factors”.
Financing Practices Relating to Working Capital
We assist healthcare facilities in financing their purchases of our systems by offering multi-year, non-cancelable lease payment terms. We typically sell the majority of the multi-year lease receivables (other than those associated with our Advanced Services, as described further below) to third-party leasing finance companies, although our ability to sell these receivables may be influenced by the perception of our customers’ ability to pay, or other restrictions, which may be influenced by factors outside of our control.
As part of our Advanced Services offering, we provide equipment and software at the inception of the contract period, which is accounted for as a multi-year sales-type lease. These agreements are generally multi-year and non-cancellable. We typically retain these lease receivables for such Advanced Services in-house and service them for the duration of the associated service term.
For additional information regarding these financing activities, refer to Note 1, Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Backlog
Backlog is the dollar amount of bookings that have not yet been recognized as revenue. Bookings for those Advanced Services contracts without a minimum commitment are not included in backlog. In addition, dependent upon counterparty or credit risk, which is evaluated at the time of contract signing, for a given multi-year subscription contract we may reduce the portion of the contractual commitment booked at a given time, and these excluded amounts are not included in backlog. A majority of our connected devices and software license products are installable and recognized as revenues within twelve months of booking. Larger or more complex implementations such as software-enabled connected devices for Central Pharmacy, including, but not limited to, our Central Pharmacy Dispensing Service and IV Compounding Service, are often installed and recognized as revenue between 12 and 24 months after booking. Service revenues from Advanced Services are recorded over the contractual term. Due to industry practice that allows customers to change order configurations with limited advance notice prior to shipment and as customer installation schedules may change, backlog as of any particular date may not necessarily indicate the timing of future revenue. However, we do believe that backlog is an indication of a customer’s willingness to install our solutions and revenue we expect to generate over time. We consider backlog that is expected to be converted to revenues in more than twelve months to be long-term backlog. We believe a majority of long-term product backlog will be convertible into revenues in 12-24 months. Long-term Advanced Services backlog typically represents multi-year subscription agreements (usually with contractual terms of 2-7 years, some of which have not yet been implemented) that will be converted to revenue over the contractual term.

Environmental, Social, and Governance (“ESG”) Initiatives
We view Omnicell as a purpose-driven company with a social mission: Our goal of fundamentally transforming the pharmacy care delivery model is designed to dramatically improve health outcomes and lower healthcare costs for everyone. Our teams are motivated by knowing that our work to improve medication management across the continuum of care has a tangible, real-world impact on healthcare workers, patients, and communities.
We recognize that we are accountable not only to our customers and stockholders, but also to the global community. In April 2023, we published our 2022 ESG Report, which highlights our approach to being responsible corporate citizens and describes and updates our contributions and work towards achieving a more sustainable future. We define corporate responsibility through four strategic pillars – Environmental, Social, Governance, and Innovation. We adhere to internationally-recognized Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development guidance for the responsible sourcing of raw materials and continually work to enhance the sustainability attributes of our products and improve the sustainability of our designs. In addition, we seek to ensure access to high-quality, equitable, and integrated care for all patients worldwide. Furthermore, we are focused on elevating our diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging initiatives at the Company, and creating a culture of inclusivity, engagement, and well-being for our employees.
There continues to be evolving and increasing expectations from regulators, customers, investors, and employees with respect to reducing and limiting greenhouse gas emissions, without a consistent framework in which to operate globally. The enhanced stakeholder focus on matters relating to ESG activities requires deliberate, conscientious efforts to effect change while the reporting frameworks are still being finalized, both in the United States and abroad. We are carefully studying ways we can contribute to realize a 1.5° Celsius future by 2030, reduce waste in our product design and manufacturing processes and develop product end-of-life solutions, as well as enhance our social and governance initiatives, taking cues from our internal and external stakeholders, internal assessments, and direction from the Corporate Governance Committee of Omnicell’s Board of Directors. As an organization, we have adopted a risk-management approach using the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) framework to assess and reduce the impact of climate change on our business strategy and operations. We continually seek to innovate and improve our business practices as we strive to build “A Better Way.”
More information on our ESG initiatives and a copy of our 2022 ESG Report are available on our corporate website, www.omnicell.com, under the “About Us―Corporate Responsibility” tab. We are not including the information contained on, or that can be accessed through, this website as part of, or incorporating it by reference into, this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Human Capital Management
As of December 31, 2023, we had approximately 3,650 employees worldwide (with approximately 3,040 located in either the United States or Canada), excluding individuals who are classified as temporary or contractors, which is a decrease of approximately 580 employees since December 31, 2022. The decrease in employee headcount reflects the impact of restructuring initiatives the Company announced in November 2022 and November 2023.
We currently conduct our employee engagement survey (the “Employee Engagement Survey”) twice annually, and starting in 2024, we will move to conducting the Employee Engagement Survey once annually. We most recently completed the Employee Engagement Survey via the Glint platform in September 2023 and achieved an overall employee satisfaction score of 68, which is below the benchmark average score of similarly-sized global companies identified by Glint that use the Glint platform. While our score is below the benchmark, we believe that through our continued investment in talent, processes and acting on employee feedback we were able to increase our employee satisfaction score by three points from the score we achieved at the beginning of 2023. We believe this intra-year increase reflects improved employee relations and that Omnicell is generally viewed by our employees as a good place to work.
Compensation and Benefits
•We embrace a strong pay-for-performance total rewards philosophy that we believe is competitive, performance-based, and cost-effective. We offer market-competitive pay and a comprehensive benefits package.
•Our quarterly bonus program is designed to incentivize our employees to focus on work that will further our strategic priorities.
•We offer reward and recognition programs that embed our guiding principles into our culture and everything we do, allowing for peer-to-peer recognition and motivating our employees to continually work to advance our promise, our purpose, and our guiding principles.
•Our quarterly performance review process is designed to enable our talent to reach their optimum levels of contribution to Omnicell’s business strategies, facilitates regular employee feedback, and supports our pay-for-performance philosophy.
Health and Wellness
•We offer a comprehensive wellness program designed to promote a healthy lifestyle, including on-site gym facilities, on-site bio-metric screening, and health coaching. In addition to making physical health a priority, we offer mental health counseling and resources, financial coaching, and Teladoc Health services (i.e., telephone health services).
Employee Development
•Our Organizational Development function plays a strategic role in helping us develop and retain talent through an array of developmental experiences for employees to enable them to reach their highest level of performance and potential at Omnicell. We strive to develop career growth opportunities while delivering consistent learning and development experiences across all roles, functions, and locations. Our engagement survey scores in employee growth opportunities and career path, both landing above industry benchmarks, as measured by the Employee Engagement Survey platform, reflect our commitment to employee development.
•We invest in our employees’ learning through robust training programs via Omnicell University and leadership development curriculums, including our Guiding Principles in Action training series, Change Leadership Enablement series, New Manager Lead Program, and coaching engagements. All employees also have access to LinkedIn Learning for their “on-demand” learning needs. In 2023 we created self-paced learning journeys with an emphasis on key capabilities needed for Omnicell’s future success.
•Our approach to talent development is designed to enable our organizational transformation by aligning how we lead across all levels. Most recently, we launched The Lead Program, prioritizing early managers and new managers in our revenue-generating organizations with the intention to scale across multiple leader levels in 2024.
•We have also launched a Change Leadership Enablement curriculum to better equip our leaders as they navigate high levels of organizational change. This includes live instructor-led workshops by level, toolkits, and self-guided resources to help leaders engage their employees and teams, practice resilience, and lead our organizations into the future.
•We also launched our THRIVE Senior Leadership Talent Review and Succession Process, which facilitates dialogue to identify top and high potential talent, align aspirations, bolster our leadership pipeline through succession planning, and support readiness via individual development plans.
•In order to further develop our leaders, we launched a consistent 360 feedback methodology for all people leaders in the organization and complemented it with development planning cohorts who complete individual development planning activities with peer coaching support.
•In 2023, we automated Talent Management activities by implementing Oracle, a cloud-based human resources management software program, which includes Talent Profiles to capture employees’ internal mobility interests and facilitates internal job searches.
Recruiting and Retention
•We are expanding the role of our talent acquisition team into the role of talent advisor. This transformation goes beyond traditional recruitment, as we integrate ourselves deeply within the business framework. By partnering closely with different departments, we gain an in-depth understanding of their unique challenges and goals. This collaboration enhances our ability to not only align our talent acquisition strategies with Omnicell’s overarching business objectives, but also to proactively address future talent needs. Leveraging digital recruiting platforms, social media engagement, and university partnerships, we’re not just expanding our employer brand but also ensuring a talent pipeline that is both diverse and attuned to the evolving dynamics of our industry. Our commitment is to deliver strategic counsel and insights that support business leaders in making informed decisions about workforce planning and development, ultimately driving organizational growth and innovation through the power of talent.
•We implemented a new applicant tracking module to enhance recruiting efforts and better leverage the existing capital system investment. This enhancement is intended to enable faster and better decisions, save time for value-added work, improve ease of job posting, and more efficiently manage the talent acquisition experience.
Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (“DEIB”)
•At Omnicell, our ongoing commitment is to foster a positive, supportive, inclusive, and diverse work environment. This involves valuing each individual for their differences and recognizing the entirety of the person beyond just their work identity.
•In 2022, we developed a long-term DEIB data strategy as an integral component of our three-year plan. In 2023, we took a significant step forward by launching an internal self-identification campaign, with broadened gender options to elevate inclusivity within our organization. By anchoring our DEIB strategy in data, we anticipate gaining insights into areas for enhancement and achieving a more precise measurement of the effectiveness of our human resources processes and diversity programs.
•Our external-facing aspirational long-term DEIB strategy includes supporting vendor/supplier diversity as well as strategies aimed at ensuring our products and services are inclusive and accessible. We also believe we have a role in advocating for health equity and fair and equal access to medication and medication management support.
•In 2023, we introduced four Employee Impact Groups (“EIGs”)—based on diverse employee characteristics—Black Inclusion B.R.A.I.N., The Proud Collective (LGBTQ+), BREATHE (Mental Health & Disability Inclusion), and Women in Technology (WIT). These groups empower our employees to advocate for marginalized communities and serve as thought leaders, contributing valuable insights to shape our DEIB vision and strategy. We believe that the EIG model generates sustained momentum and, coupled with our comprehensive DEIB strategy, reflects our unwavering commitment to employee diversity, equity, and inclusion. Our EIG Advisory Council comprises Executive Sponsors for each EIG, with program support from our people organization.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
Summary of Risk Factors
An investment in our company involves various risks. The following is a summary of these risks, but does not address all of the risks that we face. Additional discussion of the risks that we face can be found following this summary and should be carefully considered together with all of the other information appearing in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Risk Factors Related to our Business and Industry
•Economic Conditions and Demand Risks. Weak or uncertain economic conditions may adversely impact our business, as well as any reduction in demand for or adoption or installation of Omnicell’s medication management solutions, medication packaging systems, or related services.
•Strategic Risks. Our investments in new business strategies or initiatives, including our transition to selling more products and services on a subscription basis, are inherently risky and may not be successful or we may be unable to maintain our Advanced Services customers. In addition, we may be unable to realize the potential benefits of our expense containment measures or our acquired businesses, including RxInnovation Inc., operating as FDS Amplicare® (“FDS Amplicare”), ReCept Holdings, Inc., (“ReCept”), which was subsequently renamed Omnicell Specialty Pharmacy Services, Inc. (“Omnicell Specialty Pharmacy Services”), MarkeTouch Media, LLC (“MarkeTouch Media”), and Hub and Spoke Innovations, and risks related to investments in new business strategies and initiatives could disrupt ongoing business and present risks not originally contemplated.
•Market Risks. We are subject to continued and increased competition from current and future competitors in the medication management automation solutions market and the medication adherence solutions market, including price competition, industry and competitor consolidation, competitor brand recognition, and in relationships with our suppliers and current and potential customers.
•Technology Risks. We may be unable to develop new solutions or enhance existing solutions to react to changes in technology and customer requirements in a timely and cost-effective manner or we may experience errors in the provision of our Advanced Services that could expose us to liability.
•Institutional, Retail, and Specialty Pharmacy Risks. We may fail to meet the demands of, or maintain relationships with, our institutional and retail pharmacy customers and we may be unable to secure or maintain access to existing and future specialty drugs.
•Debt Risks. We have substantial debt, which could impair our financial flexibility and access to capital, and are subject to covenants in our Second A&R Credit Agreement (as defined below) that restrict our business and operations.
•Legal, Regulatory, and Healthcare Industry Risks. Government regulations, legislative changes, fraud and anti-kickback statutes, product liability claims, the outcome of legal proceedings, and other legal obligations related to healthcare, privacy, data protection, and information security, and the costs of compliance with, and potential liability associated with, our actual or perceived failure to comply with such obligations could adversely impact our business and operating results.
•Data Security Risks. A significant disruption in our information technology systems, breaches of data security, or cyber-attacks on our systems or solutions could adversely impact our business and operating results.
•International Operations Risks. Our operations in foreign countries expose us to additional risks, including distribution, management, and systems integration issues, reduced intellectual property protections, adverse changes in international laws, fluctuations in currency exchange rates, political unrest, foreign conflicts, and pandemics or other major public health crises.
•Workforce Risks. We may be unable to recruit and retain skilled and motivated personnel.
•Intellectual Property Risks. Any failure to protect our intellectual property rights could negatively affect our ability to compete.
•Materials Risks. We use raw materials and components that may be subject to price fluctuations, shortages, or interruptions of supply.
•Suppliers/Third-Party Vendors Risks. We may be unable to obtain an adequate supply of components, equipment, and raw materials on a timely basis. We depend on technologies provided by third-party vendors.
Risks Related to Ownership of Our Common Stock
•The market price of our common stock may be volatile and the anti-takeover provisions of Delaware law and in our governing documents may make a change in control of our Company more difficult, even if a change in control would be beneficial to our stockholders.
Risks Related to Our Notes
•Any conversion of our Notes (as defined below) may dilute the ownership interest of our stockholders, depress the price of our common stock or, if the conditional conversion feature of the Notes is triggered, adversely affect our business, operating results, cash flow, or financial condition. Also, our convertible note hedge transactions may decrease the value of our common stock.
General Risks
•We may be subject to adverse consequences related to tax rates and changes in tax legislation, and any failure to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting.
Risk Factors
We have identified the following risks and uncertainties that may have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, cash flow, or financial condition. Our business faces significant risks and the risks described below may not be the only risks we face. Additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently believe are not material may also significantly impair our business operations. If any of these risks occur, our business, operating results, cash flow, or financial condition could suffer and the market price of our common stock could decline.
In assessing these risks, you should also refer to other information contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, including the section entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and our Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
Risk Factors Related to our Business and Industry
Unfavorable economic and market conditions and a decreased demand in the capital equipment market could adversely affect our business, operating results, cash flow, or financial condition.
Customer demand for our products is significantly linked to the strength of the economy. From time to time, the U.S. and global economy has experienced cyclical downturns impacting economic activity, the results of which include decreased demand for goods and services, reduced government spending, rising inflation, increasing interest rates, liquidity or credit constraints, declines in corporate profitability, credit, equity, or foreign exchange market volatility, increased bankruptcies, and general economic uncertainty. If decreases in demand for capital equipment caused by weak or uncertain economic conditions and decreased corporate and government spending, any effects of fiscal budget balancing at the federal level or proposed legislative changes, or generally reduced expenditures for capital solutions occur, we will experience decreased revenues and lower revenue growth rates, and our business, operating results, cash flow, or financial condition could be materially and adversely affected. In addition, within the current macroeconomic environment, we have seen some customers defer or delay implementation of capital equipment projects, including due to customer labor shortages and increased healthcare worker turnover, along with longer timeframes both for capital equipment purchasing decisions and for entering into agreements for our products or solutions due to customer capital budget constraints or customers seeking to stagger or elongate the timeframes between the adoption of new or updated technologies, which has resulted in moderated demand, and may lead to decreased revenues and could result in our business, operating results, cash flow, or financial condition being materially and adversely affected. Furthermore, the foregoing factors may also impact the willingness or ability of our customers to pay their existing obligations or honor their contractual commitments, which could result in decreased revenue and negatively impact our business, operating results, cash flow, or financial condition.
The broader U.S. and global economy has experienced elevated inflationary pressures as well as continued supply chain disruptions, labor shortages and geopolitical instability. We are unable to predict future changes in the state of the U.S. or global economy or whether inflationary pressures will continue to intensify or subside. If the current inflationary trends continue, or fail to improve, it could adversely affect our profits, margins or operating results as a result of increasing costs.
We may not realize the benefits of our expense containment efforts.
In November 2022 and November 2023, we announced restructuring initiatives through which we expect to achieve certain efficiencies. As part of these initiatives, the Company has reduced its workforce across many of its functions and is in the process of reducing its real estate footprint. The estimates of the charges and costs that the Company expects to incur and the potential benefits that the Company expects to achieve in connection with the foregoing, and the timing thereof, are subject to a number of assumptions and actual results may differ materially. In addition, the Company may incur other charges or cash expenditures not currently contemplated due to unanticipated events that may occur as a result of or in connection with the implementation of these initiatives. There can be no assurance that these initiatives will achieve the expected benefits to our business as intended. The execution and implementation of these initiatives involve risk, including that significant amounts of management’s time and resources could be diverted from our core operations in order to complete such initiatives. In addition, these initiatives could fail to realize expected benefits or present unforeseen obstacles, lead to operating inefficiencies and negatively disrupt our corporate culture, which could lead to further employee attrition, any of which would have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, cash flows and financial condition.
We may fail to develop new solutions or enhance existing solutions to react to changes in technology and customer requirements in a timely and cost-effective manner, or our new or enhanced solutions may not achieve market acceptance.
We must develop new products and services or enhance existing products to react to evolving technologies and industry standards and regulatory requirements, and meet changing demands of our customers. This process can be time-consuming, costly, and complex, and usually requires us to accurately anticipate technological innovations and market trends. Our ability to fund product development and enhancements partially depends on our ability to generate revenues from our existing products. If we inaccurately anticipate technological innovations or market trends or fail to generate sufficient revenue to develop new products, enhance existing products to meet customer needs or technological or regulatory change, or are unable to fund investment in, or achieve expected return on investment from, future product development, our ability to generate future revenues or revenue growth may be negatively impacted, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, cash flow, or financial condition.
New product and service developments or enhancements may be delayed, have technical problems (including software defects or errors), fail to meet customer or market specifications, regulatory requirements, or industry standards, which could result in increased or unexpected expenses related to further developments or modifications. In addition, they also may not be competitive with other products using new or alternative technologies that offer comparable performance and functionality, may not be accepted in new or existing markets, or may not achieve expected return on investment. Any of the foregoing could
make our existing and future solutions obsolete and unmarketable, or result in loss of market share or a determination to exit a particular business or product line, damage our reputation or otherwise harm our business, operating results, cash flow, or financial condition.
Our ability to execute successfully on the industry vision of the Autonomous Pharmacy depends on our ability to continue to develop and introduce new products and services or product and service enhancements, and integrate new products and services with existing offerings, in furtherance of this vision in a timely manner and on a cost-effective basis. If we fail to do so, we may be unable to achieve the industry vision of the Autonomous Pharmacy or we may not realize the anticipated benefits of our investments in support of this vision, either of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, cash flow, or financial condition.
Any reduction in the demand for or adoption of our medication management solutions, medication packaging systems, or related services would reduce our revenues.
A significant portion of domestic and international healthcare facilities still use traditional approaches to medication and/or supply management in some form that do not include fully automated methods of medication management. As a result, we must continuously educate existing and prospective customers about the potential advantages of our medication management solutions and medication packaging systems, which requires significant sales efforts and can cause longer sales cycles. Despite our significant efforts and extensive time commitments targeting sales to healthcare facilities, we cannot be assured that our efforts will result in sales to these customers.
In addition, our medication management solutions and our more complex automated packaging systems typically represent a sizable initial capital expenditure and potential time and labor commitment to implement for healthcare organizations. Changes in the budgets of these organizations and the timing of spending under these budgets, as well as customer labor shortages, can have a significant effect on the demand for our medication management solutions, medication packaging systems, and related services. Customer budgets are often supported by cash flows that can be negatively affected by declining investment income and influenced by limited resources, increased operational and financing costs, macroeconomic conditions, and conflicting spending priorities among different departments. Any decrease in expenditures or change in spending priorities by healthcare facilities or increased financing costs, including as a result of the impacts of public health crises such as the COVID-19 pandemic, could decrease demand for our medication management solutions, medication packaging systems, and related services, and reduce our revenues.
Also, the continuing gradual transition to a value-based care healthcare delivery model could shift more of the burden of financial risk onto healthcare provider organizations and could decrease utilization of healthcare per patient. Value-based care could also cause a shift in sites of care from traditional venues, such as hospitals and clinics, to the home, and could impact our revenues.
Delays in installations of our medication management solutions, including our central pharmacy automation solutions, could harm our competitive position, operating results, and financial condition.
The purchase of our medication management solutions, including our central pharmacy automation solutions, is often part of a customer’s larger initiative to re-engineer its pharmacy and distribution and materials management systems. The purchase of our systems often entails larger strategic purchases by customers that generally require more complex and stringent contractual requirements, involve a significant commitment of management attention and resources by prospective customers, and require the input and approval of many decision-makers. In addition, new product announcements can cause a delay in our customers’ decisions to purchase our products or convert pending orders for our older products to those of our newer products. For these and other reasons, the sales cycle associated with sales of our systems is often lengthy and subject to a number of delays over which we have little or no control. A delay in, or loss of, sales of these systems (including as a result of the impacts of public health crises such as the COVID-19 pandemic or due to customer labor shortages, increased healthcare worker turnover, or customer budgetary constraints) could have an adverse effect upon our business, operating results and could harm our business, cash flow, or financial condition.
In addition, and in part as a result of the complexities inherent in larger transactions, the time between the purchase and installation of our systems can generally range up to 24 months. Delays in installation can occur for reasons that are often outside of our control, such as customer labor shortages or increased healthcare worker turnover, as well as customers seeking to stagger or elongate the timeframes between the adoption of new or updated technologies. We have also experienced fluctuations in our customer and transaction size mix, which makes our ability to forecast our bookings more difficult. Because we recognize revenues for our medication management solutions and our more complex medication packaging systems only upon installation at a customer’s site, any delay in installation (including as a result of the impacts of public health crises such as the COVID-19 pandemic or due to customer labor shortages or healthcare worker turnover) will also cause a delay in the recognition of the revenues for those systems.
The transition to selling more Advanced Services, which include a software as a service or solution as a service subscription, presents a number of risks.
We currently offer Advanced Services, which often contain a combination of robotics, smart devices, intelligent software, and expert services. These offerings include, but are not limited to, Central Pharmacy Dispensing Service, IV Compounding Service, and Point of Care Service. We also offer our Inventory Optimization Service, certain patient engagement, clinical and financial products and services under EnlivenHealth, Specialty Pharmacy Services, and 340B solutions, as a subscription. As we continue to execute on the industry vision of the Autonomous Pharmacy and grow subscription and cloud-based offerings, we may offer additional products and services on a subscription basis. The transition to selling more products and services on a subscription basis presents a number of risks. The shift requires an investment of technical, financial, compliance, and sales resources, and we cannot guarantee that we will recoup the costs of such investments, or that these investments will improve our long-term growth and operating results. Although we work to anticipate the rate of transition, if adoption of subscription solutions takes place faster than anticipated, the shift to subscription revenues will change the timing of revenue recognition and we may experience a temporary reduction of revenues and revenue growth rate. In addition, our cash flows may be impacted by the timing of invoicing of our subscription solutions. If any of our subscription solutions do not substantially meet customer requirements, contracts may be modified, causing a decline in revenue. Customers may elect not to renew their subscriptions upon expiration, or they may attempt to renegotiate pricing or other contractual terms at or prior to renewal to terms that are less favorable to us. In addition, since revenues are generally recognized over the term of the subscription, any decrease in customer purchases of our subscription-based products and services will not be fully reflected in our operating results until future periods, which may result in inflated revenue growth rates that do not reflect such decreases initially. Similarly, any additional subscription sales would not be fully reflected in our operating results until future periods.
If errors occur during the provision of certain of our Advanced Services, or if we fail to maintain expected service levels, we may be liable to our customers or third parties which may result in a decline in our Advanced Services offerings revenue.
Certain of our Advanced Services offerings are highly complex and may be susceptible to errors, including human or technological error. We may be required to bear the cost of correcting any errors and the cost of such corrections may be significant, which could adversely affect our business, operating results, cash flow, or financial condition. In addition, our customers, or third parties such as our customers’ patients, may assert claims that they suffered damages due to our errors. These claims could result in litigation and substantial costs, including legal defense costs. Although we believe our aggregate insurance policy limits are sufficient to cover reasonably expected claims, there can be no assurance that any liability insurance we purchase will be adequate to cover claims asserted against us. We could also be subject to adverse publicity as a result of such claims, regardless of the merits or eventual outcome, which may negatively impact our ability to attract and retain customers. Furthermore, if we cannot maintain the expected level of service or if our customers fail to achieve agreed upon milestone improvements in financial or operating metrics, payments to us from such customers may be lower than anticipated.
We may not be able to retain our Advanced Services customers.
An increasing percentage of our revenue is derived from our subscription-based Advanced Services offerings. In connection with those offerings, our customers, generally, have no obligation to renew their subscriptions. If our Advanced Services customers decline to renew their subscriptions or decide to terminate their agreements early, we would not derive the expected financial benefits from that customer, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, cash flow, or financial condition.
In addition, some of our Advanced Services agreements require us to adhere to additional data, security, network access, and other institutional procedures and requirements of our customers, and in certain cases may obligate us to agreed upon services levels. If we do not meet our obligations under any such Advanced Services agreement, we could be liable for damages. In addition, should a customer undergo a change in control or ownership, it may cause us or the customer to seek to modify or terminate an Advanced Services agreement.
If we are unable to maintain our relationships with group purchasing organizations (“GPOs”) or other similar organizations, we may have difficulty selling our products and services to customers represented by these organizations.
A number of GPOs have negotiated standard contracts for our products on behalf of their member healthcare organizations. Members of these GPOs may purchase under the terms of these contracts, which obligate us to pay the GPO a fee. We also have a Federal Supply Schedule contract with the Department of Veterans Affairs, allowing the Department of Veterans Affairs, the Department of Defense, and other federal government customers to purchase our products. These contracts enable us to sell our products and services more readily to customers represented by these organizations. Some of our contracts with these organizations are terminable at the convenience of the applicable customer. The loss of any of these relationships could impact the breadth of our customer base and could impair our ability to meet our revenue or revenue growth
rate targets or our ability to increase our revenues. The GPOs may increase the fees we pay or these organizations may not renew our contracts on similar terms, if at all, and they may choose to terminate our contracts before they expire, any of which could cause our revenues to decline.
If we are unable to meet the demands of, or maintain our relationships with, our institutional and retail pharmacy customers, our revenue from sales of medication packages, other consumables, or our Advanced Services may decline.
Approximately 7% of our revenues during the year ended December 31, 2023 were generated from the sale of consumable medication packages, most of which are produced in our St. Petersburg, Florida facility on a continuous basis and are shipped out to fulfill the demands of our institutional and retail pharmacy customers domestically and abroad. The demands placed on institutional and retail pharmacies by their customers represent real time requirements of those customers. Our customer agreements for the sale of consumable medication packages are typically short-term in nature and typically do not impose volume commitments on the customer. If we are unable to supply quality packaging to our customers in a timely manner, they may use alternative methods of distributing medications to their customers, including consumable medication packaging sold by our competitors, and our revenues will decline. Any disruption in the production capabilities of our St. Petersburg facilities, including as a result of extreme weather conditions or natural disasters, which may become more frequent as a result of climate change, will adversely affect our ability to ship our consumable medication packages globally and would reduce our revenues.
In addition, the institutional pharmacy market consists of significant national suppliers of medications to non-acute care facilities, smaller regional suppliers, and very small local suppliers. If we are unable to maintain our relationships with the major institutional pharmacies we do business with, they may purchase consumable blister card components from alternative sources, or choose to use alternatives to blister cards for medication control, and our revenues would decline.
Similarly, our EnlivenHealth brand offers a portfolio of web-based, mobile, and telephonic patient engagement, medication management, financial management, clinical, analytics, and population health solutions to pharmacies, which is designed to support improvement in health outcomes related to medication use. The success of these offerings depends on the trust our customers place in us and our reputation and ability to provide high-quality service. If we are unable to maintain the satisfaction or meet the expectations of our customers, our reputation with current and potential customers could be harmed, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, cash flow, or financial condition. In addition, if we fail to maintain our relationships with existing customers or are unable to create new relationships with other pharmacies, this could have an adverse effect on our business, operating results, cash flow, or financial condition.
Our inability to secure or maintain access to existing and future specialty drugs or pharmacy provider networks for our specialty pharmacy customers could have a material adverse effect on our business.
We provide Specialty Pharmacy Services to provider groups, federally qualified health centers, and health systems, including payer contracting and providing access to limited distribution drugs (“LDDs”). We have historically been able to obtain most of the payer and LDD products through our current network. However, if we are unable to obtain access to new LDDs or maintain access to current LDDs for our customers, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, profitability, and operating results. In addition, if we are not able to secure participation in the networks of pharmacy providers for our customers at acceptable reimbursement rates or if we lose access to current pharmacy networks, this could result in loss of customers, which could adversely affect our business, operating results, cash flow, or financial condition. We endeavor to demonstrate continued value and growth for each of our customers during the term of their respective contracts with us. However, if any of our customers elect to manage their own specialty pharmacy business, such customers could reduce or cease doing business with us upon the expiration of such customer’s contract term, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, cash flow, or financial condition.
We operate in highly competitive markets, and we may be unable to compete successfully.
The markets in which we operate are intensely competitive. We expect continued and increased competition from current and future competitors, in the medication management automation solutions market and the medication adherence solutions market, many of which have significantly greater financial, technical, marketing, and other resources than we do.
The competitive challenges we face in the markets in which we operate include, but are not limited to, the following:
•current or future competitors may offer or have the ability to offer a broader range of solutions than us, develop alternative solutions that provide a better customer outcome or lower cost of operation, develop new features or capabilities for their products, including artificial intelligence (“AI”), machine learning, and generative AI capabilities, which are part of an intensely competitive and rapidly evolving market, that could compete with our solutions, respond more quickly and efficiently to new or changing technologies, standards, or regulations, or devote greater resources to the development, promotion, and sale of their products than we do;
•competitive pressures could result in increased price competition for our products and services, fewer customer orders, and reduced gross margins;
•current and potential competitors may make strategic acquisitions or establish cooperative relationships among themselves or with third parties, including larger, more established healthcare supply companies, thereby increasing their ability to develop and offer a broader suite of products and services;
•our industry has recently experienced a significant degree of consolidation which could lead to competitors developing new business models that require us to adapt how we market, sell, or distribute our products or could also lead to competitors with greater economies of scale that have lower cost of operations allowing them to sell their products and services at a lower cost;
•certain competitors have greater brand name recognition and a more extensive installed base than we do, and such advantages could be used to increase their market share;
•certain competitors may have existing business relationships with our current and potential customers, which may cause these customers to purchase competing products and services from these competitors; and
•our competitors may secure products and services from suppliers on more favorable terms or secure exclusive arrangements with suppliers or buyers that may impede the sales of our products and services.
If we fail to compete successfully against current or future competitors, it could materially adversely affect our business, operating results, cash flow, or financial condition.
We have incurred substantial debt, which could impair our flexibility and access to capital and adversely affect our financial position.
Our debt may limit our ability to borrow additional funds or use our existing cash flow for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, or other general business purposes or may require us to use a substantial portion of our cash flow for debt service payments; limit our flexibility to plan for, or react to, changes in our business and industry; place us at a competitive disadvantage compared to our less leveraged competitors; and increase our vulnerability to the impact of adverse economic and industry conditions.
Our ability to make payments of the principal, to pay interest, or to refinance our indebtedness, including the Notes, depends on our future performance, which is subject to economic, financial, competitive, and other factors beyond our control. Our business may not continue to, and we cannot provide assurance that our business will, generate cash flow from operations in the future sufficient to fund our cash requirements, service our debt or make necessary capital expenditures. Our failure to generate sufficient cash flow to pay our debts could have a material adverse effect on our business. In addition, if we are unable to generate such cash flow, we may be required to adopt one or more alternatives, such as borrowing more money, selling assets, restructuring debt, or obtaining additional equity capital on terms that may be onerous or highly dilutive. Any of these actions still may not be sufficient to allow us to service our debt obligations, could increase the risks related to our business or our ability to service or repay our indebtedness or may otherwise have an adverse effect on our business.
Our ability to refinance our indebtedness will depend on the capital markets and our financial condition at the time of any such refinancing. We may not be able to engage in any of these activities or to do so on desirable terms, which could result in a default on our debt obligations. In addition, as more fully described below in the risk factor captioned “Covenants in our Second A&R Credit Agreement restrict our business and operations in many ways, and if we do not effectively manage our compliance with these covenants, our business, operating results, cash flow, or financial condition could be adversely affected,” our second amended and restated agreement with certain lenders, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent (the “Second A&R Credit Agreement”) includes customary restrictive covenants that impose operating and financial restrictions on us.
We are subject to laws, regulations, and other legal obligations related to privacy, data protection, and information security, and the costs of compliance with, and potential liability associated with, our actual or perceived failure to comply with such obligations could harm our business.
We receive, store, and process personal information and other data from and about customers, in addition to our employees and services providers. In addition, our customers use our solutions to obtain and store personal information, including health information. For example, our customers use our EnlivenHealth platform to guide and track patient notes, interventions, and appointments, which involves the collection of personal health information of patients. Our handling of data is subject to a variety of laws and regulations by federal, state, local, and foreign agencies, as well as contractual obligations and industry standards. Regulatory focus on data privacy and security concerns continues to increase globally, and laws and regulations concerning the collection, use, and disclosure of personal information are expanding and becoming more complex.
In the United States, these include federal health information privacy laws (such as the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (“HIPAA”), discussed below), security breach notification laws, and consumer protection laws, as well as state laws addressing privacy and data security (such as the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”), as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act of 2020 (“CPRA”)).
While HIPAA does not create a private right of action, its standards have been used as the basis for civil suits and HIPAA is enforced by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (“HHS”) Office for Civil Rights (“OCR”), which can bring actions against entities for noncompliance, including for failures to implement security measures sufficient to reduce risks to electronic protected health information or to conduct an accurate and thorough risk analysis, among other violations. HIPAA enforcement actions may lead to monetary penalties and costly and burdensome corrective action plans. We are also required to report known breaches of protected health information consistent with applicable breach reporting requirements set forth in applicable laws and regulations. Additionally, on December 10, 2020, OCR issued proposed revisions to the Privacy Rule aimed at reducing regulatory burdens that may exist in discouraging coordination of care and patient access to their health information, among other changes. While a final rule has not yet been issued, if adopted, these proposed changes may require us to update our HIPAA policies and procedures to comply with the new requirements. Additionally, pursuant to legislation passed in 2021, OCR recently issued guidance on recognized security practices for covered entities and business associates. OCR indicated that recognized security practices will not be an aggravating factor in OCR investigations, but that implementation of recognized security practices strengthen an organization’s cybersecurity and regulatory posture, as well as possibly lessening enforcement penalties in a potential regulatory enforcement action. Moreover, compliance with state laws related to health privacy may result in additional compliance costs.
We may encounter vendors that engage in information blocking practices that may inhibit our ability to access the relevant data on behalf of patients or impose new or additional costs. Specifically, the information blocking rules were implemented as part of the 21st Century Cures Act, and are primarily designed to facilitate technology interoperability and enable the free flow of healthcare information for healthcare treatment, payment or operation purposes. HHS-OIG may impose penalties for information blocking that has occurred after September 1, 2023, and ONC and HHS proposed a rule on November 1, 2023 listing certain disincentives for actors that conduct information blocking. The impact on the information blocking rules to our business is currently unclear.
The CCPA provides for civil penalties for violations, as well as a private right of action for data breaches which is expected to increase data breach litigation. Additionally, the CPRA, came into effect in January 2023, and imposes additional data protection obligations on companies doing business in California, created a new California data protection agency authorized to issue substantive regulations and could result in increased privacy and information security enforcement. Additional compliance investment and potential business process changes may be required. Laws similar to those in California have passed in states such as Virginia and Colorado, and have been proposed in other states and at the federal level that may ultimately have conflicting requirements that would further complicate compliance. Furthermore, new health information standards, whether implemented pursuant to HIPAA, Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (“HITECH”) Act, congressional action or otherwise could have a significant effect on the manner in which we handle health-related information, and the cost of complying with these standards could be significant. If we do not comply with existing or new laws and regulations related to patient health information, we could be subject to criminal or civil sanctions.
Additionally, the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) and many state attorneys general are interpreting existing federal and state consumer protection laws to impose evolving standards for the collection, use, dissemination and security of health-related and other personal information. Courts may also adopt the standards for fair information practices promulgated by the FTC, which concern consumer notice, choice, security and access. Consumer protection laws require us to publish statements that describe how we handle personal information and the choices individuals may have about the way we handle their personal information. If such information that we publish is considered untrue, we may be subject to government claims of unfair or deceptive trade practices, which could lead to significant liabilities and consequences. Furthermore, according to the FTC, violating consumers’ privacy rights or failing to take appropriate steps to keep consumers’ personal information secure may constitute unfair acts or practices in, or affecting, commerce in violation of Section 5 of the FTC Act. Additionally, the FTC recently published an advance notice of proposed rulemaking on commercial surveillance and data security, and is seeking comment on whether it should implement new trade regulation rules or other regulatory alternatives concerning the ways in which companies (1) collect, aggregate, protect, use, analyze, and retain consumer data, as well as (2) transfer, share, sell, or otherwise monetize that data in ways that are unfair or deceptive.
Additionally, data and digital services regulation continues to expand, particularly with respect to the artificial intelligence (“AI”) and automated decision making, which may further impact our business and regulatory compliance strategies. For example, AI regulation or regulatory guidance continues to emerge in response to President Biden’s Executive Order on Safe, Secure, and Trustworthy Artificial Intelligence issued on October 30, 2023.
Internationally, various jurisdictions outside of the United States in which we operate have established, or are currently developing, their own data privacy and security legal frameworks with which we or our customers must comply. In certain cases, these international laws and regulations are more restrictive than many regulations in the United States. For example, within the European Union (“EU”), the General Data Protection Regulation 2016/679 (“EU GDPR”) went into effect on May 25, 2018, and introduced strict requirements for the processing of personal information of individuals. The EU GDPR governs the collection, use, disclosure, transfer, and other processing of personal information (i.e., data which identifies an individual or from which an individual is identifiable). The UK has implemented the EU GDPR as the UK GDPR which sits alongside the UK Data Protection Act 2018 (the UK GDPR, together with the EU GDPR, the “GDPR”). The GDPR has direct effect where an entity is established in the European Economic Area (“EEA”) or the UK (as applicable) and has extraterritorial effect, including where an organization outside of the EEA or the UK processes personal information in relation to the offering of goods or services to those individuals or the monitoring of their behavior.
The GDPR imposes stringent obligations on companies that fall within its scope, including inter alia: (i) accountability and transparency requirements, requiring controllers to demonstrate and record compliance with the GDPR and to provide more detailed information to data subjects regarding processing of their personal information; (ii) obligations to comply with data protection rights of data subjects including a right: (x) of access to, erasure of, or rectification of personal data; (y) to restriction of processing or to withdraw consent to processing; and (z) to object to processing or to ask for a copy of personal data to be provided to a third party; (iii) obligations to consider data protection as any new products or services are developed and designed (including e.g., to limit the amount of personal information processed); (iv) requirements to process personal information lawfully including specific requirements for obtaining valid consent where consent is the lawful basis for processing; (v) an obligation to report personal data breaches to: (x) the data supervisory authority without undue delay (and no later than 72 hours after discovering the personal data breach, where feasible), unless the personal data breach is unlikely to result in a risk to the data subjects’ rights and freedoms; and (y) affected data subjects, where the personal data breach is likely to result in a high risk to their rights and freedoms. The EU GDPR also provides that EU Member States may introduce further laws and regulations limiting the processing of genetic, biometric, or health data, which could limit our ability to collect, use, and share EU personal information, cause our compliance costs to increase, require us to change our practices, adversely impact our business, and harm our financial condition.
In addition, the EU GDPR prohibits the international transfer of personal information from the EEA to the United States and other jurisdictions that the European Commission does not recognize as having “adequate” data protection laws unless a data transfer mechanism has been put in place or a derogation under the EU GDPR can be relied upon. In July 2020, the Court of Justice of the EU (“CJEU”) in its Schrems II judgement limited how organizations could lawfully transfer personal data from the EEA to the US by invalidating the EU-US Privacy Shield for purposes of international transfers and imposing further restrictions on the use of standard contractual clauses (“EU SCCs”), including a requirement for companies to carry out a transfer privacy impact assessment (“TIAs”). A TIA, among other things, assesses laws governing access to personal data in the recipient country and considers whether supplementary measures that provide privacy protections additional to those provided under EU SCCs will need to be implemented to ensure an “essentially equivalent” level of data protection to that afforded in the EEA.
On October 7, 2022, US President Biden introduced an Executive Order to facilitate a new Trans-Atlantic Data Privacy Framework (“DPF”) and on 10 July 2023, the European Commission adopted its Final Implementing Decision granting the U.S. adequacy (“Adequacy Decision”) for EU-US transfers of personal data for entities self-certified to the DPF. Entities relying on EU SCCs for transfers to the U.S. are also able to rely on the analysis in the Adequacy Decision as support for their TIA regarding the equivalence of U.S. national security safeguards and redress. This may have implications for our cross-border data flows and has and may in the future result in increased compliance costs.
The UK GDPR also imposes similar restrictions on transfers of personal data from the UK to jurisdictions that the UK Government does not consider adequate, including the United States. The UK Government has published its own form of the EU SCCs, known as the International Data Transfer Agreement and an International Data Transfer Addendum to the new EU SCCs. The UK Information Commissioner’s Office has also published its version of the TIA and guidance on international transfers, although entities may choose to adopt either the EU or UK style TIA. Further, on September 21, 2023, the UK Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology established a UK-U.S. data bridge (i.e., a UK adequacy decision) and adopted UK regulations to implement the UK-U.S. data bridge (“UK Adequacy Regulations”). The UK Adequacy Regulations have now been passed in the UK Parliament, and personal data may be transferred from the UK under the UK-U.S. data bridge through the UK extension to the DPF, from October 12, 2023, to organizations self-certified under the DPF.
The GDPR imposes fines for serious breaches of up to the higher of 4% of the organization’s annual worldwide turnover or €20m (under the EU GDPR) or £17.5m (under the UK GDPR). The GDPR identifies a list of points to consider when determining the level of fines for data supervisory authorities to impose (including the nature, gravity and duration of the
infringement). Data subjects also have a right to compensation, as a result of an organization’s breach of the GDPR which has affected them, for financial or non-financial losses (e.g., distress).
In the EU a number of new laws related to digital data and AI have recently entered into force, or are expected to enter into force in the foreseeable future. We are still assessing the scope of application, impact, and risk of these recent EU laws on our business, and will continue to assess this moving forward, including for example: (i) the EU’s Data Act, which was adopted on November 27, 2023 and seeks to, among other things regulate the use of, and access to, data generated through connected (or Internet-of-Things) devices and introduces a new means for public sector bodies to access, use and re-use private sector data; and (ii) the proposed European Health Data Space Regulation which is expected to be agreed in Q3 2024 and seeks to, among other things, provide individuals with more control over their electronic health data (“EHD”), enable cross-border sharing of EHD between national EU healthcare systems and facilitate the sharing of EHD for secondary research purposes. In addition to government regulation, privacy advocates and industry groups may propose new and different self-regulatory standards that may legally or contractually apply to us, and other regulatory protections may lose their applicability to our business as regulations and legal proceedings continue to evolve globally. We also expect that there will continue to be new proposed laws, regulations, and industry standards relating to privacy, data protection, and information security, including in the UK (see above), where we have business operations. We cannot predict the scope of any such future laws, regulations, and standards that may be applicable to us, or how courts, agencies, or data protection authorities might interpret current ones. It is possible that these laws and other obligations may be interpreted and applied in a manner that is inconsistent with our existing data management practices or the functionality of our solutions.
Compliance with privacy, data protection, and information security laws, regulations, and other obligations is costly, and we may encounter difficulties, delays, or significant expenses in connection with our compliance, or because of our customers’ need to comply or our customers’ interpretation of their own legal requirements. For example, as previously disclosed in connection with the cybersecurity event we experienced on May 4, 2022, we provided breach notification to fewer than 350 individuals as required by applicable law. Additionally, we have in the past been subject to certain class action lawsuits asserting, among other allegations, claims of violation of the Illinois Biometric Information Privacy Act.
In addition, any future event that results in the failure or perceived failure by us to comply with laws, regulations, policies, legal or contractual obligations, industry standards, or regulatory guidance relating to privacy or data security could result in governmental investigations and enforcement actions, litigation, fines and penalties, exposure to indemnification obligations or other liabilities, and adverse publicity, all of which could have an adverse effect on our reputation, as well as our business, financial condition, and operating results.
Significant disruptions in our information technology systems, breaches of data security, or cyber-attacks on our systems or solutions, could adversely impact our business.
We rely on information technology (“IT”) systems to keep financial records and corporate records, communicate with staff and external parties, and operate other critical functions, including sales and manufacturing processes. As our business needs change, we may need to expand or update our IT systems. We also utilize third-party cloud services in connection with our operations, which also may need to be expanded or updated as our business needs change. Our IT systems and third-party cloud services are potentially vulnerable to disruption due to breakdown, malicious intrusion and computer viruses, public health crises such as the COVID-19 pandemic, other catastrophic events or environmental impact, as well as due to system upgrades and/or new system implementations. Our systems may also experience vulnerabilities from third-party or open source software code that may be incorporated into our own or our vendors’ systems. Any prolonged system disruption in our IT systems or third-party services could negatively impact the coordination of our sales, planning, and manufacturing activities, which could harm our business. In addition, in order to maximize our information technology efficiency, we have physically consolidated our primary corporate data and computer operations. This concentration, however, exposes us to a greater risk of disruption to our internal IT systems. Although we maintain offsite back-ups of our data, a disruption of operations at our facilities could materially disrupt our business if we are not capable of restoring function within an acceptable time frame.
Our IT systems and third-party cloud services are potentially vulnerable to cyber-attacks, including ransomware, or other data security incidents, by employees or others, which may expose sensitive data to unauthorized persons. In addition, we have a large number of employees working remotely, which number may continue to grow, and such arrangements may involve increased use of office equipment off premises, which may make our systems more susceptible to security breaches or breach attempts. As previously disclosed, on May 4, 2022, we determined that certain of our information technology systems were affected by ransomware impacting certain internal systems. Upon detecting the security event, we took immediate steps designed to contain the incident and implement its business continuity plans to restore and support continued operations. We contained the incident and restored substantially all of its critical information technology systems. We do not believe the security event will have a material adverse effect on its business, operating results, cash flow or financial condition.
We may also be subject to various cybersecurity laws in the EU and the UK, including the UK Network and Information Systems Regulation 2018 (“NIS Regulations”), and the EU Network and Information Systems Security 1 Directive (“NISD1”) as implemented into EU Member State law (and as updated by the EU Network and Information Systems Security 2 Directive (“NISD2”)) which apply to certain operators of “essential services” and digital service providers, such as cloud providers, and medical device manufacturers. In addition, the EU Critical Entities Resilience Directive entered into force on January 17, 2023 which applies to, among other things, “essential services” including manufacturers of medical devices, imposes stringent cybersecurity and resilience requirements in particular in relation to incidents significantly impacting the continuation of the critical infrastructure service offering in the EU.
Future data security incidents could lead to the loss of trade secrets or other intellectual property, or to the public exposure of sensitive and confidential information of our employees, customers, suppliers, and others, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, cash flow, or financial condition. Moreover, the current and/or a future security breach or privacy violation that leads to disclosure or modification of, or prevents access to, patient information, including personally identifiable information or protected health information, could harm our reputation, result in litigation, compel us to comply with federal and/or state breach notification laws, subject us to mandatory corrective action, require us to verify the correctness of database contents, and otherwise subject us to liability under laws and regulations that protect personal information, resulting in increased costs or loss of revenues. For additional information, see the risk factor captioned “We are subject to laws, regulations, and other legal obligations related to privacy, data protection, and information security, and the costs of compliance with, and potential liability associated with, our actual or perceived failure to comply with such obligations could harm our business” above for additional information.
We sell certain solutions that receive, store, and process our customers’ data. For example, our Inventory Optimization Service solution combines a cloud-based predictive intelligence platform with expert services designed to monitor pharmacy operations and recommend opportunities to help improve efficiency, regulatory compliance, and patient outcomes. As another example, our EnlivenHealth patient engagement platform is a private cloud-based solution that supports improving patient adherence goals through a single web-based platform that hosts functionality to guide and track patient notes, interventions, and appointments. These solutions require that we maintain an information technology infrastructure that is robust and reliable within competitive and regulatory constraints that continue to evolve. Operational malfunctions, including loss of customer data or power or telecommunications infrastructure outages, or an effective attack on our solutions could disrupt the proper functioning of our solutions, allow unauthorized access to sensitive and confidential information of our customers (including protected health information), and disrupt our customers’ operations, which could result in reduced quality of services and contract liability or claims by customers and other third parties. In addition to the risks and impacts noted above, any of these events could damage our reputation or cause our solutions to be perceived as having security vulnerabilities and reduce demand, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, cash flow, or financial condition. These risks are likely to increase as we continue to grow our cloud-based offerings, including in support of the industry vision of the Autonomous Pharmacy, and as we receive, store, and process more of our customers’ data.
While we have implemented a number of security measures designed to protect our systems and data, including firewalls, antivirus and malware detection tools, patches, log monitors, routine back-ups, system audits, routine password modifications, and disaster recovery procedures, and have designed certain security features into our solutions, we and our third party service providers regularly defend against and respond to data security incidents and such measures may not be adequate or implemented properly to prevent or fully address the adverse effect of such events. In some cases, we may be unaware of an incident or its magnitude and effects as breaches and other inappropriate access can be difficult to detect, and any delay in identifying them may lead to increased harm. In addition, while we possess insurance that currently includes coverage for cyber-attacks, we have seen a trend where the amount of coverage being offered by insurance providers for such cyber-attacks is decreasing while the cost of obtaining such coverage is increasing. If this trend continues, the insurance coverage we possess may not be adequate or the cost to obtain such coverage may become prohibitive.
We use third-party cloud providers in connection with certain of our cloud-based offerings or third-party providers to host our own data, in which case we rely on the processes, controls, and security such third parties have in place to protect the infrastructure. We also may acquire companies, products, services, and technologies and inherit such risks when we integrate these acquisitions within Omnicell.
Any failure to prevent such security breaches or privacy violations, or implement satisfactory remedial measures, could require us to expend significant resources to investigate security breaches and notify affected individuals, remediate any damage, disrupt our operations or the operations of our customers, damage our reputation or cause us incur costs to manage public relations issues, damage our relationships with our customers, or expose us to a risk of financial loss, litigation, regulatory penalties, contractual indemnification obligations, or other liability.
We may fail to realize the potential benefits of acquired businesses, which could negatively affect our business, operating results, cash flow, or financial condition.
We have in the past acquired businesses, and expect to continue to seek to acquire businesses, technologies, or products in the future. For example, we acquired FDS Amplicare in September 2021, Omnicell Specialty Pharmacy Services (formerly, ReCept) and MarkeTouch Media, each in December 2021, respectively, and Hub and Spoke Innovations in January 2022. We cannot provide assurance that any acquisition or future transaction we complete will result in long-term benefits to us or our stockholders, or that we will be able to effectively integrate or manage the acquired businesses, including FDS Amplicare, Omnicell Specialty Pharmacy Services, MarkeTouch Media, or Hub and Spoke Innovations.
These transactions may involve significant challenges, uncertainties, and risks, including:
•difficulties in combining previously separate businesses into a single unit and the complexity of managing a more dispersed organization as sites are acquired;
•difficulties in right-sizing organizations and gaining synergies across acquired operations;
•complying with regulatory requirements, such as those of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”), the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (“DEA”), or state boards of pharmacy, that we were not previously subject to;
•failure to understand and compete effectively in markets in which we have limited previous experience;
•substantial costs and diversion of management’s attention when evaluating and negotiating such transactions and then integrating an acquired business, including any unforeseen delays and expenditures that may result;
•incurring additional debt in connection with the financing of an acquisition;
•discovery, after completion of the acquisition, of liabilities assumed or internal control, regulatory or compliance issues in acquisitions that are broader in scope and magnitude or are more difficult to manage than originally assumed or identified;
•difficulties assimilating and retaining key personnel of an acquired business;
•failure to achieve anticipated benefits such as revenue enhancements and operational and cost efficiencies;
•difficulties in integrating newly acquired products and solutions in our offerings, or inability or failure to provide high quality service, expand bookings and sales, or effectively coordinate sales and marketing efforts after the acquisition;
•inability to maintain business relationships with customers and suppliers of newly acquired companies due to post-acquisition disruption;
•inability or failure to successfully integrate financial reporting and information technology systems; and
•other additional risks relating to legal, regulatory or tax matters.
If we are not able to successfully integrate or manage the acquired businesses and their operations, or if there are delays in combining the businesses, the anticipated benefits of the acquisition may not be realized fully or at all or may take longer to realize than expected and our business, operating results, cash flow, or financial condition may be negatively impacted.
If goodwill or other intangible assets that we recorded in connection with our prior acquisitions become impaired, we could be required to take significant charges against earnings.
In connection with the accounting for prior acquisitions, we recorded a significant amount of goodwill and other intangible assets. Under GAAP, we must assess, at least annually and potentially more frequently, whether the value of goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets has been impaired. Intangible assets subject to amortization will be assessed for impairment in the event of an impairment indicator. As of December 31, 2023, we had recorded approximately $946.0 million net of accumulated amortization, in goodwill and intangible assets, in connection with past acquisitions. Any future reduction or impairment of the value of goodwill or other intangible assets will result in a charge against earnings, which could materially adversely affect our operating results and shareholders’ equity in future periods.
The healthcare industry is subject to legislative and regulatory changes, as well as financial constraints and consolidation, which could adversely affect the demand for our products and services.
The healthcare industry has faced, and will likely continue to face, significant financial constraints. U.S. government legislation and program rulemaking may cause customers to postpone purchases of our products due to reductions in federal healthcare program reimbursement rates and/or needed changes to their operations in order to meet the requirements of legislation or in anticipation of future rulemaking. For example, the Budget Control Act of 2011, among other things, resulted in reductions in payments to Medicare providers of 2% per fiscal year, which went into effect on April 1, 2013 and, following a temporary suspension during the COVID-19 pandemic that expired on July 1, 2022, will remain in effect through the first six months of the fiscal year 2023 sequestration order unless additional Congressional action is taken. Additionally, the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, among other things, reduced Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (“CMS”) payments to several types of providers, including hospitals, and increased the statute of limitations period for the government to recover Medicare overpayments to providers from three to five years. Our automation solutions often involve a significant financial commitment from our customers and, as a result, our ability to grow our business is largely dependent on our customers’ capital and operating budgets. To the extent current or proposed legislation and program rules promote spending on other initiatives or healthcare providers’ spending declines or increases more slowly than we anticipate, demand for our products and services could decline.
In addition, certain healthcare legislation and regulations may be challenged from time to time, in an effort to modify or repeal that legislation or those regulations. For example, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 (collectively, the “ACA”), which was passed in March 2010 and substantially changed the way healthcare is financed by both governmental and private insurers, has been subject to numerous judicial, legislative, and regulatory efforts to replace it or to alter its interpretation or implementation. On June 17, 2021, the U.S. Supreme Court dismissed the most recent judicial challenge to the ACA brought by several states without specifically ruling on the constitutionality of the law. It is unclear how this decision, and other efforts to challenge, repeal, replace, or otherwise modify, or alter the implementation or interpretation of the ACA will affect our business, operating results, cash flow, or financial condition.
We cannot predict the success of our business with respect to any such challenges or the effect that subsequent changes or new resulting legislation or regulations would have on our business or the healthcare industry in general. Furthermore, many existing healthcare laws and regulations, when enacted, did not anticipate the services we may provide. Any future actions or developments could adversely impact the healthcare industry, including with respect to the cost of prescription drugs, regulation of pharmacy services, the administration of the federal 340B Program, changes to pharmacy reimbursement rates, or could challenge or change the way we do business, which could have an adverse impact on our business.
Healthcare providers have consolidated to create larger healthcare delivery organizations in order to achieve economies of scale and/or greater market power. If this consolidation continues, it would increase the size of certain target customers, which could increase the cost, effort, and difficulty in selling our products to such customers, or could cause our existing or potential customers to begin utilizing our competitors’ products if such customers are acquired by healthcare providers that prefer our competitors’ products to ours. In addition, the resulting organizations could have greater bargaining power, which may lead to price erosion. This consolidation could also result in new entrants in the markets in which we operate, which presents additional risk and could result in adverse impacts on our business, see “We operate in highly competitive markets, and we may be unable to compete successfully” above for additional information.
Government regulation of the healthcare industry could reduce demand for our products or services, or substantially increase the cost to produce our products or deliver our services.
The manufacture and sale of most of our current medication management solutions are not directly regulated by the FDA or the DEA, although such products and services are used by other persons (our customers) whose pharmacy, dispensing, and compounding activities may be subject to regulation by those agencies and by state boards of pharmacy. However, we manufacture and develop specifications for products classified as Class I and Class II medical devices, which are subject to FDA regulation and require compliance with the FDA Quality System Regulation as well as medical device reporting, including a sterile disposable product that required FDA 510(k) review and clearance prior to marketing and distribution. Medical devices are also subject to various other regulatory requirements, including as applicable, premarket clearance or approval, establishment registration and device listing, complaint handling, notification and repair, replace, refund, mandatory recalls, unique device identifier (“UDI”) requirements, reports of removals and corrections, cybersecurity requirements and post-marketing surveillance. Additional products and services may require us to observe HHS regulations for credentialing of providers (pharmacists) or be subject to DEA regulations concerning the management, storing, dispensing, and disposal of, and accounting for, controlled substances, and may be regulated in the future by the FDA, DEA, or other federal agencies due to future legislative and regulatory initiatives or reforms. In addition, certain provisions of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act (“FDCA”) related to the handling, distribution and compounding of pharmaceuticals, govern all parts of the drug
distribution chain, which our customers may be required to comply with and which may influence customer demand for our products. Direct regulation of our business and products by the FDA, DEA, CMS, or other federal agencies could substantially increase the cost to produce our products or deliver our services and increase the time required to bring those products and services to market, reduce the demand for our products and services, and reduce our revenues. In addition, our customers include healthcare providers and facilities subject to regulation by the DEA, pharmacies subject to regulation by the FDA and individual state boards of pharmacy and hospitals subject to accreditation by accrediting organizations approved by the CMS, such as the Joint Commission, and the rules, regulations, and standards of such regulators and accrediting organizations. Any failure of our customers to comply with the applicable rules, regulations, and standards could reduce demand for our products or services and harm our business, competitive position, operating results, cash flow, or financial condition. Given our customers, products, services, and industry relationships, we may also be subject to rules, regulations, standards, and civil or criminal enforcement imposed by HHS, the U.S. Department of Justice, the HHS Office of Inspector General, CMS, the Health Resources and Services Administration, and state attorneys general, including with respect to state and federal False Claims Act statutes, federal Anti-Kickback Statute, and federal Physician Payments Sunshine Act, among others. As such, from time to time, we may be subject to various state or federal governmental inspections, reviews, audits and investigations to verify our compliance with governmental rules and regulations to the extent governing our products and services. The costs to respond to or defend any such reviews, audits and investigations can be significant and are likely to increase in the current enforcement environment. These audits and investigations may result in other adverse consequences, particularly if the underlying conduct is found to be pervasive or systemic. These consequences may include, but are not limited to: (1) refunding or retroactively adjusting amounts that have been paid under the relevant government program or from other payers; (2) state or federal agencies imposing significant fines, penalties and other sanctions on us; (3) losing our right to participate in certain governmental programs; and (4) damaging our reputation in various markets, which could adversely affect our ability to attract customers and employees. If these were to occur, the consequences could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, cash flow, or financial condition.
While we have implemented a Privacy and Use of Information Policy and adhere to established privacy principles, use of customer information guidelines, and related federal and state statutes, we cannot assure you that we will be in compliance with all international, federal and state healthcare information privacy and security laws that we are directly or indirectly subject to, including, without limitation, HIPAA. Under HIPAA, we are considered a “business associate” in relation to many of our customers that are covered entities, and, as such, most of these customers have required that we enter into written agreements governing the way we handle and safeguard certain patient health information we may encounter in providing our products and services, and may impose liability on us for failure to meet our contractual obligations. Furthermore, pursuant to changes in HIPAA under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, we are covered under HIPAA similar to other covered entities and, in some cases, subject to the same civil and criminal penalties as a covered entity. A number of states and countries have also enacted privacy and security statutes and regulations that, in some cases, are more stringent than HIPAA and may also apply directly to us. If our past or present operations are found to violate any of these laws, we may be subject to fines, penalties, and other sanctions.
In addition, we cannot predict the potential impact of future privacy standards and other federal, state, and international privacy and security laws that may be enacted at any time on our customers or on Omnicell. These laws could restrict the ability of Omnicell and/or our customers to obtain, use, or disseminate patient information, which could reduce the demand for our products or services or force us to redesign our products or services in order to meet regulatory requirements. For more information, you should also refer to the risk factor above captioned “We are subject to laws, regulations, and other legal obligations related to privacy, data protection, and information security, and the costs of compliance with, and potential liability associated with, our actual or perceived failure to comply with such obligations could harm our business”.
Changes to the 340B Program could negatively impact our 340B Program-related services.
Any changes to the 340B Drug Pricing Program, such as changes to the scope of, or requirements for participation in, the 340B Program, could negatively impact our 340B Program-related services. Current litigation brought by multiple manufacturers is challenging the Health Resources and Services Administration’s requirement to offer the 340B ceiling price on drugs dispensed at contract pharmacies. The decisions that have been issued to date have been narrowly tailored and appeals have been filed in some of the cases. While the litigation is ongoing, a number of manufacturers have restricted access to the 340B ceiling price for drugs dispensed at contract pharmacies. It is not yet clear how the litigation will resolve. If 340B ceiling prices are not required to be offered for drugs dispensed at contract pharmacies or the requirements for participation by 340B covered entities make participation in the program less beneficial, our 340B Program-related offerings may become less useful to 340B covered entities, and our 340B Program-related businesses could decline, which could materially adversely affect our business, operating results, cash flow, or financial condition. Furthermore, uncertainty around the 340B Program could lead to lower levels of participation by 340B covered entities, which could reduce demand for our 340B Program-related businesses and could adversely affect our business. In addition, Congress has considered legislative changes to the 340B Program. Any legislative changes to the 340B Program could also affect our 340B Program-related services.
We must comply with anti-kickback, fraud and abuse, false claims, transparency, and other healthcare laws and regulations.
Our current and future operations are subject to various federal and state healthcare laws and regulations that affect our sales, marketing, and other promotional activities by limiting the kinds of financial arrangements we can enter into with respect to our products and services and/or requiring disclosure of certain of our financial arrangements to government agencies. They also impose additional administrative and compliance burdens on us. These laws include, but are not limited to, the healthcare fraud and abuse laws described in the section titled “Business - Government Regulation” above.
The scope and enforcement of each of these laws is uncertain and subject to rapid change in the current environment of healthcare reform, and it is possible that some of our business activities could be subject to challenge under one or more of such laws or that such laws could be applied to our business in ways we did not anticipate. Ensuring that our business arrangements with third parties comply with applicable healthcare laws, as well as responding to investigations by government authorities (which have increased in recent years as the healthcare industry has come under greater scrutiny) can be time and resource consuming and can divert management’s attention from the business.
If our operations are found to be in violation of any of the laws described above or any other government regulations that apply to us, we may be subject to significant financial penalties and possible exclusion from participation in federal and state funded healthcare programs, and the curtailment or restricting of our operations, as well as additional reporting obligations and oversight if we become subject to a corporate integrity agreement or other agreement to resolve allegations of non-compliance with these laws. This could harm our ability to operate our business and our financial results.
Our international operations may subject us to additional risks that can adversely affect our business, operating results, cash flow, or financial condition.
We currently have operations outside of the United States, including sales efforts centered in Canada, Europe, the Middle East, and the Asia-Pacific regions, and supply chain efforts in Asia. We intend to continue to expand our international operations, particularly in certain markets that we view as strategic, including the Middle East. Our international operations subject us to a variety of risks, including:
•our reliance on distributors for the sale of our medication management solutions outside the United States, Canada, the UK, France, and Germany;
•the difficulty of managing an organization operating in various countries;
•reduced protection for intellectual property rights in certain jurisdictions;
•the imposition of, or adverse changes in, international laws and regulations, including privacy and security, labor, import, export, trade, environmental standards, product compliance, tax, anti-bribery, and employment laws;
•fluctuations in currency exchange rates and difficulties in repatriating funds from certain countries;
•additional investment, coordination, and lead-time necessary to successfully interface our automation solutions with the existing information systems of our customers or potential customers outside of the United States;
•political unrest, terrorism, and other potential hostilities (such as the ongoing conflicts between Russia and Ukraine or Israel and Hamas), including in areas in which we have facilities or operations; and
•epidemics, pandemics, or other major public health crises, such as the COVID-19 pandemic.
If we are unable to anticipate and address these risks properly our business, operating results, cash flow, or financial condition could be harmed.
Furthermore, changes in export or import regulation and other trade barriers and uncertainties may have an adverse effect on our business. For example, in recent years, the U.S. government advocated greater restrictions on trade generally and tariff increases on certain goods imported into the United States, particularly from China. We cannot predict what actions may ultimately be taken with respect to tariffs or trade relations between the United States and other countries (including China), what products may be subject to such actions, or what actions may be taken by the other countries in retaliation. The adoption and expansion of trade restrictions, the occurrence of a trade war, other governmental action related to tariffs or trade agreements or policies, or the related uncertainties, has the potential to adversely impact our ability to do business outside of the United States as well as our supply chain and costs, which could, in turn, adversely affect our business, operating results, cash flow, or financial condition.
Covenants in our Second A&R Credit Agreement restrict our business and operations in many ways, and if we do not effectively manage our compliance with these covenants, our financial conditions and operating results could be adversely affected.
The Second A&R Credit Agreement contains various customary covenants that require us to provide financial and other information reporting as well as notice upon certain events and limit or restrict our ability and/or our subsidiaries’ ability to, among other things, incur or assume liens or additional debt or provide guarantees in respect of obligations of other persons; issue redeemable preferred stock; pay dividends or distributions or redeem or repurchase capital stock; prepay, redeem, or repurchase certain debt; make loans, investments, acquisitions, and capital expenditures; enter into agreements that restrict distributions from our subsidiaries; sell assets and capital stock of our subsidiaries; enter into certain transactions with affiliates; and consolidate or merge with or into, or sell substantially all of our assets to, another person.
The Second A&R Credit Agreement also includes financial covenants requiring us (i) not to exceed a maximum consolidated secured net leverage ratio of 3.00:1 and (ii) to maintain a minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio of 3.00:1. Our ability to comply with these financial covenants may be affected by events beyond our control. Our failure to comply with any of the covenants under the Second A&R Credit Agreement could result in a default under the terms of the Second A&R Credit Agreement, which could permit the administrative agent or the lenders to declare all or part of any outstanding borrowings to be immediately due and payable or foreclose on our assets, or to refuse to permit additional borrowings under the revolving credit facility, which could restrict our operations, particularly our ability to respond to changes in our business or to take specified actions to take advantage of certain business opportunities that may be presented to us. In addition, if we are unable to repay those amounts, the administrative agent and the lenders under the Second A&R Credit Agreement could proceed against the collateral granted to them to secure that debt and foreclose on our assets, which would seriously harm our business.
Climate change, legal, regulatory or market measures to address climate change and related emphasis on environmental, social and corporate governance (“ESG”) matters by various stakeholders may negatively affect our business and operating results.
Climate changes, such as extreme weather conditions and natural disasters or the occurrence of extreme weather conditions and natural disasters with increased frequency and severity, resulting from increased concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, could present risks to our operations by decreasing the availability or increasing cost of materials needed for manufacturing, or increasing insurance and other operating costs. Natural disasters and extreme weather conditions, such as hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes, wildfires, or flooding, may also pose physical risks to our facilities and disrupt the operation of our supply chain.
In addition, increased awareness and concern over climate change may result in new or additional regional and/or federal legal or regulatory requirements designed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and/or mitigate the effects of climate change on the environment. Currently, there continues to be a lack of consistent climate legislation, which creates economic and regulatory uncertainty. If such laws or regulations are more stringent than current legal or regulatory obligations, we may experience disruption in, or an increase in the costs associated with sourcing, manufacturing and distribution of our products, which may adversely affect our business, operating results, cash flow or financial condition.
Furthermore, regulators’, customers’, investors’, and employees’ expectations for ESG matters have been rapidly evolving and increasing. The enhanced stakeholder focus on these issues requires continuous monitoring of various and evolving standards and the associated reporting requirements. A failure to adequately meet stakeholder expectations, combined with inconsistent standards by which to measure ESG performance, may result in the loss of business, diluted market valuation, an inability to attract customers or an inability to attract and retain top talent.
Catastrophic events may disrupt our business and harm our operating results.
We rely on our network infrastructure, data centers, enterprise applications, and technology systems for the development, marketing, support, and sales of our products, and for the internal operation of our business. These systems are susceptible to disruption or failure in the event of an extreme weather condition, including earthquake, fire, flood, ice and snowstorms or other natural disasters, as well as cyber-attack, terrorist attack, telecommunications failure, health emergencies, including epidemics or pandemics (such as the COVID-19 pandemic), or other catastrophic event. Many of these systems are housed or supported in or around our corporate facility located in Northern California, near major earthquake faults and which may be vulnerable to climate change effects, and where a significant portion of our research and development activities and other critical business operations take place. Other critical systems are housed in communities that have been subject to significant tropical storms such St. Petersburg, Florida, which is the location of our manufacturing facilities for our consumable medication packages. In the future, tropical storms may be intensified or occur with increasing frequency as a result of climate change. Disruptions to, or the failure of any of these systems, and the resulting loss of critical data, which is not quickly
recoverable by the effective execution of disaster recovery plans designed to reduce such disruption, could cause delays in our product development, prevent us from fulfilling our customers’ orders, and could severely affect our ability to conduct normal business operations, the result of which would adversely affect our operating results.
Our success is dependent on our ability to recruit and retain skilled and motivated personnel.
Our success is highly dependent upon the continuing contributions of our key management, sales, technical, and engineering staff, and on our ability to attract, train, and retain highly skilled and motivated personnel. As more of our products are installed in increasingly complex environments, greater technical expertise will be required. As our installed base of customers increases, we will require additional resources to meet increased demands on our customer service and support personnel. Furthermore, as we execute on the industry vision of the Autonomous Pharmacy and grow and develop our cloud-based software as a service and solution as a service offerings, more specialized expertise will be required. This growth and shift in products and offerings could lead to increased labor costs, and thereby increased costs of our products and offerings, which could result reduced customer demand and our business, operating results, cash flow, or financial condition could be materially and adversely affected. Additionally, competition for specialized and technical personnel can be intense, and the pool of suitable candidates may be limited. We may not be successful in attracting and retaining qualified personnel. If we lose the services of one or more of our key personnel, we may not be able to find a suitable replacement and our business could be materially adversely affected. Furthermore, external (such as the COVID-19 pandemic) and internal (such as our continued growth or internal restructuring initiatives) factors may result in greater workloads for our employees compared to those at companies with which we compete for personnel, which may lead to higher levels of employee burnout and turnover.
Competitors have in the past attempted, and may in the future attempt, to recruit our employees. In addition, since equity compensation is a key component of our employee compensation program, any further decrease in our stock price or failure to receive stockholder approval for future proposed increases to the number of shares reserved for issuance under our equity incentive plans could prevent us from granting equity compensation at competitive levels and make it more difficult to attract, retain, and motivate employees, including key employees of acquired businesses. Failure to attract and retain key personnel could harm our competitive position, operating results, and financial condition.
Our failure to protect our intellectual property rights could negatively affect our ability to compete.
Our success depends in part on our ability to obtain patent protection for technology and processes, and our ability to preserve our trademarks, copyrights, and trade secrets. We have pursued patent protection in the United States and foreign jurisdictions for technology that we believe to be proprietary and for technology that we find offers us a potential competitive advantage for our products. We intend to continue to pursue such protection in the future. Our issued patents relate to various features of our medication management solutions and medication packaging systems. We cannot assure you that we will file any patent applications in the future and that any of our patent applications will result in issued patents, or that, if issued, such patents will provide significant protection for our technology and processes or a competitive advantage. Furthermore, we cannot assure you that such patents will not be challenged or invalidated or that others will not design around the patents we own. All of our system software is copyrighted and subject to the protection of applicable copyright laws; however, the laws of certain foreign countries do not protect our proprietary rights as effectively as they do in the U.S. Despite our efforts to protect our proprietary rights, there can be no assurance that our efforts to protect our proprietary rights are or will be adequate. that competitors will not independently develop similar technology, and that unauthorized parties will not attempt to copy aspects of our products or obtain and use information that we regard as proprietary, which could harm our competitive position.
Our products use raw materials and components that may be subject to price fluctuations, shortages, or interruptions of supply, and if we are unable to maintain supply sources for such raw materials and components, or if such sources fail to satisfy our supply requirements, in particular with regard to semiconductor chips, we may experience a loss of sales, increased component costs, and reduced profitability.
Factors that are largely beyond our control, such as the cost, quality, and availability of the raw materials and components utilized in the manufacture of our products, may affect the cost of such products, and we may not be able to pass those costs on to our customers. Our products use raw materials and components that may be subject to price fluctuations, shortages, or other disruptions of supply for many reasons outside of our control. In addition, we may be dependent upon a limited number of suppliers for certain components which may be unduly affected by supply chain disruptions. The cost, quality, and availability of these raw materials and components are essential to the successful manufacture and sale of our products. If we are unable to maintain supply sources of these raw materials and components, or if such sources fail to satisfy our supply requirements, we may lose sales and experience increased component costs.
We have developed and implemented strategies in an effort to mitigate the impact of price fluctuations, shortages, or other disruptions of supply, but these strategies, particularly in a prolonged inflationary environment, may only offset a portion of the adverse impact. We carry some inventory of critical components and are otherwise working to secure supplies necessary
to ensure fulfillment of customer demand, but global shortages could result in our need to secure supplies at higher costs as well as manufacturing delays. Supply interruptions may result in increased component delivery lead times and increased costs to obtain components and as a result the production of our products may be impacted. If we or our suppliers are unable to obtain components from third parties in the quantities and of the quality that we require, on a timely basis and at acceptable prices, we may not be able to deliver our products on a timely or cost-effective basis to our customers, or it may lead to us delivering products that are of a lower quality that may result in increased repair and replacement costs, which could harm our business and reputation, operating results, cash flow, and financial condition. We have also seen a period of sustained price increases for commodities used in the manufacture of our products that may continue as demand increases and supply remains constrained, which has resulted in, and may continue to result in, increased costs for Omnicell and thereby potentially lower profit margins. If the costs of these commodities increase or remain elevated, it could adversely affect our business, operating results, cash flow, or financial condition.
We depend on a limited number of suppliers for our products, and our business may suffer if we were required to change suppliers to obtain an adequate supply of components, equipment, and raw materials on a timely basis.
Although we generally use parts and components for our products with a high degree of modularity, certain components are presently available only from a single source or limited sources. We rely on a limited number of suppliers for the raw materials necessary to produce our consumable medication packages. While we have generally been able to obtain adequate supplies of all components and raw materials in a timely manner from existing sources, or where necessary, from alternative sources, we entered into relationships with new suppliers in connection with the launch of our XT Series products. We engage multiple single source third-party manufacturers to build several of our sub-assemblies. The risks associated with changing to alternative vendors, if necessary, for any of the numerous components used to manufacture our products could limit our ability to manufacture our products or result in the use of substitute components in our products that could lead to additional complexity or cost in maintaining our products and thereby harm our business. Due to our reliance on a few single source partners to build our hardware sub-assemblies and on a limited number of suppliers for the raw materials that are necessary in the production of our consumable medication packages, a reduction or interruption in supply from our partners or suppliers, or a significant increase in the price of one or more components could have an adverse impact on our business, operating results, cash flow, or financial condition. In certain circumstances, the failure of any of our suppliers or us to perform adequately could result in quality control issues affecting end users’ acceptance of our products, which could damage customer relationships and harm our business.
Our U.S. government lease agreements are subject to annual budget funding cycles and mandated changes, which may affect our ability to recognize revenues and sell receivables based on such leases.
Prior to September 2021, U.S. government customers that leased our equipment typically signed contracts with five-year payment terms that are subject to one-year government budget funding cycles. Effective September 2021, the government has mandated changes in its Federal Supply Services contract that has resulted in our determination not to enter into future leases with U.S. government customers. Our existing leases with U.S. government customers are unaffected by this change. As a result, our volume of U.S. government customer leases will decline over time and cease in the future. In addition, under the terms of the Federal Supply Schedule contract, certain of our U.S. government customer contracts are terminable at the convenience of the applicable U.S. government customer. If any of our government-owned or government-run hospital customers decide to terminate their agreements early for any reason, we would not derive the expected financial benefits from any such customer which could result in lower than expected revenue and adversely affect our business, operating results, cash flow, or financial condition. In addition, the failure of any of our U.S. government customers to receive their annual funding, or the government mandating changes to the Federal Supply Services contract, could impair our ability to sell equipment to these customers or to sell our U.S. government receivables to third-party leasing companies. In addition, the ability to collect payments on unsold receivables could be impaired and may result in a write-down of our unsold receivables from U.S. government customers. The balance of our unsold leases to U.S. government customers was $10.6 million as of December 31, 2023.
If we fail to manage our inventory properly, our revenue, gross margin, and profitability could suffer.
Managing our inventory of components and finished products is a complex task. A number of factors, including, but not limited to, the need to maintain a significant inventory of certain components that are in short supply or that must be purchased in bulk to obtain favorable pricing, the general unpredictability of demand for specific products and customer requests for quick delivery schedules, may result in us maintaining large amounts of inventory. Other factors, including changes in market demand, customer requirements, and technology, may cause our inventory to become obsolete. Any excess or obsolete inventory could result in inventory write-downs, which in turn could harm our business, operating results, cash flow, or financial condition.
Intellectual property claims against us could harm our competitive position, operating results, and financial condition.
We expect that developers of medication management solutions and medication packaging systems will be increasingly subject to infringement claims as the number of products and competitors in our industry grows and the functionality of products in different industry segments overlaps. In the future, third parties may claim that we have infringed upon, misappropriated, or otherwise violated their intellectual property rights with respect to current or future products. We do not carry special insurance that covers intellectual property infringement claims, however, such claims may be covered under our traditional insurance policies. These policies contain terms, conditions, and exclusions that make recovery for intellectual property infringement claims difficult to guarantee. Any infringement claims, with or without merit, could be time-consuming to defend, result in costly litigation, divert management’s attention and resources, cause product shipment delays, or require us to enter into royalty or licensing agreements. These royalty or licensing agreements, if required, may not be available on terms acceptable to us, or at all, which could harm our competitive position, operating results, and financial condition.
Product liability claims against us could harm our competitive position, operating results, and financial condition.
Our products include medication management solutions and medication adherence products and services for healthcare systems and pharmacies. Despite the presence of healthcare and pharmacy professionals as intermediaries between our products and patients, if our products fail to provide accurate and timely information or operate as designed, customers, patients, or their family members could assert claims against us for product liability. Moreover, failure of health care facility and pharmacy employees to use our products properly or for their intended purposes could result in product liability claims against us. Litigation with respect to product liability claims, regardless of any outcome, could result in substantial cost to us, divert management’s attention from operations, and decrease market acceptance of our products. We possess a variety of insurance policies that include coverage for general commercial liability and technology errors and omissions liability. We attempt to mitigate these risks through contractual terms negotiated with our customers. However, these policies and protective contractual terms may not be adequate against product liability claims and in the past we have been subject to certain lawsuits asserting, among other allegations, claims of product liability. A successful claim brought against us, or any claim or product recall that results in negative publicity about us, could harm our competitive position, operating results, and financial condition. Also, in the event that any of our products is defective, we may be required to recall or redesign those products, which could result in increased costs and have an adverse impact on our results of operation.
We are dependent on technologies provided by third-party vendors, the loss of which could negatively and materially affect our ability to market, sell, or distribute our products.
Some of our products incorporate technologies owned by third parties that are licensed to us for use, modification, and distribution. If we lose access to third-party technologies or we lose the ongoing rights to modify and distribute these technologies with our products, we will have to devote resources to independently develop, maintain, and support the technologies ourselves, pay increased license costs, or transition to another vendor. Any independent development, maintenance, or support of these technologies by us or the transition to alternative technologies could be costly, time consuming, and could delay our product releases and upgrade schedules. These factors could negatively and materially affect our ability to market, sell, or distribute our products.
Investment in new business strategies, initiatives, products or solutions could disrupt ongoing business and present risks not originally contemplated.
We have invested, and in the future may invest, in new business strategies, initiatives, products or solutions, including with respect to our software as a service or solution as a service subscription products and services or other subscription and cloud-based offerings. Such endeavors may involve significant risks and uncertainties, including distraction of management from current operations, lack of expertise to effectively execute such strategies or initiatives or to develop such products or solutions, delays, technical problems (including software defects or errors) or unexpected expenses related to the entry into new business strategies or initiatives or development of new products or solutions, insufficient revenue to offset liabilities assumed and expenses associated with a strategy, initiative, product or solution, inadequate return of capital or return on investment, and unidentified issues not discovered in our due diligence. These new ventures may be inherently risky and may not be successful. Even if successful, they may not have the projected or actual impact that we initially expected or that recoups our initial
investment and we may make a determination to exit a particular business strategy, initiative, product line or solution. As a result, such initiatives may materially adversely affect our business, operating results, cash flow, or financial condition.
Risks Related to Ownership of Our Common Stock
The market price of our common stock may continue to be highly volatile.
Our common stock traded between $77.14 and $28.72 per share during the year ended December 31, 2023. The market price of our common stock has been and may continue to be highly volatile in response to various factors discussed in this “Risk Factors” section, many of which are beyond our control, including:
•actual or anticipated changes in our operating results or forecasts, and whether our operating results meet our publicly announced guidance or expectations of securities analysts or investors;
•changes in the ratings of our common stock by securities analysts or changes in their earnings estimates;
•changes in our business model and initiatives, such as our ongoing transition to focus on a subscription-based business model or a decision to exit a particular business or product line, and our ongoing restructuring initiatives to contain costs;
•developments in our customer relationships;
•changes in our Board of Directors, senior management, or key personnel;
•announcements by us or our competitors of technological innovations or new products;
•mergers, acquisitions, combinations, and other significant transactions involving us or our competitors;
•our sale of our common stock or other securities;
•level of demand for our common stock, and actions by stockholders or short sellers of our common stock;
•changes in laws or regulations applicable to our products or services;
•our involvement in any litigation or investigations by government authorities, including litigation judgments, settlements, or other litigation-related costs;
•cyber events, such as the ransomware incident we experienced in May 2022;
•epidemics, pandemics, or other major public health crises, such as the COVID-19 pandemic; or
•general economic, regulatory, political and market conditions.
Furthermore, the stock market in general, and the market for technology companies in particular, have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations. These broad market fluctuations may cause the market price of our common stock to decline irrespective of our performance. In addition, sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market, or the perception that such sales could occur, could lower the market price of our common stock.
In addition, stockholders have initiated class action lawsuits against companies following periods of volatility in the market prices of these companies’ stock. For example, in July 2019, a putative class action lawsuit was filed against Omnicell and certain of our officers alleging that the defendants violated federal securities laws by making certain materially false and misleading statements. While this action was concluded in December 2019 following the lead plaintiff’s voluntary dismissal as to all defendants, we may in the future be subject to other class action lawsuits, especially following periods of volatility in our stock price.
Our quarterly and annual operating results may fluctuate, which makes our future operating results difficult to predict, and may cause our stock price to decline.
Our quarterly and annual operating results have varied and may vary in the future. In addition to other factors discussed in this “Risk Factors” section, factors, many of which are outside of our control and are difficult to predict, that may cause our quarterly or annual operating results to fluctuate include, but are not limited to, the following:
•the size, product mix, and timing of orders for our products, and their installation and integration and whether our estimates for the same were proper;
•our ability to successfully install our products on a timely basis and meet other contractual obligations necessary to recognize revenue;
•fluctuations in customer demand for our products, including due to changes in our customers’ budgets, healthcare worker turnover rates and labor shortages and whether customer demand was properly estimated;
•our ability to control costs, including operating expenses, and continue cost reduction efforts, such as our restructuring initiative;
•changes in pricing policies by us or our competitors;
•the number, timing, and significance of product enhancements and new product announcements by us or our competitors;
•the timing and significance of any acquisition or business development transactions that we may consider or negotiate and the revenues, costs, and earnings that may be associated with these transactions;
•the relative proportions of revenues we derive from products and services;
•our ability to generate cash from our accounts receivable on a timely basis;
•changes in, and our ability to successfully execute on, our business strategy; and
•macroeconomic and political conditions, including fluctuations in interest rates, tax increases, availability of credit markets, and trade and tariff actions.
Due to all of these factors, our quarterly or annual revenues and operating results are difficult to predict and may fluctuate, which in turn may cause the market price of our stock to decline.
If financial or industry analysts have difficulty understanding the changes to our business model, or we fail to meet (or significantly exceed) our publicly announced financial guidance, our stock price and trading volume could decline.
We are transitioning to focus on a subscription-based business model, which industry or financial analysts that publish reports about our business, may not have historically reflected, or may not accurately reflect in the future. As a result, analysts’ ability to accurately forecast our results may be negatively impacted and it may be more likely that we fail to meet their estimates. As a result, if our financial results fail to meet (or significantly exceed) our publicly announced financial guidance or the expectations of analysts or investors, analysts could downgrade our common stock or publish unfavorable research that could cause our stock price or trading volume to decline, potentially significantly.
Raising additional capital may cause dilution to our existing stockholders, restrict our operations or harm our business, operating results, cash flow, or financial condition.
We may seek additional capital through a variety of means, including through private and public equity offerings and debt financings. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, or the refinancing of our existing convertible notes, the ownership interest will be diluted, and the terms may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect the rights of our stockholders. Debt financing, if available, may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take certain actions, such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures, entering into licensing arrangements, or declaring dividends. If we raise additional funds from third parties, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our technologies, or grant licenses on terms that are not favorable to us.
If we are unable to raise additional funds through equity or debt financing when needed, our ability to market, sell, or distribute our products and/or fund our operations may be negatively impacted and could harm our business, operating results, cash flow, or financial condition.
Certain provisions in our charter documents and under Delaware law may discourage, delay, or prevent an acquisition of us and limit our stockholders’ ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for certain disputes.
Certain anti-takeover provisions of Delaware law and our charter documents may make a change in control of our Company more difficult, even if a change in control would be beneficial to the stockholders. Our certificate of incorporation provides that stockholders’ meetings may only be called by our Board of Directors. Our bylaws provide that stockholders may not take action by written consent, and require that stockholders comply with advance notice procedures to nominate director candidates for election or to propose matters to be acted upon at a meeting of our stockholders. Delaware law also prohibits corporations from engaging in a business combination with any holders of 15% or more of their capital stock until the holder has held the stock for three years unless, among other possibilities, our Board of Directors approves the transaction. Our Board
of Directors may use these provisions to prevent changes in the management and control of our Company. Also, under applicable Delaware law, our Board of Directors may adopt additional anti-takeover measures in the future including, without limitation, a stockholder rights plan.
In addition, our bylaws also establish the Delaware Court of Chancery as the exclusive forum for certain legal actions, including certain stockholder disputes, and establish the federal district courts of the United States of America as the exclusive forum for any action asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, which exclusive forum provisions may limit the ability of our stockholders to bring a claim in a judicial forum that such stockholders find favorable for disputes with us or our directors, officers, or other employees.
Risk Factors Related to Our Notes
Conversion of the Notes may dilute the ownership interest of our stockholders, depress the price of our common stock or, if the conditional conversion feature of the Notes is triggered, adversely affect our business, operating results, cash flow, or financial condition.
The Notes are convertible at the option of the holders on or after May 15, 2025 and, in certain circumstances, prior to May 15, 2025. The initial conversion rate for the Notes is 10.2751 shares of our common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, subject to adjustment under certain circumstances in accordance with the terms of the Indenture. On December 13, 2021, we made an irrevocable election under the Indenture to require the principal portion of our Notes to be settled in cash (up to $1,000 in cash per $1,000 principal amount of Notes) and any conversion consideration in excess of $1,000, in cash and/or shares of our common stock, at our option, upon conversion. The conversion of some or all of the Notes may dilute the ownership interests of our stockholders. As we have the option to settle the excess of the principal amount in shares of our common stock, any sales in the public market of our common stock issuable upon such conversion could adversely affect prevailing market prices of our common stock. In addition, the existence of the Notes may encourage short selling of our common stock by market participants because the conversion of the Notes could be used to satisfy short positions, or the anticipated conversion of the Notes into shares of our common stock could depress the price of our common stock.
Following our irrevocable election, only the shares of common stock expected to be settled in excess of the principal amount are considered dilutive for calculating earnings per share under the if-converted method. Accordingly, as the price of our common stock increases, our diluted earnings per share could be adversely affected.
Prior to May 15, 2025, if a circumstance that permits early conversion occurs, holders of the Notes will be entitled to convert their Notes at any time during specified periods at their option.
If one or more holders elect to convert their Notes, we will be required to settle at least the principal amount of our conversion obligation through the payment of cash (up to $1,000 in cash per $1,000 principal amount of Notes), which could adversely affect our liquidity. In addition, as a result of the irrevocable election, in periods when the conditional conversion feature of the Notes is triggered, we must reclassify all of the outstanding principal of the Notes as a current rather than long-term liability, which could result in a material reduction of our net working capital during those periods.
The convertible note hedge and warrant transactions may affect the value of our common stock.
In connection with the offering of the Notes, we entered into convertible note hedge transactions with an affiliate of one of the initial purchasers of the Notes and certain other financial institutions (the “option counterparties”). We also entered into warrant transactions with the option counterparties. The convertible note hedge transactions are expected generally to reduce the potential dilution to our common stock upon any conversion of Notes and/or offset any cash payments we are required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted Notes, as the case may be. However, the warrant transactions separately have, and could continue to have a dilutive effect on our common stock to the extent that the market price per share of our common stock exceeds the strike price of the warrants. In addition, the option counterparties or their respective affiliates may modify their hedge positions by entering into or unwinding various derivatives with respect to our common stock and/or purchasing or selling our common stock or other securities of ours in secondary market transactions prior to the maturity of the Notes (and are likely to do so in connection with any conversion of the Notes or redemption or repurchase of the Notes), which could cause or avoid an increase or a decrease in the market price of our common stock.
Changes in the credit quality of the option counterparties may affect the efficacy of our hedge and warrant transactions. By entering into the hedge and warrant transactions, we are subject to the risk that the option counterparties may incur significant financial hardships, potentially resulting in their default under the convertible note hedge transactions. Our exposure to the credit risk of the option counterparties will not be secured by any collateral. If an option counterparty becomes subject to insolvency proceedings, we will become an unsecured creditor in those proceedings with a claim equal to our exposure at that time under the convertible note hedge transactions with such option counterparty. Our exposure will depend on many factors but, generally, an increase in our exposure will be correlated to an increase in the market price and in the volatility
of our common stock. In addition, upon a default by an option counterparty, we may suffer adverse tax consequences and more dilution than we currently anticipate with respect to our common stock. We can provide no assurances that the hedge or warrant transactions will have the intended effects or as to the financial stability or viability of the option counterparties.
General Risk Factors
Changes in our tax rates, exposure to additional tax liabilities, or the adoption of new tax legislation could adversely affect our business, operating results, cash flow, or financial condition.
We are subject to taxes in the United States and foreign jurisdictions in which we operate. Our future effective tax rates could be affected by several factors, many of which are outside of our control, including: changes in the mix of earnings with differing statutory tax rates, changes in the valuation of deferred tax assets and liabilities, changes in federal, state, and international tax laws or their interpretation, adjustments to income tax expense upon the finalization of tax returns, changes in tax attributes, or changes in accounting principles. We regularly assess the likelihood of adverse outcomes to determine the adequacy of our provision for taxes. We are also subject to examination of our income tax returns by the Internal Revenue Service and other tax authorities. There can be no assurance that the outcomes from these examinations will not materially adversely affect our business, operating results, cash flow, or financial condition. Forecasting our estimated annual effective tax rate is complex and subject to uncertainty, and there may be a material difference between the forecasted and the accrued effective tax rates. Any increase in our effective tax rate would reduce our profitability.
Failure to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 could cause our stock price to decline.
Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the related rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) require annual management assessments of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, and a report by our independent registered public accounting firm attesting to the effectiveness of internal control. If we fail to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting, as such standards are modified, supplemented, or amended from time to time, we may not be able to ensure that we can conclude on an ongoing basis that we have effective internal control over financial reporting. Should that occur, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results, prevent fraud, or file our periodic reports in a timely manner, which may cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information and may lead to a decline in our stock price. In addition, our failure to timely file our periodic reports could eventually result in the delisting of our common stock, regulatory sanctions from the SEC, and/or the breach of the terms contained in our credit facility, or any preferred equity or debt securities we may issue in the future, any of which could have a material adverse impact on our operations and your investment in our common stock.
ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS
There are currently no unresolved issues with respect to any SEC staff’s written comments.
ITEM 1C. CYBERSECURITY
In general, the Company addresses cybersecurity risks through a comprehensive approach that is focused on preserving the security of its information and by identifying, preventing and mitigating cybersecurity threats, as well as effectively responding to cybersecurity incidents when they occur. The Company believes that this comprehensive approach helps to ensure that the highest levels of oversight is provided to its cybersecurity risk management activities and fosters collaborative consultation between management and the Board.
Board Oversight
As part of its risk oversight function, the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors is primarily responsible for overseeing and reviewing the Company’s information security and technology risks, including cybersecurity. In this role, the Audit Committee monitors the prevention, detection, mitigation and remediation of cybersecurity incidents through the regular receipt of reports from management on the effectiveness of its cybersecurity programs. These reports include semi-annual cybersecurity updates from the Company’s Chief Information Officer and quarterly reports from the Company’s risk management personnel on the progress of the Company’s broader Enterprise Risk Management (“ERM”) risk mitigation activities. As part of the ERM process, the Audit Committee provides input on key risks for the Company to consider. In addition, the Board also provides quarterly input on its views regarding potential emerging risk areas for the Company. The Audit Committee then reports to the full Board on a quarterly basis regarding its oversight activities and the risk management activities of the Company. In addition, the full Board receives periodic presentations from management on emerging information security and cybersecurity risks, as well as incident reports as significant matters may arise.
Enterprise Risk Management
Omnicell utilizes a structured, biannual ERM process to identify, assess, and address material risks facing the Company, including cybersecurity risks, during which business leaders across the Company are surveyed about current and emerging risk areas. After the ERM survey is completed and risk areas are identified, the results are discussed with the relevant management personnel across the organization in the key risk areas, root causes are analyzed and risk mitigation plans are developed. The Chief Information Officer works closely with Omnicell’s management team in all facets of its ERM risk mitigation activities related to cybersecurity and information security risks.
Ongoing Mitigation Efforts
The Company has implemented a number of security measures designed to protect its systems and data, including firewalls, antivirus and malware detection tools, patches, log monitors, routine back-ups, system audits, system hardening, penetration testing and privileged access session management. In addition, the Company has continued its efforts to migrate its platforms to cloud-based computing, which is designed to further strengthen its security posture. The Company has focused on its incident response procedures and retained a leading incident response provider. The Company has also recently strengthened its disaster recovery procedures. The Company’s solutions incorporate cybersecurity features that are routinely analyzed. In addition, the Company maintains insurance that includes coverage for cyber-attacks, which coverage is discussed and reviewed with the Audit Committee annually.
The Company has what it believes are appropriate physical, technical, and administrative controls in place that are designed to protect customers’ data. However, as previously disclosed, on May 4, 2022, the Company determined that certain of its information technology systems were affected by ransomware impacting certain internal systems. Upon detecting the security event, the Company took immediate steps designed to contain the incident and implement its business continuity plans to restore and support continued operations. Subsequently, the Company contained the incident and restored substantially all of its critical information technology systems.
Following this cybersecurity event, the Company immediately implemented several key learnings from the incident, including using a three-pronged approach focused on further reducing exposure, raising greater security awareness, and further strengthening the Company’s cybersecurity defenses. This approach resulted in the Company further hardening its identity computing environments as part of its progress to a zero trust environment, heightened cybersecurity awareness efforts through increased comprehensive information security awareness training for employees on a quarterly basis, and the strengthening of the Company’s cybersecurity defenses through implementation of multifactor authentication for Privileged Access Management and Endpoint Detection and Response solutions across the Company’s computing environment.
Incident Response
In the event of a cybersecurity incident, dependent upon the nature of the incident, the Company has a Security Incident Response Team (“SIRT”) that is comprised of employees who have responsibility and authority to act during a cyber incident without delay, including, dependent upon the nature of the incident, the Company’s Chief Legal Officer, Chief
Information Security Officer and Chief Information Officer. The SIRT includes individuals responsible for assessing, containing, and responding to incidents, as well as those responsible for assessing the business and legal impacts, reporting incidents as appropriate, communicating to internal and external stakeholders, and engaging with industry and government response partners to coordinate information and resource sharing when needed. During a cybersecurity incident, as warranted, the SIRT keeps the Company’s senior leadership and Board apprised of the response to the incident, any operational or business impacts, and any internal or external communications regarding the incident. The SIRT will also seek the input of the Company’s senior leadership and Board, as needed, when addressing a cybersecurity incident. Upon resolution of a cybersecurity incident, generally, the Audit Committee will review the incident, the impact and the mitigation efforts and remediation actions the Company will implement. The Audit Committee then monitors the completion of the remediation actions and mitigation efforts.
Cybersecurity Leaders in Management
The Company’s IT strategy and implementation is overseen by a dedicated Chief Information Officer with over 20 years of experience in the field, including previously serving a 17-year tenure, most recently as Vice President of Global IT, with a global technology leader of fiber optic subsystems and components. He holds a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science and Engineering from Andhra University in India and an MBA from the Indian School of Business. In addition, the Company has recently engaged a Chief Information Security Officer (“CISO”). The Company’s CISO has built and managed world-class information security programs and technology teams for industry leading global companies. She has deep experience securing healthcare-focused companies in both the provider and supplier space. She holds a Bachelor of Science from the University of Redlands and an MBA from Notre Dame De Namur University along with holding certified information systems security professional (“CISSP”) and certified information security manager (“CISM”) certifications.
Third Parties
The Company utilizes third-party service providers, such as cloud services, in connection with its operations, and its information security department implements a third-party risk assessment and review process in connection with those services to evaluate security posture and risk. The Company also engages third parties to assist in its cybersecurity management efforts, such as the leading incident response provider mentioned above and another provider to perform continuous monitoring and regular penetration testing of its information security systems and environment. The Company and its personnel also actively engage with a number of other key vendors, industry participants and intelligence and law enforcement communities as part of its information security and cybersecurity efforts.
Impact of Recent Cyber Incident
While the previously disclosed ransomware incident led to (i) temporarily delayed invoicing that impacted the timing of cash collections and free cash flow in 2022 and (ii) customer implementation delays in 2022, as the Company recovered from the impacts of the ransomware incident, substantially all delayed implementations due to the ransomware incident were completed as of the end 2022. Furthermore, any delayed or impacted processes have returned to normal operations. To date, the Company does not believe the ransomware incident, or other identified cyber risks, have had, or will have, a material adverse effect on its business, operating results, cash flow, or financial condition.

OVERVIEW
Our Business
Omnicell, a leader in transforming the pharmacy care delivery model, is committed to solving the critical challenges inherent in medication management and elevating the role of clinicians within healthcare as an essential component of care delivery. Omnicell is focused on helping its customers to define and deliver a cost effective medication management strategy that is designed to equip and empower pharmacists and nurses to focus on patient care rather than administrative tasks, and to drive improved clinical, operational, and financial outcomes across all care settings. We are doing this with an industry-leading medication management infrastructure which includes robotics, smart devices, intelligent software, and expert services. This comprehensive set of solutions provides the critical foundation for customers to realize the industry vision of the Autonomous Pharmacy, a vision defined by pharmacy leaders for improving operational efficiencies and ultimately targeting zero-error medication management.
Omnicell solutions are helping healthcare facilities worldwide to reduce costs, improve labor efficiency, establish new revenue streams, enhance supply chain control, support compliance, and move closer to the industry vision of the Autonomous Pharmacy. We sell our product and consumable solutions together with related service offerings. Revenues generated in the United States represented 88% of our total revenues for the year ended December 31, 2023.
Over the past several years, our business has expanded from a single-point solution to a platform of products and services that will help to further advance the industry vision of the Autonomous Pharmacy. This expansion has resulted in larger deal sizes across multiple products, services, and implementations for customers and, we believe, more comprehensive, valuable, and enduring relationships. As our business evolves, we continue to evaluate the metrics and methods we use to measure the success of our business.
We utilize bookings as an indicator of the success of our business. We define bookings generally as: (i) the value of non-cancelable contracts for our connected devices, software products, and Advanced Services (although, for those Advanced Services contracts without a minimum commitment, bookings only include the amount of revenue that has been recognized once the services have been provided); and (ii) for our consumables, the value of orders placed through our Omnicell Storefront online platform or through written or telephonic orders. We typically exclude technical services and other less significant items ancillary to our products and services, such as freight revenue from bookings. In addition, dependent upon counterparty or credit risk, which is evaluated at the time of contract signing, for a given multi-year subscription contract we may reduce the portion of the contractual commitment booked at a given time. As noted, the portfolio of products, solutions and services we offer has evolved. As a result, the ordering process for certain of our solutions has also evolved. For example, orders for certain solutions may not include a purchase order. Connected devices and software license bookings are recorded as revenue upon customer acceptance of the installation or receipt of goods. Revenues from Advanced Services bookings are recorded over the contractual term. Bookings decreased by 19%, from $1.054 billion in 2022 to $854 million in 2023, primarily driven by lower-than-expected orders for our Advanced Services, particularly our technology-enabled services, which include Central Pharmacy Dispensing Service and IV Compounding Service.
We generally provide installation planning and consulting as part of most connected device product sales, which is typically included in the initial price of the solution. To help ensure the maximum availability of our systems, our customers typically purchase technical services contracts (maintenance and support) in increments of one to five years. In addition to connected device product sales, we provide a range of services to our customers. We also provide Advanced Services such as Central Pharmacy Dispensing Service (service portion), IV Compounding Service (service portion), EnlivenHealth, Specialty Pharmacy Services, 340B solutions, Inventory Optimization Service, and other software solutions, which typically are provided over 2-7 years.
The following table summarizes each revenue category:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Revenue Category | | Revenue Type | | Income Statement Classification | | Included in Bookings |
| Connected devices, software licenses, and other | | Nonrecurring | | Product | | Yes (1) |
| Consumables | | Recurring | | Product | | Yes |
| Technical services | | Recurring | | Service | | No |
Advanced Services (2) (3) | | Recurring | | Service | | Yes |
_________________________________________________(1) Certain other insignificant revenue streams ancillary to our products and services, such as freight revenue, are not included in bookings.
(2) Includes Central Pharmacy Dispensing Service (service portion), IV Compounding Service (service portion), EnlivenHealth, Specialty Pharmacy Services, 340B solutions, Inventory Optimization Service, and other software solutions.
(3) For those Advanced Services contracts without a minimum commitment, bookings only include the amount of revenue that has been recognized once the services have been provided.
Our full-time employee headcount was approximately 3,650 on December 31, 2023, a decrease of approximately 580 employees since December 31, 2022. The decrease in employee headcount reflects the impact of restructuring initiatives announced in November 2022 and November 2023.
Operating Segments
We manage our operations as a single segment for the purposes of assessing performance and making operating decisions. Our Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) is our Chief Executive Officer. The CODM allocates resources and evaluates the performance of Omnicell at the consolidated level using information about our revenues, gross profit, income from operations, and other key financial data. All significant operating decisions are based upon an analysis of Omnicell as one operating segment, which is the same as our reporting segment.
Business Strategy
The U.S. spent a total of $634 billion on prescription drugs in 2022, an increase of 9% compared to 2021, and prescription drugs impact the vast majority of patients in virtually all settings of care. We believe there are significant challenges facing the practice of pharmacy today including, but not limited to, budget constraints, increased healthcare worker turnover rates, labor shortages, drug shortages, drug diversion, manual and error-prone processes, complex compliance requirements, and limited inventory visibility. Each of these challenges may lead to poor medication management outcomes including, but not limited to, medication errors, adverse drug events, lack of patient adherence, and medication waste. We also recognize that these challenges may impact the timing of contracting for, or implementing, our products, solutions, or services. However, we believe that over time these significant challenges to the practice of pharmacy will drive demand for increased automation, visibility, insights, and improved medication management outcomes that our solutions are designed to enable. Because of this, we believe that our solutions are well-positioned to address the evolving needs of healthcare institutions and therefore present opportunities for long-term growth.
In an effort to address these challenges and deliver solutions to help drive positive medication management outcomes, we continue to make significant investments in our research and development efforts to further advance the industry vision of the Autonomous Pharmacy. Furthermore, we believe a combination of robotics, smart devices, intelligent software, and expert services is needed in every care setting where medications are managed. We are focused on delivering solutions to help our customers realize the industry vision of the Autonomous Pharmacy and drive positive medication management outcomes with outstanding customer experience through a mature channel in four market categories:
•Point of Care. As a market leader, we expect to continue expansion into this product market as customers increase the use of our dispensing systems in more areas within their hospitals and increasingly in ambulatory care settings. However, we recognize that the current macroeconomic environment, with significant labor constraints, may impact our customers’ considerations in the near term when they are determining whether to implement new workflows that may affect those same stressed labor pools. As we are largely through the replacement cycle of our previous generation of automated dispensing systems, we are seeing demand moderate. We continue to invest in next-generation point of care enhancements and solutions and believe that customers will upgrade their current installed base over time as we deliver these new solutions to market. We also believe there is an opportunity for us to expand this offering and define a new standard for dispensing systems in ambulatory settings. We believe our current solutions within the Point of Care market and new innovation and services will continue to help customers drive improved clinical and financial outcomes.
•Central Pharmacy and IV Compounding. This market represents the beginning of the medication management process in acute care settings, and we believe it is a significant automation opportunity for high volumes of manual, repetitive, and error-prone processes that are often common in pharmacies today. Manual medication dispensing processes are usually labor intensive, error-prone, and may lead to excess medication waste and expirations for our healthcare partners. Automating the central pharmacy dispensing process should enable customers to reallocate pharmacy labor, enhance dispensing accuracy and patient safety, and reduce medication waste and expirations. Likewise, the manual compounding of sterile IV preparations can be error-prone and create significant patient safety risks, and outsourcing sterile IV compounding could lead to increased medication costs and lack of access to needed medications as a result of being unable to source medications when they are required. As a result, we believe IV automation provides a significant opportunity to enhance patient safety and reduce costs. We anticipate that these technology-enabled services will become more critical as health systems continue to face labor shortages, increased financial pressure, and supply chain disruptions.
•Specialty Pharmacy and 340B Program. We believe that health systems will continue to invest in programs that are intended to improve patient outcomes and drive cost savings by utilizing specialty pharmacies and the federal 340B Drug Pricing Program (the “340B Program”). The 340B Program allows qualifying hospitals and health systems to stretch federal resources and expand patient access to healthcare by requiring manufacturers participating in Medicaid to sell outpatient drugs at discounted prices to eligible healthcare organizations and covered entities. Specialty drugs are used for treatment of complex conditions and often require intensive patient management and specialized workflows for dispensing and care coordination. Specialty medications are projected to account for nearly 60% of U.S. total spending on medications, with total spending projected to be approximately $420 billion in 2025. Specialty pharmacies serve as the connection between patients, prescribing physicians, and payers and work to streamline access and adherence to these specialty drugs. We believe a solution that is designed to help health systems start or optimize their specialty pharmacy programs and the related pharmaceutical aspects of patient care will help ensure continuity of care and should contribute to the revenue and profitability of those organizations. We believe that a fully optimized specialty pharmacy operation represents one of the largest economic opportunities for hospitals and health systems.
•Retail, Institutional, and Payer. We believe the Retail, Institutional, and Payer market represents a significant opportunity as healthcare evolves. Retail drug prescriptions represent 85% of all prescription drugs dispensed in the U.S., growing at a rate of 1.7% annually through 2022. Additionally, the COVID-19 pandemic accelerated the shift of outpatient care from hospitals and physician offices to other, more convenient settings, such as retail pharmacies and the home (including through telehealth technologies). New technologies and increased scope of practice for pharmacists appear to be spurring innovation and expansion of the provision of clinical services by retail pharmacies, which, combined with the move to value-based care, we believe will drive the adoption of our patient engagement solutions, that are intended to help providers (including pharmacists) and payers engage patients in new ways that are expected to improve outcomes, reduce the total cost of care, and lead to more profitable operations. Because of the complexity of relationships between payers and providers, as well as the large number of retail pharmacies, including a significant number of independent pharmacies, we believe a network of established relationships between payers, providers and pharmacies will continue to be important.
Ransomware Incident
Further information with respect to the ransomware incident we experienced in May 2022 may be found under the headings “Ongoing Mitigation Efforts” and “Impact of Recent Cyber Incident” in Part I, Item 1C of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Such information is incorporated herein by reference.
Acquisitions
On January 10, 2022, we completed the acquisition of Hub and Spoke Innovations Limited (“Hub and Spoke Innovations”), pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Share Purchase Agreement, dated January 10, 2022, by and among Omnicell Limited (a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company), Hub and Spoke Innovations Limited, and certain beneficial stockholders specified therein for a base purchase price of £2.5 million (approximately $3.4 million based on the exchange rate in effect at the acquisition date), prior to customary adjustments for closing cash, net working capital, and assumed indebtedness. The Hub and Spoke Innovations acquisition is expected to complement Omnicell’s total solution technology portfolio for retail pharmacy in the United Kingdom to help pharmacies improve workflows, offer patients 24/7 access to their medications and provide enhanced patient care. The results of the operations of Hub and Spoke Innovations have been included in our consolidated results of operations beginning January 10, 2022.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of any contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. We regularly review our estimates and assumptions, which are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of certain assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates and assumptions. We believe the following critical accounting policies are affected by significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our Consolidated Financial Statements:
Revenue Recognition
We earn revenues from sales of our products and related services, which are sold in the healthcare industry, our principal market.
Prior to recognizing revenue, we identify the contract, performance obligations, and transaction price, and allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations. All identified contracts meet the following required criteria:
Parties to the contract have approved the contract (in writing, orally, or in accordance with other customary business practices) and are committed to perform their respective obligations. A majority of our contracts are evidenced by a non-cancelable written agreement. Contracts for consumable products are generally evidenced by an order placed via our online portal, phone, or a purchase order.
Entity can identify each party’s rights regarding the goods or services to be transferred. Contract terms are documented within the written agreements. Where a written contract does not exist, such as for consumable products, the rights of each party are understood as following our standard business process and terms.
The entity can identify the payment terms for the goods or services to be transferred. Payment terms are documented within the agreement and are generally net 30 to 60 days from shipment of tangible product or services performed for
customers in the United States. Where a written contract does not exist, our standard payment terms are net 30 day terms.
The contract has commercial substance (that is the risk, timing, or amount of the entity’s future cash flows is expected to change as a result of the contract). Our agreements are an exchange of cash for a combination of products and services which result in changes in the amount of our future cash flows.
It is probable the entity will collect the consideration to which it will be entitled in exchange for the goods or services that will be transferred to the customer. We perform a credit check for all significant customers or transactions and where collectability is not probable, payment in full or a substantial down payment prior to shipment is typically required to help ensure the full agreed upon contract price will be collected.
Distinct goods or services are identified as performance obligations. A series of distinct goods or services that are substantially the same and that have the same pattern of transfer to the customer are considered a single performance obligation. Where a good or service is determined not to be distinct, we combine the good or service with other promised goods or services until a bundle of goods or services that is distinct is identified. To identify our performance obligations, we consider all products or services promised in the contract regardless of whether they are explicitly stated or are implied by customary business practices. When performance obligations are included in separate contracts, we consider an entire customer arrangement to determine if separate contracts should be considered combined for the purposes of revenue recognition. Most of our sales, other than renewals of support and maintenance, contain multiple performance obligations, with a combination of hardware systems, software products, support and maintenance, and professional services.
The transaction price of a contract is determined based on the fixed consideration, net of an estimate for variable consideration such as various discounts or rebates provided to customers. As a result of our commercial selling practices, contract prices are generally fixed with minimal, if any, variable consideration.
The transaction price is allocated to separate performance obligations proportionally based on the standalone selling price of each performance obligation. Standalone selling price is best evidenced by the price we charge for the good or service when selling it separately in similar circumstances to similar customers. Other than for the renewal of annual technical services contracts, our products and services are not generally sold separately. We use an amount discounted from the list price as a best estimated selling price.
We recognize revenue when the performance obligation has been satisfied by transferring a promised good or service to a customer. The good or service is transferred when or as the customer obtains control of the good or service. Determining when control transfers requires management to make judgments that affect the timing of revenues recognized. Generally, for products requiring a complex implementation, control passes when the product is installed and ready for use. For all other products, control generally passes when product has been shipped and title has passed. For maintenance contracts and certain other services, including Advanced Services provided on a subscription basis, control passes to the customer over time, generally ratably over the service term as we provide a stand-ready service for the customer’s equipment. Time and material services transfer control to the customer at the time the services are provided. The portion of the transaction price allocated to our unsatisfied performance obligations for which invoicing has occurred is recorded as deferred revenues, net of deferred cost of goods sold.
Revenues, contract assets, and contract liabilities are recorded net of associated taxes.
From time to time, we enter into change orders which modify the product to be received by the customer pursuant to certain contracts. Changes to any contract are accounted for as a modification of the existing contract to the extent the goods and services to be delivered as part of the contract are generally consistent with the nature and type of those to be provided under the terms of the original contract. Examples of such change orders include the addition or removal of units of equipment or changes to the configuration of the equipment where the overall nature of the contract remains intact. Our change orders generally result in the change being accounted for as modifications of existing contracts given the nature of the impacted orders.
In the normal course of business, we typically do not accept product returns unless the item is defective as manufactured or the configuration of the product is incorrect. We establish provisions for estimated returns based on historical product returns. The allowance for sales returns is not material to our Consolidated Financial Statements for any periods presented.
Lessor Leases
We determine if an arrangement is or contains a lease at inception. The transaction price is allocated to separate performance obligations, generally consisting of a combination of hardware systems, software products, support and maintenance, and professional services, proportionally based on the standalone selling price of each performance obligation. Standalone selling price is best evidenced by the price we charge for the good or service when selling it separately in similar
circumstances to similar customers. Other than for the renewal of annual technical services contracts, our products and services are not generally sold separately. We use an amount discounted from the list price as a best estimated selling price.
Sales-Type Leases
We enter into non-cancelable sales-type lease arrangements, most of which do not have an option to extend the lease term. At the end of the lease term, the customer must either return the equipment or negotiate a new agreement, resulting in a new purchase or lease transaction. Failure of the customer to either return the equipment or negotiate a new agreement results in the contract becoming a month-to-month rental. Certain sales-type leases automatically renew for successive one-year periods at the end of each lease term without written notice from the customer. Our sales-type lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees.
For sales-type leases, we recognize revenues for our hardware and software products, net of lease execution costs, post-installation product maintenance, professional services associated with Advanced Services offerings, and technical support, at the net present value of the lease payment stream upon customer acceptance. We recognize service revenues associated with sales-type leases ratably over the term of the agreement in service revenues in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. We recognize interest income from sales-type leases using the effective interest method. Both hardware and software revenues, and interest income from sales-types leases are recorded in product revenues in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
We optimize cash flows by selling a majority of our sales-type leases, other than those relating to U.S. government hospitals and Advanced Services products, including Central Pharmacy Dispensing Service and IV Compounding Service, to third-party leasing finance companies on a non-recourse basis. We have no obligation to the leasing company once the lease has been sold.
Allowance for Credit Losses
We are exposed to credit losses primarily through sales of our products and services, as well as our sales-type leasing arrangements. We perform credit evaluations of our customers’ financial condition in order to assess each customer’s ability to pay. These evaluations require significant judgment and are based on a variety of factors including, but not limited to, current economic trends, payment history, and a financial review of the customer. We continue to monitor customers’ creditworthiness on an ongoing basis.
We maintain an allowance for credit losses for accounts receivable, unbilled receivables, and net investment in sales-type leases based on expected credit losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make required payments. The allowance for credit losses is measured using a loss rate method, considering factors such as customers’ credit risk, historical loss experience, current conditions, and forecasts. The allowance for credit losses is measured on a collective (pool) basis by aggregating customer balances with similar risk characteristics. We also record a specific allowance based on an analysis of individual past due balances or customer-specific information, such as a decline in creditworthiness or bankruptcy. Actual collection losses may differ from management’s estimates, and such differences could be material to our financial position and results of operations.
Inventory
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, computed using the first-in, first-out method, and net realizable value. Inbound shipping costs are included in cost of inventory. We regularly monitor inventory quantities on hand and record write-downs for excess and obsolete inventories based on our estimate of demand for our products, potential obsolescence of technology, product life cycles, and whether pricing trends or forecasts indicate that the carrying value of inventory exceeds its estimated selling price. These factors are impacted by market and economic conditions, technology changes, and new product introductions and require estimates that may include elements that are uncertain. Actual demand may differ from forecasted demand and may have a material effect on gross margins. If inventory is written down, a new cost basis is established that cannot be increased in future periods. Shipments from suppliers or contract manufacturers before we receive them are recorded as in-transit inventory when title and the significant risks and rewards of ownership have passed to us.
Internal-Use Software Development Costs
We capitalize costs related to computer software developed or obtained for internal-use in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 350-40, Internal-Use Software. Software developed or obtained for internal-use includes certain costs for the development of our subscription and cloud-based offerings sold to our customers, as well as enterprise-level business and finance software that we customize to meet our specific operational needs. Costs incurred in the application development phase are capitalized and amortized over their useful lives, which is generally five years. Costs recognized in the preliminary project phase and the post-implementation phase are expensed as incurred.
External-Use Software Development Costs
We capitalize certain software development costs in accordance with ASC 985-20, Costs of Software to Be Sold, Leased, or Marketed, under which those costs incurred subsequent to the establishment of technological feasibility may be capitalized and amortized over the estimated lives of the related products. We establish technological feasibility when we complete a detail program design or a working model. We amortize development costs over the estimated lives of the related products, which is generally five years. All development costs prior to the completion of a detail program design or a working model are recognized as research and development expense.
Lessee Leases
We determine if an arrangement is or contains a lease at inception. Operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most of our lease contracts do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of the lease payments. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. We do not recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for leases with an initial term of twelve months or less. We elected the practical expedient to not separate lease components from nonlease components and applied that practical expedient to all material classes of leased assets.
Many of our operating leases include an option to extend the lease. The specific terms and conditions of the extension options vary from lease to lease, but are consistent with standard industry practices in each area that we operate. We review each of our lease options at a time required by the terms of the lease contract, and notify the lessor if we choose to exercise the lease renewal option. Until we are reasonably certain that we will extend the lease contract, the renewal option periods will not be recognized as right-of-use assets or lease liabilities.
Certain leases include provisions for early termination, which allow the contract parties to terminate their obligations under the lease contract. The terms and conditions of the termination options vary by contract. When we have made a decision to exercise an early termination option, the right-of-use assets and associated lease liabilities are remeasured in accordance with the present value of the remaining cash flows under the lease contract.
Certain building lease agreements include rental payments subject to change annually based on fluctuations in various indexes (i.e., Consumer Price Index (“CPI”), Retail Price Index, and other international indexes). Certain data center lease agreements include rental payments subject to change based on usage and CPI fluctuations. The changes based on usage and indexes are treated as variable lease costs and recognized in the period in which the obligation for those payments was incurred.
Business Combinations
We use the acquisition method of accounting under ASC 805, Business Combinations. Each acquired company’s operating results are included in our Consolidated Financial Statements starting on the acquisition date. The purchase price is equivalent to the fair value of consideration transferred. Tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date are recorded at the acquisition date fair value. Goodwill is recognized for the excess of purchase price over the net fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed.
Amounts allocated to assets and liabilities are based upon fair values. Such valuations require management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially with respect to the identifiable intangible assets. Management makes estimates of fair value based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable and that of a market participant. These estimates are based on available historical information as well as future expectations, and the estimates are inherently uncertain. The separately identifiable intangible assets generally include customer relationships, acquired technology, backlog, trade names, and non-compete agreements.
Goodwill and Acquired Intangible Assets
Goodwill
We assess goodwill for impairment on an annual basis on the first day of the fourth quarter of each year at the reporting unit level. This assessment is also performed whenever there is a change in circumstances that indicates the carrying value of goodwill may be impaired. We have one reporting unit, which is the same as our operating segment. A qualitative assessment is initially made to determine whether it is necessary to perform quantitative testing. A qualitative assessment includes, among others, consideration of: (i) past, current, and projected future earnings and equity; (ii) recent trends and market conditions; and (iii) valuation metrics involving similar companies that are publicly-traded and acquisitions of similar companies, if available. If this qualitative assessment indicates that it is more likely than not that impairment exists, or if we decide to bypass this option, we proceed to the quantitative assessment. The quantitative assessment involves a comparison
between the estimated fair value of our reporting unit with its carrying amount including goodwill. If the carrying value exceeds estimated fair value, we will record an impairment charge based on that difference. The impairment charge will be limited to the amount of goodwill.
To determine the reporting unit’s fair value under the quantitative approach, we use a combination of income and market approaches, such as estimated discounted future cash flows of the reporting unit, multiples of earnings or revenues, and analysis of recent sales or offerings of comparable entities. We also consider our market capitalization on the date of the analysis to ensure the reasonableness of our reporting unit’s fair value.
Intangible Assets
In connection with our acquisitions, we generally recognize assets for customer relationships, acquired technology, backlog, trade names, and non-compete agreements. Intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortization. Such amortization is provided on a straight-line basis or on an accelerated basis based on a pattern of economic benefit that is expected to be obtained over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. Amortization for acquired technology and backlog is recognized in cost of revenues, and amortization for customer relationships, trade names, non-compete agreements, and patents is recognized in selling, general, and administrative expenses.
We assess the impairment of identifiable intangible assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an asset’s carrying amount may not be recoverable. Recoverability of an asset is measured by the comparison of the carrying amount to the sum of the undiscounted estimated future cash flows the asset is expected to generate, offset by estimated future costs to dispose of the product to which the asset relates. If an asset is considered to be impaired, the amount of such impairment would be measured as the difference between the carrying amount of the asset and its fair value. Our cash flow assumptions are based on historical and forecasted future revenue, operating costs, and other relevant factors. Assumptions and estimates about the remaining useful lives of our intangible assets are subjective and are affected by changes to our business strategies. If management’s estimates of future operating results change, or if there are changes to other assumptions, the estimate of the fair value of our assets could change significantly. Such change could result in impairment charges in future periods, which could have a significant impact on our operating results and financial condition.
Valuation of Share-Based Compensation
We account for share-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Stock Compensation. We recognize compensation expense related to share-based compensation based on the grant date estimated fair value.
The fair value of stock options (“options”) on the grant date is estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, which requires the following inputs: expected life, expected volatility, risk-free interest rate, expected dividend yield rate, exercise price, and closing price of our common stock on the date of grant. The expected volatility is based on a combination of historical and market-based implied volatility, and the expected life of the awards is based on our historical experience of employee stock option exercises, including forfeitures. Expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period.
The fair value of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and restricted stock awards (“RSAs”) is based on the stock price on the grant date. The RSUs and RSAs are subject to a service vesting condition and are recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period.
The fair value of performance-based stock unit awards (“PSUs”) with service and market conditions is estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation model applying a multiple awards approach. Expense is recognized when it is probable that the performance condition will be met using the accelerated attribution method over the requisite service period.
Forfeiture rates are estimated based on our historical experience with equity awards that were granted and forfeited prior to vesting. The valuation assumptions used in estimating the fair value of employee share-based awards may change in future periods.
Accounting for Income Taxes
We record an income tax provision for (benefit from) the anticipated tax consequences of the reported results of operations. In accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes, the provision for (benefit from) income taxes is computed using the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined on the basis of the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and for operating losses and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates in effect for the periods in which those tax assets and liabilities are expected to be realized or settled. In the event that these tax rates change, we will incur a benefit or detriment on our income tax expense in the period of enactment. If we were to
determine that all or part of the net deferred tax assets are not realizable in the future, we will record a valuation allowance that would be charged to earnings in the period such determination is made.
In accordance with ASC 740, we recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such positions are then measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The calculation of tax liabilities involves significant judgment in estimating the impact of uncertainties in the application of ASC 740 and complex tax laws. Resolution of these uncertainties in a manner inconsistent with management’s expectations could have a material impact on our financial condition and operating results.

Product revenues represented 62% and 70% of total revenues for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Product revenues decreased by $194.7 million, primarily due to lower volumes from our automated dispensing systems business primarily as a result of ongoing health systems’ capital budget and labor constraints, partially offset by an increase of $9.7 million in revenues from consumables.
Services and other revenues represented 38% and 30% of total revenues for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Services and other revenues include revenues from technical services and Advanced Services offerings. Services and other revenues increased by $45.8 million, primarily due to an increase of $26.7 million in Advanced Services revenues due to continued customer demand and an increase of $19.1 million in technical services revenues as a result of growth in our installed customer base as well as the impact of pricing actions.
Our international sales represented 12% and 10% of total revenues for both of the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and are expected to be affected by foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. We are unable to predict the extent to which revenues in future periods will be impacted by changes in foreign currency exchange rates.
Our ability to grow revenues is dependent on our ability to continue to obtain orders from customers, which may be dependent upon customers’ capital equipment budgets and/or capital equipment approval cycles, our ability to produce quality products and consumables to fulfill customer demand, the volume of installations we are able to complete, our ability to meet customer needs by providing a quality installation experience, our ability to develop new or enhance existing solutions, and our flexibility in workforce allocations among customers to complete installations on a timely basis. The timing of our product revenues for equipment is primarily dependent on when our customers’ schedules and/or staffing levels allow for installations.
Cost of Revenues and Gross Profit
Cost of revenues is primarily comprised of three general categories: (i) standard product costs which account for the majority of the product cost of revenues that are provided to customers, and are inclusive of purchased material, labor to build the product, and overhead costs associated with production; (ii) costs of providing services and installation costs, including costs of personnel and other expenses; and (iii) other costs, including variances in standard costs and overhead, scrap costs, rework, provisions for excess and obsolete inventory, and amortization of software development costs and intangibles.

Cost of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to the year ended December 31, 2022 decreased by $56.7 million, primarily driven by a $79.5 million decrease in cost of product revenues, partially offset by a $22.8 million increase in cost of services and other revenues.
The decrease in cost of product revenues was primarily driven by the decrease in product revenues of $194.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to the year ended December 31, 2022. The decrease in cost of product revenues has not decreased proportionally with the decrease in product revenues for the year ended December 31, 2023, primarily due to certain fixed costs, such as labor and overhead. In addition, the decrease in cost of product revenues was also driven by lower inventory-related costs as pricing for semiconductors, steel, freight, and other costs has decreased from the prior period, as well as the impact from restructuring activities. The increase in cost of services and other revenues was primarily driven by the increase in services and other revenues of $45.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to the year ended December 31, 2022.
The overall decrease in gross margin primarily relates to lower product revenues for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to the year ended December 31, 2022 whereas the decrease in cost of product revenues has not decreased proportionally with the decrease in product revenues, primarily due to certain fixed costs, such as labor and overhead. The decrease is partially offset by lower inventory-related costs and the impact from restructuring activities. Our gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2023 was $496.8 million, as compared to $589.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Research and Development. Research and development expenses decreased by $7.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to the year ended December 31, 2022. The decrease was primarily attributed to a decrease of $5.4 million in consulting expenses, a decrease in employee-related expenses of $4.8 million, and other decreases from cost saving initiatives, partially offset by an increase of $4.3 million due to the timing of capitalized software projects.
Selling, General, and Administrative. Selling, general, and administrative expenses decreased by $51.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to the year ended December 31, 2022. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease
of $21.9 million in employee-related expenses, including the impact of restructuring activities, a decrease of $9.8 million in consulting expenses, a decrease of $7.3 million in commissions expenses, a decrease of $6.0 million in freight out, and a decrease of $4.8 million in travel expenses. The decrease is also driven by a decrease of $2.8 million of ransomware-related expenses, net of insurance recoveries, related to the ransomware incident we experienced in May 2022. The decrease is partially offset by an increase of $2.2 million in executive transition costs incurred during the year ended December 31, 2023, and an impairment of certain long-lived assets of $1.0 million during the year ended December 31, 2023.
Interest and Other Income (Expense), Net. Interest and other income (expense), net, changed by $14.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to the year ended December 31, 2022, primarily driven by a $14.6 million increase in other income. The increase in other income during the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to the year ended December 31, 2022 is primarily attributable to higher interest income received due to higher interest rates and higher cash and cash equivalents balances.

We recorded a provision for income taxes of $0.3 million on a loss before taxes of $20.1 million, which resulted in a negative effective tax rate of 1% for the year ended December 31, 2023, compared to an income tax benefit of $8.1 million on a loss before taxes of $2.5 million, which resulted in an effective tax rate of 330% for the year ended December 31, 2022. The 2023 annual effective tax rate differed from the statutory tax rate of 21%, primarily due to an unfavorable impact of non-deductible equity compensation charges partially offset by a favorable impact of research and development credits, and foreign-derived intangible income (“FDII”) deduction.
Refer to Note 17, Income Taxes, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
We had cash and cash equivalents of $468.0 million at December 31, 2023, compared to $330.4 million at December 31, 2022. All of our cash and cash equivalents are invested in bank accounts and money market funds held in sweep and asset management accounts with financial institutions of high credit quality.

Sources of Cash
Revolving Credit Facility
On November 15, 2019, we entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (as amended, the “Prior A&R Credit Agreement”) with the lenders from time to time party thereto, Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, Citizens Bank, N.A., and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as joint lead arrangers, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent. The Prior A&R Credit Agreement provided for (a) a five-year revolving credit facility of $500.0 million (the “Prior Revolving Credit Facility”) and (b) an uncommitted incremental loan facility of up to $250.0 million (the “Prior Incremental Facility”). In addition, the Prior A&R Credit Agreement included a letter of credit sub-limit of up to $15.0 million and a swing line loan sub-limit of up to $25.0 million.
On September 22, 2020 and March 29, 2023, we entered into amendments to the Prior A&R Credit Agreement to, among other changes, permit the issuance of the convertible senior notes and the purchase of the convertible note hedge
transactions, as described in Note 11, Convertible Senior Notes, expand our flexibility to repurchase our common stock and make other restricted payments, and replace the total net leverage covenant, as well as to remove and replace the interest rate benchmark based on the London interbank offered rate (“LIBOR”) and related LIBOR-based mechanics applicable to borrowings under the A&R Credit Agreement with an interest rate benchmark based on the secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”) as administered by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and related SOFR-based mechanics.
On October 10, 2023, we entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Second A&R Credit Agreement”) with the lenders from time to time party thereto, Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., PNC Capital Markets LLC and TD Securities (USA) LLC as joint lead arrangers and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent. The Second A&R Credit Agreement supersedes the Prior A&R Credit Agreement and provides for (a) a five-year revolving credit facility of $350.0 million (the “Current Revolving Credit Facility”) and (b) an uncommitted incremental loan facility of up to an amount equal to the sum of (i) the greater of $250.0 million and 100% of the adjusted consolidated EBITDA for the last four quarters and (ii) additional amounts subject to pro forma compliance with certain consolidated secured net leverage ratio (the “Current Incremental Facility”). In addition, the Second A&R Credit Agreement includes a letter of credit sub-limit of up to $15.0 million and a swing line loan sub-limit of up to $25.0 million. The Second A&R Credit Agreement has an expiration date of October 10, 2028, subject to acceleration under certain conditions, upon which date all remaining outstanding borrowings will be due and payable.
As of December 31, 2023, we had $350.0 million of funds available under the Current Revolving Credit Facility and as of December 31, 2022, we had $500.0 million of funds available under the Prior Revolving Credit Facility. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, there was no outstanding balance under the Prior or Current Revolving Credit Facility and we were in full compliance with all covenants.
Refer to Note 10, Debt and Credit Agreement, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information. We expect to use future loans under the Current Revolving Credit Facility, if any, for working capital, potential acquisitions, and other general corporate purposes.
Uses of Cash
Our future uses of cash are expected to be primarily for working capital, capital expenditures, and other contractual obligations. We also expect a continued use of cash for potential acquisitions and acquisition-related activities, as well as repurchases of our common stock. In addition, we may also use a portion of our cash, as we consider various options related to our outstanding debt.
The 2016 Repurchase Program has a total of $2.7 million remaining for future repurchases as of December 31, 2023, which may result in additional use of cash. During the year ended December 31, 2022, we repurchased approximately 389,300 shares of our common stock under the repurchase programs at an average price of $134.11 per share for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $52.2 million. There were no stock repurchases during the year ended December 31, 2023. Refer to Note 16, Stock Repurchase Programs, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information.
Based on our current business plan and backlog, we believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents, our anticipated cash flows from operations, cash generated from the exercise of employee stock options and purchases under our Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”), along with the availability of funds under the Current Revolving Credit Facility will be sufficient to meet our cash needs for working capital, capital expenditures, potential acquisitions, and other contractual obligations for at least the next twelve months. For periods beyond the next twelve months, we also anticipate that our net operating cash flows plus existing balances of cash and cash equivalents will suffice to fund the continued growth of our business.

Operating Activities
We expect cash from our operating activities to fluctuate in future periods as a result of a number of factors, including the timing of our billings and collections, our operating results, and the timing of other liability payments.
Net cash provided by operating activities was $181.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, primarily consisting of net loss of $20.4 million adjusted for non-cash items of $157.8 million and changes in assets and liabilities of $43.7 million. The non-cash items primarily consisted of depreciation and amortization expense of $87.3 million, share-based compensation expense of $55.3 million, impairment and abandonment of operating lease right-of-use assets related to facilities of $10.0 million, amortization of operating lease right-of-use assets of $8.2 million, amortization of debt issuance costs of $4.4 million, and a change in deferred income taxes of $11.0 million. Changes in assets and liabilities include cash inflows from (i) a decrease in accounts receivable and unbilled receivables of $49.2 million primarily due to the timing of billings, shipments, and collections, as well as the impacts of lower revenues, (ii) a decrease in inventories of $38.0 million primarily due to management of inventory levels to align with the current forecasted demand, (iii) an increase in deferred revenues of $24.1 million primarily due to an increase in billings for certain technical service and Advanced Service offerings, (iv) a decrease in prepaid commissions of $7.1 million, (v) a decrease in other long-term assets of $2.1 million, and (vi) a decrease in prepaid expenses of $1.1 million. These cash inflows were partially offset by (i) a decrease in accrued compensation of $21.5 million primarily due to a decrease in the accrual for restructuring initiatives, lower commissions, as well as timing of ESPP purchases, (ii) a decrease in accounts payables of $17.5 million primarily due to an overall decrease in spending, as well as timing of payments, (iii) a decrease in operating lease liabilities of $10.9 million, (iv) an increase in investment in sales-type leases of $10.4 million primarily due to the acceptance of certain Advanced Services products under sales-type lease arrangements, (v) a decrease in accrued liabilities of $10.3 million, and (vi) an increase in other current assets of $6.8 million.
Net cash provided by operating activities was $77.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, primarily consisting of net income of $5.6 million adjusted for non-cash items of $145.6 million, offset by changes in assets and liabilities of $73.5 million. The non-cash items primarily consisted of depreciation and amortization expense of $86.9 million, share-based compensation expense of $68.2 million, amortization of operating lease right-of-use assets of $12.2 million, impairment and abandonment of operating lease right-of-use assets related to facilities of $9.4 million, amortization of debt issuance costs of $4.2 million, and a change in deferred income taxes of $37.3 million. Changes in assets and liabilities include cash outflows from (i) an increase in accounts receivable and unbilled receivables of $60.4 million primarily due to an increase in billings driven by overall business growth and the timing of shipments as well as collections, (ii) an increase in inventories of $30.1 million primarily to support forecasted sales, including advanced purchases of certain components, such as semiconductors, as well as higher costs of inventory and timing of shipments, (iii) an increase in investment in sales-type leases of $15.4 million primarily due to the increase in sales-type lease revenues associated with certain Advanced Services products, (iv) a decrease in operating lease liabilities of $13.8 million, (v) a decrease in accounts payables of $7.8 million primarily due to an overall decrease in spending during the fourth quarter of 2022, including inventory spending, as well as timing of payments, and (vi) an increase in prepaid expenses of $4.7 million. These cash outflows were partially offset by (i) an increase in deferred revenues of $24.5 million primarily due to an increase in billings for certain service and subscription offerings, (ii) an increase in accrued liabilities of $16.7 million primarily due to an increase in taxes payable and an increase in general liabilities, (iii) a decrease in other current assets of $6.4 million, (iv) a decrease in other long-term assets of $5.0 million, (v) a decrease in prepaid commissions of $4.3 million, and (vi) an increase in accrued compensation of $2.4 million.

Net cash used in financing activities was $21.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, primarily due to $52.2 million for repurchases of our stock and $13.5 million in employees’ taxes paid related to restricted stock unit vesting, partially offset by $40.2 million in proceeds from employee stock option exercises and ESPP purchases and a net change in the customer funds balances of $4.6 million.

_________________________________________________
(1)Commitments under operating leases relate primarily to leased office buildings, data centers, office equipment, and vehicles. Refer to Note 13, Lessee Leases, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information.
(2)We purchase components from a variety of suppliers and use contract manufacturers to provide manufacturing services for our products. During the normal course of business, we issue purchase orders with estimates of our requirements several months ahead of the delivery dates. These amounts are associated with agreements that are enforceable and legally binding. The amounts under such contracts are included in the table above because we believe that cancellation of these contracts is unlikely and we expect to make future cash payments according to the contract terms or in similar amounts for similar materials.
(3)We issued convertible senior notes in September 2020 that are due in September 2025. The obligations presented above include both principal and interest for these notes. Although these notes mature in 2025, they may be converted into cash and shares of our common stock prior to maturity if certain conditions are met. Any conversion prior to maturity can result in repayment of the principal amounts sooner than the scheduled repayment as indicated in the table above. Refer to Note 11, Convertible Senior Notes, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information.
(4)Refer to Note 14, Commitments and Contingencies, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information.
ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are exposed to market risks related to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates.
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
We operate in foreign countries which expose us to market risk associated with foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations between the U.S. dollar and various foreign currencies, the most significant of which are the British Pound and the Euro. In order to manage foreign currency risk, at times we enter into foreign exchange forward contracts to mitigate risks
associated with changes in spot exchange rates of mainly non-functional currency denominated assets or liabilities of our foreign subsidiaries. In general, the market risk related to these contracts is offset by corresponding gains and losses on the hedged transactions. By working only with major banks and closely monitoring current market conditions, we seek to limit the risk that counterparties to these contracts may be unable to perform. We do not enter into derivative contracts for trading purposes. As of December 31, 2023, we did not have any outstanding foreign exchange forward contracts.
Interest Rate Fluctuation Risk
We are exposed to interest rate risk through our borrowing activities. As of December 31, 2023, there was no outstanding balance under the Current A&R Credit Agreement, and the net carrying amount under our convertible senior notes was $569.7 million. Although our convertible senior notes are based on a fixed rate, changes in interest rates could impact the fair value of such notes. As of December 31, 2023, the fair market value of our convertible senior notes was $527.2 million. Refer to Note 5, Fair Value of Financial Instruments, and Note 11, Convertible Senior Notes, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information.
We have used, and in the future we may use, interest rate swap agreements to protect against adverse fluctuations in interest rates by reducing our exposure to variability in cash flows relating to interest payments on a portion of our outstanding debt. We do not hold or issue any derivative financial instruments for speculative trading purposes. As of December 31, 2023, we did not have any outstanding interest rate swap agreements.
ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA
The Report of Independent Auditors and Consolidated Financial Statements are included in Item 15 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K beginning on page F-1 and are incorporated herein by reference.
ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.
Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2023 to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our internal control system is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations and can provide only reasonable assurance that the objectives of the internal control system are met.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023 using the criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting as described in “Internal Control—Integrated Framework,” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework) (the COSO Criteria). Based on this assessment, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2023.
Deloitte & Touche LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, has issued its attestation report on our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023, which is included in Part IV, Item 15 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting during the year ended December 31, 2023.
ITEM 9B. OTHER INFORMATION
Securities Trading Plans of Directors and Officers
During the three months ended December 31, 2023, none of our directors or officers adopted or terminated a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan or adopted or terminated a non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement (as each term is defined in Item 408(a) of Regulation S-K).

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Stockholders and the Board of Directors of Omnicell, Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Omnicell, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), stockholders’ equity, and cash flows, for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2023, and the related notes and the schedule listed in the Index at Item 15 (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2023, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated February 28, 2024, expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.
Inventory Valuation — Refer to Note 1 to the financial statements
Critical Audit Matter Description
The Company records write-downs for excess and slow-moving inventory based on the Company’s estimate of demand for its products, potential obsolescence of technology, product life cycles, and whether pricing trends or forecasts indicate that the carrying value of inventory exceeds its estimated selling price. These estimates require management judgment and are impacted by market and economic conditions, technology changes, and new product introductions. The Company’s consolidated inventory balance is $110.1 million as of December 31, 2023.
We identified the inventory valuation as a critical audit matter because of the assumptions and judgments made by management to estimate the excess and slow-moving inventory, especially considering the presence of inventory with evolving product life cycles. The analysis of equipment-related inventory valuation required a high degree of auditor judgment when performing audit procedures to evaluate qualitative and quantitative factors considered and the reasonableness of the relevant management assumptions and judgments.
How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit
Our audit procedures over the inventory valuation included the following, among others:
• We tested the effectiveness of internal controls over inventory for valuation.
• We evaluated the appropriateness of management’s method, assumptions, and judgments used in developing their estimate of the excess and slow-moving equipment-related inventory, which included consideration of demand for its products, potential obsolescence of technology, and product life cycles.
• We tested certain underlying data used and considered in the excess and obsolete equipment-related inventory assessment, including the amount of inventory on hand and forecasted demand.
• We compared actual equipment-related inventory usage and write-off activity in the current year to the excess and obsolete estimates by management of individual equipment-related inventory items selected for testing in the prior year to evaluate management’s ability to make reasonably accurate estimates.
• We evaluated the valuation of excess and obsolete equipment-related inventory for understatement by making selections of equipment-related individual inventory items and evaluating the appropriateness of the equipment-related inventory valuation and management judgments based on relevant product-specific information. These procedures also included certain inquiries of purchasing employees.
Capitalized Software - Internal Software Development Costs — Refer to Notes 1 and 7 to the financial statements
Critical Audit Matter Description
The Company capitalizes certain costs related to computer software developed or obtained for internal use when costs are incurred in the application development phase and amortizes these costs over the estimated lives of the software. The determination of whether a project’s software development costs are capitalized or expensed could have a significant impact on the financial statements. The Company capitalized $32.2 million of costs related to the application development of enterprise-level software and its subscription and cloud-based offerings in the year ended December 31, 2023.
We identified management’s determination of internal use capitalized software development costs to be a critical audit matter. Evaluating the Company’s determination of the project and related software development activities to be capitalized under relevant accounting guidance, including the extent to which software development costs incurred were capitalized, required subjective auditor judgment.
How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit
Our audit procedures to assess the appropriateness of capitalized internal software development costs included the following, among others:
• We tested the effectiveness of internal controls related to management’s capitalized internal software development costs.
• We obtained an understanding of management’s process for evaluating internal software development costs and the nature of internal software development costs capitalized.
• We tested management’s method of calculating capitalized internal software development costs. For a sample of projects, we performed audit procedures to agree capitalized labor costs to time records and made certain inquiries of project members to further assess the reasonableness of time allocated to the selected projects.
• For a sample of internal software development projects, we obtained an understanding of the new software enhancements and features planned for development by reviewing management’s project documentation and inquiring of project managers and engineers.
• For a sample of internal software development projects, we tested the timing of internal software development cost recognition as either a capitalized or an expensed development cost. We also inquired of project managers and engineers regarding when application development was reached and observed the new features developed.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the stockholders and the Board of Directors of Omnicell, Inc.
Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of Omnicell, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2023, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by COSO.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023, of the Company and our report dated February 28, 2024, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.
Basis for Opinion
The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Business
Omnicell, Inc. was incorporated in California in 1992 under the name Omnicell Technologies, Inc. and reincorporated in Delaware in 2001 as Omnicell, Inc. The Company’s major products and related services are medication management solutions and adherence tools for healthcare systems and pharmacies, which are sold in its principal market, the healthcare industry. The Company’s market is primarily located in the United States and Europe. “Omnicell” or the “Company” refer to Omnicell, Inc. and its subsidiaries, collectively.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) and include all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented.
Principles of Consolidation
The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. These estimates are based on historical experience and various other assumptions that management believes to be reasonable. Although these estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of current events and actions that may impact the Company in the future, actual results may be different from the estimates. The Company’s critical accounting policies are those that affect its financial statements materially and involve difficult, subjective, or complex judgments by management. Those policies are revenue recognition; allowance for credit losses for accounts receivable and unbilled receivables; notes receivable from investment in sales-type leases; operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities; inventory valuation; internal-use and external-use software development costs; impairment of goodwill; purchased intangibles and long-lived assets; fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations; share-based compensation; and accounting for income taxes. As of December 31, 2023, the Company is not aware of any events or circumstances that would require an update to its estimates, judgments, or revisions to the carrying value of its assets or liabilities.
Segment Reporting
The Company manages its operations as a single segment for the purposes of assessing performance and making operating decisions. The Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) is its Chief Executive Officer. The CODM allocates resources and evaluates the performance of the Company at the consolidated level using information about its revenues, gross profit, income from operations, and other key financial data. All significant operating decisions are based upon an analysis of the Company as one operating segment, which is the same as its reporting segment.
Foreign Currency Translation and Remeasurement
Most of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries use the local currency of their respective countries as their functional currency. The Company translates the assets and liabilities of such non-U.S. dollar functional currency subsidiaries into U.S. dollars using exchange rates in effect at the end of each period. Revenue and expenses for these subsidiaries are translated using rates that approximate those in effect during the period. Gains and losses from these translations are recorded as foreign currency translation adjustments and included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in stockholders’ equity.
Assets and liabilities denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are remeasured into the respective entity’s functional currency. Monetary assets and liabilities are remeasured at exchange rates in effect at the end of each period, and non-monetary assets and liabilities are remeasured at historical rates. Gains and losses from foreign currency remeasurement of monetary assets and liabilities are recorded in interest and other income (expense), net.
Revenue Recognition
The Company earns revenues from sales of its products and related services, which are sold in the healthcare industry, its principal market. The Company’s customer arrangements typically include one or more of the following revenue categories:
Connected devices, software licenses, and other. Software-enabled connected devices and software licenses that manage and regulate the storage and dispensing of pharmaceuticals, consumables blister cards, and packaging equipment and other supplies. This revenue category is often sold through long-term, sole-source agreements. Solutions in this category include, but are not limited to, XT Series automated dispensing systems and products related to the Central Pharmacy Dispensing Service and IV Compounding Service.
Consumables. Medication adherence packaging, labeling, and other one-time use packaging including multimed adherence packaging and single dose blister cards, which are used by retail, community, and outpatient pharmacies, as well as by institutional pharmacies serving long-term care and other sites outside the acute care hospital, are designed to improve patient engagement and adherence to prescriptions.
Technical services. Post-installation technical support and other related services, including phone support, on-site service, parts, and access to unspecified software updates and enhancements, if and when available. This revenue category is often supported by multi-year or annual contractual agreements.
Advanced Services. Emerging software and service solutions which are offered on a subscription basis with fees typically based either on transaction volume or a fee over a specified period of time. Solutions in this category include, but are not limited to, EnlivenHealth®, Specialty Pharmacy Services, 340B solutions, Inventory Optimization Service, other software solutions, and services related to the Central Pharmacy Dispensing Service and IV Compounding Service.
The following table summarizes revenue recognition for each revenue category:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Revenue Category | | | | Timing of Revenue Recognition | | Income Statement Classification |
| Connected devices, software licenses, and other | | | | Point in time, as transfer of control occurs, generally upon installation and acceptance by the customer | | Product |
| Consumables | | | | Point in time, as transfer of control occurs, generally upon shipment to or receipt by customer | | Product |
| Technical services | | | | Over time, as services are provided, typically ratably over the service term | | Service |
| Advanced Services | | | | Over time, as services are provided | | Service |
Prior to recognizing revenue, the Company identifies the contract, performance obligations, and transaction price, and allocates the transaction price to the performance obligations. All identified contracts meet the following required criteria:
Parties to the contract have approved the contract (in writing, orally, or in accordance with other customary business practices) and are committed to perform their respective obligations. A majority of the Company’s contracts are evidenced by a non-cancelable written agreement. Contracts for consumable products are generally evidenced by an order placed via our online portal, phone, or a purchase order.
Entity can identify each party’s rights regarding the goods or services to be transferred. Contract terms are documented within the written agreements. Where a written contract does not exist, such as for consumable products, the rights of each party are understood as following the Company’s standard business process and terms.
The entity can identify the payment terms for the goods or services to be transferred. Payment terms are documented within the agreement and are generally net 30 to 60 days from shipment of tangible product or services performed for customers in the United States. Where a written contract does not exist, the Company’s standard payment terms are net 30 day terms.
The contract has commercial substance (that is the risk, timing, or amount of the entity’s future cash flows is expected to change as a result of the contract). The Company’s agreements are an exchange of cash for a combination of products and services which result in changes in the amount of the Company’s future cash flows.
It is probable the entity will collect the consideration to which it will be entitled in exchange for the goods or services that will be transferred to the customer. The Company performs a credit check for all significant customers or
transactions and where collectability is not probable, payment in full or a substantial down payment prior to shipment is typically required to help ensure the full agreed upon contract price will be collected.
Distinct goods or services are identified as performance obligations. A series of distinct goods or services that are substantially the same and that have the same pattern of transfer to the customer are considered a single performance obligation. Where a good or service is determined not to be distinct, the Company combines the good or service with other promised goods or services until a bundle of goods or services that is distinct is identified. To identify its performance obligations, the Company considers all products or services promised in the contract regardless of whether they are explicitly stated or are implied by customary business practices. When performance obligations are included in separate contracts, the Company considers an entire customer arrangement to determine if separate contracts should be considered combined for the purposes of revenue recognition. Most of the Company’s sales, other than renewals of support and maintenance, contain multiple performance obligations, with a combination of hardware systems, software products, support and maintenance, and professional services.
The transaction price of a contract is determined based on the fixed consideration, net of an estimate for variable consideration such as various discounts or rebates provided to customers. As a result of the Company’s commercial selling practices, contract prices are generally fixed with minimal, if any, variable consideration.
The transaction price is allocated to separate performance obligations proportionally based on the standalone selling price of each performance obligation. Standalone selling price is best evidenced by the price the Company charges for the good or service when selling it separately in similar circumstances to similar customers. Other than for the renewal of annual technical services contracts, the Company’s products and services are not generally sold separately. The Company uses an amount discounted from the list price as a best estimated selling price.
The Company recognizes revenue when the performance obligation has been satisfied by transferring a promised good or service to a customer. The good or service is transferred when or as the customer obtains control of the good or service. Determining when control transfers requires management to make judgments that affect the timing of revenues recognized. Generally, for products requiring a complex implementation, control passes when the product is installed and ready for use. For all other products, control generally passes when product has been shipped and title has passed. For maintenance contracts and certain other services, including Advanced Services provided on a subscription basis, control passes to the customer over time, generally ratably over the service term as the Company provides a stand-ready service for the customer’s equipment. Time and material services transfer control to the customer at the time the services are provided.
The portion of the transaction price allocated to the Company’s unsatisfied performance obligations for which invoicing has occurred is recorded as deferred revenues, net of deferred cost of goods sold. Deferred revenues from product sales primarily relate to delivered and invoiced products, pending installation and acceptance. Deferred revenues from service contracts primarily relate to services that have been invoiced, where services have not yet been provided. Short-term deferred revenues are expected to be recognized within the next twelve months. Long-term deferred revenues substantially consist of deferred revenues on long-term technical and Advanced Services contracts which have been invoiced and are expected to be recognized as revenue beyond twelve months, generally not more than ten years.
In addition, the Company has remaining performance obligations associated with contracts for which the associated products have been accepted or associated services have started, but where invoicing has not yet occurred and therefore are not reflected in deferred revenue. These remaining performance obligations are comprised of the non-variable portions of technical services and Advanced Services provided under non-cancellable contracts with minimum commitments. Remaining performance obligations which are not included in deferred revenues are $353.9 million as of December 31, 2023. Remaining performance obligations are expected to be recognized ratably over the remaining terms of the associated contracts, which terms vary but are generally not more than ten years. Remaining performance obligations do not include product obligations, services where the associated product has not been accepted, services which have not yet started, variable portions of services, and certain other obligations.
Revenues, contract assets, and contract liabilities are recorded net of associated taxes.
The Company generally invoices customers for products upon shipment. Invoicing associated with the service portion of agreements is generally periodic and is billed on a monthly, quarterly, or annual basis, and in certain circumstances, multiple years are billed at one time. Advanced Services agreements are generally invoiced periodically on a monthly, quarterly or annual basis over the life of the agreement. In certain circumstances portions of these agreements may be invoiced lump sum.
The amount invoiced for equipment and software is typically reflected in both accounts receivable and deferred revenues, net. The Company typically recognizes product revenue, and correspondingly reduces deferred revenues, net, for equipment and on-premise software upon written customer acceptance of installation. Consumables are recorded as revenue upon shipment to or receipt by the customer, depending upon contract terms.
From time to time, the Company enters into change orders which modify the product to be received by the customer pursuant to certain contracts. Changes to any contract are accounted for as a modification of the existing contract to the extent the goods and services to be delivered as part of the contract are generally consistent with the nature and type of those to be provided under the terms of the original contract. Examples of such change orders include the addition or removal of units of equipment or changes to the configuration of the equipment where the overall nature of the contract remains intact. The Company’s change orders generally result in the change being accounted for as modifications of existing contracts given the nature of the impacted orders.
In the normal course of business, the Company typically does not accept product returns unless the item is defective as manufactured or the configuration of the product is incorrect. The Company establishes provisions for estimated returns based on historical product returns. The allowance for sales returns is not material to the Consolidated Financial Statements for any periods presented.
A portion of the Company’s sales are made to customers who are members of Group Purchasing Organizations (“GPOs”), each of which functions as a purchasing agent on behalf of member hospitals and other healthcare providers. The Company also has a Federal Supply Schedule Contract with the Department of Veterans Affairs (the “GSA Contract”), allowing the Department of Veterans Affairs, the Department of Defense, and other federal government customers to purchase the Company’s products. Pursuant to the terms of GPO agreements and the GSA Contract, each member or agency contracts directly with Omnicell and can purchase the Company’s products at pre-negotiated contract terms and pricing. GPOs are often fully or partially owned by the Company’s customers, and the Company pays fees to the GPO on completed contracts. The Company also pays the Industrial Funding Fee (“IFF”) to the Department of Veterans Affairs under the GSA Contract. The Company considers these fees consideration paid to customers and records them as reductions to revenue. Fees to GPOs and the IFF were $11.2 million, $17.6 million, and $17.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021, respectively. The accounts receivable balances are with individual members of the GPOs and federal agencies that purchase under the GSA Contract, and therefore no significant concentration of credit risk exists. During the year ended December 31, 2023, sales to members of the ten largest GPOs and federal agencies that purchase under the GSA Contract accounted for approximately 64% of the Company’s total consolidated revenues.
Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities
A contract asset is a right to consideration in exchange for goods or services that the Company has transferred to a customer when that right is conditioned on something other than the passage of time. A receivable will be recorded on the balance sheet when the Company has unconditional rights to consideration. A contract liability is an obligation to transfer goods or services for which the Company has received consideration, or for which an amount of consideration is due from the customer. Contract liabilities include customer deposits under non-cancelable contracts, and current and non-current deferred revenue balances. The Company’s contract balances are reported in a net contract asset or liability position on a contract-by-contract basis at the end of each reporting period.
Significant changes in the contract assets and the contract liabilities balances during the period are the result of the issuance of invoices and recognition of deferred revenues in the normal course of business. The contract modifications entered into during the year ended December 31, 2023 did not have a significant impact on the Company’s contract assets or deferred revenues.
Contract Costs
The Company has determined that certain incentive portions of its sales commission plans require capitalization since these payments are directly related to sales achieved during a time period. These commissions are earned on the basis of: (i) the value of new bookings for connected devices, software products, and Advanced Services, provided that for Advanced Services a commission will only be paid on the amount that represents the minimum commitment and (ii) the value of new orders for consumables. Since there are no commensurate commissions earned on renewal of the service bookings, the Company concluded that the capitalized asset is related to services provided under both the initial contract and renewal periods. The Company applies a practical expedient to account for the incremental costs of obtaining a contract as part of a portfolio of contracts with similar characteristics as the Company expects the effect on the financial statements of applying the practical expedient would not differ materially from applying the accounting guidance to the individual contracts within the portfolio. A pool of contracts is defined as all contracts booked in a particular quarter. The amortization for the capitalized asset is an estimate of the pool’s original contract term, generally one to five years, plus an estimate of future customer renewal periods resulting in a total amortization period of ten years. Costs to obtain a contract are allocated amongst performance obligations and recognized as sales and marketing expense consistent with the pattern of revenue recognition. In accordance with GAAP, while certain compensation elements are expensed as incurred, a portion of the pool’s capitalized asset is recorded as an expense over the first seven quarters after booking, which represents the estimated period during which the product revenue associated with the contract is recorded. The remaining capitalized contract costs are recorded as expense ratably over the ten
year estimated initial and renewal service periods. The Company recognized contract cost expense of $23.3 million, $30.6 million, and $25.8 million during the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021, respectively. The commission expenses paid or due to be paid as of the consolidated balance sheet date to be recognized in future periods are recorded in long-term prepaid commissions on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Capitalized costs are periodically reviewed for impairment. There was no impairment loss recorded related to capitalized prepaid commissions as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023.
Lessor Leases
The Company determines if an arrangement is or contains a lease at inception. The transaction price is allocated to separate performance obligations, generally consisting of a combination of hardware systems, software products, support and maintenance, and professional services, proportionally based on the standalone selling price of each performance obligation. Standalone selling price is best evidenced by the price the Company charges for the good or service when selling it separately in similar circumstances to similar customers. Other than for the renewal of annual technical services contracts, the Company’s products and services are not generally sold separately. The Company uses an amount discounted from the list price as a best estimated selling price.
Sales-Type Leases
The Company enters into non-cancelable sales-type lease arrangements with the leases varying in length from one to ten years, most of which do not have an option to extend the lease term. At the end of the lease term, the customer must either return the equipment or negotiate a new agreement, resulting in a new purchase or lease transaction. Failure of the customer to either return the equipment or negotiate a new agreement results in the contract becoming a month-to-month rental. Certain sales-type leases automatically renew for successive one-year periods at the end of each lease term without written notice from the customer. The Company’s sales-type lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees.
For sales-type leases, the Company recognizes revenues for its hardware and software products, net of lease execution costs, post-installation product maintenance, professional services associated with Advanced Services offerings, and technical support, at the net present value of the lease payment stream upon customer acceptance. The Company recognizes service revenues associated with sales-type leases ratably over the term of the agreement in service revenues in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company recognizes interest income from sales-type leases using the effective interest method. Both hardware and software revenues, and interest income from sales-types leases are recorded in product revenues in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The Company optimizes cash flows by selling a majority of its sales-type leases, other than those relating to U.S. government hospitals and Advanced Services products, including Central Pharmacy Dispensing Service and IV Compounding Service, to third-party leasing finance companies on a non-recourse basis. The Company has no obligation to the leasing company once the lease has been sold.
Allowance for Credit Losses
The Company is exposed to credit losses primarily through sales of its products and services, as well as its sales-type leasing arrangements. The Company performs credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition in order to assess each customer’s ability to pay. These evaluations require significant judgment and are based on a variety of factors including, but not limited to, current economic trends, payment history, and a financial review of the customer. The Company continues to monitor customers’ creditworthiness on an ongoing basis.
The Company maintains an allowance for credit losses for accounts receivable, unbilled receivables, and net investment in sales-type leases based on expected credit losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. The allowance for credit losses is measured using a loss rate method, considering factors such as customers’ credit risk, historical loss experience, current conditions, and forecasts. The allowance for credit losses is measured on a collective (pool) basis by aggregating customer balances with similar risk characteristics. The Company also records a specific allowance based on an analysis of individual past due balances or customer-specific information, such as a decline in creditworthiness or bankruptcy. Actual collection losses may differ from management’s estimates, and such differences could be material to the Company’s financial position and results of operations.
The allowance for credit losses is presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as a deduction from the respective asset balance. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the allowance for credit losses for long-term unbilled receivables and net investment in sales-type leases were not material.
Funds Held for Customers and Customer Fund Liabilities
The Company offers certain products and services in which it is customary for pharmacies or insurance payors to owe funds to the Company which are collected on behalf of, and, after a short holding period, disbursed to, the Company’s customers. The Company presents amounts due from pharmacies and amounts due to be disbursed to customers on a gross basis within other current assets and accrued liabilities, respectively, in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, as such amounts are expected to be settled within one year. Generally, any funds received from the pharmacies or insurance payors that are held by the Company are segregated from its other corporate cash accounts. These funds are classified as restricted cash as the Company is contractually obligated to disburse these amounts to customers.
Sales of Accounts Receivable
The Company records the sale of its accounts receivables in accordance with accounting guidance for transfers and servicing of financial assets. The Company transferred non-recourse accounts receivable totaling $5.7 million, $45.3 million, and $46.7 million during the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021, respectively, which approximated fair value, to leasing companies on a non-recourse basis. Accounts receivable balance included approximately $1.1 million and $6.7 million due from third-party leasing companies for transferred non-recourse accounts receivable as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company classifies all highly-liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less as cash equivalents. The Company’s cash and cash equivalent balances include bank accounts and highly-liquid U.S. Government money market funds held in sweep and asset management accounts with financial institutions of high credit quality. The Company continuously monitors the credit worthiness of the financial institutions in which it invests. The Company has not experienced any credit losses from its cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents were $468.0 million and $330.4 million as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, cash equivalents were $451.0 million and $301.0 million, respectively, which consisted of money market funds held in sweep and asset management accounts.
Financial Instruments
For assets and liabilities measured at fair value, the amounts are based on an expected exit price representing the amount that would be received from the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in a transaction between market participants. The fair value may be based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis whereby inputs used in valuation techniques are assigned a hierarchical level, as follows:
Level 1 – Observable inputs, such as quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments;
Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, or quoted prices for identical instruments in inactive markets; and
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs for financial instruments reflecting Company’s assumptions.
Inventory
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, computed using the first-in, first-out method, and net realizable value. Inbound shipping costs are included in cost of inventory. The Company regularly monitors inventory quantities on hand and records write-downs for excess and obsolete inventories based on the Company’s estimate of demand for its products, potential obsolescence of technology, product life cycles, and whether pricing trends or forecasts indicate that the carrying value of inventory exceeds its estimated selling price. These factors are impacted by market and economic conditions, technology changes, and new product introductions and require estimates that may include elements that are uncertain. Actual demand may differ from forecasted demand and may have a material effect on gross margins. If inventory is written down, a new cost basis is established that cannot be increased in future periods. Shipments from suppliers or contract manufacturers before the Company receives them are recorded as in-transit inventory when title and the significant risks and rewards of ownership have passed to the Company.
The Company has a supply agreement with one primary supplier for construction and supply of several sub-assemblies and inventory management of sub-assemblies used in its hardware products. There are no minimum purchase requirements. The
contract with the Company’s supplier may be terminated by either the supplier or by the Company without cause and at any time upon delivery of six months’ notice. Purchases from this supplier were $65.8 million, $105.7 million, and $103.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021, respectively.
Shipping Costs
Outbound freight billed to customers is recorded as product revenue. The related shipping and handling costs are expensed as part of selling, general, and administrative expense. Shipping and handling expenses were $18.6 million, $24.5 million, and $18.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021, respectively.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment less accumulated depreciation are stated at historical cost. The Company’s expenditures for property and equipment are primarily for computer equipment and software used in the administration of its business, and for leasehold improvements to its leased facilities. The Company also develops molds and dies used in long-term manufacturing arrangements with suppliers and for production automation equipment used in the manufacturing of consumable blister card components.
The Company capitalizes costs related to computer software developed or obtained for internal-use in accordance with ASC 350-40, Internal-Use Software. Software developed or obtained for internal-use includes certain costs for the development of the Company’s subscription and cloud-based offerings sold to its customers, as well as enterprise-level business and finance software that the Company customizes to meet its specific operational needs. Costs incurred in the application development phase are capitalized and amortized over their useful lives, which is generally five years. Costs recognized in the preliminary project phase and the post-implementation phase are expensed as incurred. The Company capitalized $32.2 million and $33.0 million of costs related to the application development of enterprise-level software and its subscription and cloud-based offerings, which are included in property and equipment during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Capitalized costs related to computer software developed or obtained for internal-use are included in purchases of property and equipment in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
Depreciation and amortization is computed by use of the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as stated below:
| | | | | |
| Purchased software and internal-use software development costs | 3 - 5 years |
| Leasehold and building improvements | Shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful life |
| Furniture and fixtures | 5 - 7 years |
| Equipment | 2 - 12 years |
External-Use Software Development Costs
The Company capitalizes certain software development costs in accordance with ASC 985-20, Costs of Software to Be Sold, Leased, or Marketed, under which those costs incurred subsequent to the establishment of technological feasibility may be capitalized and amortized over the estimated lives of the related products. The Company establishes technological feasibility when it completes a detail program design or a working model. The Company amortizes development costs over the estimated lives of the related products, which is generally five years. All development costs prior to the completion of a detail program design or a working model are recognized as research and development expense. The Company capitalized external-use software development costs of $14.6 million and $13.2 million, that were included in other long-term assets as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Lessee Leases
The Company determines if an arrangement is or contains a lease at inception. Operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most of its lease contracts do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of the lease payments. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company does not recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for leases with an initial term of twelve months or less. The Company elected the practical expedient to not separate lease components from nonlease components and applied that practical expedient to all material classes of leased assets.
Many of the Company’s operating leases include an option to extend the lease. The specific terms and conditions of the extension options vary from lease to lease, but are consistent with standard industry practices in each area that the Company operates. The Company reviews each of its lease options at a time required by the terms of the lease contract, and notifies the
lessor if it chooses to exercise the lease renewal option. Until the Company is reasonably certain that it will extend the lease contract, the renewal option periods will not be recognized as right-of-use assets or lease liabilities.
Certain leases include provisions for early termination, which allow the contract parties to terminate their obligations under the lease contract. The terms and conditions of the termination options vary by contract. When the Company has made a decision to exercise an early termination option, the right-of-use assets and associated lease liabilities are remeasured in accordance with the present value of the remaining cash flows under the lease contract.
Certain building lease agreements include rental payments subject to change annually based on fluctuations in various indexes (i.e., Consumer Price Index (“CPI”), Retail Price Index, and other international indexes). Certain data center lease agreements include rental payments subject to change based on usage and CPI fluctuations. The changes based on usage and indexes are treated as variable lease costs and recognized in the period in which the obligation for those payments was incurred.
The Company’s operating lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees, restrictions, or restriction covenants.
Business Combinations
The Company uses the acquisition method of accounting under ASC 805, Business Combinations. Each acquired company’s operating results are included in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements starting on the acquisition date. The purchase price is equivalent to the fair value of consideration transferred. Tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date are recorded at the acquisition date fair value. Goodwill is recognized for the excess of purchase price over the net fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed.
Amounts allocated to assets and liabilities are based upon fair values. Such valuations require management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially with respect to the identifiable intangible assets. Management makes estimates of fair value based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable and that of a market participant. These estimates are based on available historical information as well as future expectations, and the estimates are inherently uncertain. The separately identifiable intangible assets generally include customer relationships, acquired technology, backlog, trade names, and non-compete agreements.
Goodwill and Acquired Intangible Assets
Goodwill
The Company assesses goodwill for impairment on an annual basis on the first day of the fourth quarter of each year at the reporting unit level. This assessment is also performed whenever there is a change in circumstances that indicates the carrying value of goodwill may be impaired. The Company has one reporting unit, which is the same as its operating segment. A qualitative assessment is initially made to determine whether it is necessary to perform quantitative testing. A qualitative assessment includes, among others, consideration of: (i) past, current, and projected future earnings and equity; (ii) recent trends and market conditions; and (iii) valuation metrics involving similar companies that are publicly-traded and acquisitions of similar companies, if available. If this qualitative assessment indicates that it is more likely than not that impairment exists, or if the Company decides to bypass this option, it proceeds to the quantitative assessment. The quantitative assessment involves a comparison between the estimated fair value of the Company’s reporting unit with its carrying amount including goodwill. If the carrying value exceeds estimated fair value, the Company will record an impairment charge based on that difference. The impairment charge will be limited to the amount of goodwill.
To determine the reporting unit’s fair value under the quantitative approach, the Company uses a combination of income and market approaches, such as estimated discounted future cash flows of the reporting unit, multiples of earnings or revenues, and analysis of recent sales or offerings of comparable entities. The Company also considers its market capitalization on the date of the analysis to ensure the reasonableness of its reporting unit’s fair value.
The Company elected to perform a quantitative impairment assessment analysis as of October 1, 2023 for its reporting unit. The Company determined that the fair value of the reporting unit exceeded the carrying value and thus no impairment was indicated. Based on the result of this analysis, an impairment does not exist as of December 31, 2023, and there were no accumulated impairment losses.
Intangible Assets
In connection with its acquisitions, the Company generally recognizes assets for customer relationships, acquired technology, backlog, trade names, and non-compete agreements. Intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortization. Such amortization is provided on a straight-line basis or on an accelerated basis based on a pattern of economic benefit that is expected to be obtained over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. Amortization for acquired technology and backlog is recognized in cost of revenues, and amortization for customer relationships, trade names, non-compete agreements, and patents is recognized in selling, general, and administrative expenses.
The Company assesses the impairment of identifiable intangible assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an asset’s carrying amount may not be recoverable. Recoverability of an asset is measured by the comparison of the carrying amount to the sum of the undiscounted estimated future cash flows the asset is expected to generate, offset by estimated future costs to dispose of the product to which the asset relates. If an asset is considered to be impaired, the amount of such impairment would be measured as the difference between the carrying amount of the asset and its fair value. The Company’s cash flow assumptions are based on historical and forecasted future revenue, operating costs, and other relevant factors. Assumptions and estimates about the remaining useful lives of the Company’s intangible assets are subjective and are affected by changes to its business strategies. If management’s estimates of future operating results change, or if there are changes to other assumptions, the estimate of the fair value of the Company’s assets could change significantly. Such change could result in impairment charges in future periods, which could have a significant impact on the Company’s operating results and financial condition. For the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, there were no events or changes in circumstances to indicate that intangible assets carrying amounts may not be recoverable.
Convertible Debt
The Company accounts for convertible debt and related transactions in accordance with ASC 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options, ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity. The Company evaluates convertible debt instruments and related transactions at inception to determine if those contracts or embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives to be separately accounted for.
Prior to the adoption of Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-06, Debt-Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40), convertible debt instruments that could be settled in cash were required to be separated into liability and equity components. The allocation to the liability component was based on the fair value of a similar instrument that did not contain an equity conversion option. Based on this debt-to-equity ratio, debt issuance costs were then allocated to the liability and equity components in a similar manner. The difference between the principal amount of the convertible senior notes and the liability component, inclusive of issuance costs, represented the debt discount, which the Company amortized to interest expense over the term of the convertible senior notes. The determination of the discount rate required certain estimates and assumptions.
Upon adoption of ASU 2020-06, effective January 1, 2022, the convertible senior notes are no longer separated into liability and equity components, and are accounted for as a single liability, measured at amortized cost in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Issuance costs are amortized using the effective interest method over the term of the convertible senior notes.
Convertible note hedge and warrant transactions associated with convertible debt instruments are accounted for as equity instruments, and are recorded in additional paid-in capital in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Valuation of Share-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for share-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Stock Compensation. The Company recognizes compensation expense related to share-based compensation based on the grant date estimated fair value.
The fair value of stock options (“options”) on the grant date is estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, which requires the following inputs: expected life, expected volatility, risk-free interest rate, expected dividend yield rate, exercise price, and closing price of its common stock on the date of grant. The expected volatility is based on a combination of historical and market-based implied volatility, and the expected life of the awards is based on the Company’s historical experience of employee stock option exercises, including forfeitures. Expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period.
The fair value of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and restricted stock awards (“RSAs”) is based on the stock price on the grant date. The RSUs and RSAs are subject to a service vesting condition and are recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period.
The fair value of performance-based stock unit awards (“PSUs”) with service and market conditions is estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation model applying a multiple awards approach. Expense is recognized when it is probable that the performance condition will be met using the accelerated attribution method over the requisite service period.
Forfeiture rates are estimated based on the Company’s historical experience with equity awards that were granted and forfeited prior to vesting. The valuation assumptions used in estimating the fair value of employee share-based awards may change in future periods.
Accounting for Income Taxes
The Company records an income tax provision for (benefit from) the anticipated tax consequences of the reported results of operations. In accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes, the provision for (benefit from) income taxes is computed using the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined on the basis of the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities and for operating losses and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates in effect for the periods in which those tax assets and liabilities are expected to be realized or settled. In the event that these tax rates change, the Company will incur a benefit or detriment on its income tax expense in the period of enactment. If the Company were to determine that all or part of the net deferred tax assets are not realizable in the future, it will record a valuation allowance that would be charged to earnings in the period such determination is made.
In accordance with ASC 740, the Company recognizes the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such positions are then measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The calculation of tax liabilities involves significant judgment in estimating the impact of uncertainties in the application of ASC 740 and complex tax laws. Resolution of these uncertainties in a manner inconsistent with management’s expectations could have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition and operating results.
Recently Adopted Authoritative Guidance
In October 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers. The update addresses diversity in practice by requiring that an acquirer recognize and measure contract assets and liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The Company adopted ASU 2021-08 beginning January 1, 2023 and will apply the guidance prospectively to acquisitions occurring on or after the adoption date.
Recently Issued Authoritative Guidance
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which requires public entities to disclose significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the CODM. Public entities with a single reportable segment are required to apply the disclosure requirements in ASU 2023-07, as well as all existing segment disclosures and reconciliation requirements in ASC 280 on an interim and annual basis. The amendments are effective for the Company’s annual periods beginning January 1, 2024, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning January 1, 2025. Retrospective application is required, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact ASU 2023-07 will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which includes amendments that further enhance income tax disclosures, primarily through standardization and disaggregation of rate reconciliation categories and income taxes paid by jurisdiction. The amendments are effective for the Company’s annual periods beginning January 1, 2025, with early adoption permitted, and should be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the impact ASU 2023-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements.
There was no other recently issued and effective authoritative guidance that is expected to have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements through the reporting date.

(1) During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company recorded measurement period adjustments of $1.5 million to goodwill, consisting of an increase in intangible assets, accounts receivable and unbilled receivables, and long-term deferred tax liabilities of $0.4 million, $1.1 million, and $0.1 million, respectively, and a net working capital adjustment of $0.1 million. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company recorded a measurement period adjustments of $0.4 million to goodwill, consisting of an increase in long-term deferred tax liabilities and accrued liabilities of $0.3 million and $0.1 million, respectively.
(2) Closing cash is included in other current assets due to its restrictive nature as cash held for customers.
(3) During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company recorded measurement period adjustments of $3.9 million to goodwill, consisting of a purchase price adjustment of $5.2 million, a decrease in long-term deferred tax liabilities of $0.2 million and a decrease in accrued liabilities of $0.3 million, partially offset by a decrease to other current assets of $1.7 million.
(4) During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company recorded a measurement period adjustment of $0.3 million to goodwill related to a purchase price adjustment.
The $117.8 million of goodwill arising from the FDS Amplicare acquisition is primarily attributed to future sales of SaaS solutions and FDS Amplicare’s assembled workforce. The $77.6 million of goodwill arising from the ReCept acquisition is primarily attributed to future sales of its offerings and services and ReCept’s assembled workforce. None of the FDS Amplicare and ReCept goodwill is expected to be deductible for tax purposes as these acquisitions were treated as stock acquisitions for U.S. tax purposes. The $42.3 million of goodwill arising from the MarkeTouch Media acquisition is primarily attributed to future sales of SaaS solutions and MarkeTouch Media’s assembled workforce. The full amount of the MarkeTouch Media goodwill is expected to be deductible for tax purposes as this acquisition was treated as an asset acquisition for U.S. tax purposes.

(1) During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company recorded a measurement period adjustment of $0.4 million in customer relationships.
The customer relationships intangible assets represent the fair values of the underlying relationships and agreements with each acquired company’s customers. The acquired technology intangible assets represent the fair values of the portfolio of SaaS solutions that have reached technological feasibility and were part of the respective acquired company’s offerings at their respective acquisition dates. The backlog intangible asset represents contractually committed future billings associated with MarkeTouch Media customer contracts. The trade names intangible asset represents the fair value of brand and name recognition associated with the marketing of certain FDS Amplicare SaaS solutions.
The fair values of the customer relationships and backlog intangible assets were determined based on the excess earnings method, and the fair values of the acquired technology and trade names intangible assets were determined based on the relief-from-royalty method. The key assumptions used in estimating the fair values of intangible assets included forecasted financial information; customer attrition rates; royalty rate of 10.0% for the acquired technology intangible assets for both FDS Amplicare and MarkeTouch Media; royalty rate of 2.0% for the FDS Amplicare trade names intangible asset; discount rate of 13.0% for the FDS Amplicare acquisition; discount rate of 15.0% for the ReCept acquisition; discount rate of 11.5% for the MarkeTouch Media acquisition; and certain other assumptions.
The customer relationships and acquired technology intangible assets are being amortized using a double-declining method of amortization as such method better represents the economic benefits to be obtained. The backlog and trade names intangible assets are being amortized over their respective estimated useful lives using the straight-line method of amortization.

Note 4. Net Income (Loss) Per Share
Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) for the period by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period. In periods of net loss, all potential common shares are anti-dilutive, so diluted net loss per share equals the basic net loss per share. In periods of net income, diluted net income per share is computed by dividing net income for the period by the basic weighted-average number of shares plus any dilutive potential common stock outstanding during the period, using the treasury stock method for share-based awards and warrants, and the if-converted method for convertible senior notes. Potential common stock includes the effect of outstanding dilutive stock options, restricted stock awards, and restricted stock units, as well as shares the Company could be obligated to issue from its convertible senior notes and warrants, as described in Note 11, Convertible Senior Notes. For periods prior to the adoption of ASU 2020-06 on January 1, 2022, the Company applied the treasury stock method to calculate the dilutive impact of the convertible senior notes. Upon adoption of ASU 2020-06, effective January 1, 2022, the Company applies the if-converted method for calculating the dilutive impact of the convertible senior notes. Following the Company’s irrevocable election in December 2021 to settle the principal portion of the convertible senior notes in cash with any conversion consideration in excess of the principal portion in cash and/or shares of the Company’s common stock at the Company’s option upon conversion, only the amounts expected to be settled in excess of the principal portion are considered dilutive in calculating earnings per share under the if-converted method. Any anti-dilutive weighted-average dilutive shares related to stock award plans, convertible senior notes, and warrants are excluded from the computation of the diluted net income per share.
The basic and diluted net income (loss) per share calculations for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021 were as follows: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

Note 5. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company measures its financial instruments at fair value. The Company’s cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy as they are valued primarily using quoted market prices utilizing market observable inputs. The Company’s credit facility is classified within Level 2 as the valuation inputs are based on quoted prices or market observable data of similar instruments. The Company’s convertible senior notes are classified within Level 2 as the valuation inputs are based on quoted prices in an inactive market on the last day in the reporting period. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the fair value of the convertible senior notes was $527.2 million and $501.4 million, respectively, compared to their carrying values of $569.7 million and $566.6 million, respectively, which are net of unamortized debt issuance costs. Refer to Note 10, Debt and Credit Agreement, for further information regarding the Company’s credit facility and Note 11, Convertible Senior Notes, for further information regarding the Company’s convertible senior notes.

Note 10. Debt and Credit Agreement
On November 15, 2019, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (as amended, the “Prior A&R Credit Agreement”) with the lenders from time to time party thereto, Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, Citizens Bank, N.A., and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as joint lead arrangers, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent. The Prior A&R Credit Agreement provided for (a) a five-year revolving credit facility of $500.0 million (the “Prior Revolving Credit Facility”) and (b) an uncommitted incremental loan facility of up to $250.0 million (the “Prior Incremental
Facility”). In addition, the Prior A&R Credit Agreement included a letter of credit sub-limit of up to $15.0 million and a swing line loan sub-limit of up to $25.0 million. The Prior A&R Credit Agreement had an expiration date of November 15, 2024, upon which date all remaining outstanding borrowings would be due and payable.
On September 22, 2020 and March 29, 2023, the Company entered into amendments to the Prior A&R Credit Agreement to, among other changes, permit the issuance of the convertible senior notes and the purchase of the convertible note hedge transactions, as described in Note 11, Convertible Senior Notes, expand the Company’s flexibility to repurchase its common stock and make other restricted payments, and replace the total net leverage covenant with a new secured net leverage covenant that requires the Company to maintain a consolidated secured net leverage ratio not to exceed 3.50:1 for the calendar quarters ending September 30, 2020, December 31, 2020, and March 31, 2021 and 3.00:1 for the calendar quarters ending thereafter, as well as to remove and replace the interest rate benchmark based on the London interbank offered rate (“LIBOR”) and related LIBOR-based mechanics applicable to borrowings under the A&R Credit Agreement with an interest rate benchmark based on the secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”) as administered by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and related SOFR-based mechanics.
Subsequent to the March 29, 2023 amendment, loans under the Prior Revolving Credit Facility bore interest, at the Company’s option, at a rate equal to either (a) the Adjusted Term SOFR (as defined in the Prior A&R Credit Agreement), plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.25% to 2.00% per annum based on the Company’s Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Prior A&R Credit Agreement), or (b) an alternate base rate equal to the highest of (i) the prime rate, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, and (iii) the Adjusted Term SOFR for a one month tenor plus 1.00%, plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.25% to 1.00% per annum based on the Company’s Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio. Undrawn commitments under the Prior Revolving Credit Facility were subject to a commitment fee ranging from 0.15% to 0.30% per annum based on the Company’s Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio on the average daily unused portion of the Prior Revolving Credit Facility. The applicable margin for, and certain other terms of, any term loans under the Prior Incremental Facility would be determined prior to the incurrence of such loans. The Company was permitted to make voluntary prepayments at any time without payment of a premium or penalty.
The Prior A&R Credit Agreement contained customary representations and warranties and customary affirmative and negative covenants applicable to the Company and its subsidiaries, including, among other things, restrictions on indebtedness, liens, investments, mergers, dispositions, dividends, and other distributions. The Prior A&R Credit Agreement also contained financial covenants that required the Company and its subsidiaries to not exceed a maximum total secured net leverage ratio (as described above) and maintain a minimum interest coverage ratio. In addition, the Prior A&R Credit Agreement contained certain customary events of default including, but not limited to, failure to pay interest, principal, and fees, or other amounts when due, material misrepresentations or misstatements in any representation or warranty, covenant defaults, certain cross defaults to other material indebtedness, certain judgment defaults, and events of bankruptcy.
The Company entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Second A&R Credit Agreement”) on October 10, 2023, with the lenders from time to time party thereto, Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., PNC Capital Markets LLC and TD Securities (USA) LLC as joint lead arrangers and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent. The Second A&R Credit Agreement supersedes the Prior A&R Credit Agreement and provides for (a) a five-year revolving credit facility of $350.0 million (the “Current Revolving Credit Facility”) and (b) an uncommitted incremental loan facility of up to an amount equal to the sum of (i) the greater of $250.0 million or 100% of the adjusted consolidated EBITDA for the last four quarters and (ii) additional amounts subject to pro forma compliance with certain consolidated secured net leverage ratio (the “Current Incremental Facility”). In addition, the Second A&R Credit Agreement includes a letter of credit sub-limit of up to $15.0 million and a swing line loan sub-limit of up to $25.0 million. The Second A&R Credit Agreement has an expiration date of October 10, 2028, subject to acceleration under certain conditions, upon which date all remaining outstanding borrowings will be due and payable.
Loans under the Current Revolving Credit Facility bear interest, at the Company’s option, at a rate equal to either (a) the Adjusted Term SOFR (as defined in the Second A&R Credit Agreement), plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.50% to 2.25% per annum based on the Company’s Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Second A&R Credit Agreement), or (b) an alternate base rate equal to the highest of (i) the prime rate, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, and (iii) the Adjusted Term SOFR for an interest period of one month plus 1.00%, plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.50% to 1.25% per annum based on the Company’s Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio. Undrawn commitments under the Current Revolving Credit Facility are subject to a commitment fee ranging from 0.20% to 0.35% per annum based on the Company’s Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio on the average daily unused portion of the Current Revolving Credit Facility. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Current Revolving Credit Facility or Current Incremental Facility the Company is permitted to make voluntary prepayments at any time without payment of a premium or penalty. The availability of funds under the Current Revolving Credit Facility may be subject to reduction in order to maintain compliance with the financial covenants under the Second A&R Credit Agreement.
The Second A&R Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and customary affirmative and negative covenants applicable to the Company and its subsidiaries, including, among other things, restrictions on indebtedness, liens, investments, mergers, dispositions, dividends, and other distributions. The Second A&R Credit Agreement contains financial covenants that require the Company and its subsidiaries to not exceed a maximum consolidated secured net leverage ratio (not to exceed 3.00:1) and maintain a minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio (not to be less than 3.00:1). In addition, the Second A&R Credit Agreement contains certain customary events of default including, but not limited to, failure to pay interest, principal, and fees, or other amounts when due, material misrepresentations or misstatements in any representation or warranty, covenant defaults, certain cross defaults to other material indebtedness, certain judgment defaults, and events of bankruptcy.
The Company’s obligations under the Second A&R Credit Agreement and, at the election of the Company and the contracting counterparty, any secured swap obligations and banking services obligations owing to a lender (or an affiliate of a lender) are guaranteed by certain of its domestic subsidiaries and secured by substantially all of its and such subsidiary guarantors’ assets. In connection with entering into the Second A&R Credit Agreement, and as a condition precedent to borrowing loans thereunder, the Company and certain of the Company’s other direct and indirect subsidiaries have entered into certain ancillary agreements, including, but not limited to, a reaffirmation agreement, which amends certain terms of the existing collateral agreement and reaffirms their obligations under the existing guaranty agreement.
The refinancing of the Prior Credit Agreement was evaluated in accordance with ASC 470-50, Debt - Modifications and Extinguishments. In determining whether the refinancing was to be accounted for as a debt extinguishment or a debt modification, the Company considered whether lenders within the syndicate remained the same or changed and whether the changes in debt terms were substantial. This assessment was performed on an individual lender basis within the syndicate. As a result, the refinancing was accounted for as a modification with the exception of certain lenders that exited the syndicate. The exit of certain lenders resulted in an immaterial write-off of existing unamortized debt issuance costs. The remaining unamortized debt issuance costs related to debt modification, along with the new deferred costs, will be amortized over the remaining term of the Second A&R Credit Agreement.
In connection with the Second A&R Credit Agreement, the Company incurred and capitalized an additional $3.0 million of debt issuance costs. The debt issuance costs are being amortized to interest expense using the straight-line method through 2028.
As of December 31, 2023, the Company had $350.0 million of funds available under the Current Revolving Credit Facility and as of December 31, 2022, the Company had $500.0 million of funds available under the Prior Revolving Credit Facility. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company had no outstanding balance under the Prior or Current Revolving Credit Facility. The Company was in compliance with all covenants as of December 31, 2023.
Note 11. Convertible Senior Notes
0.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2025
On September 25, 2020, the Company completed a private offering of $575.0 million aggregate principal amount of 0.25% convertible senior notes (the “Notes”), including the exercise in full of the initial purchasers’ option to purchase up to an additional $75.0 million principal amount of the Notes. The Company received proceeds from the issuance of the Notes of $559.7 million, net of $15.3 million of transaction fees and other debt issuance costs. The Notes bear interest at a rate of 0.25% per year, payable semiannually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year, beginning on March 15, 2021. The Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated September 25, 2020 (the “Indenture”), between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee. The Notes are general senior, unsecured obligations of the Company and will mature on September 15, 2025, unless earlier redeemed, repurchased, or converted.
The Notes are convertible at the option of the holders at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding May 15, 2025, only under the following circumstances: (i) during any fiscal quarter commencing after the fiscal quarter ended on December 31, 2020 (and only during such fiscal quarter), if the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price for the Notes on each applicable trading day; (ii) during the five business day period after any ten consecutive trading day period (the “measurement period”) in which the trading price (as defined in the Indenture) per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes for each trading day of the measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock and the conversion rate for the Notes on each such trading day; (iii) if the Company calls such Notes for redemption, at any time prior to the close of business on the scheduled trading day immediately preceding the redemption date, but only with respect to the Notes called (or deemed called) for redemption; and (iv) upon the occurrence of specified corporate events, as specified in the Indenture. On or after May 15, 2025 until the close of business on
the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, holders of the Notes may convert all or any portion of their Notes at any time, regardless of the foregoing conditions.
During the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, none of the conditional conversion features of the Notes were triggered, and therefore, the Notes are not convertible during the first quarter of 2024, commencing on January 1, 2024, and were not convertible during the first quarter of 2023, commencing on January 1, 2023. Accordingly, the Company classified the Notes as a long-term liability in its Consolidated Financial Statements as of December 31, 2023 and 2022. Whether the Notes will be convertible following the first fiscal quarter of 2024 will depend on the satisfaction of the conversion conditions in the future.
Under the original terms of the Indenture, upon conversion, the Company could satisfy its conversion obligation by paying or delivering cash, shares of its common stock, or a combination thereof, at the Company’s election, in the manner and subject to the terms and conditions provided in the Indenture. On December 13, 2021, the Company irrevocably elected to fix its settlement method to a combination of cash and shares of the Company’s common stock with the specified cash amount per $1,000 principal amount of Notes of at least $1,000. As a result, for Notes converted on or after December 13, 2021, a converting noteholder will receive (i) up to $1,000 in cash per $1,000 principal amount of Notes and (ii) cash and/or shares of the Company’s common stock, at the Company’s option for any conversion consideration in excess of $1,000. In addition, the Company continues to have the ability to set the specified cash amount per $1,000 principal amount of Notes above $1,000. The initial conversion rate for the Notes is 10.2751 shares of the Company’s common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $97.32 per share of the Company’s common stock, subject to adjustment under certain circumstances in accordance with the terms of the Indenture. In addition, following certain corporate events that could occur prior to the maturity date of the Notes or if the Company delivers a notice of redemption in respect of the Notes, the Company will, under certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate of the Notes for a holder who elects to convert its Notes (or any portion thereof) in connection with such a corporate event or convert its Notes called (or deemed called) for redemption during the related redemption period (as defined in the Indenture), as the case may be.
If the Company undergoes a fundamental change, holders may require, subject to certain exceptions, the Company to repurchase for cash all or any portion of their Notes at a fundamental change repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date. As of December 31, 2023, none of the criteria for a fundamental change or a conversion rate adjustment had been met.
As of September 20, 2023, the Company may redeem for cash all or any portion of the Notes, at its option, if the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price for the Notes then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading day period (including the last trading day of such period) ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides notice of redemption at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date. If the Company redeems less than all of the outstanding Notes, at least $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of Notes must be outstanding and not subject to redemption as of the date of the relevant notice of redemption. No sinking fund is provided for in the Notes.
The debt issuance costs associated with the Notes are being amortized to interest expense over the term of the Notes using an effective interest rate of 0.80%. As of December 31, 2023, the remaining life of the Notes and the related issuance cost accretion is approximately 1.7 years.
The maximum number of shares issuable upon conversion, including the effect of a fundamental change and subject to other conversion rate adjustments, would be 5.9 million shares. As of December 31, 2023, the if-converted value of the Notes did not exceed the principal amount.
The Notes consisted of the following balances reported in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2023 and 2022:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| December 31, |
| 2023 | | 2022 |

Convertible Note Hedge and Warrant Transactions
In connection with the issuance of the Notes in September 2020, the Company entered into convertible note hedge and warrant transactions with an affiliate of one of the initial purchasers of the Notes and certain other financial institutions (the “option counterparties”) with respect to the Company’s common stock.
The convertible note hedge consists of an option for the Company to purchase up to approximately 5.9 million shares of the Company’s common stock, which is equal to the number of shares of the Company’s common stock underlying the Notes, at an initial strike price of approximately $97.32 per share. The convertible note hedge will expire upon the maturity of the Notes, if not earlier exercised or terminated. The cost of the convertible note hedge was approximately $100.6 million and was accounted for as an equity instrument, which was recorded in additional paid-in capital in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company recorded a deferred tax asset of $25.8 million at issuance related to the convertible note hedge transaction. The convertible note hedge is expected generally to reduce the potential dilution to the Company’s common stock upon any conversion of Notes and/or offset any cash payments the Company is required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted Notes.
Separately from the convertible note hedge, the Company entered into warrant transactions to sell to the option counterparties warrants to acquire, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments, up to approximately 5.9 million shares of its common stock in the aggregate at an initial strike price of $141.56 per share. The warrants require net share or net cash settlement upon the Company’s election. The Company received aggregate proceeds of approximately $51.3 million for the issuance of the warrants, which was recorded in additional paid-in capital at issuance in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The warrants could separately have a dilutive effect to the Company’s common stock to the extent that the market price per share of its common stock exceeds the strike price of the warrants.

Note 14. Commitments and Contingencies
Purchase Obligations
In the ordinary course of business, the Company issues purchase orders based on its current manufacturing needs. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had non-cancelable purchase commitments of $93.9 million, of which $84.2 million are expected to be paid within the next twelve months.
Ransomware Incident
During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company did not incur any material expenses or recoveries related to the previously disclosed ransomware incident in May 2022. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company incurred $13.6 million of expenses related to the ransomware incident, partially offset by $11.1 million of expected insurance recoveries. Expenses included costs to investigate and remediate the ransomware incident, as well as legal and other professional services, all of which were expensed as incurred. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company included net expenses related to the ransomware incident in cost of revenues of $0.3 million, in research and development of $0.2 million, and in selling general and administrative expenses of $2.0 million, in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations.
As of December 31, 2023, the Company has incurred $13.6 million of cumulative expenses related to the ransomware incident since it was detected, partially offset by $12.2 million of insurance recoveries, all of which have been received as of December 31, 2023.
Legal Proceedings
The Company is currently involved in various legal proceedings.
As required under ASC 450, Contingencies, the Company accrues for contingencies when it believes that a loss is probable and that it can reasonably estimate the amount of any such loss. The Company has not recorded any material accrual for contingent liabilities associated with any current legal proceedings based on its belief that any potential material loss, while reasonably possible, is not probable. Furthermore, any possible range of loss in such matters cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. The Company believes that it has valid defenses with respect to legal proceedings pending against it. However, litigation is inherently unpredictable, and it is possible that cash flows or results of operations could be materially affected in any particular period by the unfavorable resolution of legal proceedings or because of the diversion of management’s attention and the creation of significant expenses, regardless of outcome.
The Company is not a party to any legal proceedings that management believes may have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
Guarantees
Under the Company’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws, the Company has agreed to indemnify its directors and executive officers to the fullest extent not prohibited by Delaware and other applicable law, subject to certain exceptions. The Company has entered into individual indemnification agreements with its directors and officers. The term of the indemnification period is for the entirety of the director’s or officer’s service to the Company and continues so long as the director or officer may be subject to any claim, action, or proceeding, and there is no limit on the potential amount of future payments that the Company could be required to make under these indemnification agreements. The Company has purchased a directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy that may enable it to recover a portion of any future payments that it may be required to make under these indemnification agreements. Assuming the applicability of coverage and the willingness of the insurer to assume coverage and subject to certain retention, loss limits, and other policy provisions, the Company believes it is unlikely that the Company will be required to pay any material amounts pursuant to these indemnification obligations. However, no assurances can be given that the insurers will not attempt to dispute the validity, applicability, or amount of coverage without expensive and time-consuming litigation against the insurers.
Additionally, the Company undertakes indemnification obligations in its ordinary course of business in connection with, among other things, the sale or licensing of its products and the provision of its support services. In the ordinary course of the Company’s business, the Company has in the past and may in the future agree to indemnify another party, generally its business affiliates or customers, against certain losses suffered or incurred by the indemnified party in connection with various types of claims, which may include, without limitation, claims of intellectual property infringement, certain tax liabilities, its gross negligence or intentional acts in the performance of services, and violations of laws. The term of these indemnification obligations is generally perpetual, but typically will not extend beyond the applicable statute of limitation pursuant to applicable law. In general, the Company attempts to limit the maximum potential amount of future payments that it may be required to make under these indemnification obligations to the amounts paid to it by a customer, but in some cases the obligation may not be so limited.
In addition, the Company has in the past and may in the future warrant to its customers that its products will conform to certain representations, which may include functional specifications for a limited period of time following the date of installation (generally not exceeding 30 days) or that its software media is free from material defects. Sales contracts for certain of the Company’s medication packaging systems may have in the past and may in the future include limited warranties for up to six months, but the periodic activity and ending warranty balances the Company records have historically not been material.
From time to time, the Company may also warrant that its professional services will conform to certain representations, which may include that such services will be performed in a good and workmanlike manner or in a professional manner consistent with industry standards. The Company generally seeks to disclaim most warranties, including any implied or statutory warranties such as warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, quality, and non-infringement, as well as any liability with respect to incidental, consequential, special, exemplary, punitive, or similar damages. In some states, such disclaimers may not be enforceable. If necessary, the Company would provide for the estimated cost of product and service warranties based on specific warranty claims and claim history. The Company has not been subject to any significant claims for such losses and has not incurred any material costs in defending or settling claims related to these indemnification obligations. Accordingly, the Company believes it is unlikely that the Company will be required to pay any material amounts pursuant to these indemnification obligations or potential warranty claims and, therefore, no material liabilities have been recorded for such indemnification obligations as of December 31, 2023 and 2022.
Note 15. Employee Benefits and Share-Based Compensation
Stock Purchase Plan
1997 Employee Stock Purchase Plan
The Company has an Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”), under which employees can purchase shares of its common stock based on a percentage of their compensation, but not greater than 15% of their earnings; provided, however, an eligible employee’s right to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock may not accrue at a rate which exceeds $25,000 of the fair market value of such shares for each calendar year in which such rights are outstanding. The purchase price per share must be equal to the lower of 85% of the fair value of the common stock at the beginning of a 24-month offering period or the end of each six-month purchasing period.
There was a total of 3.3 million shares reserved for future issuance under the ESPP as of December 31, 2023.
Stock Award Plans
2009 Equity Incentive Plan
The 2009 Equity Incentive Plan (“2009 Plan”), as amended, provides for the issuance of incentive stock options, RSAs, RSUs, PSUs, and other stock awards to the Company’s employees, directors, and consultants. There were 5.9 million shares of common stock reserved for future issuance under the 2009 Plan as of December 31, 2023.
Options granted under the 2009 Plan generally become exercisable over periods of up to four years, with one-fourth of the shares vesting one year from the vesting commencement date with respect to initial grants, and the remaining shares vesting in 36 equal monthly installments thereafter. The exercise prices of the options is the fair market value of common stock on the date of grant. RSUs generally vest over periods of up to four years, with one-fourth of the shares vesting one year from the vesting commencement date with respect to initial grants, and the remaining shares vesting in 12 equal quarterly installments thereafter. Awards of restricted stock to non-employee directors are granted on the date of the annual meeting of stockholders and vest in full on the date of the next annual meeting of stockholders, provided such non-employee director remains a director on such date. PSUs granted to the Company’s executives may include performance and market conditions. PSUs become eligible for vesting when certain market or performance conditions are met.

Performance-Based Stock Unit Awards (“PSUs”)
During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company granted 56,237 PSUs to its executive officers, none of which became eligible for vesting as the achievement of a certain level of shareholder return was not achieved. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company granted 65,000 PSUs to its executive officers, of which 0% to 200% may become eligible for vesting depending on the level of shareholder return for the period from March 1, 2023 through March 1, 2024.
The number of shares that vest at the end of the performance period depends on the percentile ranking of the total shareholder return for Omnicell stock over the performance period relative to the total shareholder return of each of the other companies in the NASDAQ Health Care Index. Stock price appreciation is calculated based on the trailing 20-day average stock price just prior to the first trading day of March in the grant year, compared to the trailing 20-day average stock price just prior to the first trading day of March in the year subsequent to the grant year.
PSUs generally vest over periods of up to four years, with one-fourth of the shares vesting approximately one year from the vesting commencement date with respect to initial grants and upon confirmation by the Compensation Committee that the performance target has been met, and the remaining shares generally vesting in equal semi-annual or quarterly installments over the remaining three years. Vesting is contingent upon continued service.
In addition to executive officers’ PSU awards, from time to time, the Company may grant PSUs with specific performance and service conditions to certain employees on an ad hoc basis.

On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, (the “IRA”), was signed into law. Among other things, the IRA imposes a 15% corporate alternative minimum tax for tax years beginning after December 31, 2022, levies a 1% excise tax on net stock repurchases after December 31, 2022, and provides tax incentives to promote clean energy. The provisions of the IRA did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.
The Organization for Economic Co-Operation and Development (“OECD”) introduced Base Erosion and Profit Shifting (“BEPS”) Pillar Two rules that impose a global minimum tax rate of 15% on multi-national corporations. The rules are effective for the Company’s financial year beginning January 1, 2024. Numerous countries have enacted or substantively enacted legislation to implement these rules. While the Company does not expect Pillar Two to have a material impact on its tax provision or effective tax rate, the Company continues to monitor evolving tax legislation in the jurisdictions in which it operates.
Significant components of the Company’s deferred tax assets (liabilities) were as follows:

Deferred income tax assets (liabilities) are provided for temporary differences that will result in future tax deductions or future taxable income, as well as the future benefit of tax credit carryforwards. The Company recognizes deferred tax assets to the extent that it believes these assets are more likely than not to be realized. In making such a determination, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies, and results of recent operations. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company does not have a valuation allowance against any of its deferred tax assets.
As of December 31, 2023, the Company had no federal net operating loss carryforward, $19.0 million of state net operating loss carryforwards expiring at various dates beginning in 2029, and $22.3 million of foreign net operating losses carried forward indefinitely. For income tax purposes, the Company had no federal research tax credit carryforward and a California research tax credit carryforward of $20.9 million. California research tax credits are carried forward indefinitely to reduce cash taxes payable.
It is the Company’s practice and intention to reinvest the earnings of its non-U.S. subsidiaries in those operations. As of December 31, 2023, the Company has not made a provision for U.S. federal income, withholding, and state income taxes on the outside basis difference related to certain foreign subsidiaries because earnings are intended to be indefinitely reinvested in operations outside the U.S.
The Company files income tax returns in the United States and various state and foreign jurisdictions. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examinations by taxing authorities, including major jurisdictions such as the United States, Germany, Italy, France, the United Kingdom and India. With few exceptions, as of December 31, 2023, the Company was no longer subject to U.S., state, and foreign tax examinations for years before 2020, 2019, and 2019, respectively.

The total amount of gross unrecognized tax benefit that, if realized, would favorably affect the Company’s effective income tax rate in future periods, was $10.7 million and $9.3 million as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in interest and other income (expense), net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, accruing $0.2 million, $0.2 million, and $0.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021, respectively. Accrued interest and penalties are included within other long-term liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The combined amount of cumulative accrued interest and penalties was approximately $0.4 million, $0.2 million, and $0.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021, respectively. The Company does not believe there will be any significant changes in its unrecognized tax positions over the next twelve months.
Note 18. Restructuring Expenses
During the first quarter of 2021, the Company continued its organizational realignment initiative that was announced in 2020, incurring $2.0 million of employee severance costs and related expenses.
During the first quarter of 2022, the Company initiated certain domestic and international restructuring initiatives in order to enhance and streamline certain engineering functions for its domestic operations and to realign its international sales organization to better serve its customers in various international markets. During the third quarter of 2022, the Company initiated restructuring initiatives associated with the integration and functionalization of certain acquisitions, primarily the 340B Link business acquisition, to further accelerate the expansion of the Company’s pharmacy inventory management capabilities. On November 23, 2022, the Company committed to a plan to reduce the Company’s headcount (“the 2022 Plan”) as part of the Company’s expense containment efforts being implemented due to ongoing macroeconomic headwinds, primarily consisting of employee severance and benefits costs. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the restructuring plans incurred $22.8 million of employee severance costs and related expenses. As of December 31, 2023, there was no material unpaid balance related to these restructuring plans.
During the first quarter of 2023, as a result of continued exploration of expense containment measures, the Company committed to further reduce its headcount across many of its functions as a continuation of the 2022 Plan, and also committed to reduce its real estate footprint to align with its broader hybrid work strategy and in an effort to further reduce costs. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company recorded an immaterial reversal of previously recognized restructuring expenses associated with the 2022 Plan.
On November 2, 2023, the Company committed to a plan to reduce the Company’s headcount and real estate footprint (the “2023 Plan”) as part of the Company’s expense containment initiatives and other actions to reduce discretionary spending being implemented due to challenging industry dynamics and macroeconomic conditions. During the year ended December 31,
2023, the restructuring plans incurred $15.5 million of employee severance costs and related expenses, net of reversals. As of December 31, 2023, the unpaid balance related to these restructuring plans was $8.9 million.
Refer to Note 13, Lessee Leases for information regarding the Company’s restructuring activities for the reduction of its real estate footprint and optimization of certain leased facilities.
The following table summarizes the total employee-related restructuring expenses recognized in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021:
