Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Amneal Pharmaceuticals, Inc.'s other publicly available documents contain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Management and representatives of Amneal Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the "Company") also may from time to time make forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements do not relate strictly to historical or current facts and reflect management’s assumptions, views, plans, objectives and projections about the future. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of words such as “plans,” “expects,” “will,” “anticipates,” “estimates” and other words of similar meaning in conjunction with, among other things: discussions of future operations; expected operating results and financial performance; impact of planned acquisitions and dispositions; the Company’s strategy for growth; product development; regulatory approvals; market position and expenditures.
Because forward-looking statements are based on current beliefs, expectations and assumptions regarding future events, they are subject to uncertainties, risks and changes that are difficult to predict and many of which are outside of the Company's control. Additionally, many of these risks and uncertainties are, and may continue to be, amplified by the COVID-19 pandemic. Investors should realize that if underlying assumptions prove inaccurate, known or unknown risks or uncertainties materialize, or other factors or circumstances change, the Company’s actual results and financial condition could vary materially from expectations and projections expressed or implied in its forward-looking statements. Investors are therefore cautioned not to rely on these forward-looking statements.
Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to:
the impact of global economic conditions;
the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, manufacturing, supply chain, financial results, financial condition, and planned capital expenditures and national and international economies;
our ability to successfully develop, license, acquire and commercialize new products on a timely basis;
our ability to obtain exclusive marketing rights for our products;
the competition we face in the pharmaceutical industry from brand and generic drug product companies, and the impact of that competition on our ability to set prices;
our ability to manage our growth through acquisitions and otherwise;
our dependence on the sales of a limited number of products for a substantial portion of our total revenues;
the risk of product liability and other claims against us by consumers and other third parties;
risks related to changes in the regulatory environment, including United States federal and state laws related to healthcare fraud abuse and health information privacy and security and changes in such laws;
changes to FDA product approval requirements;
risks related to federal regulation of arrangements between manufacturers of branded and generic products;
the impact of healthcare reform and changes in coverage and reimbursement levels by governmental authorities and other third-party payers;
the continuing trend of consolidation of certain customer groups;
our reliance on certain licenses to proprietary technologies from time to time;
our dependence on third-party suppliers and distributors for raw materials for our products and certain finished goods;
our dependence on third-party agreements for a portion of our product offerings;
our ability to identify and make acquisitions of or investments in complementary businesses and products on advantageous terms;
legal, regulatory and legislative efforts by our brand competitors to deter competition from our generic alternatives;
the significant amount of resources we expend on research and development;
our substantial amount of indebtedness and our ability to generate sufficient cash to service our indebtedness in the future, and the impact of interest rate fluctuations on such indebtedness;
the high concentration of ownership of our Class A Common Stock and the fact that we are controlled by the Amneal Group; and
risks related to the material weakness in internal controls over financial reporting regarding cash disbursements discussed in Part I, Item 4. "Controls and Procedures."
1


Investors also should carefully read our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, including the section captioned “Risk Factors” for a description of certain risks that could, among other things, cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed in our forward-looking statements, as supplemented by Part II, Item 1A “Risk Factors” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Investors should understand that it is not possible to predict or identify all such factors and should not consider the risks described herein and in our Annual Report to be a complete statement of all potential risks and uncertainties. The Company does not undertake to publicly update any forward-looking statement that may be made from time to time, whether as a result of new information or future events or developments.

Amneal Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(unaudited)
1. Nature of Operations
Amneal Pharmaceuticals, Inc., formerly known as Atlas Holdings, Inc. (the "Company"), was formed along with its wholly owned subsidiary, K2 Merger Sub Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Merger Sub"), on October 4, 2017, for the purpose of facilitating the combination of Impax Laboratories, Inc. (now Impax Laboratories, LLC), a Delaware corporation then listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market ("Impax") and Amneal Pharmaceuticals LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("Amneal"). The Company is a holding company, whose principal assets are Amneal Common Units.
Amneal was formed in 2002 and operates through various subsidiaries. Amneal is a vertically integrated developer, manufacturer, and seller of generic pharmaceutical products. Amneal’s pharmaceutical research includes analytical and formulation development and stability. Amneal operates principally in the United States, India, and Ireland.  Amneal sells to wholesalers, distributors, hospitals, chain pharmacies and individual pharmacies, either directly or indirectly.
On October 17, 2017, Amneal, Impax, the Company and Merger Sub entered into the Business Combination Agreement, as amended on November 21, 2017 and December 16, 2017 (the "BCA").
On May 4, 2018, pursuant to the BCA, Impax and Amneal combined the generics and specialty pharmaceutical business of Impax with the generic drug development and manufacturing business of Amneal to create the Company as a new generics and specialty pharmaceutical company, through the following transactions (together, the "Combination", and the closing of the Combination, the "Closing"): (i) Merger Sub merged with and into Impax, with Impax surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, (ii) each share of Impax’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share ("Impax Common Stock"), issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Closing, other than Impax Common Stock held by Impax in treasury, by the Company or by any of their respective subsidiaries, was converted into the right to receive one fully paid and non-assessable share of Class A common stock of the Company, par value $0.01 per share ("Class A Common Stock"), (iii) Impax converted to a Delaware limited liability company, (iv) the Company contributed to Amneal all of the Company’s equity interests in Impax, in exchange for Amneal common units ("Amneal Common Units"), (v) the Company issued an aggregate number of shares of Class B common stock of the Company, par value $0.01 per share ("Class B Common Stock", and collectively, with the Class A Common Stock and Class B-1 common stock of the Company, par value $0.01 ("Class B-1 Common Stock"), the "Company Common Stock") to APHC Holdings, LLC (formerly Amneal Holdings, LLC), the parent entity of Amneal as of the Closing ("Holdings"), and (vi) the Company became the managing member of Amneal.
Immediately upon the Closing, holders of Impax Common Stock prior to the Closing collectively held approximately 25% of the Company and Holdings held a majority interest in the Company with an effective voting interest of approximately 75% on a fully diluted and as converted basis through its ownership of Class B Common Stock. Holdings also held a corresponding number of Amneal Common Units, which entitled it to approximately 75% of the economic interests in the combined businesses of Impax and Amneal. The Company held an interest in Amneal of approximately 25% and became its managing member.
In connection with the Combination, on May 4, 2018, Holdings entered into definitive purchase agreements which provided for a private placement of certain shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B-1 Common Stock (the "PIPE Investment") with select institutional investors (the "PIPE Investors"). Pursuant to the terms of the purchase agreements, upon the Closing, Holdings exercised its right to cause the Company to redeem approximately 15% of its ownership interests in the Company in exchange for 34.5 million shares of Class A Common Stock and 12.3 million unregistered shares of Class B-1 Common Stock (the "Redemption"). The shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B-1 Common Stock received in the Redemption were sold immediately following the Closing by Holdings to the PIPE Investors at a per share purchase price of $18.25 for gross proceeds of $855 million. Following the PIPE Investment, the PIPE Investors owned collectively approximately 15% of the Company Common Stock on a fully diluted and as converted basis. On May 4, 2018, Holdings also caused Amneal to redeem (the "Closing Date Redemption") 6.9 million of Amneal Common Units held by Holdings for a like number of shares of Class A Common Stock, for future distribution to certain direct and indirect members of Holdings who were or are employees of the Company and to whom were previously issued (prior to the Closing) profit participation units ("PPUs") in Amneal. As a result of the PIPE Investment and Closing Date Redemption, the voting and economic interest of approximately 75% held by Holdings immediately upon Closing was reduced by approximately 18%. The overall interest percentage held by non-controlling interest holders (the "Amneal Group") upon the consummation of the Combination, PIPE Investment and Closing Date Redemption was approximately 57%. As of both June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the overall interest percentage held by non-controlling interest holders was approximately 51%.
9


On July 5, 2018, Holdings distributed to its members all Amneal Common Units and shares of Class B Common Stock held by Holdings. As a result, as of June 30, 2020, Holdings did not hold any equity interest in Amneal or the Company.
During the year ended December 31, 2019, pursuant to the Company's certificate of incorporation, the Company converted all (12.3 million) of its issued and outstanding shares of Class B-1 Common Stock to Class A Common Stock and such shares of Class B-1 Common Stock have been retired and may not be reissued by the Company. The rights of Class A Common Stock and Class B-1 Common Stock were identical, except that the Class B-1 Common Stock had certain director appointment rights and the Class B-1 Common Stock had no voting rights (other than with respect to its director appointment right and as otherwise required by law).
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements, which are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, should be read in conjunction with Amneal’s annual audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019 included in the Company’s 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements have been omitted from the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the Company's financial position as of June 30, 2020, cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 and the results of its operations, its comprehensive income (loss) and its changes in stockholders' equity for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. The consolidated balance sheet data at December 31, 2019 was derived from the Company's audited annual financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.
The accounting policies of the Company are set forth in Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies contained in the Company’s 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K, except for the impact of the adoption of new accounting standards discussed under Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements. The following new significant accounting policy relates to the acquisitions of AvKARE, Inc. and Dixon-Shane, LLC d/b/a R&S Northeast LLC (refer to Note 3. Acquisitions and Divestitures).
Chargebacks Received From Manufacturers
When a sale occurs on a contracted item, the difference between the cost the Company pays to the manufacturer of that item and the contract price that the end customer has with the manufacturer is rebated to the Company by the manufacturer as a chargeback. Chargebacks are recorded as a reduction to cost of sales and either a reduction in the amount due to the manufacturer (if there is a right of offset) or as a receivable from the manufacturer.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements requires the Company's management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported financial position at the date of the financial statements and the reported results of operations during the reporting period. Such estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. The following are some, but not all, of such estimates: the determination of chargebacks, sales returns, rebates, billbacks, distribution fees, allowances for accounts receivable, accrued liabilities, chargebacks received from manufacturers, stock-based compensation, valuation of inventory balances, the determination of useful lives for product rights, allowances for deferred tax assets, measurement of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations at fair value and the assessment of expected cash flows used in evaluating goodwill and other long-lived assets for impairment. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 82): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement, which modifies the disclosure requirements on fair value measurement.  The Company adopted ASU 2018-13 effective January 1, 2020 and it did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
10


In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, guidance that changes the impairment model for most financial assets including trade receivables and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income. The standard will replace today’s "incurred loss" approach with an "expected loss" model for instruments measured at amortized cost and require entities to record allowances for available-for-sale debt securities rather than reduce the carrying amount, as they do today under the other-than-temporary impairment model. It also simplifies the accounting model for purchased credit-impaired debt securities and loans. Entities will apply the standard’s provisions as a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 effective January 1, 2020 and it did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform, which provided elective amendments for entities that have contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform.  The amendments may be applied to impacted contracts and hedges prospectively through December 31, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.
3. Acquisitions and Divestitures
AvKARE and R&S Acquisitions
On December 10, 2019, the Company, through its investment in Rondo Partners, LLC (“Rondo”), entered into an equity purchase and operating agreements to acquire approximately a 65.1% controlling financing interest in both AvKARE Inc., a Tennessee corporation, and Dixon-Shane, LLC d/b/a R&S Northeast LLC, a Kentucky limited liability company (“R&S”) (collectively the “Acquisitions”). Prior to closing, AvKARE, Inc. converted to a limited liability company, AvKARE, LLC. AvKARE, LLC is one of the largest private label providers of generic pharmaceuticals in the U.S. federal agency sector, primarily focused on serving the Department of Defense and the Department of Veterans Affairs. R&S is a national pharmaceutical wholesaler focused primarily on offering 340b-qualified entities products to provide consistency in care and pricing.
On January 31, 2020, the Company completed the Acquisitions.  The purchase price of $295 million, included cash of $254 million and the issuance of long-term promissory notes to the sellers with an aggregate principal amount of $44 million (estimated fair value of $35 million) (the “Sellers Notes”) and a short-term promissory note (the “Short-Term Seller Note”) with a principal amount of $1 million to the sellers.  The cash purchase price was funded by $76 million of cash on hand and $178 million of proceeds from a $180 million term loan.  The remaining $2 million consisted of working capital costs. The Company is not party to or a guarantor of the term loan, Sellers Notes or Short-Term Sellers Note. (refer to Note 13. Debt).  For further detail of the preliminary purchase price, refer to the table below.
For the six months ended June 30, 2020, there were $1 million of transaction costs associated with the Acquisitions recorded in acquisition, transaction-related and integration expenses (none for the three months ended June 30, 2020).
The Acquisitions were accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting, with Amneal as the accounting acquirer of AvKARE, LLC and R&S.
The preliminary purchase price is calculated as follows (in thousands):
Cash$254,000  
Sellers Notes (1)
35,033  
Settlement of Amneal trade accounts receivable from R&S (2)
7,440  
Short-Term Seller Note (3)
1,000  
Working capital adjustment (4)
(2,640) 
Fair value consideration transferred$294,833  
(1)In accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations, all consideration transferred was measured at its acquisition-date fair value. The Sellers Notes are stated at the preliminary fair value estimate of $35 million, which is the $44 million aggregate principal amount less a $9 million discount.  The fair value of the Sellers Notes was estimated using the Monte-Carlo simulation approach under the option pricing framework.

(2)Represents trade accounts receivable from R&S that was effectively settled upon closing of the Acquisitions.
(3)Represents the principal amount due on the Short-Term Seller Note, which approximates fair value.
(4)Represents estimated working capital adjustment pursuant to the terms of the purchase agreement.
The following is a summary of the preliminary purchase price allocation for the Acquisitions (in thousands):

Fair value of consideration transferred$294,833  
The acquired intangible assets are being amortized over their estimated useful lives as follows (in thousands):
Preliminary
Fair Values

Useful Life
Government licenses$66,700  7 years
Government contracts22,000  4 years
National contracts28,600  5 years
Customer relationships13,000  10 years
Trade name500  6 years
$130,800  
The estimated fair values of the customer relationships, government contracts and national contracts were determined using the “income approach,” which is a valuation technique that provides an estimate of the fair value of an intangible asset based on market participant expectations of the cash flows that an intangible asset would generate over its remaining useful life.  The estimated fair value of the trade name was determined using the “relief from royalty method,” which is a valuation technique that provides an estimate of the fair value of an intangible asset equal to the present value of the after-tax royalty savings attributable to owning the intangible asset. The estimated fair value of the government licenses was determined using the “with-and-without method,” which is a valuation technique that provides an estimate of the fair value of an intangible asset that is equal to the difference between the present value of the prospective revenues and expenses for the business with and without the subject intangible asset in place. The assumptions, including the expected projected cash flows, utilized in the preliminary purchase price allocation and in determining the purchase price were based on management's best estimates as of the closing date of the Acquisitions on January 31, 2020.
Some of the more significant assumptions inherent in the development of those asset valuations include the estimated net cash flows for each year for each asset (including net revenues, cost of sales, selling and marketing costs and working capital / contributory asset charges), the appropriate discount rate to select in order to measure the risk inherent in each future cash flow stream, the assessment of each asset’s life cycle, competitive trends impacting the asset and each cash flow stream, as well as other factors. No assurances can be given that the underlying assumptions used to prepare the discounted cash flow analysis will not change. For these and other reasons, actual results may vary significantly from estimated results.
12


The Company makes an initial allocation of the purchase price at the date of acquisition based upon its understanding of the fair value of the acquired assets, assumed liabilities and redeemable non-controlling interests. The Company obtains this information during due diligence and through other sources.  In the months after closing, as the Company obtains additional information about these assets and liabilities and learns more about the newly acquired businesses, it is able to refine the estimates of fair value and more accurately allocate the purchase price.  Only items identified as of the acquisition date are considered for subsequent adjustment.  The Company is continuing to evaluate the acquired assets, assumed liabilities and redeemable non-controlling interests associated with the Acquisitions. The Company will make appropriate adjustments to the purchase price allocation prior to completion of the measurement period, as required.
The Sellers Notes and redeemable non-controlling interests were estimated using the Monte-Carlo simulation approach under the option pricing framework.  The non-controlling interests are redeemable at the option of either the non-controlling interest holder and Amneal. The fair value of the redeemable non-controlling interests considers these redemption rights.
Of the $109 million of goodwill acquired in connection with the Acquisitions, approximately $73 million was allocated to the Company’s AvKARE segment (refer to Note 18. Segment Information) and approximately $36 million was allocated to the Generics segment.  Goodwill was allocated to the Generics segment as net revenue of products manufactured from Amneal and distributed by the Acquisitions is reflected in Generics’ segment results.  Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the fair value of the consideration transferred and the fair value of the redeemable non-controlling interests over the fair value of the net assets recognized. Factors that contributed to the recognition of goodwill include Amneal’s intent to diversify its business and open growth opportunities in the large, complex and growing federal healthcare market.
For the three months ended June 30, 2020, the Acquisitions contributed total net revenue of approximately $67 million and operating income of $3 million, which included approximately $8 million of amortization expense from intangible assets acquired in the Acquisitions, to the Company’s consolidated results of operations. 
For the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Acquisitions contributed total net revenue of approximately $132 million and operating income of $1 million, which included approximately $14 million of amortization expense from intangible assets acquired in the Acquisitions, to the Company’s consolidated results of operations.  
Unaudited Pro Forma Information
The unaudited pro forma combined results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 (assuming the closing of the Acquisitions occurred on January 1, 2019) are as follows (in thousands):
Three Months Ended June 30,Six Months Ended June 30,

U.K. Divestiture

On March 30, 2019, the Company sold 100% of the stock of its Creo Pharma Holding Limited subsidiary, which comprised substantially all of the Company's operations in the United Kingdom, to AI Sirona (Luxembourg) Acquisition S.a.r.l ("AI Sirona") for net cash consideration of approximately $32 million which was received in April 2019. The carrying value of the net assets sold was $22 million, including intangible assets of $7 million and goodwill of $5 million. As a result of the sale, the Company recognized a pre-tax gain of $9 million, inclusive of transaction costs and the recognition of accumulated foreign currency translation adjustment losses of $3 million, within gain (loss) on sale of international businesses, net for the six months ended June 30, 2019. For the three months ended June 30, 2020, the Company made a $0.5 million payment to AI Sirona for and recognized a $0.1 million gain on sale of international business for final settlement of the divestiture. As part of
13


the disposition, the Company entered into a supply and license agreement with AI Sirona to supply certain products for a period of up to two years.
Germany Divestiture

On May 3, 2019, the Company sold 100% of the stock of its Amneal Deutschland GmbH subsidiary, which comprised substantially all of the Company's operations in Germany, to EVER Pharma Holding Ges.m.b.H. (“EVER”) for net cash consideration of approximately $3 million which was received in May 2019. The carrying value of the net assets sold was $7 million, including goodwill of $0.5 million. As a result of the sale, the Company recognized a pre-tax loss of $2 million, inclusive of transaction costs and the recognition of accumulated foreign currency translation adjustment losses, within gain (loss) on sale of international businesses, net for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. As part of the disposition, the Company also entered into a license and supply agreement with EVER to supply certain products for an 18 month period.
4. Revenue Recognition
Performance Obligations
The Company’s performance obligation is the supply of finished pharmaceutical and related products to its customers. The Company’s customers consist primarily of major wholesalers, retail pharmacies, managed care organizations, purchasing co-ops, hospitals, government agencies, institutions, and pharmaceutical companies. The Company’s customer contracts generally consist of both a master agreement, which is signed by the Company and its customer, and/or a customer submitted purchase order, which is governed by the terms and conditions of the master agreement. Customers purchase product by direct channel sales from the Company or by indirect channel sales through various distribution channels.
Revenue is recognized when the Company transfers control of its products to the customer, which typically occurs at a point-in-time, either upon shipment or delivery. Substantially all of the Company’s net revenues relate to products which are transferred to the customer at a point-in-time.
The Company offers standard payment terms to its customers and has elected the practical expedient to not adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing, since the period between when the Company transfers the product to the customer and when the customer pays for that product is one year or less. Taxes collected from customers relating to product sales and remitted to governmental authorities are excluded from revenues. The consideration amounts due from customers as a result of product sales are subject to variable consideration, as described further below.
The Company offers standard product warranties which provide assurance that the product will function as expected and in accordance with specifications. Customers cannot purchase warranties separately and these warranties do not give rise to a separate performance obligation.
The Company permits the return of product under certain circumstances, mainly upon product expiration, instances of shipping errors or where product is damaged in transit. The Company accrues for the customer’s right to return as part of its variable consideration. See below for further details.
Variable Consideration
The Company includes an estimate of variable consideration in its transaction price at the time of sale, when control of the product transfers to the customer. Variable consideration includes but is not limited to: chargebacks, distribution fees, rebates, group purchasing organization ("GPO") fees, prompt payment (cash) discounts, consideration payable to the customer, billbacks, Medicaid and other government pricing programs, price protection and shelf stock adjustments, sales returns, and profit shares.
The Company assesses whether or not an estimate of its variable consideration is constrained and has determined that the constraint does not apply, since it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue will not occur in the future when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. The Company’s estimates for variable consideration are adjusted as required at each reporting period for specific known developments that may result in a change in the amount of total consideration it expects to receive.
14


Chargebacks
In the case an indirect customer purchases product from their preferred wholesaler instead of directly from the Company, and the contract price charged to the indirect customer is lower than the wholesaler pricing, the Company pays the direct customer (wholesaler) a chargeback for the price differential. The Company estimates its chargeback accrual based on its estimates of the level of inventory of its products in the distribution channel that remain subject to chargebacks and historical chargeback rates. The estimate of the level of products in the distribution channel is based primarily on data provided by key customers.
Rebates
The Company pays fixed or volume-based rebates to its customers based on a fixed amount, fixed percentage of product sales or based on the achievement of a specified level of purchases. The Company’s rebate accruals are based on actual net sales, contractual rebate rates negotiated with customers, and expected purchase volumes / corresponding tiers based on actual sales to date and forecasted amounts.
Group Purchasing Organization Fees
The Company pays fees to GPOs for administrative services that the GPOs perform in connection with the purchases of product by the GPO participants who are the Company’s customers. The Company’s GPO fee accruals are based on actual net sales, contractual fee rates negotiated with GPOs and the mix of the products in the distribution channel that remain subject to GPO fees.
Prompt Payment (Cash) Discounts
The Company provides customers with prompt payment discounts which may result in adjustments to the price that is invoiced for the product transferred, in the case that payments are made within a defined period. The Company’s prompt payment discount accruals are based on actual net sales and contractual discount rates.
Consideration Payable to the Customer
The Company pays administrative and service fees to its customers based on a fixed percentage of the product price. These fees are not in exchange for a distinct good or service and therefore are recognized as a reduction of the transaction price. The Company accrues for these fees based on actual net sales, contractual fee rates negotiated with the customer and the mix of the products in the distribution channel that remain subject to fees.
Billbacks
In the case an indirect customer purchases product from their preferred wholesaler instead of directly from the Company, and the contract price charged to the indirect customer is higher than contractual pricing, the Company pays the indirect customer a billback for the price differential. The Company estimates its billback accrual based on its estimates of the level of inventory of its products in the distribution channel that remain subject to billbacks and historical billback rates. The estimate of the level of products in the distribution channel is based primarily on data provided by key customers.
Medicaid and Other Government Pricing Programs
The Company complies with required rebates mandated by law under Medicaid and other government pricing programs. The Company estimates its government pricing accruals based on monthly sales, historical experience of claims submitted by the various states and jurisdictions, historical rates and estimated lag time of the rebate invoices.
Price Protection and Shelf Stock Adjustments
The Company provides customers with price protection and shelf stock adjustments which may result in an adjustment to the price charged for the product transferred, based on differences between old and new prices which may be applied to the customer’s on-hand inventory at the time of the price change. The Company accrues for these adjustments when its expected value of an adjustment is greater than zero, based on contractual pricing, actual net sales, accrual rates based on historical average rates, and estimates of the level of inventory of its products in the distribution channel that remain subject to these adjustments. The estimate of the level of products in the distribution channel is based primarily on data provided by key customers.
15


Sales Returns
The Company permits the return of product under certain circumstances, mainly upon product expiration, instances of shipping errors or where product is damaged in transit, and occurrences of product recalls. The Company’s product returns accrual is primarily based on estimates of future product returns based generally on actual net sales, estimates of the level of inventory of its products in the distribution channel that remain subject to returns, estimated lag time of returns and historical return rates. The estimate of the level of products in the distribution channel is based primarily on data provided by key customers.
Profit Shares
For certain product sale arrangements, the Company earns a profit share upon the customer’s sell-through of the product purchased from the Company. The Company estimates its profit shares based on actual net sales, estimates of the level of inventory of its products in the distribution channel that remain subject to profit shares, and historical rates of profit shares earned. The estimate of the level of products in the distribution channel is based primarily on data provided by key customers.
Concentration of Revenue
The Company's three largest customers accounted for approximately 84% and 83% of total gross sales of products for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. The Company's three largest customers accounted for approximately 81% and 80% of total gross sales of products for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively.
Disaggregated Revenue
The Company's significant therapeutic classes for its Generics and Specialty segments and sales channels for its AvKARE segment, as determined based on net revenue for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 are set forth below (in thousands):

5. Alliance and Collaboration
The Company has entered into several alliance, collaboration, license, distribution and similar agreements with respect to certain of its products and services with third-party pharmaceutical companies. The consolidated statements of operations include revenue recognized under agreements the Company has entered into to develop marketing and/or distribution relationships with its partners to fully leverage the technology platform and revenue recognized under development agreements which generally obligate the Company to provide research and development services over multiple periods. The Company's significant arrangements are discussed below.
Levothyroxine License and Supply Agreement; Transition Agreement
On August 16, 2018, the Company entered into a license and supply agreement with Jerome Stevens Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("JSP") for levothyroxine sodium tablets ("Levothyroxine"). This agreement designated the Company as JSP's exclusive commercial partner for Levothyroxine in the U.S. market for a 10-year term commencing on March 22, 2019. Additionally, under this license and supply agreement, the Company accrued the up-front license payment of $50 million on March 22, 2019, which was paid in April 2019. The agreement also provides for the Company to pay a profit share to JSP based on net profits of the Company's sales of Levothyroxine, after considering product costs.
On November 9, 2018, the Company entered into a transition agreement ("Transition Agreement") with Lannett Company (“Lannett”) and JSP. Under the terms of the Transition Agreement, the Company assumed the distribution and marketing of Levothyroxine from Lannett beginning December 1, 2018 through March 22, 2019, ahead of the commencement date of the license and supply agreement with JSP described above.
In accordance with the terms of the Transition Agreement, the Company made $47 million of non-refundable payments to Lannett. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, $37 million, was expensed to cost of goods sold, as the Company sold Levothyroxine (none in the six months ended June 30, 2020). As of December 31, 2018 the Company had a $4 million transition contract liability, which was fully settled in February 2019.
Additionally, during the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company recorded $1 million in cost of sales related to reimbursement due to Lannett for certain of its unsold inventory at the end of the transition period, which was fully settled in March 2020.
Biosimilar Licensing and Supply Agreement
On May 7, 2018, the Company entered into a licensing and supply agreement, with Mabxience S.L., for its biosimilar candidate for Avastin® (bevacizumab). The Company will be the exclusive partner in the U.S. market. The Company will pay development and regulatory milestone payments as well as commercial milestone payments on reaching pre-agreed sales targets in the market to Mabxience, up to $72 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2019 the Company expensed a milestone payment of $1 million (none for the three months ended June 30, 2019) to research and development. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 the Company expensed a milestone payment of $5 million.
Distribution, License, Development and Supply Agreement with AstraZeneca UK Limited
In January 2012, Impax entered into an agreement with AstraZeneca UK Limited ("AstraZeneca") to distribute branded products under the terms of a distribution, license, development and supply Agreement (the "AZ Agreement"). The parties subsequently entered into a First Amendment to the AZ Agreement dated May 31, 2016 (as amended, the "AZ Amendment"). Under the terms of the AZ Agreement, AstraZeneca granted to Impax an exclusive license to commercialize the tablet, orally disintegrating tablet and nasal spray formulations of Zomig® (zolmitriptan) products for the treatment of migraine headaches in the United States and in certain U.S. territories, except during an initial transition period when AstraZeneca fulfilled all orders of Zomig® products on Impax’s behalf and AstraZeneca paid to Impax the gross profit on such Zomig® products. Pursuant to the AZ Amendment, under certain conditions, and depending on the nature and terms of the study agreed to with the FDA, Impax agreed to conduct, at its own expense, the juvenile toxicity study and pediatric study required by the FDA under the Pediatric Research Equity Act ("PREA") for approval of the nasal formulation of Zomig ® for the acute treatment of migraine in pediatric patients ages six through eleven years old, as further described in the study protocol mutually agreed to by the parties (the "PREA Study"). In consideration for Impax conducting the PREA Study at its own expense, the AZ Amendment provides for the total royalty payments payable by Impax to AstraZeneca on net sales of Zomig ® products under the AZ Agreement to be reduced by an aggregate amount of $30 million to be received in quarterly amounts specified in the AZ Amendment beginning from the quarter ended June 30, 2016 and through the quarter ended December 31, 2020 . In the event the royalty reduction amounts exceed the royalty payments payable by Impax to AstraZeneca pursuant to the AZ Agreement in
18


any given quarter, AstraZeneca will be required to pay Impax an amount equal to the difference between the royalty reduction amount and the royalty payment payable by Impax to AstraZeneca. Impax’s commitment to perform the PREA Study may be terminated, without penalty, under certain circumstances as set forth in the AZ Amendment. The Company recognizes the amounts received from AstraZeneca for the PREA Study as a reduction to research and development expense.
In May 2013, Impax’s exclusivity period for branded Zomig® tablets and orally disintegrating tablets expired and Impax launched authorized generic versions of those products in the United States. As discussed above, pursuant to the AZ Amendment, the total royalty payments payable by Impax to AstraZeneca on net sales of Zomig ® products under the AZ Agreement is reduced by certain specified amounts beginning from the quarter ended June 30, 2016 and through the quarter ended December 31, 2020, with such reduced royalty amounts totaling an aggregate amount of $30 million. The Company recorded cost of sales for royalties under this agreement of $5 million and $9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, and $5 million and $9 million for the three and six ended June 30, 2019, respectively.
During the three months ended March 31, 2020, AstraZeneca and the Company agreed to terminate the AZ Agreement and subsequent AZ Amendment effective January 2021.

6. Restructuring and Other Charges
During the six months ended June 30, 2018, in connection with the Combination, the Company committed to a restructuring plan to achieve cost savings. The Company expected to integrate its operations and reduce its combined cost structure through workforce reductions that eliminated duplicative positions and consolidated certain administrative, manufacturing and research and development facilities. In connection with this plan, the Company announced on May 10, 2018 that it intended to close its Hayward, California-based operations.
On July 10, 2019, the Company announced a plan to restructure its operations that was intended to reduce costs and optimize its organizational and manufacturing infrastructure. Pursuant to the restructuring plan as revised, the Company expects to reduce its headcount by approximately 300 to 350 employees through December 31, 2020, primarily by ceasing manufacturing at its Hauppauge, NY facility.  Collectively these actions comprise the "Plans".

7. (Loss) Earnings per Share
Basic (loss) earnings per share of Class A and Class B-1 Common Stock is computed by dividing net (loss) income attributable to Amneal Pharmaceuticals, Inc. by the weighted-average number of shares of Class A and Class B-1 Common Stock outstanding during the period. Diluted (loss) earnings per share of Class A and Class B-1 Common Stock is computed by dividing net (loss) income attributable to Amneal Pharmaceuticals, Inc. by the weighted-average number of shares of Class A and Class B-1 Common Stock outstanding, adjusted to give effect to potentially dilutive securities.
The following table sets forth reconciliations of the numerators and denominators used to compute basic and diluted (loss) earnings per share of Class A and Class B-1 Common Stock (in thousands, except per share amounts):

The weighted-average shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 do not include Class B-1 Common Stock.
Shares of the Company's Class B Common Stock do not share in the earnings or losses of the Company and, therefore, are not participating securities. As such, separate presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share of Class B Common Stock under the two-class method has not been presented.

(1)Excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share of Class A Common Stock because the exercise price of the stock options exceeded the average market price of the Class A Common Stock during the period (out-of-the-money).
(2)Excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share of Class A Common Stock because the performance vesting conditions were not met for the six months ended June 30, 2020.
(3)Shares of Class B Common Stock are considered potentially dilutive shares of Class A and Class B-1 Common Stock. Shares of Class B Common Stock have been excluded from the computations of diluted earnings per share of Class A and Class B-1 Common Stock because the effect of their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive under the if-converted method. As noted above, the weighted-average shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 do not include Class B-1 Common Stock.  
(4)Excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share of Class A and Class B-1 Common Stock because the effect of their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive since there was a net loss attributable to the Company for three months ended June 30, 2020 and the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. As noted above, the weighted-average shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 do not include Class B-1 Common Stock.
8. Income Taxes
For the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company's provision for (benefit from) income taxes and effective tax rates were $2 million and (10.0)% and $(6) million and 10.1%, respectively.
For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company's benefit from income taxes and effective tax rates were $(106) million and 1259.7% and $(14) million and 7.5%, respectively. The year over year change in benefit from income taxes was primarily related to the Company’s full valuation allowance and the effects of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”).
As of September 30, 2019, the Company established a valuation allowance based upon all available objective and verifiable evidence both positive and negative, including historical levels of pre-tax income (loss) both on a consolidated basis and tax reporting entity basis, legislative developments, expectations and risks associated with estimates of future pre-tax income, and prudent and feasible tax planning strategies. The Company estimated that as of September 30, 2019 it had generated a cumulative consolidated three-year pre-tax loss, which continued as of December 31, 2019.  As a result of the initial September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2019 analyses, the Company determined that it remained more likely than not that it would not realize the benefits of its gross deferred tax assets (" DTAs") and therefore recorded an additional valuation allowance of $428 million for the year ended December 31, 2019 to reduce the carrying value of these gross DTAs, net of the impact of the reversal of taxable temporary differences, to zero. As of June 30, 2020, based on its evaluation of available positive and negative evidence, the Company has maintained its position with respect to the valuation allowance.
On March 27, 2020, President Trump signed into law the CARES Act. The CARES Act is an emergency economic stimulus package in response to the COVID-19 pandemic which, among other things, includes provisions relating to income and non-income-based tax laws. Some of the key income tax-related provisions include net operating loss carryback periods, alternative minimum tax credit refunds, modifications to the net interest deduction limitations and technical corrections to tax depreciation methods for qualified improvement property. Some of these tax provisions are effective retroactively for years ending before the date of enactment. Other non-income-based tax provisions include deferral of the employer share of Social Security payroll taxes due from the CARES Act date of enactment through December 31, 2020, and a potential 50% credit on qualified wages against employment taxes each quarter with any excess credits eligible for refunds.
The CARES Act permits net operating loss (“NOL”) carryovers and carrybacks to offset 100% of taxable income for taxable years beginning before 2021. In addition, the CARES Act allows NOLs originating in 2018, 2019, and 2020 to be carried back to each of the five preceding taxable years to generate refunds of previously paid income taxes. As a result of the CARES Act, the Company carried back approximately $345 million in NOLs generated in 2018 to prior taxable income years.
ASC 740, Income Taxes, requires the effect from adjusting deferred tax assets or changes to valuation allowances due to the CARES Act to be recognized as a component of income taxes expense or benefit in the interim period that includes the period in which the new legislation is enacted (quarter ended March 31, 2020), and it cannot be allocated to subsequent interim periods by an adjustment of the estimated annual effective tax rate. In the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company reclassified the 2018 NOL carryback amount for previously paid income taxes to income tax receivable and reversed the corresponding valuation allowance. In carrying back the 2018 loss to an earlier year, the Company is able to benefit the losses at a 35% tax rate rather than the current U.S. corporate tax rate of 21%.  Accordingly, the Company recorded a discrete income tax benefit of $110 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. During July 2020, the Company received a cash refund for $106 million of the $110 million carryback, with the remainder expected to be received before December 31, 2020. 
21


In connection with the Combination, the Company entered into a tax receivable agreement (“TRA”) for which it is generally required to pay the other holders of Amneal Common Units 85% of the applicable tax savings, if any, in U.S. federal and state income tax that it is deemed to realize as a result of certain tax attributes of their Amneal Common Units sold to the Company (or exchanged in a taxable sale) and that are created as a result of (i) the sales of their Amneal Common Units for shares of Class A Common Stock and (ii) tax benefits attributable to payments made under the TRA.  In conjunction with the valuation allowance recorded on the DTAs at September 30, 2019, the Company reversed the TRA liability, which had been recorded at the time of the Combination.
The projection of future taxable income involves significant judgment. Actual taxable income may differ from the Company’s estimates, which could significantly impact the timing of the recognition of the contigent liability under the TRA. As noted above, the Company has determined it is more-likely-than-not it will be unable to utilize all of its DTAs subject to the TRA; therefore, as of June 30, 2020, the Company has not recognized the contingent liability under the TRA related to the tax savings it may realize from common units sold or exchanged. If utilization of these DTAs becomes more likely than not in the future, at such time, Amneal will recognize a liability under the TRA, which amounts to approximately $202 million as of June 30, 2020 as a result of basis adjustments under Internal Revenue Code Section 754.
The timing and amount of any payments under the TRA may vary, depending upon a number of factors including the timing and number of Amneal common units sold or exchanged for the Company's Class A Common Stock, the price of the Company's Class A Common Stock on the date of sale or exchange, the timing and amount of the Company's taxable income, and the tax rate in effect at the time of realization of the Company's taxable income (the TRA liability is determined based on a percentage of the corporate tax savings from the use of the TRA's attributes). Further sales or exchanges occurring subsequent to June 30, 2020 could result in future Amneal tax deductions and obligations to pay 85% of such benefits to the holders of Amneal common units. These obligations could be incremental to and substantially larger than the approximate $202 million contingent liability as of June 30, 2020 described above. Under certain conditions, such as a change of control or other early termination event, the Company could be obligated to make TRA payments in advance of tax benefits being realized.

Any future recognition of these TRA liabilities will be recorded through charges in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.  However, if the tax attributes are not utilized in future years, it is reasonably possible no amounts would be paid under the TRA.  Should the Company determine that a DTA with a valuation allowance is realizable in a subsequent period, the related valuation allowance will be released and if a resulting TRA payment is determined to be probable, a corresponding TRA liability will be recorded.

Senior Secured Credit Facilities
On May 4, 2018 the Company entered into a senior credit agreement that provided a term loan ("Term Loan") with a principal amount of $2.7 billion and an asset backed revolving credit facility ("Revolving Credit Facility") under which loans and letters of credit up to a principal amount of $500 million, of which $414 million were available at June 30, 2020 (principal amount of up to $25 million is available for letters of credit) (collectively, the "Senior Secured Credit Facilities").  The Term Loan is repayable in equal quarterly installments at a rate of 1.00% of the original principal amount annually, with the balance payable at maturity on May 4, 2025. The Term Loan bears a variable annual interest rate, which is one-month LIBOR plus 3.5% at June 30, 2020. The Revolving Credit Facility bears an annual interest rate of one-month LIBOR plus 1.25% at June 30, 2020 and matures on May 4, 2023. The annual interest rate for the Revolving Credit Facility may be reduced or increased by 0.25% based on step-downs and step-ups determined by the average historical excess availability.
The proceeds of any loans made under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities can be used for capital expenditures, acquisitions, working capital needs and other general purposes, subject to covenants as described below. The Company pays a commitment fee based on the average daily unused amount of the Revolving Credit Facility at a rate based on average historical excess availability, between 0.25% and 0.375% per annum. At June 30, 2020, the Revolving Credit Facility commitment fee rate is 0.375% per annum.
During March 2020, as a precautionary measure to mitigate the uncertainty surrounding overall market liquidity due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company borrowed $300 million on the Revolving Credit Facility.  As the financial markets stabilized following a period of high volatility due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company repaid all borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility as of June 30, 2020.
The Company incurred costs associated with the Term Loan due May 2025 of $38 million and the Revolving Credit Facility of $5 million, which have been capitalized and are being amortized over the life of the applicable debt agreement to interest expense using the effective interest method. The Term Loan has been recorded in the balance sheet net of issuance costs. Costs associated with the Revolving Credit Facility have been recorded in other assets because there were no borrowings outstanding on the effective date of the Revolving Credit Facility. For both the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, amortization of deferred financing costs related to the Term Loan and the Revolving Credit Facility was $1 million. For both the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, amortization of deferred financing costs related to the Term Loan and the Revolving Credit Facility was $3 million.
The Senior Secured Credit Facilities contain a number of covenants that, among other things, create liens on Amneal's and its subsidiaries' assets. The Senior Secured Credit Facilities contain certain negative covenants that, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, restrict Amneal’s and its subsidiaries' ability to incur additional debt or guarantees, grant liens, make loans, acquisitions or other investments, dispose of assets, merge, dissolve, liquidate or consolidate, pay dividends or other payments on capital stock, make optional payments or modify certain debt instruments, modify certain organizational documents, enter into arrangements that restrict the ability to pay dividends or grant liens, or enter into or consummate transactions with affiliates. The Revolving Credit Facility also includes a financial covenant whereby Amneal must maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio if certain borrowing conditions are met. The Senior Secured Credit Facilities contain customary events of default, subject to certain exceptions. Upon the occurrence of certain events of default, the obligations under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities may be accelerated and the commitments may be terminated. At June 30, 2020, Amneal was in compliance with all covenants.
Acquisition Financing - Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement
24


On January 31, 2020, in connection with the Acquisitions, Rondo Intermediate Holdings, LLC (“Rondo Holdings”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Rondo, entered into a revolving credit and term loan agreement (“Rondo Credit Facility”) that provided a term loan ("Rondo Term Loan") with a principal amount of $180 million and a revolving credit facility (“Rondo Revolving Credit Facility”) which loans up to a principal amount of $30 million. The Rondo Term Loan is repayable in equal quarterly installments at a rate of 5.0% of the original principal amount annually, with the balance payable at maturity on January 31, 2025. The Rondo Credit Facility bears a variable annual interest rate, which is one-month LIBOR plus 3.0% at June 30, 2020 and matures on January 31, 2025. The annual interest rate for borrowings under the Rondo Credit Facility may be reduced or increased by 0.25% based on step-downs and step-ups determined by the total net leverage ratio, as defined in that agreement.  At June 30, 2020, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the Rondo Revolving Credit Facility.  
A commitment fee based on the average daily unused amount of the Rondo Credit Facility is assessed at a rate based on total net leverage ratio, between 0.25% and 0.50% per annum. At June 30, 2020, the Rondo Credit Facility commitment fee rate is 0.4% per annum.
Costs associated with the Rondo Term Loan of $3 million and the Rondo Credit Facility of $1 million have been capitalized and are being amortized over the life of the applicable debt instrument to interest expense using the effective interest method. The Rondo Term Loan has been recorded in the balance sheet net of issuance costs.  Costs associated with the Rondo Revolving Credit Facility have been recorded in other assets.  For both the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, amortization of deferred financing costs associated with the Rondo Credit Facility was less than $1 million.
The Rondo Credit Facility contains a number of covenants that, among other things, create liens on the equity securities and assets of Rondo Holdings, Rondo, AvKARE, LLC and R&S.  The Rondo Credit Facility contains certain negative, affirmative and financial covenants that, among other things, restrict the ability to incur additional debt, grant liens, transact in mergers and acquisitions, make certain investments and payments or engage in certain transactions with affiliates.  The Rondo Credit Facility also contains customary events of default. Upon the occurrence of certain events of default, the obligations under the Rondo Credit Facility may be accelerated and/ or the interest rate may be increased.  At June 30, 2020, Rondo was in compliance with all covenants.  The Company is not party to the Rondo Credit Facility and is not a guarantor of any debt incurred thereunder.
The Term Loan and Rondo Term Loan require payments of $27 million and $9 million, respectively, per year for the next five years and the balance thereafter.
Acquisition Financing – Notes Payable-Related Party
The Sellers Notes with a stated aggregate principal amount of $44 million and the Short-Term Sellers Note with a stated principal amount of $1 million were issued by Rondo or its subsidiary, Rondo Top Holdings, LLC, on January 31, 2020, the closing date of the Acquisitions.  The Sellers Notes are unsecured and accrue interest at a rate of 5% per annum, not compounded, until June 30, 2025.  The Sellers Notes are subject to prepayment at the option of Rondo, as the obligor, without premium or penalty. Mandatory payment of the outstanding principal and interest is due on June 30, 2025 if certain financial targets are achieved, the borrowers’ cash flows are sufficient (as defined in the Sellers Notes) and repayment is not prohibited by senior debt.   If repayment of all outstanding principal and accrued interest on the Sellers Notes is not made on June 30, 2025, the requirements for repayment are revisited on June 30 of each subsequent year until all principal and accrued interest are satisfied no later than January 31, 2030 or earlier, upon a change in control.  The Short-Term Sellers Note is also unsecured and accrues interest at a rate of 1.6% and is due on January 31, 2020.
In accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations, all consideration transferred was measured at its acquisition-date fair value.  The Sellers Notes were stated at the preliminary fair value estimate of $35 million, which was estimated using the Monte-Carlo simulation approach under the option pricing framework.  The Short-Term Sellers Note of $1 million was recorded at the stated principal amount of $1 million, which approximates fair value.  The $9 million discount on the Sellers Notes will be amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method from January 31, 2020 to June 30, 2025 and the carrying value of the Sellers Notes will accrete to the stated principal amount of $44 million.
The Company is not party to or a guarantor of the Sellers Notes or Short-Term Sellers Notes. The Sellers Notes and the Short-Term Sellers Note are recorded in notes payable-related party within long-term liabilities and notes payable-related party within current liabilities, respectively.

Fair Value Measurements), $8 million of long-term employee benefits for the Company’s international employees and $1 million of long-term severance liabilities (refer to Note 6. Restructuring and Other Charges).
15. Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is the exit price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability. Fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined using assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value should maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. To measure fair value, the Company uses the following fair value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable:
Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 – Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques and also includes instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant judgment or estimation.
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
The Company evaluates its financial assets and liabilities subject to fair value measurements on a recurring basis to determine the appropriate level of classification for each reporting period. The following table sets forth the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 (in thousands):

(1)The fair value measurement of the Company’s interest rate swap classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy is a model-derived valuation as of a given date in which all significant inputs are observable in active markets including certain financial information and certain assumptions regarding past, present, and future market conditions.
(2)As of June 30, 2020, deferred compensation plan liabilities of $4 million and $11 million were recorded in current and non-current liabilities, respectively. As of December 31, 2019, deferred compensation plan liabilities of $4 million and $14 million were recorded in current and non-current liabilities, respectively. These liabilities are recorded at the value of the amount owed to the plan participants, with changes in value recognized as compensation expense. The calculation of the deferred compensation plan obligation is derived from observable market data by reference to hypothetical investments selected by the participants.
There were no transfers between levels in the fair value hierarchy during the six months ended June 30, 2020.
Assets and Liabilities Not Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
The carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their fair values due to the short-term maturity of these instruments.
The $2.6 billion Term Loan falls into the Level 2 category within the fair value level hierarchy. The fair value was determined using market data for valuation. The fair value of the Term Loan at both June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 was approximately $2.4 billion.
The $178 million Rondo Term Loan entered into on January 31, 2020 falls into the Level 2 category within the fair value level hierarchy. The fair value of the Rondo Term Loan at June 30, 2020 was approximately $174 million.
The Sellers Notes and the Short-Term Sellers Note fall into the Level 2 category within the fair value level hierarchy. At June 30, 2020, the carrying value of the Sellers Notes and the Short-Term Sellers Note of $36 million and $1 million, respectively, approximate their fair values.
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis
There were no non-recurring fair value measurements during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.
16. Financial Instruments
The Company uses an interest rate swap to manage its exposure to market risks for changes in interest rates.
Interest Rate Risk
The Company is exposed to interest rate risk on its debt obligations.  Interest income earned on cash and cash equivalents may fluctuate as interest rates change; however, due to their relatively short maturities, the Company does not hedge these assets or their investment cash flows because the impact of interest rate risk is not material. The Company's debt obligations consist of variable-rate and fixed-rate debt instruments (for further details, refer to Note 13. Debt).  The Company's primary objective is to achieve the lowest overall cost of funding while managing the variability in cash outflows within an acceptable range.  In order to achieve this objective, the Company has entered into an interest rate swap on the Term Loan.
Interest Rate Derivative – Cash Flow Hedge
The interest rate swap involves the periodic exchange of payments without the exchange of underlying principal or notional amounts. In October 2019, the Company entered into an interest rate lock agreement for a total notional amount of $1.3 billion to hedge part of the Company's interest rate exposure associated with the variability in future cash flows from changes in the one-month LIBOR associated with its Term Loan.
As of June 30, 2020, the total loss, net of income taxes, related to the Company’s cash flow hedge was $56 million, of which $28 million was recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss and $28 million was recognized in non-controlling interests (none as of June 30, 2019).

17. Commitments and Contingencies
Commitments
Commercial Manufacturing, Collaboration, License, and Distribution Agreements
The Company continues to seek to enhance its product line and develop a balanced portfolio of differentiated products through product acquisitions and in-licensing. Accordingly, the Company, in certain instances, may be contractually obligated to make potential future development, regulatory, and commercial milestone, royalty and/or profit sharing payments in conjunction with collaborative agreements or acquisitions that the Company has entered into with third parties. The Company has also licensed certain technologies or intellectual property from various third parties. The Company is generally required to make upfront payments as well as other payments upon successful completion of regulatory or sales milestones. The agreements generally permit the Company to terminate the agreement with no significant continuing obligation. The Company could be required to make significant payments pursuant to these arrangements. These payments are contingent upon the occurrence of certain future events and, given the nature of these events, it is unclear when, if ever, the Company may be required to pay such amounts. Further, the timing of any future payment is not reasonably estimable. Certain of these arrangements are with related parties (refer to Note 19. Related Party Transactions).
Contingencies
Legal Proceedings
The Company's legal proceedings are complex, constantly evolving and subject to uncertainty. As such, the Company cannot predict the outcome or impact of the legal proceedings set forth below. Additionally, the Company is subject to legal proceedings that are not set forth below. While the Company believes it has valid claims and/or defenses to the matters described below, the nature of litigation is unpredictable, and the outcome of the following proceedings could include damages, fines, penalties and injunctive or administrative remedies. For any proceedings where losses are probable and reasonably capable of estimation, the Company accrues for a potential loss. While these accruals have been deemed reasonable by the Company’s management, the assessment process relies heavily on estimates and assumptions that may ultimately prove inaccurate or incomplete. Additionally, unforeseen circumstances or events may lead the Company to subsequently change its estimates and assumptions. Unless otherwise indicated below, the Company is at this time unable to estimate the possible loss, if any, associated with such litigation.
The Company currently intends to vigorously prosecute and/or defend these proceedings as appropriate. From time to time, however, the Company may settle or otherwise resolve these matters on terms and conditions that it believes to be in its best interest. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded net charges of approximately $1 million and $6 million, respectively, for commercial legal proceedings and claims.  The ultimate resolution of any or all claims, legal proceedings or investigations could differ materially from our estimate and have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations and/or cash flow in any given accounting period, or on the Company's overall financial condition.  As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had liabilities for commercial and governmental legal proceedings and claims of $16 million and $17 million, respectively.
Additionally, the Company manufactures and derives a portion of its revenue from the sale of pharmaceutical products in the opioid class of drugs, and may therefore face claims arising from the regulation and/or consumption of such products.
Although the outcome and costs of the asserted and unasserted claims is difficult to predict, based on the information presently known to management, the Company does not currently expect the ultimate liability, if any, for such matters to have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
Medicaid Reimbursement and Price Reporting Matters
28


The Company is required to provide pricing information to state agencies, including agencies that administer federal Medicaid programs. Certain state agencies have alleged that manufacturers have reported improper pricing information, which allegedly caused them to overpay reimbursement costs. Other agencies have alleged that manufacturers have failed to timely file required reports concerning pricing information. Reserves are periodically established by the Company for any potential claims or settlements of overpayment. The Company intends to vigorously defend against any such claims. The ultimate settlement of any potential liability for such claims may be higher or lower than estimated.
Patent Litigation
There is substantial litigation in the pharmaceutical, biological, and biotechnology industries with respect to the manufacture, use, and sale of new products which are the subject of conflicting patent and intellectual property claims. One or more patents often cover the brand name products for which the Company is developing generic versions and the Company typically has patent rights covering the Company’s branded products.
Under federal law, when a drug developer files an Abbreviated New Drug Application ("ANDA") for a generic drug seeking approval before expiration of a patent which has been listed with the FDA as covering the brand name product, the developer must certify its product will not infringe the listed patent(s) and/or the listed patent is invalid or unenforceable (commonly referred to as a "Paragraph IV" certification). Notices of such certification must be provided to the patent holder, who may file a suit for patent infringement within 45 days of the patent holder’s receipt of such notice. If the patent holder files suit within the 45-day period, the FDA can review and tentatively approve the ANDA, but generally is prevented from granting final marketing approval of the product until a final judgment in the action has been rendered in favor of the generic drug developer, or 30 months from the date the notice was received, whichever is sooner. The Company’s Generics segment is typically subject to patent infringement litigation brought by branded pharmaceutical manufacturers in connection with the Company’s Paragraph IV certifications seeking an order delaying the approval of the Company’s ANDA until expiration of the patent(s) at issue in the litigation. Likewise, the Company’s Specialty segment is currently involved in patent infringement litigation against generic drug manufacturers that have filed Paragraph IV certifications to market their generic drugs prior to expiration of the Company’s patents at issue in the litigation.
The uncertainties inherent in patent litigation make the outcome of such litigation difficult to predict. For the Company’s Generics segment, the potential consequences in the event of an unfavorable outcome in such litigation include delaying launch of its generic products until patent expiration. If the Company were to launch its generic product prior to successful resolution of a patent litigation, the Company could be liable for potential damages measured by the profits lost by the branded product manufacturer rather than the profits earned by the Company if it is found to infringe a valid, enforceable patent, or enhanced treble damages in cases of willful infringement. For the Company’s Specialty segment, an unfavorable outcome may significantly accelerate generic competition ahead of expiration of the patents covering the Company’s branded products. All such litigation typically involves significant expense.
The Company is generally responsible for all of the patent litigation fees and costs associated with current and future products not covered by its alliance and collaboration agreements. The Company has agreed to share legal expenses with respect to third-party and Company products under the terms of certain of the alliance and collaboration agreements. The Company records the costs of patent litigation as expense in the period when incurred for products it has developed, as well as for products which are the subject of an alliance or collaboration agreement with a third-party.
Patent Infringement Matter
Impax Laboratories, LLC. v. Zydus Pharmaceuticals USA, Inc. and Cadila Healthcare Ltd. (Rytary®)
On December 21, 2017, Impax filed suit against Zydus Pharmaceuticals USA, Inc. and Cadila Healthcare Ltd. (collectively, "Zydus") in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey, alleging infringement of U.S. Patent No. 9,089,608, based on the filing of Zydus’s ANDA relating to carbidopa and levodopa extended release capsules, generic to Rytary®. Zydus answered the complaint on April 27, 2018, asserting counterclaims of non-infringement and invalidity of U.S. Pat. Nos. 7,094,427; 8,377,474; 8,454,998; 8,557,283; and 9,089,607. Impax answered Zydus’s counterclaims on June 1, 2018. Zydus filed a motion for judgment on the pleadings regarding its counterclaims. On November 29, 2018, the Court granted Zydus’s motion for judgment as to its counterclaims. A case schedule had been set with trial anticipated in April 2020, which was postponed indefinitely due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The parties thereafter reached a settlement agreement on or about May 15, 2020, and the case has been dismissed.
Other Litigation Related to the Company’s Business
29


Opana ER® FTC Antitrust Litigation
On February 25, 2014, Impax received a Civil Investigative Demand (“CID”) from the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) concerning its investigation into the drug Opana® ER and its generic equivalents. On March 30, 2016, the FTC filed a complaint against Impax, Endo Pharmaceuticals Inc. ("Endo"), and others in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, alleging that Impax and Endo violated antitrust laws when they entered into a June 2010 co-promotion and development agreement and a June 2010 settlement agreement that resolved patent litigation in connection with the submission of Impax’s ANDA for generic original Opana® ER. In July 2016, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss the complaint, and a motion to sever the claims regarding Opana® ER from claims with respect to a separate settlement agreement that was challenged by the FTC. On October 20, 2016, the Court granted the motion to sever, formally terminating the suit against Impax, with an order that the FTC re-file no later than November 3, 2016 and dismissed the motion to dismiss as moot. On October 25, 2016, the FTC filed a notice of voluntary dismissal. On January 19, 2017, the FTC filed a Part 3 Administrative complaint against Impax with similar allegations regarding Impax’s June 2010 settlement agreement with Endo that resolved patent litigation in connection with the submission of Impax’s ANDA for generic original Opana® ER. Impax filed its answer to the Administrative Complaint on February 7, 2017. Trial concluded on November 15, 2017. On May 11, 2018, the Administrative Law Judge ruled in favor of Impax and dismissed the case in its entirety. The government appealed this ruling to the FTC. On March 28, 2019, the FTC issued an Opinion & Order reversing the Administrative Law Judge’s initial dismissal decision. The FTC found that Impax had violated Section 5 of the FTC Act by engaging in an unfair method of competition, and accordingly entered an order enjoining Impax from entering into anticompetitive reverse patent settlements (or agreements with other generic original Opana® ER manufacturers) and requiring Impax to maintain an antitrust compliance program. On June 6, 2019, Impax filed a Petition for Review of the FTC’s Opinion & Order with the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit.  Impax filed its opening appellate brief with the Fifth Circuit on October 3, 2019; the FTC filed its brief in response on December 9, 2019 and Impax filed a reply brief on December 30, 2019.  Oral argument before the Fifth Circuit, which had been postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, was heard on June 9, 2020.
On July 12, 2019, the Company received a CID from the FTC concerning an August 2017 settlement agreement between Impax and Endo, which resolved a dispute between the parties regarding, and amended, the above-referenced June 2010 settlement agreement related to Opana® ER. The Company has been cooperating and intends to continue cooperating with the FTC regarding the CID. However, no assurance can be given as to the timing or outcome of the FTC’s underlying investigation.
Opana ER® Antitrust Litigation
From June 2014 to April 2015, 14 complaints styled as class actions on behalf of direct purchasers and indirect purchasers (also known as end-payors) and several separate individual complaints on behalf of certain direct purchasers (the “opt-out plaintiffs”) were filed against the manufacturer of the brand drug Opana ER® and Impax.
The direct purchaser plaintiffs comprise Value Drug Company and Meijer Inc. The end-payor plaintiffs comprise the Fraternal Order of Police, Miami Lodge 20, Insurance Trust Fund; Wisconsin Masons’ Health Care Fund; Massachusetts Bricklayers; Pennsylvania Employees Benefit Trust Fund; International Union of Operating Engineers, Local 138 Welfare Fund; Louisiana Health Service & Indemnity Company d/b/a Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Louisiana; Kim Mahaffay; and Plumbers & Pipefitters Local 178 Health & Welfare Trust Fund. The opt-out plaintiffs comprise Walgreen Co.; The Kroger Co.; Safeway, Inc.; HEB Grocery Company L.P.; Albertson’s LLC; Rite Aid Corporation; Rite Aid Hdqtrs. Corp.; and CVS Pharmacy, Inc.
On December 12, 2014, the United States Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation (the "JPML") ordered the pending class actions transferred to the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois (“N.D. Ill.”) for coordinated pretrial proceedings, as In Re: Opana ER Antitrust Litigation (MDL No. 2580). (Actions subsequently filed in other jurisdictions also were transferred by the JPML to the N.D. Ill. to be coordinated or consolidated with the coordinated proceedings, and the District Court likewise has consolidated the opt-out plaintiffs’ actions with the direct purchaser class actions for pretrial purposes.)
In each case, the complaints allege that Endo engaged in an anticompetitive scheme by, among other things, entering into an anticompetitive settlement agreement with Impax to delay generic competition of Opana ER® and in violation of state and federal antitrust laws. Plaintiffs seek, among other things, unspecified monetary damages and equitable relief, including disgorgement and restitution. Discovery, including expert discovery, is ongoing. On March 25, 2019, plaintiffs filed motions for class certification and served opening expert reports. Defendants’ oppositions to class certification and rebuttal expert reports were filed and served on August 29, 2019. On November 5, 2019, plaintiffs filed reply briefs in further support of their motions for class certification.  On January 17, 2020, defendants filed a motion for leave to file joint surreply briefs in response thereto; plaintiffs filed responses on January 24, 2020.  On February 5, 2020, the court granted defendants’ motion for leave, and entered a case schedule to which the parties jointly stipulated, setting a trial date of March 15, 2021, which the MDL court later
30


re-set for June 7, 2021 in light of COVID-19 pandemic-related delays. On April 15, 2020, defendants filed motions for summary judgment.
The Company believes it has substantial meritorious defenses to the claims asserted with respect to the litigation. However, any adverse outcome could negatively affect the Company and could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations, cash flows and/or overall financial condition.
Attorney General of the State of Connecticut Interrogatories and Subpoena Duces Tecum
On July 14, 2014, Impax received a subpoena and interrogatories (the "Subpoena") from the State of Connecticut Attorney General ("Connecticut AG") concerning its investigation into sales of Impax's generic product, digoxin. According to the Connecticut AG, the investigation is to determine whether anyone engaged in a contract, combination or conspiracy in restraint of trade or commerce which has the effect of (i) fixing, controlling or maintaining prices or (ii) allocating or dividing customers or territories relating to the sale of digoxin in violation of Connecticut state antitrust law. The Company has produced documents and information in response to the Subpoena. However, no assurance can be given as to the timing or outcome of this investigation.
United States Department of Justice Investigations
On November 6, 2014, Impax disclosed that one of its sales representatives received a grand jury subpoena from the Antitrust Division of the United States Department of Justice (the "DOJ"). In connection with this same investigation, on March 13, 2015, Impax received a grand jury subpoena from the DOJ requesting the production of information and documents regarding the sales, marketing, and pricing of certain generic prescription medications. In particular, the DOJ’s investigation currently focuses on four generic medications: digoxin tablets, terbutaline sulfate tablets, prilocaine/lidocaine cream, and calcipotriene topical solution. The Company has produced documents and information in connection with the investigation. However, no assurance can be given as to the timing or outcome of the investigation.
On April 30, 2018, Impax received a CID from the Civil Division of the DOJ (the "Civil Division"). The CID requests the production of information and documents regarding the pricing and sale of Impax’s pharmaceuticals and Impax’s interactions with other generic pharmaceutical manufacturers. According to the CID, the investigation concerns allegations that generic pharmaceutical manufacturers, including Impax, engaged in market allocation and price-fixing agreements, paid illegal remuneration, and caused false claims to be submitted to the Federal government. The Company has produced documents and information in connection with the Civil Division’s investigation. However, no assurance can be given as to the timing or outcome of the investigation.
Texas State Attorney General Civil Investigative Demand
On May 27, 2014, a CID was served on Amneal by the Office of the Attorney General for the state of Texas (the "Texas AG") relating to products distributed by Amneal under a specific Amneal labeler code. Shortly thereafter, Amneal received a second CID with respect to the same products sold by Interpharm Holding, Inc. ("Interpharm"), the assets of which had been acquired by Amneal in June 2008. Amneal completed its production of the direct and indirect sales transaction data in connection with the products at issue and provided this information to the Texas AG in November 2015. In May 2016, the Texas AG delivered two settlement demands to Amneal in connection with alleged overpayments made by the State of Texas for such products under its Medicaid programs. For the Amneal and Interpharm products at issue, the Texas AG’s initial demand was for an aggregate total of $36 million based on $16 million in alleged overpayments.  After analyzing the Texas AG’s demand, Amneal raised certain questions regarding the methodology used in the Texas AG’s overpayment calculations, including the fact that the calculations treated all pharmacy claims after 2012 for the products at issue as claims for over-the-counter ("OTC") drugs, even though the products were prescription pharmaceuticals. This had the effect of increasing the alleged overpayment because the dispensing fee for OTC drugs was lower than that for prescription drugs. Therefore, the Texas AG’s calculations were derived by subtracting a lower (and incorrect) OTC dispensing fee from the higher (and correct) prescription dispensing fee. The Texas AG later acknowledged this discrepancy. In March 2019, the Texas AG provided Amneal with a re-calculation of the alleged overpayment.  In October 2019, Amneal reached an agreement in principle with the Texas AG to settle the matter.  The parties executed a Settlement Agreement and Release as of March 5, 2020, and the matter is now closed.    
In Re Generic Pharmaceuticals Pricing Antitrust Litigation
Beginning in March 2016, numerous complaints styled as antitrust class actions on behalf of direct purchasers and indirect purchasers (or end-payors) and several separate individual complaints on behalf of certain direct and indirect purchasers (the

Prescription Opioid Litigation
The Company and certain of its affiliates have been named as defendants in various matters relating to the promotion and sale of prescription opioid pain relievers. The Company is aware that other individuals and states and political subdivisions are filing comparable actions against, among others, manufacturers and parties that have promoted and sold prescription opioid pain relievers, and additional suits may be filed.
The complaints, asserting claims under provisions of different state and Federal law, generally contend that the defendants allegedly engaged in improper marketing of opioids, and seek a variety of remedies, including restitution, civil penalties, disgorgement of profits, treble damages, attorneys’ fees and injunctive relief. None of the complaints specifies the exact amount of damages at issue. The Company and its affiliates that are defendants in the various lawsuits deny all allegations asserted in these complaints and have filed or intend to file motions to dismiss where possible. The Company intends to continue to vigorously defend these cases. In light of the inherent uncertainties of civil litigation, the Company is not in a position to predict the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome or provide an estimate of the amount or range of potential loss in the event of an unfavorable outcome in any of these matters.

Plaintiffs request past damages and restitution for monies allegedly spent by the State of Arkansas and the county and city plaintiffs for “extraordinary and additional services” for responding to what plaintiffs term the “Arkansas Opioid Epidemic.” Plaintiffs also seek prospective damages to allow them to “comprehensively intervene in the Arkansas Opioid Epidemic,” punitive and treble damages as provided by law, and their costs and fees.

The case has been designated as a bellwether motion to dismiss case for the MDL, meaning it is a test case for arguments directed at the complaints filed by Indian tribes in the MDL cases. On August 31, 2018, the Company moved to dismiss the First Amended Complaint, and also joined in separate motions to dismiss filed by different defense subgroups. Plaintiff opposed these motions. Additionally, on September 28, 2018, plaintiff filed a motion to add Amneal and Amneal Pharmaceuticals of New York, LLC, and to dismiss the Company from the complaint. The Company opposed that motion, and plaintiff filed a reply on October 19, 2018.

On October 8, 2018, following the Court’s denial of its remand motion, plaintiff voluntarily dismissed its Complaint without prejudice.

The co-defendants removed the case to federal court, but the federal court re-remanded the case to state court.  Plaintiff initially amended its complaint in state court and attempted to name Amneal as a defendant; however, plaintiff did not serve that complaint on Amneal. On February 7, 2020, plaintiff filed a second amended complaint that did not name Amneal as a defendant.  Accordingly, Amneal is not presently a defendant in this lawsuit.

Nine other Virginia municipalities have filed identical complaints naming the same defendants, but none have been served on the Company or its affiliates. The unserved Virginia cases were removed to federal court and subsequently transferred to the MDL.  On April 24, 2019, the Martinsville Circuit Court stayed this case until it is determined whether the other Virginia cases that were removed to federal court will be remanded, or until the parties or the court may determine whether consolidation of this case with others is possible in Virginia state court. The removed cases were transferred to the MDL, but this case remains stayed in state court.

itself and similarly situated Kentucky health departments, as a result of their role in responding to an alleged “opioid epidemic.”  Plaintiff requests an unspecified amount of damages against the defendants. All activity in the case is stayed by order of the MDL court.
In February and March 2019, the Aleutian Pribilof Islands Association and Alaska Native Tribal Health Consortium requested that the Company execute waivers of service in their cases pending in the MDL. Plaintiffs’ complaints name the Company and 37 other entities as defendants. Plaintiffs allege damages and seek injunctive relief, compensatory and statutory damages, “as well as the means to abate the epidemic” that they allege was “created by Defendants’ wrongful and/or unlawful conduct.” All activity in these cases is stayed by order of the MDL court.
In March 2019, Glynn County, Georgia, requested waivers of service from the Company and Amneal in its case pending in the MDL. Plaintiff’s second amended short-form complaint, filed against Amneal and 39 other defendants consisting of pharmaceutical companies, wholesalers, retailers, and distributors, alleges damages as a result of defendants’ alleged improper marketing, fraud, including RICO violations, failure to adequately warn of the risks of opioid medications, failure to properly monitor and control diversion of opioid medications in or affecting Glynn County, negligence, public nuisance, and unjust enrichment. All activity in the case is stayed by order of the MDL court.
On March 14, 2019, the City of Concord, New Hampshire, filed a short-form amendment to its Second Amended Complaint in the MDL court adding the Company, Amneal, and Impax, to 31 other defendants, including pharmaceutical companies, corporate officers of certain brand manufacturer pharmaceutical companies, and distributors. As to the Company, Amneal, and Impax, plaintiff asserts claims for violation of the New Hampshire Consumer Protection Act, public nuisance, unjust enrichment, and violation of RICO. Plaintiff alleges that defendants are liable for economic injuries experienced by plaintiff, including unspecified restitution, civil penalties, disgorgement of unjust enrichment and attorneys’ fees, as well as for injunctive relief as to defendants’ further false or misleading statements as to opioids, and for exemplary damages. Amneal was served on April 25, 2019. All activity in the case is stayed by order of the MDL court.
On March 15, 2019, the International Union of Painters and Allied Trades, District Council No. 21 Welfare Fund, and, separately, the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers Local 98 Health & Welfare Fund, and International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers Local 98 Sound and Communications Health and Welfare Fund, filed complaints in the Philadelphia County Common Pleas Court, naming Amneal, Impax, Amneal Pharmaceuticals of New York, LLC, and 29 other pharmaceutical companies as defendants. In each, plaintiffs allege that the defendants are liable for economic injuries allegedly suffered by the respective funds to the extent those funds paid for long term treatment of their benefit members with opioids, and for the costs incurred in addressing an alleged “opioid epidemic.” Plaintiffs request an unspecified amount of damages against the defendants. On April 17, 2019, Amneal and Amneal Pharmaceuticals of New York, LLC were served with both complaints. On January 7, 2020, Karen Davidson, individually and as administratrix of the estate of John C. Davidson, filed a complaint in the Philadelphia County Common Pleas Court, naming the Company and Amneal, among other parties, as defendants. All three cases have been transferred to Delaware County, Pennsylvania, where numerous other opioid cases currently are pending. The cases are now stayed by order of the Delaware County court.
In March 2019, the State of New Mexico filed a Second Amended Complaint in its case pending against numerous generic drug manufacturers and distributors in the First District Court of Santa Fe County, naming as defendants Amneal and Amneal Pharmaceuticals of New York, LLC. Plaintiff seeks unspecified damages, and injunctive relief, “to eliminate the hazard to public health and safety caused by the opioid epidemic, to abate the nuisance, and to recoup State monies that have been spent” on account of defendants’ alleged “false, deceptive and unfair marketing and/or unlawful diversion of prescription opioids.” On July 17, 2019, the Amneal entities moved to dismiss for lack of personal jurisdiction and failure to state a claim upon which relief can be granted. On October 15, 2019, the court entered an order dismissing the plaintiff’s negligence per se claims, but declining to dismiss the Amneal entities for lack of personal jurisdiction.  The Amneal entities timely filed answers and moved for reconsideration of their jurisdictional motion on January 21, 2020. On March 27, 2020, the court held oral argument and denied the motion for reconsideration from the bench. The court entered an order denying the motion for reconsideration, without explanation, on April 6, 2020.  The parties are now engaged in discovery.
In April 2019, several Virginia municipalities (the County Board of Arlington, Dinwiddie County, and Mecklenburg County) filed Complaints in their respective local circuit courts against the Company, Amneal, Amneal Pharmaceuticals of New York, LLC, and Impax along with numerous additional generic drug manufacturers, distributors, and pharmacies. In each Complaint, plaintiffs seek unspecified damages and equitable relief, alleging that defendants were negligent and/or grossly negligent in flooding the relevant municipalities with prescription opioid medications and engaged in civil conspiracies to do so. Each case had been removed to the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, but all three since have been remanded back to Virginia state court.  The Company was nonsuited (dismissed) from the Arlington case.  Amended Complaints were
38


filed in the Dinwiddie and Mecklenburg cases at the end of November 2019, but they did not include the Amneal entities as defendants.  
On June 10, 2019, in their cases currently pending in the MDL, West Virginia municipal-entity plaintiffs Cabell County Commission and the City of Huntington were granted leave to file, then filed, a Joint and Third Amended Complaint naming approximately 20 additional defendants, including the Company, Amneal, Amneal Pharmaceuticals of New York, LLC, and Impax. The plaintiff municipalities, seek unspecified actual, treble, and punitive damages and disgorgement “to eliminate the hazard to public health and safety, to abate the public nuisance caused by the opioid epidemic in the City and County and to compensate both for abatement measures undertaken or underway and damages sustained as a result of the opioid epidemic” they allege the defendants “proximately caused.” These actions have been designated “Track Two” bellwether cases by the MDL court (intended to be adjudicated following the “Track One” cases for which bellwether trials had been scheduled for October 2019). On December 31, 2018, the MDL court entered an Order directing the then-parties in these Track Two actions to work with one of the MDL court's appointed Special Masters to prepare case management deadlines. On May 12, 2019, the Special Master entered an Order acknowledging that the press of issues surrounding ongoing litigation of the Track One cases had prevented both the parties and the MDL court from acting on the directives of the prior Track Two Order, and setting deadlines of June 10, 2019 for plaintiffs to amend their complaints, and June 14, 2019 for the submission of proposals for case management by the then-parties to the cases (the Amneal entities were not served with plaintiffs’ Third Amended Complaints until June 25, 2019).  On December 16, 2019, the MDL court granted plaintiffs’ motion to sever all defendants from the Track Two cases except certain distributor defendants (AmerisourceBergen Drug Corporation, Cardinal Health, Inc., and McKesson Corporation). On January 3, 2020, the MDL court ordered that plaintiffs cannot take discovery of any severed Track Two defendant. On January 14, 2020, the Track Two cases were remanded to the United States District Court for the Southern District of West Virginia, without the severed defendants. To the extent Amneal entities were defendants in the Track Two cases but have been severed, the cases are now stayed by order of the MDL court.
In October 2019, the Company, Amneal, Amneal Pharmaceuticals of New York, LLC, and Impax were served with a putative class action complaint, which also names as defendants numerous manufacturers of opioid products (and certain corporate officers thereof), filed in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee by several individuals who allegedly purchased prescription opioid medication in cash and/or with an insurance co-payment (Rhodes, et al., v. Rhodes Technologies, Inc., et al., No. 3:19-cv-885). Plaintiffs claim that they would not have purchased these prescription opioid products had defendants not allegedly misrepresented the products’ “addiction propensities,” and thereby suffered economic loss. Plaintiffs purport to represent a nationwide class of all individuals who directly or indirectly purchased prescription opioid medication from January 2008 to the present in 31 different states, allege causes of action for violations of those states’ antitrust laws and consumer protection statutes (and unjust enrichment), and seek, in addition to class certification, unspecified monetary damages (including actual, statutory, and punitive or treble damages) and equitable relief, including declaratory judgment and restitution. On February 13, 2020, this case was transferred to the MDL. All activity in the case is stayed by order of the MDL court.
There are currently 26 cases brought by various West Virginia and Kentucky hospitals that have been consolidated in the state-court West Virginia Opioid Litigation Multi-Litigation Panel (the “MLP”). On November 20, 2019, the manufacturer defendants collectively filed a motion to dismiss, in which Amneal joined, and the Company filed its own individual motion to dismiss. The MLP has denied the manufacturer defendants’ motion to dismiss, but has not yet ruled on the Company’s separate motion.  There also are five additional cases brought by West Virginia municipalities against the Company, Amneal, Amneal Pharmaceuticals of New York, LLC, and Impax which have been transferred to the MLP. The Amneal entities filed motions to dismiss in those cases on June 12, 2020. The MLP also ordered an early mediation on February 26 and 27, 2020, during which plaintiffs did not make a settlement demand. The MLP has ordered a public nuisance bench trial to occur beginning on March 22, 2021. Defendants have filed a motion for reconsideration of the order denying a jury trial.
Including the above-referenced cases, the Company and certain of its affiliates recently have been named in approximately 929 cases now pending in the MDL court or in various state and territorial courts, including cases brought by:
Political subdivision / municipal entity plaintiffs from the states of Alabama, Arkansas, Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Puerto Rico, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Vermont, Virginia, Washington, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and Wyoming;
Third-party payor plaintiffs;
Individual plaintiffs;
Indian tribe plaintiffs; and
Hospital / healthcare provider plaintiffs.
39


Requests for waivers for service of process have been transmitted by plaintiffs’ counsel to defense counsel in relation to the Company and certain of its affiliates in most of these cases. In each case where service on the Company or its affiliates has been perfected, and the case is not stayed, responsive pleadings or pre-answer motions have been filed.
The Company believes it has substantial meritorious defenses to the claims asserted with respect to the litigation.  However, any adverse outcome could negatively affect the Company and could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations, cash flows and/or overall financial condition.
Securities Class Actions
On April 17, 2017, lead plaintiff New York Hotel Trades Council & Hotel Association of New York City, Inc. Pension Fund filed an amended class action complaint in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California on behalf of itself and others similarly situated against Impax and four current or former Impax officers alleging violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 (Fleming v. Impax Laboratories Inc., et al., No. 4:16-cv-6557-HSG). Plaintiff asserts claims regarding alleged misrepresentations about three generic drugs. Its principal claim alleges that Impax concealed that it colluded with competitor Lannett Corp. to fix the price of generic drug digoxin, and that its digoxin profits stemmed from this collusive pricing. Plaintiff also alleges that Impax concealed from the market anticipated erosion in the price of generic drug diclofenac and that Impax overstated the value of budesonide, a generic drug that it acquired from Teva. On June 1, 2017, Impax filed its motion to dismiss the amended complaint. On September 7, 2018, the Court granted Impax’s motion, dismissing plaintiff’s claims without prejudice and with leave to amend the complaint. Plaintiff filed a second amended complaint October 26, 2018. Impax filed a motion to dismiss the second amended complaint on December 6, 2018; plaintiffs’ opposition thereto was filed on January 17, 2019; and Impax’s reply in support of its motion to dismiss was filed on February 7, 2019. A hearing before the Court on the motion to dismiss took place on May 2, 2019.  On August 12, 2019, the Court entered an order granting Impax’s motion, dismissing plaintiff’s second amended complaint with prejudice.  On September 5, 2019, plaintiff filed a notice of appeal from both dismissal orders with the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit.  Plaintiff’s opening brief was filed with the Ninth Circuit on February 14, 2020, Impax’s answering brief was filed on May 15, 2020, and plaintiff filed its reply brief on August 4, 2020.
On December 18, 2019, Cambridge Retirement System filed a class action complaint in the Superior Court of New Jersey, Somerset County, on behalf of itself and others similarly situated against the Company and fourteen current or former officers alleging violations of Sections 11, 12(a)(2) and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933 (Cambridge Retirement System v. Amneal Pharmaceuticals, Inc., et al., No. SOM-L-1701-19). Plaintiff principally alleges that the amended registration statement and prospectus issued on May 7, 2018 in connection with the Amneal/Impax business combination was materially false and/or misleading, insofar as it purportedly failed to disclose that Amneal was an active participant in an alleged antitrust conspiracy with several other pharmaceutical manufacturers to fix generic drug prices, and that this secret collusion improperly bolstered Amneal’s financial results reflected in the registration statement. Plaintiff seeks, among other things, certification of a class and unspecified compensatory and/or recessionary damages. On March 31, 2020, the Company filed a motion to dismiss the complaint. Oral argument on the motion to dismiss was held telephonically on July 14, 2020 and, on July 15, 2020, the court entered an order denying the motion.
The Company believes it has substantial meritorious defenses to the claims asserted with respect to the litigation. However, any adverse outcome could negatively affect the Company and could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations, cash flows and/or overall financial condition.  
United States Department of Justice / Drug Enforcement Administration Subpoenas
On July 7, 2017, Amneal Pharmaceuticals of New York, LLC received an administrative subpoena issued by the Long Island, NY District Office of the Drug Enforcement Administration (the “DEA”) requesting information related to compliance with certain recordkeeping and reporting requirements pursuant to regulations promulgated by the DEA. The Company is cooperating with this request for information and has provided relevant information responsive to the request. The Company and the U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of New York (“E.D.N.Y.”) have entered into a tolling agreement (and several amendments thereto) with respect to the investigation. The material provisions of the tolling agreement (as amended) provide that the investigation is ongoing, that the U.S. Attorney will not file a claim against the Company on or before November 11, 2020, and requests that the Company agree that the applicable statute(s) of limitations be tolled during the period from January 19, 2018 through November 12, 2020. The Company cannot predict at this time whether the U.S. Attorney will file a lawsuit or other claims against the Company with respect to the investigation.
On March 14, 2019, Amneal received a subpoena (the “Subpoena”) from an Assistant U.S. Attorney (“AUSA”) for the Southern District of Florida. The Subpoena requests information and documents generally related to the marketing, sale, and
40


distribution of oxymorphone. The Company has produced documents and information to the AUSA in response to the Subpoena. However, no assurance can be given as to the timing or outcome of its underlying investigation.
On May 28, 2019, Amneal received a subpoena (the “Subpoena”) from an AUSA for the E.D.N.Y. requesting information and documents generally related to the Company’s compliance with Controlled Substances Act regulations. The Company is cooperating with the AUSA regarding the Subpoena. The Company and the U.S. Attorney for the E.D.N.Y. have entered into a tolling agreement (and several amendments thereto) with respect to the investigation. The material provisions of the tolling agreement (as amended) provide that the E.D.N.Y. has made no decision as yet as to the appropriate resolution of its pending investigation, that the Company’s time to present evidence and arguments to the E.D.N.Y. concerning the investigation is extended to November 12, 2020, and that the Company agrees that the applicable statute(s) of limitations are tolled during the period from April 12, 2019 through November 12, 2020. The Company cannot predict at this time whether the U.S. Attorney will file a lawsuit or other claims against the Company with respect to the investigation.
Ranitidine Litigation
On January 27, 2020, the Company and Amneal were named in a putative class action complaint filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois by several named plaintiffs on behalf of consumers who purchased Zantac® (ranitidine) and have not been diagnosed with, but “live in constant fear of developing,” cancer, alleging that the defendants, comprising various entities alleged to have manufactured or sold brand-name Zantac® or generic ranitidine, failed to disclose and/or concealed the product’s “dangerous propensities” in respect of the alleged presence in the product of N-Nitrosodimethylamine (or "NDMA") (White, et al., v. GlaxoSmithKline plc, et al., No. 1:19-cv-7773). The complaint purports to state claims for violations of state consumer protection acts, breaches of implied warranties, negligence/gross negligence, and fraudulent concealment (and seeks the certification of corresponding nationwide classes and subclasses). In addition to class certification, plaintiffs seek, among other things, unspecified monetary damages and equitable relief, including the implementation and funding of a medical monitoring program. The complaint is one of hundreds of similar putative class actions and personal injury/product liability lawsuits filed in federal courts nationwide. In November 2019, the JPML established In re Zantac/Ranitidine NDMA Litigation (MDL No. 2924) for coordinated or consolidated pretrial proceedings and, on February 6, 2020, ordered the MDL centralized in the Southern District of Florida.  On February 24, 2020 this lawsuit was transferred to and consolidated with MDL No. 2924. On March 2, 2020, plaintiffs voluntarily dismissed their claims without prejudice against the generic ranitidine manufacturers named as defendants (including the Company and Amneal).
On March 6, 2020, plaintiff Kathy McMillian filed a personal injury / products liability complaint in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Alabama against brand and generic ranitidine product manufacturers (including Amneal), as well as Walmart, Inc., alleging that she developed kidney cancer as a result of her use of Zantac®, Equate®, and/or generic ranitidine, and that defendants knew about but failed to warn regarding an alleged “NDMA defect” in those products (McMillian v. Sanofi-Aventis U.S. LLC, et al., No. 1:20-cv-141-N).  Plaintiff seeks unspecified amounts of both compensatory and punitive damages, as well as attorneys’ fees and other costs.  On March 31, 2020, the case was transferred to and consolidated with MDL No. 2924.
On March 13, 2020, plaintiff Walter Jones, on behalf of decedent Sue Jones, filed an amended complaint naming the Company, Amneal, and Amneal Pharmaceuticals of New York, LLC, in his personal injury / products liability lawsuit against brand and generic ranitidine product manufacturers pending in the United States District Court for the Western District of Tennessee (Jones v. Boehringer Ingelheim Pharmaceuticals, Inc., et al., No. 1:20-cv-2157-JDB-JAY).  Plaintiff alleges that his decedent spouse developed liver cancer and died as a result of six years of use with Zantac®, and that defendants knew about but failed to warn regarding an alleged “NDMA defect” in their ranitidine products.  Plaintiff seeks unspecified amounts of both compensatory and punitive damages, as well as attorneys’ fees and other costs.  On March 31, 2020, the case was transferred to and consolidated with MDL No. 2924.
By order of the MDL court, on June 22, 2020, consolidated groups of personal injury plaintiffs, economic loss/medical monitoring class action plaintiffs, and third-party payor plaintiffs (comprising NECA-IBEW Welfare Trust Fund, Plumbers & Pipefitters Local Union 630, and Indiana Laborers Welfare Fund) each filed master complaints (superseding and replacing all previously filed individual complaints), in which the Company, Amneal, and Amneal Pharmaceuticals of New York, LLC are named as defendants, along with all brand and generic manufacturers, distributors, retailers, and repackagers of ranitidine-containing products. Responsive pleadings to these master complaints are due to be filed August 23, 2020.
On June 18, 2020, Amneal was named in a lawsuit filed in New Mexico state court on behalf of its Attorney General (State of New Mexico, ex rel. Hector H. Balderas v. Glaxosmithkline PLC, et al., No. D-101-CV-2020-01289), alleging claims of public nuisance, negligence, and violations of state consumer protection laws against brand/generic manufacturers and store-brand
41


distributors of Zantac®/ranitidine. Plaintiff seeks unspecified amounts of both compensatory and punitive damages, as well as civil penalties and injunctive relief (including restitution, disgorgement, and the funding of a medical monitoring program).
The Company believes it has substantial meritorious defenses to the claims asserted with respect to these lawsuits. However, any adverse outcome could negatively affect the Company and could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations, cash flows and/or overall financial condition.
Metformin Litigation
The Company, Amneal, and AvKARE, Inc. have been named as defendants, along with numerous other manufacturers, retail pharmacies, and wholesalers, in several putative class action lawsuits pending in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey (“D.N.J.”), filed on behalf of consumers who purchased and third-party payors who paid or made reimbursements for prescription generic metformin products manufactured by or for defendants, alleging that defendants made and sold to putative class members metformin products that were “adulterated” or “contaminat[ed]” with NDMA and thus “worthless,” and therefore that plaintiffs suffered economic losses in connection with their purchases or reimbursements.
On June 3, 2020, the D.N.J. consolidated the lawsuits, as In Re Metformin Marketing and Sales Practices Litigation (No. 2:20-cv-02324-MCA-MAH). On July 6, 2020, plaintiffs filed a consolidated economic loss class action complaint, in which they seek, in addition to class certification, among other things, unspecified compensatory and punitive damages, statutory penalties, and equitable relief. Responsive pleadings are not yet due.
The Company believes it has substantial meritorious defenses to the claims asserted with respect to this matter. However, any adverse outcome could negatively affect the Company and could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations, cash flows and/or overall financial condition.
18. Segment Information
As a result of the Acquisitions, the Company added a third reportable segment, AvKARE, to its existing reportable segments, Generics and Specialty. Generics develops, manufactures and commercializes complex oral solids, injectables, ophthalmics, liquids, topicals, softgels, inhalation products and transdermals across a broad range of therapeutic categories. Generics’ retail and institutional portfolio contains approximately 250 product families, many of which represent difficult-to-manufacture products or products that have a high barrier-to-entry, such as oncologics, anti-infectives and supportive care products for healthcare providers.
Specialty delivers proprietary medicines to the U.S. market. The Company offers a growing portfolio in core therapeutic categories including central nervous system disorders, endocrinology, parasitic infections and other therapeutic areas. The Company's specialty products are marketed through skilled specialty sales and marketing teams, who call on neurologists, movement disorder specialists, endocrinologists and primary care physicians in key markets throughout the U.S. Specialty also has a number of product candidates that are in varying stages of development.

The Company’s chief operating decision maker evaluates the financial performance of the Company’s segments based upon segment operating income (loss). Items below income (loss) from operations are not reported by segment, since they are excluded from the measure of segment profitability reviewed by the Company’s chief operating decision maker. Additionally, general and administrative expenses, certain selling expenses, certain litigation settlements, and non-operating income and expenses are included in "Corporate and Other." The Company does not report balance sheet information by segment since it is not reviewed by the Company’s chief operating decision maker.

Non-Controlling Interests
Under the terms of the Limited Liability Company Agreement, Amneal is obligated to make tax distributions to its members. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, a tax distribution of $1 million was recorded as a reduction of non-controlling interests. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, no tax distribution was recorded due to tax losses incurred. As of June 30, 2020, a $1 million liability was included in related-party payables for the tax distribution.
During December 2018, the Company acquired the non-controlling interests in one of Amneal's non-public subsidiaries for approximately $3 million. As of December 31, 2018, the Company recorded a $3 million related party payable for this transaction which was paid in full in 2019.
Redeemable Non-Controlling Interests
As discussed in Note 3. Acquisitions and Divestitures, the Company acquired a 65.1% interest in Rondo on January 31, 2020.  The sellers of AvKARE, LLC and R&S hold the remaining 34.9% interest as Rondo Class B Units.  Beginning on January 1, 2026, the holders of the Rondo Class B Units have the right (“Put Right”) to require the Company to acquire the Rondo Class B Units for a purchase price that is based on a multiple of Rondo’s earnings before income taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) if certain financial targets and other conditions are met.  Additionally, beginning on January 31, 2020, the Company has the right to acquire the Rondo Class B Units based on the same value and conditions as the Put Right.  The Rondo Class B Units are also redeemable by the holders upon a change in control.
Since the redemption of the Rondo Class B Units is outside of the Company's control, the units have been presented outside of stockholders' equity as redeemable non-controlling interests. Upon closing of the Acquisitions on January 31, 2020, the redeemable non-controlling interests were recorded as a component of the fair value of consideration transferred at an estimated preliminary fair value of $11 million. The fair value of the redeemable non-controlling interests was estimated using the Monte-Carlo simulation approach under the option pricing framework, which considers the redemption rights of both the Company and the holders of the Rondo Class B Units.

The Company will attribute 34.9% of the net income of Rondo to the redeemable non-controlling interests. The Company will also accrete the redeemable non-controlling interests to redemption value upon an event that makes redemption probable. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, a tax distribution of $0.4 million was recorded as a reduction of redeemable non-controlling interests. As of June 30, 2020, a liability of $0.4 million was included in related-party payables for the tax distribution.

Item 2.    Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Amneal Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the "Company," "we," "us," or "our") is a pharmaceutical company specializing in developing, manufacturing, marketing and distributing high-value generic pharmaceutical products across a broad array of dosage forms and therapeutic areas, as well as branded products. We were formed on October 4, 2017, under the name Atlas Holdings, Inc. for the purpose of facilitating the combination (the "Combination") of Impax Laboratories, Inc. ("Impax") and Amneal Pharmaceuticals LLC ("Amneal"), which closed on May 4, 2018.
The following discussion and analysis for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and with our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019 included in our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
On January 31, 2020, we acquired a 65.1% controlling interest in both AvKARE Inc., a Tennessee corporation now a limited liability company (“AvKARE, LLC”), and Dixon-Shane, LLC d/b/a R&S Northeast LLC, a Kentucky limited liability company (“R&S”).  As a result of the AvKARE, LLC and R&S acquisitions (the “Acquisitions”), we now have three reportable segments, Generics, Specialty, and AvKARE.  
Our Specialty segment is engaged in the development, promotion, sale and distribution of proprietary branded pharmaceutical products, with a focus on products addressing central nervous system ("CNS") disorders, including migraine and Parkinson’s disease. Our portfolio of products includes Rytary®, an extended release oral capsule formulation of carbidopa-levodopa for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease, post-encephalitic parkinsonism, and parkinsonism that may follow carbon monoxide intoxication or manganese intoxication. In addition to Rytary®, our promoted Specialty portfolio includes Zomig® (zolmitriptan) products, for the treatment of migraine headaches, which is sold under a license agreement with AstraZeneca U.K. Limited, Emverm® (mebendazole) 100 mg chewable tablets, for the treatment of pinworm, whipworm, common roundworm, common hookworm and American hookworm in single or mixed infections, and Unithroid® (levothyroxine sodium), for the treatment of hypothyroidism, which is sold under a license and distribution agreement with JSP.
For Specialty products, the majority of the product’s commercial value is usually realized during the period in which the product has market exclusivity. In the U.S. and some other countries, when market exclusivity expires and generic versions of a product are approved and marketed, there can often be very substantial and rapid declines in the branded product’s sales.
Our Generics segment includes approximately 250 product families covering an extensive range of dosage forms and delivery systems, including both immediate and extended release oral solids, powders, liquids, sterile injectables, nasal sprays, inhalation and respiratory products, ophthalmics (which are sterile pharmaceutical preparations administered for ocular conditions), films, transdermal patches and topicals (which are creams or gels designed to administer pharmaceuticals locally through the skin). We focus on developing products with substantial barriers-to-entry resulting from complex drug formulations or manufacturing, or legal or regulatory challenges. Generic products, particularly in the U.S., generally contribute most significantly to revenues and gross margins at the time of their launch, and even more so in periods of market exclusivity, or in periods of limited generic competition. As such, the timing of new product introductions can have a significant impact on the Company’s financial results. The entrance into the market of additional competition generally has a negative impact on the volume and pricing of the affected products. Additionally, pricing is often affected by factors outside of the Company’s control.
AvKARE provides pharmaceuticals, medical and surgical products and services primarily to governmental agencies, primarily focused on serving the Department of Defense and the Department of Veterans Affairs.  AvKARE is a wholesale distributor of bottle and unit dose pharmaceuticals under the registered names of AvKARE and AvPAK, as well as medical and surgical products.  AvKARE is also a packager and wholesale distributor of pharmaceuticals and vitamins to its retail and institutional customers who are located throughout the United States of America focused primarily on offering 340b-qualified entities products to provide consistency in care and pricing.
The pharmaceutical industry is highly competitive and highly regulated. As a result, we face a number of industry-specific factors and challenges, which can significantly impact our results. For a more detailed explanation of our business and its risks, refer to our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as supplemented by Part II, Item 1A Risk Factors of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
COVID-19 Pandemic
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization designated the outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) as a global pandemic. Governments and businesses around the world have taken unprecedented actions to mitigate the spread of
51


COVID-19, including imposing restrictions on movement and travel such as quarantines and shelter-in-place requirements, and restricting or prohibiting outright some or all commercial and business activity, including the manufacture and distribution of certain goods and the provision of non-essential services. These measures, though currently temporary in nature, may become more severe and continue indefinitely depending on the evolution of the outbreak. 

The Company did not observe significant impacts on its business or results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2020 due to the global emergence of COVID-19. However, during April and May 2020, as the infection rate of COVID-19 spread throughout New York and New Jersey, the governors of those states issued executive orders requiring residents, among other things, to remain at home with limited exceptions such as working at an essential business. Although as a pharmaceutical manufacturer Amneal is an essential business, we did experience supply chain constraints, including manufacturing and packaging delays at several of our key domestic manufacturing and packaging facilities in New York and New Jersey during the three months ended June 30, 2020. In June and July 2020, as the restrictions from the governors of New York and New Jersey were eased, our manufacturing and distribution facilities were able to resume normal productivity. However, we may again experience supply chain constraints at our New York, New Jersey, India or other facilities in the event of subsequent waves of COVID-19 infections. These potential supply chain disruptions may significantly impact our third and fourth quarter 2020 results of operations and cash flows.  To mitigate any potential overall market liquidity constraints, we borrowed $300 million under our revolving credit facility in March 2020 as a precautionary measure.  As the financial markets stabilized following a period of high volatility due the COVID-19 pandemic, we repaid all of the $300 million of borrowings under our revolving credit facility before June 30, 2020. (Refer to Note 13. Debt, for further details).  As noted in our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K, several of our key domestic manufacturing, packaging, and facilities are located in New York and New Jersey, two states with a high number of confirmed cases of COVID-19. To offset the decreased second quarter output, we will increase production during the third and fourth quarters.
To the extent that the COVID-19 pandemic continues or worsens, national, state, and local governments may impose additional restrictions or extend the restrictions already in place. The worsening of the pandemic and the related safety and business operating restrictions could result in a number of adverse impacts to our business, including, but not limited to, additional disruption to the economy and our customers, additional work restrictions, and supply chains being interrupted or slowed. Also, governments may impose other laws, regulations, or taxes that could adversely impact our business, financial condition, or results of operations. Further, depending on the extent to which our customers are affected, they could delay or reduce purchases of products we provide. The potential effects of the COVID-19 pandemic also could impact us in a number of other ways including, but not limited to, reductions to our profitability, fluctuations in foreign currency markets, the availability of future borrowings, the cost of borrowings, credit risks of our customers and counterparties, and potential impairment of the carrying amount of goodwill or other definite-lived assets.
We will continue to actively monitor the situation and may take further precautionary and preemptive actions as may be required by national, state, or local authorities or that we determine are in the best interests of our employees, customers, partners, suppliers, and shareholders. Until the ultimate extent and duration of the pandemic is known, we cannot predict the ultimate effects the pandemic may have on our business, in particular with respect to demand for our products, our strategy, and our prospects, the effects on our customers, or the impact on our financial results. Refer to Part II, Item 1A "Risk Factors" of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further discussion of the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business.

Net Revenue
Net revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2020 increased by 15%, or $60 million, to $465 million as compared to $405 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The increase over the prior year is primarily attributable to $67 million from the Acquisitions, $39 million from new product launches after June 30, 2019 in our Generics segment and $12 million primarily from volume increases in our Specialty segment, which were partially offset by erosion in our Generics segment and a $2 million decline from the divestiture of our international business in Germany.
Net revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2020 increased by 13%, or $112 million, to $963 million as compared to $851 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The increase over the prior year is primarily attributable to $132 million from the Acquisitions, $101 million from new product launches after June 30, 2019 in our Generics segment and $20 million primarily from volume increases in our Specialty segment, which were partially offset by erosion in our Generics segment and a $16 million decline from the divestitures of our international businesses primarily in the U.K. and Germany.
Cost of Goods Sold and Gross Profit
Cost of goods sold, including impairment charges, increased 7%, or $21 million, to $320 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to $299 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The increase in cost of goods sold was primarily attributable to a $49 million increase associated with the Acquisitions, which were partially offset by a $15 million decline in inventory related charges, lower costs associated with sales erosion in our Generics segment, a $4 million decline in site closure expenses, and a $2 million decline associated with the divestiture of our international business in Germany.
Accordingly, gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was $144 million (31% of total net revenue) as compared to gross profit of $105 million (26% of total net revenue) for the three months ended June 30, 2019. Our gross profit as a percentage of net revenue increased compared to the prior year primarily as a result of the decline in inventory related charges.
Cost of goods sold, including impairment charges, decreased 4%, or $27 million, to $635 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to $662 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The decrease in cost of goods sold was primarily attributable to a $54 million decrease in intangible asset impairments mainly in our Generics segment, a $36 million decrease in expenses related to the Levothyroxine transition agreement with Lannett Company ("Lannett"), a $16 million decline in inventory related charges, a $12 million decline in site closure expenses, lower costs associated with sales erosion in our Generics segment, and a $12 million decline associated with the divestitures of our international businesses primarily in the U.K. and Germany, which were partially offset by a $104 million increase associated with the Acquisitions.
53


Accordingly, gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $328 million (34% of total net revenue) as compared to gross profit of $188 million (22% of total net revenue) for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Our gross profit as a percentage of net revenue increased compared to the prior year primarily as a result of the $54 million decline in intangible impairment charges, as well as other factors described above.
Selling, General, and Administrative
Selling, General, and Administrative (“SG&A”) expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2020 were $81 million, as compared to $67 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The $14 million increase from the prior year was primarily due to a $16 million increase associated with the Acquisitions.
SG&A expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2020 were $159 million, as compared to $152 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The $7 million increase from the prior year was primarily due to a $26 million increase associated with the Acquisitions, which were partially offset by cost savings associated with our restructuring and integration programs.
Research and Development
Research and development (“R&D”) expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2020 were $46 million, as compared to $48 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The $2 million decrease compared to the prior year is primarily attributable to cost savings in our Generics segment associated with the Company’s restructuring programs and the timing of expenses in 2020 due to generic product mix and delayed spending as a result of COVID-19.
R&D expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2020 were $82 million, as compared to $102 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The $20 million decrease compared to the prior year is primarily attributable to cost savings in our Generics segment associated with the Company’s restructuring programs and the timing of expenses in 2020 due to delayed spending as a result of COVID-19.
In-Process Research and Development Impairment Charges
We recognized in-process research and development impairment charges for the six months ended June 30, 2020 of $1 million as compared to $23 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 (none in the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019).  
For the six months ended June 30, 2020, the charges are primarily associated with two products. One of the products experienced a delay in its estimated launch date and the other product was canceled due to the withdrawal of our development partner.
For the six months ended June 30, 2019, the charges are primarily associated with two products in our Generics segment that were acquired as part of the Combination.  
Intellectual Property Legal Development Expense
Intellectual property legal development expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2020 were $4 million as compared to $3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. Intellectual property legal development expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2020 were $5 million as compared to $7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. These costs include, but are not limited to, formulation assessments, patent challenge opinions and strategy, and litigation expenses to defend the intellectual property.
Acquisition, Transaction-Related and Integration Expenses
We recognized approximately $2 million of acquisition, transaction-related and integration expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to $4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. We recognized approximately $4 million of acquisition, transaction-related and integration expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to $10 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 acquisition, transaction-related and integration expenses were primarily related to systems integrations associated with the Combination and integration activities associated with the Acquisitions. The decreases from the prior year are primarily related to the substantial completion of integration activities related to the Combination.
54


Charges Related to Legal Matters, Net
For the three months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded net charges of $1 million for commercial legal proceedings and claims, of which a $3 million charge recorded in our Generics segment was partially offset by a $2 million gain in our Specialty segment.
For the six months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded net charges of $6 million for commercial legal proceedings and claims, which was primarily recorded in our Generics segment.
Restructuring and Other Charges
On July 10, 2019, we announced a plan to restructure our operations that is intended to reduce costs and optimize our organizational and manufacturing infrastructure. Pursuant to the restructuring plan as revised, we expect to reduce our headcount by approximately 300 to 350 by December 31, 2020, primarily by ceasing manufacturing at our Hauppauge, NY facility.
Restructuring and other charges were $0.3 million and $2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. These charges primarily consisted of charges associated with cash severance and other benefits provided pursuant to our severance programs for former executives.  
Restructuring and other charges for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 were $3 million and $9 million, respectively. These charges primarily consisted of cash and other severance charges provided pursuant to our severance programs for employees at our Hayward, CA facility and other facilities as well as cash severance charges associated with the cost of benefits for former senior executives.
Other Expense, Net
Other expense, net was $33 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to $37 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The decrease of $4 million was primarily attributable to a $7 million decline in interest expense as reductions in interest rates offset increased borrowings and a $2 million favorable impact from divestitures, partially offset by a $5 million unfavorable foreign currency impact.
Other expense, net was $77 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to $76 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The increase of $1 million was primarily attributable to a $7 million unfavorable impact from divestitures and a $5 million unfavorable foreign currency impact, partially offset by a $11 million decline in interest expense as reductions in interest rates offset increased borrowings.
Provision For (Benefit From) Income Taxes  
For the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company's provision for (benefit from) income taxes and effective tax rates were $2 million and (10.0%) and $(6) million and 10.1%, respectively.  The year over year change is primarily associated with an increase in foreign based earnings.
For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company's benefit from income taxes and effective tax rates were ($106) million and 1259.7% and ($14) million and 7.5%, respectively.  The year over year change is primarily associated with the $110 million benefit from the carryback of U.S. Federal deferred tax assets under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”). In July 2020, we received $106 million in cash from U.S. federal tax refunds associated with the CARES Act, with the remaining $4 million in cash refunds expected to be received before December 31, 2020.  The CARES Act is an emergency economic stimulus package in response to the COVID-19 pandemic which, among other things, includes provisions relating to income and non-income-based tax laws.  These deferred tax assets had a 100% valuation allowance as of December 31, 2019.
Net (Loss) Income
We recognized a net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2020 of $24 million as compared to net loss of ($51) million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The year over year decrease in our net loss of $27 million is primarily attributable to favorable gross profit of $39 million and a decline in interest expense of $7 million, partially offset by an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses associated with the Acquisition of $16 million, a decrease in foreign exchange gains of $5 million and an increase in the provision for income taxes of $8 million.
55


We recognized net income for the six months ended June 30, 2020 of $98 million as compared to net loss of ($175) million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The year over year increase of $273 million is primarily attributable to favorable gross profit of $139 million (including a $54 million decline of intangible asset impairment charges and a $36 million decrease in expenses related to the Levothyroxine transition agreement with Lannett), a $92 million favorable impact from income taxes related to the CARES Act, a $22 million decline in IPR&D impairment charges and $11 million from lower interest expense.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our primary source of liquidity is cash generated from operations, available cash and borrowings under debt financing arrangements, including $414 million of available additional capacity on our Revolving Credit Facility as of July 16, 2020, as defined below. We believe these sources are sufficient to fund our planned operations, meet our interest and contractual obligations and provide sufficient liquidity over the next 12 months. However, our ability to satisfy our working capital requirements and debt obligations will depend upon economic conditions, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, and demand for our products, which are factors that may be out of our control.

Our primary uses of capital resources are to fund operating activities, including research and development expenses associated with new product filings, and pharmaceutical product manufacturing expenses, license payments, and spending on production facility expansions and capital equipment items. As the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the economy and our operations evolves, we will continue to assess our liquidity needs. A continued worldwide disruption could materially affect our future access to sources of liquidity, particularly our cash flows from operations, and financial condition. In the event of a sustained market deterioration, we may need additional liquidity, which would require us to evaluate available alternatives and take appropriate actions.

On March 27, 2020, President Trump signed into law the CARES Act. The CARES Act is an emergency economic stimulus package in response to the COVID-19 pandemic which, among other things, includes provisions relating to income and non-income-based tax laws.  In July 2020, we received $106 million in cash from U.S. federal tax refunds associated with the CARES Act (refer to Note 8. Income Taxes) with an additional $4 million in cash refunds expected to be received before December 31, 2020.  Other non-income-based tax provisions include deferral of the employer share of Social Security payroll taxes due from the CARES Act date of enactment through December 31, 2020, and a potential 50% credit on qualified wages against employment taxes each quarter with any excess credits eligible for refunds.
Over the next 12 months, we will make substantial payments for monthly interest and quarterly principal amounts due on our term loans, Revolving Credit Facility, severance and capital expenditures.  
We are party to a tax receivable agreement that requires us to make cash payments to APHC Holdings LLC (formerly known as Amneal Holdings LLC) ("Holdings") in respect of certain tax benefits that we may realize or may be deemed to realize as a result of sales or exchanges of Amneal common units by Holdings. The timing and amount of any payments under the TRA will also vary, depending upon a number of factors including the timing and number of Amneal common units sold or exchanged for our Class A Common Stock, the price of our Class A Common Stock on the date of sale or exchange, the timing and amount of our taxable income, and the tax rate in effect at the time of realization of our taxable income. The tax receivable agreement also requires that we make an accelerated payment to Holdings equal to the present value of all future payments due under the agreement upon certain change of control and similar transactions. Further sales or exchanges occurring subsequent to June 30, 2020 could result in future Amneal tax deductions and obligations to pay 85% of such benefits to the holders of Amneal common units. These obligations could be incremental to and substantially larger than the approximate $202 million contingent liability as of June 30, 2020 (refer to Note 8. Income Taxes). Payments could also be in excess of the tax savings that we ultimately realize. Because of the foregoing, our obligations under the tax receivable agreement could have a substantial negative impact on our liquidity. For further details, see Item 1A. Risk Factors and Note 8. Income Taxes in our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
In addition, pursuant to the limited liability operating agreement of Amneal, in connection with any tax period, Amneal will be required to make distributions to its members, on a pro rata basis in proportion to the number of Amneal Common Units held by each member, of cash until each member (other than the Company) has received an amount at least equal to its assumed tax liability and the Company has received an amount sufficient to enable it to timely satisfy all of its U.S. federal, state and local and non-U.S. tax liabilities, and meet its obligations pursuant to the tax receivable agreement. For the three months ended June 30, 2020, no cash tax distributions were made to Holdings. In July 2020, we made cash tax distributions of $1 million to Holdings pursuant to the limited liability operating agreement.
At June 30, 2020, our cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on deposit and highly liquid investments. A portion of our cash flows are derived outside the United States. As a result, we are subject to market risk associated with changes in foreign exchange rates. We maintain cash balances at both U.S. based and foreign country based commercial banks. At various times during the year, our cash balances held in the United States may exceed amounts that are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). We make our investments in accordance with our investment policy. The primary objectives of our investment policy are liquidity and safety of principal.

improved operating performance, favorable timing impacts from the collections of trade receivables and payments of accounts payable and accrued expenses, and a decrease in payments of employee separation benefits and interest, which were partially offset by an unfavorable impact from income taxes.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
The increase in cash used in investing activities of $226 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019, was primarily related to cash paid for the Acquisitions, partially offset by a decrease in proceeds from sale of international businesses and decreases in purchases of property, plant and equipment and acquisitions of intangible assets.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities was $158 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to net cash used in financing activities of ($31) million for the six months ended June 30, 2019.  The change was primarily attributable to the net proceeds from a $180 million term loan associated with the Acquisitions and a decrease in tax distributions to non-controlling interests.
Commitments and Contractual Obligations
The contractual obligations of the Company are set forth in Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in the Company’s 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K.  Other than the contractual obligations noted below, there have been no material changes to the disclosure presented in our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Levothyroxine License and Supply Agreement; Transition Agreement
On August 16, 2018, the Company entered into a license and supply agreement with Jerome Stevens Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("JSP") for Levothyroxine. This agreement designated the Company as JSP's exclusive commercial partner for Levothyroxine in the U.S. market for a 10-year term commencing on March 22, 2019. Under this license and supply agreement with JSP, the Company accrued the up-front license payment of $50 million on March 22, 2019, which was paid in April 2019. The agreement also provides for the Company to pay a profit share to JSP based on net profits of the Company's sales of Levothyroxine, after considering product costs.
On November 9, 2018, the Company entered into a transition agreement ("Transition Agreement") with Lannett and JSP. Under the terms of the Transition Agreement, the Company assumed the distribution and marketing of Levothyroxine from Lannett beginning December 1, 2018 through March 22, 2019, ahead of the commencement date of the license and supply agreement with JSP described above.
In accordance with the terms of the Transition Agreement, the Company made $47 million of non-refundable payments to Lannett. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, $37 million (none in 2020) were expensed to cost of goods sold, as the Company sold Levothyroxine. As of December 31, 2018, the Company had a $4 million transition contract liability, which was fully settled in February 2019.
61


Additionally, during the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company recorded $1 million in cost of sales related to reimbursement due to Lannett for certain of its unsold inventory at the end of the Transition Period, which was fully settled in March 2020.
Outstanding Debt Obligations
Senior Secured Credit Facilities
On May 4, 2018 we entered into a senior credit agreement that provided a term loan (“Term Loan”) with a principal amount of $2.7 billion and an asset backed revolving credit facility (“Revolving Credit Facility”) under which loans and letters of credit up to a principal amount of $500 million, on which $414 million are available (principal amount of up to $25 million is available for letters of credit) (collectively, the "Senior Secured Credit Facilities"). The Term Loan is repayable in equal quarterly installments at a rate of 1.00% or the original principal amount annually, with the balance payable at maturity on May 4, 2025. The Term Loan bears a variable annual interest rate, which is one-month LIBOR plus 3.5% at June 30, 2020. The Revolving Credit Facility bears an annual interest rate of one-month LIBOR plus 1.25% at June 30, 2020 and matures on May 4, 2023. The annual interest rate for the Revolving Credit Facility may be reduced or increased by 0.25% based on step-downs and step-ups determined by the average historical excess availability.
The proceeds of any loans made under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities can be used for capital expenditures, acquisitions, working capital needs and other general purposes, subject to covenants as described below. We pay a commitment fee based on the average daily unused amount of the Revolving Credit Facility at a rate based on average historical excess availability, between 0.25% and 0.375% per annum. At June 30, 2020, the Revolving Credit Facility commitment fee rate is 0.375% per annum.
During March 2020, as a precautionary measure to mitigate the uncertainty surrounding overall market liquidity due to COVID-19, we borrowed $300 million on the Revolving Credit Facility.  At June 30, 2020, all $300 million was repaid.
The Senior Secured Credit Facilities contain a number of covenants that, among other things, create liens on Amneal's and its subsidiaries' assets. The Senior Secured Credit Facilities contain certain negative covenants that, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, restrict Amneal’s and its subsidiaries' ability to incur additional debt or guarantees, grant liens, make loans, acquisitions or other investments, dispose of assets, merge, dissolve, liquidate or consolidate, pay dividends or other payments on capital stock, make optional payments or modify certain debt instruments, modify certain organizational documents, enter into arrangements that restrict the ability to pay dividends or grant liens, or enter into or consummate transactions with affiliates. The Revolving Credit Facility also includes a financial covenant whereby Amneal must maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio if certain borrowing conditions are met. The Senior Secured Credit Facilities contain customary events of default, subject to certain exceptions. Upon the occurrence of certain events of default, the obligations under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities may be accelerated and the commitments may be terminated. At June 30, 2020, Amneal was in compliance with all covenants under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities.
Acquisition Financing – Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement
On January 31, 2020, in connection with the Acquisitions, Rondo Intermediate Holdings, LLC (“Rondo Holdings”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Rondo, entered into a revolving credit and term loan agreement (“Rondo Credit Facility”) that provided a term loan ("Rondo Term Loan") with a principal amount of $180 million and a revolving credit facility (“Rondo Revolving Credit Facility”) which loans up to a principal amount of $30 million.  The Rondo Term Loan is repayable in equal quarterly installments at a rate of 5.0% of the original principal amount annually, with the balance payable at maturity on January 31, 2025. The Rondo Credit Facility bears a variable annual interest rate, which is one-month LIBOR plus 3.0% at June 30, 2020 and matures on January 31, 2025.  The annual interest rate for borrowing under the Rondo Credit Facility may be reduced or increased by 0.25% based on step-downs and step-ups determined by the total net leverage ratio, as defined in that agreement.  At June 30, 2020, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the Rondo Revolving Credit Facility.
A commitment fee based on the average daily unused amount of the Rondo Credit Facility is assessed at a rate based on total net leverage ratio, between 0.25% and 0.50% per annum. At June 30, 2020, the Rondo Credit Facility commitment fee rate is 0.4% per annum.
62


The Rondo Credit Facility contains a number of covenants that, among other things, create liens on the equity securities and assets of Rondo Holdings, Rondo, AvKARE, LLC and R&S.  The Rondo Credit Facility contains certain negative, affirmative and financial covenants that, among other things, restrict the ability to incur additional debt, grant liens, transact in mergers and acquisitions, make certain investments and payments or engage in certain transactions with affiliates.  The Rondo Credit Facility also contains customary events of default. Upon the occurrence of certain events of default, the obligations under the Rondo Credit Facility may be accelerated and/ or the interest rate may be increased.  At June 30, 2020, Rondo was in compliance with all covenants.  The Company is not party to the Rondo Credit Facility and is not a guarantor of any debt incurred thereunder.
Acquisition Financing – Notes Payable-Related Party
The Sellers Notes with a stated principal amount of $44 million and the Short-Term Sellers Note with a stated principal amount of $1 million were issued by Rondo or its subsidiary, Rondo Top Holdings, LLC, on January 31, 2020, the closing date of the Acquisitions. The Sellers Notes are unsecured and accrue interest at a rate of 5% per annum, not compounded, until June 30, 2025. The Sellers Notes are subject to prepayment at the option of Rondo, as the obligor, without premium or penalty. Mandatory payment of the outstanding principal and interest is due on June 30, 2025 if certain financial targets are achieved, the borrowers’ cash flows are sufficient (as defined in the Sellers Notes) and repayment is not prohibited by senior debt.  If repayment of all outstanding principal and accrued interest on the Sellers Notes is not made on June 30, 2025, the requirements for repayment are revisited on June 30 of each subsequent year until all principal and accrued interest on the Sellers Notes are satisfied no later than January 31, 2030 or earlier, upon a change in control.  The Short-Term Sellers Note is also unsecured and accrues interest at a rate of 1.6% and is due on January 31, 2020.
The Sellers Notes were recorded at a fair value of $35 million, which was estimated using the Monte-Carlo simulation approach under the option pricing framework.  The Short-Term Sellers Note of $1 million was recorded at the stated principal amount of $1 million, which approximates fair value.  The $9 million discount on the Sellers Notes will be amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method from January 31, 2020 to June 30, 2025 as the carrying value of the Sellers Notes will accrete to the stated principal amount of $44 million.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as of June 30, 2020.

Item 3.    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
There has not been any material change in our assessment of market risk as set forth in Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk, in our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K. 
Item 4.    Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")) that are designed to ensure information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Co-Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Our management, with the participation of our Co-Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this
63


Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.   Based upon that evaluation, our Co-Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officer concluded that due to the material weakness, described below, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2020.

The material weakness in internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) resulted from ineffective controls over cash disbursements. Specifically, we did not have adequate controls to prevent improper changes to banking information in our vendor master file, which allowed cash disbursements to be redirected from a vendor bank account to an unrelated bank account. In light of the material weakness, we performed additional analysis, including validating changes to vendor bank account information made during 2020, to ensure that the Company’s financial statements covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.

This control deficiency did not result in any financial loss or any material impact to the financial statements for the periods covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or for any prior periods.

To remediate the material weakness described above, we have enhanced the design and execution of our existing controls and procedures to prevent improper changes to the banking information in our vendor master file. We expect that remediation will be completed prior to December 31, 2020 following sufficient operational time for the applicable remedial controls and subsequent testing.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
During the quarter ended June 30, 2020, except as noted above, there were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) which materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls
Systems of disclosure controls and internal controls over financial reporting and their associated policies and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, are designed to provide a reasonable, but not an absolute, level of assurance that the objectives of the system of control are achieved. Further, the design of a control system must be balanced against resource constraints, and therefore the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Given the inherent limitations in all systems of controls, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate. Accordingly, given the inherent limitations in a cost-effective system of internal control, financial statement misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and may not be detected. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide a reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives. We conduct periodic evaluations of our systems of controls to enhance, where necessary, our control policies and procedures.
Part II – OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1.    Legal Proceedings
Information pertaining to legal proceedings can be found in Note 17. Commitments and Contingencies and is incorporated by reference herein.
Item 1A.    Risk Factors
Other than as set forth below, there have been no material changes to the disclosures presented in our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K under Item 1A. Risk Factors. The direct and indirect impact of the COVID-19 pandemic could also affect or amplify one or more of the risk factors included in our 2019 Annual Report on 10-K. However, given the unpredictable, unprecedented and fluid nature of the pandemic, the potential impacts it could have on us, whether direct or indirect, remain uncertain. Additionally, other risks that we do not presently perceive or that we currently believe are not material may also adversely affect us.

64



If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting, or to remediate any existing material weakness, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results, timely file our periodic reports, maintain our reporting status or prevent fraud.

We are required to comply with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires public companies to conduct an annual review and evaluation of their internal controls and attestations of the effectiveness of internal controls by independent auditors. Ensuring that we have adequate internal financial and accounting controls and procedures in place so that we can produce accurate financial statements on a timely basis is a costly and time-consuming effort that will need to be evaluated frequently. Our failure to maintain the effectiveness of our internal controls in accordance with the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act or to remediate any identified material weaknesses, or the inability of our independent registered public accounting firm to express an opinion as to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, could have a material adverse effect on our business. We could lose investor confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports, which could have an adverse effect on the price of our common stock. In addition, if our efforts to comply with new or changed laws, regulations, and standards differ from the activities intended by regulatory or governing bodies due to ambiguities related to practice, regulatory authorities may initiate legal proceedings against us and our business may be harmed.
In connection with the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, our management identified a material weakness in internal controls over financial reporting regarding cash disbursements, as discussed in greater detail in Part I, Item 4 "Controls and Procedures." Our management or our independent registered public accounting firm may also identify material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting in the future. The existence of the existing material weakness or any future internal control material weaknesses may result in current and potential stockholders and alliance and collaboration agreements’ partners losing confidence in our financial reporting, which could harm our business, the market price of our common stock, and our ability to retain our current, or obtain new, alliance and collaboration agreements’ partners. Further, we may not be successful in making the improvements necessary to remediate the existing or any future material weakness, or in doing so in a timely and cost-effective manner.

In addition, the existence of material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting may affect our ability to timely file periodic reports under the Exchange Act. The inability to timely file periodic reports under the Exchange Act could result in the SEC revoking the registration of our common stock, which would prohibit us from listing or having our stock quoted on any public market. This would have an adverse effect on our business and stock price by limiting the publicly available information regarding us and greatly reducing the ability of our stockholders to sell or trade our common stock.
The spread of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic and other adverse public health developments could adversely affect our business and results of operations.
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization designated the outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) as a global pandemic. Governments and businesses around the world have taken unprecedented actions to mitigate the spread of COVID-19, including imposing restrictions on movement and travel such as quarantines and shelter-in-place requirements, and restricting or prohibiting outright some or all commercial and business activity, including the manufacture and distribution of certain goods and the provision of non-essential services.  These measures, though currently temporary in nature, may become more severe and continue indefinitely depending on the evolution of the COVID-19 pandemic.  To date, no fully effective vaccines or treatments have been developed and effective vaccines or treatments may not be discovered soon enough to protect against a worsening of the outbreak or to prevent COVID-19 from becoming endemic. 

Our business and results of operations could be materially adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.  In particular, the COVID-19 pandemic could materially adversely impact the Company's operations, including, among other things, its manufacturing operations, supply chain, sales and marketing and clinical trial operations. Any of these factors could adversely affect the Company's business, operating results or financial condition.  The United States, India and China, three countries particularly hard hit by the pandemic, represent vital aspects of our direct and indirect supply chain and the United States is the largest end market for our products, representing the geographic source of almost our entire 2019 net revenue.  We have taken precautionary measures intended to help minimize the risk of the virus to our employees, including requiring non-production employees to work remotely, suspending all non-essential travel worldwide, and restricting or prohibiting attendance at industry events and in-person work-related meetings.  While these measures are temporary, they may continue until the pandemic is contained.  The spread of COVID-19 could also negatively affect the operations of the third parties with whom we do business, including our raw material providers, aspects of our supply chain and our development, collaboration and commercial partners, for the same or different reasons that it is impacting our business directly.  We expect the foregoing and other unanticipated challenges will cause delays or disruptions in the manufacture, supply and availability of our products, particularly those in New York and New Jersey and more generally will make it more difficult to operate our business.  Any of these factors could adversely affect the Company's business, operating results or financial condition.
65


The spread of COVID-19 could also adversely affect our clinical trial operations and other research and development activities in the United States and elsewhere, including our ability to recruit and retain volunteers, principal investigators and site staff who, as patients and healthcare providers, may have heightened exposure risks and sensitivities to COVID-19.  Further, some patients may be unable to comply with clinical trial protocols if quarantines or travel restrictions impede patient movement or interrupt healthcare services or may become infected with COVID-19 themselves, any of which would delay our ability to conduct clinical trials or release clinical trial results. COVID-19 may also affect employees of third-party contract research organizations that we rely upon to carry out our clinical trials, which could result in inefficiencies due to reductions in staff and disruptions to work environments. The outbreak could impact the day-to-day operations of the FDA and other health authorities in their ability to respond to non-emergency matters, which could delay reviews and approvals of product candidates.
The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely affected many industries as well as the economies and financial markets of many countries, including the United States, India and China, resulting in a significant deceleration of economic activity.  This slowdown has reduced production, decreased the level of trade, and led to widespread corporate downsizing, causing a sharp increase in unemployment.  We have also seen significant disruption of and extreme volatility in the global capital markets, which could increase the cost of, or entirely restrict access to, capital.  This volatility and uncertainty have adversely affected our stock price and may continue to do so.  The impact of this pandemic on the U.S., Indian, Chinese and world economies is uncertain and, unless the pandemic is contained, these adverse impacts could worsen, impacting all segments of the global economy, and result in a significant recession or worse.
Considerable uncertainty still surrounds the COVID-19 virus and its potential effects, and the extent of and effectiveness of any responses taken on a local, national and global level.  Infections may become more widespread and that could accelerate or magnify one or more of the risks described above.  While we expect the COVID-19 pandemic and related events will have a negative effect on our business, the full extent and scope of the impact on national, regional and global markets and economies, and therefore our business and industry, is highly uncertain and cannot be predicted.  Accordingly, our ability to conduct our business in the manner and on the timelines presently planned could be materially and negatively affected, any of which could have a material adverse impact on our business and our results of operation and financial condition.
