Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Baxter International Inc. and its subsidiaries (the company or Baxter) have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the United States have been condensed or omitted. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 (2015 Annual Report).

In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the interim periods. All such adjustments, unless otherwise noted herein, are of a normal, recurring nature. The results of operations for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full year.

Certain reclassifications have been made to conform the prior period condensed consolidated statements to the current period presentation.

Separation of Baxalta Incorporated

On July 1, 2015, Baxter completed the distribution of approximately 80.5% of the outstanding common stock of Baxalta Incorporated (Baxalta) to Baxter shareholders (the Distribution). The Distribution was made to Baxter’s shareholders of record as of the close of business on June 17, 2015 (Record Date), who received one share of Baxalta common stock for each Baxter common share held as of the Record Date. As a result of the Distribution, Baxalta became an independent public company trading under the symbol “BXLT” on the New York Stock Exchange. On June 3, 2016, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Shire plc (Shire) merged with and into Baxalta, with Baxalta as the surviving company in the merger (Merger).

References in this report to Baxalta prior to the Merger closing date refers to Baxalta as a stand-alone public company. References in this report to Baxalta subsequent to the Merger closing date refers to Baxalta as a subsidiary of Shire.

As a result of the separation, the condensed consolidated statements of income, condensed consolidated balance sheets, condensed consolidated statements of cash flow and related financial information reflect Baxalta’s operations, assets and liabilities, and cash flows as discontinued operations for all periods presented. Refer to Note 2 for additional information regarding the separation of Baxalta.

New accounting standards

Recently issued accounting standards not yet adopted

In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which amends ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation. The updated guidance requires all tax effects related to share-based payment be recorded in income tax expense in the consolidated statement of income. Current guidance requires that tax effects of deductions in excess of share-based compensation costs (windfall tax benefits) be recorded in additional paid-in capital, and tax deficiencies (shortfalls) are recorded in additional paid-in capital to the extent of previously recognized windfall tax benefits, with the remainder recorded in income tax expense. The new guidance also requires all tax-related cash flows resulting from share-based payments to be reported as operating activities in the consolidated statement of cash flows, rather than the current requirement to present windfall tax benefits as an inflow from financing activities and an outflow from operating activities. The guidance is effective for the company beginning January 1, 2017. The company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). Under the new guidance, lessees are required to recognize lease assets and liabilities on the balance sheet for leases classified as operating leases under current GAAP. This ASU is effective for the company beginning January 1, 2019. The company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which amends the existing accounting standards for revenue recognition. ASU No. 2014-09 is based on principles that govern the recognition of revenue at an amount an entity expects to be entitled when products are transferred to customers. ASU No. 2014-09 will be effective for the company beginning on January 1, 2018. The standard may be applied retrospectively to each prior period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect recognized as of the date of adoption. The company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting the standard on its consolidated financial statements.

Recently adopted accounting pronouncements

As of January 1, 2016, the company adopted ASU No. 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs, which amended ASC 835-30, Interest - Imputation of Interest. This guidance requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability. As a result of the adoption, the company reclassified debt issuance costs of $13 million from other assets to long-term debt in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2015. The adoption of this guidance did not impact the company’s consolidated statements of earnings, comprehensive income, shareholders’ equity, or cash flows.

As of January 1, 2016, the company adopted ASU No. 2015-05, Intangibles–Goodwill and Other–Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40), Customer’s Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement. This guidance requires software licenses within cloud computing arrangements to be classified as intangible assets. The adoption of ASU No. 2015-05 did not have a material impact on Baxter’s financial position or results of operations.

2. SEPARATION OF BAXALTA INCORPORATED

After giving effect to the Distribution, the company retained 19.5% of the outstanding common stock, or 131,902,719 shares of Baxalta (Retained Shares). Effective January 27, 2016, Baxter completed a debt-for-equity exchange through the transfer of 37,573,040 Retained Shares in exchange for the extinguishment of the $1.45 billion aggregate principal amount of indebtedness outstanding under the company’s prior U.S. dollar denominated revolving credit facility, which was terminated in connection with the closing of this exchange. On March 16, 2016, the company completed a debt-for-equity exchange, in which Baxter exchanged 63,823,582 Retained Shares for the extinguishment of $2.2 billion in aggregate principal amount of Baxter indebtedness. On May 6, 2016 the company contributed 17,145,570 Retained Shares to Baxter’s U.S. pension fund. On May 26, 2016 the company completed an equity-for-equity exchange by exchanging 13,360,527 Retained Shares for 11,526,638 shares of Baxter. The company held no shares of Baxalta as of June 30, 2016. See Note 8 for additional details regarding these transactions.

For a portion of Baxalta’s operations, the legal transfer of Baxalta’s assets and liabilities did not occur with the separation of Baxalta on July 1, 2015 due to the time required to transfer marketing authorizations and other regulatory requirements in certain countries. Under the terms of the International Commercial Operations Agreement (ICOA), Baxalta is subject to the risks and entitled to the benefits generated by these operations and assets until legal transfer; therefore, the net economic benefit and any cash collected by these entities are transferred to Baxalta.

Following is a summary of the operating results of Baxalta, which have been reflected as discontinued operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015. The assets and liabilities have been classified as held for disposition as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

Table of Contents

As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, Baxter has recorded a liability of $65 million and $190 million, respectively, for its obligation to transfer these net assets to Baxalta. On February 1, 2016, the legal transfer of $114 million of net assets was transferred to Baxalta resulting in a gain of $17 million, which is recorded within income from discontinued operations, net of tax. On April 1, 2016, the legal transfer of $19 million of net assets was transferred to Baxalta. It is expected that the majority of the remaining operations will be transferred to Baxalta during 2016.

Baxter and Baxalta entered into several agreements in connection with the July 1, 2015 separation, including a transition services agreement (TSA), separation and distribution agreement, manufacturing and supply agreements (MSA), tax matters agreement, an employee matters agreement, a long-term services agreement, and a shareholder’s and registration rights agreement.

Pursuant to the TSA, Baxter and Baxalta and their respective subsidiaries are providing to each other, on an interim, transitional basis, various services. Services being provided by Baxter include, among others, finance, information technology, human resources, quality supply chain, and certain other administrative services. The services generally commenced on the Distribution date and are expected to terminate within 24 months (or 36 months in the case of certain information technology services) of the Distribution date. Billings by Baxter under the TSA are recorded as a reduction of the costs to provide the respective service in the applicable expense category, primarily in marketing and administrative expenses, in the condensed consolidated statements of income. In the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, the company recognized approximately $26 million and $53 million, respectively, as a reduction to marketing and administrative expenses related to the TSA. Pursuant to the MSA, Baxalta or Baxter, as the case may be, manufactures, labels, and packages products for the other party. The terms of the agreements range in initial duration from five to ten years. In the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, Baxter recognized approximately $14 million and $25 million, respectively, in sales to Baxalta. In addition, Baxter recognized $14 million and $24 million, respectively, in cost of sales related to purchases from Baxalta pursuant to the MSA. The cash flows associated with these agreements are included in cash flows from operations — continuing operations.

Cash outflows of $8 million were reported in cash flows from operations – discontinued operations for the period ending June 30, 2016. These relate to non-assignable tenders whereby Baxter remains the seller of Baxalta products, transactions related to importation services Baxter provides in certain countries, in addition to trade payables settled by Baxter on Baxalta’s behalf after the local separation.

4. EARNINGS PER SHARE

The numerator for both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) is either net income, income from continuing operations, or income from discontinued operations. The denominator for basic EPS is the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The dilutive effect of outstanding stock options, restricted stock units (RSUs) and performance share units (PSUs) is reflected in the denominator for diluted EPS using the treasury stock method.

The following is a reconciliation of basic shares to diluted shares.

The effect of dilutive securities included unexercised stock options, unvested RSUs and contingently issuable shares related to granted PSUs. The computation of diluted EPS excluded 9 million and 14 million equity awards for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively, and 21 million and 16 million equity awards for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2015, because their inclusion would have had an anti-dilutive effect on diluted EPS. Refer to Note 9 for additional information regarding items impacting basic shares.

Stock repurchases

In July 2012, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $2.0 billion of the company’s common stock. During the first half of 2016, the company did not repurchase any shares pursuant to this authority and has $0.5 billion remaining available under this authorization as of June 30, 2016.

In the second quarter of 2016, the company executed an equity-for-equity exchange of Retained Shares for 11.5 million outstanding Baxter shares. Refer to Note 8 for additional information regarding Retained Share transactions.

5. ACQUISITIONS AND OTHER ARRANGEMENTS

In the first quarter of 2016, Baxter paid approximately $23 million to acquire the rights to vancomycin injection in 0.9% Sodium Chloride (Normal Saline) in 500 mg, 750 mg and 1 gram presentations from Celerity Pharmaceuticals, LLC (Celerity). Baxter capitalized the purchase price as an intangible asset and is amortizing the asset over the estimated economic life of 12 years. Refer to Note 5 within the 2015 Annual Report for additional information regarding the company’s agreement with Celerity.

6. GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS, NET

Goodwill

The following is a reconciliation of goodwill by business segment.

As of June 30, 2016, there were no accumulated goodwill impairment losses.

Other intangible assets, net

The following is a summary of the company’s other intangible assets.

Intangible asset amortization expense was $42 million and $40 million in the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and $82 million and $80 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

In the second quarter of 2016, the company recorded an impairment charge of $51 million, of which $41 million related to a developed technology asset, relating to the company’s Hospital Products segment synthetic bone repair products business which was acquired from ApaTech Limited in 2010. The assets of the business were written down to estimated fair value and recorded in cost of sales.

The decrease in other intangible assets, net during the first six months of 2016 was primarily driven by amortization expense and the impairment noted above, partially offset by the acquisition of vancomycin detailed in Note 5 and currency translation adjustments (CTA).

7. INFUSION PUMP AND BUSINESS OPTIMIZATION CHARGES

Infusion pump charges

In the first quarter of 2016, the company refined its estimates for remediation activities related to the SIGMA SPECTRUM infusion pump recall and decreased the reserve by $12 million. In addition, the company recorded utilization of the SIGMA SPECTRUM reserve of $14 million. In the second quarter of 2016, the company recorded utilization of the SIGMA SPECTRUM reserve of $10 million. The balance as of June 30, 2016 was $4 million for the SIGMA SPECTRUM infusion pump recall. Refer to the 2015 Annual Report for further information about the company’s infusion pump recall activities.

On January 27, 2016, Baxter exchanged Retained Shares for the extinguishment of $1.45 billion aggregate principal amount outstanding under its $1.8 billion U.S. dollar-denominated revolving credit facility. This exchange extinguished the indebtedness under the facility, which was terminated in connection with such debt-for-equity exchange. There were no material prepayment penalties or breakage costs associated with the termination of the facility. Baxter recognized a net realized gain of $1.25 billion related to the Retained Shares exchanged, which was included in other income, net for the six months ended June 30, 2016.

On March 16, 2016, the company exchanged Retained Shares for the extinguishment of approximately $2.2 billion in principal amount of its 0.950% Notes due May 2016, 5.900% Notes due August 2016, 1.850% Notes due January 2017, 5.375% Notes due May 2018, 1.850% Notes due June 2018, 4.500% Notes due August 2019, and 4.250% Notes due February 2020 purchased by certain third party purchasers in the previously announced debt tender offers. As a result, the company recognized a net loss on extinguishment of debt totaling $101 million and a net realized gain of $2.0 billion on the Retained Shares exchanged, which are included in other income, net for the six months ended June 30, 2016.

Securitization arrangement

The following is a summary of the activity relating to the company’s securitization arrangement in Japan.

The impacts on the condensed consolidated statements of income relating to the sale of receivables were immaterial for each period. Refer to the 2015 Annual Report for further information regarding the company’s securitization arrangement.

Concentrations of credit risk

The company invests excess cash in certificates of deposit or money market funds and diversifies the concentration of cash among different financial institutions. With respect to financial instruments, where appropriate, the company has diversified its selection of counterparties, and has arranged collateralization and master-netting agreements to minimize the risk of loss.

The company continues to do business with foreign governments in certain countries, including Greece, Spain, Portugal and Italy, that have experienced a deterioration in credit and economic conditions. As of June 30, 2016, the company’s net accounts receivable from the public sector in Greece, Spain, Portugal and Italy totaled $183 million.

Global economic conditions and liquidity issues in certain countries have resulted, and may continue to result, in delays in the collection of receivables and credit losses. Governmental actions and customer-specific factors may also require the company to re-evaluate the collectability of its receivables and the company could potentially incur additional credit losses. These conditions may also impact the stability of the Euro.

Derivatives and hedging activities

The company operates on a global basis and is exposed to the risk that its earnings, cash flows and equity could be adversely impacted by fluctuations in foreign exchange and interest rates. The company’s hedging policy attempts to manage these risks to an acceptable level based on the company’s judgment of the appropriate trade-off between risk, opportunity and costs.

The company is primarily exposed to foreign exchange risk with respect to recognized assets and liabilities, forecasted transactions and net assets denominated in the Euro, British Pound, Chinese Yuan, Korean Won, Australian Dollar, Canadian Dollar, Japanese Yen, Columbian Peso, Brazilian Real, Swedish Krona, Mexican Peso, and New Zealand Dollar. The company manages its foreign currency exposures on a consolidated basis, which allows the company to net exposures and take advantage of any natural offsets. In addition, the company uses derivative and nonderivative instruments to further reduce the net exposure to foreign exchange. Gains and losses on the hedging instruments offset losses and gains on the hedged transactions and reduce the earnings and equity volatility resulting from foreign exchange. Financial market and currency volatility may limit the company’s ability to cost-effectively hedge these exposures.

The company is also exposed to the risk that its earnings and cash flows could be adversely impacted by fluctuations in interest rates. The company’s policy is to manage interest costs using a mix of fixed- and floating-rate debt that the company believes is appropriate.

To manage this mix in a cost-efficient manner, the company periodically enters into interest rate swaps in which the company agrees to exchange, at specified intervals, the difference between fixed and floating interest amounts calculated by reference to an agreed-upon notional amount.

The company does not hold any instruments for trading purposes and none of the company’s outstanding derivative instruments contain credit-risk-related contingent features.

13

Table of Contents

All derivative instruments are recognized as either assets or liabilities at fair value in the condensed consolidated balance sheets and are classified as short-term or long-term based on the scheduled maturity of the instrument. Based upon the exposure being hedged, the company designates its hedging instruments as cash flow or fair value hedges.

Cash Flow Hedges

The company may use options, including collars and purchased options, forwards and cross-currency swaps to hedge the foreign exchange risk to earnings relating to forecasted transactions and recognized assets and liabilities.

For each derivative instrument that is designated and effective as a cash flow hedge, the gain or loss on the derivative is accumulated in accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) and then recognized in earnings consistent with the underlying hedged item. Option premiums or net premiums paid are initially recorded as assets and reclassified to other comprehensive income (OCI) over the life of the option, and then recognized in earnings consistent with the underlying hedged item. Cash flow hedges are classified in net sales, cost of sales, and net interest expense, and primarily relate to forecasted third-party sales denominated in foreign currencies, forecasted intercompany sales denominated in foreign currencies, and anticipated issuances of debt, respectively.

The notional amounts of foreign exchange contracts were $497 million and $378 million as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. There were no outstanding interest rate contracts designated as cash flow hedges as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015. The maximum term over which the company has cash flow hedge contracts in place related to forecasted transactions as of June 30, 2016 is 18 months.

Fair Value Hedges

The company uses interest rate swaps to convert a portion of its fixed-rate debt into variable-rate debt. These instruments hedge the company’s earnings from changes in the fair value of debt due to fluctuations in the designated benchmark interest rate. For each derivative instrument that is designated and effective as a fair value hedge, the gain or loss on the derivative is recognized immediately to earnings, and offsets the loss or gain on the underlying hedged item. Fair value hedges are classified in net interest expense, as they hedge the interest rate risk associated with certain of the company’s fixed-rate debt.

The total notional amount of interest rate contracts designated as fair value hedges was $535 million and $1.3 billion as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. The decrease is due to swaps terminated in conjunction with the previously mentioned debt-for-equity exchanges.

Dedesignations

If it is determined that a derivative or nonderivative hedging instrument is no longer highly effective as a hedge, the company discontinues hedge accounting prospectively. If the company removes the cash flow hedge designation because the hedged forecasted transactions are no longer probable of occurring, any gains or losses are immediately reclassified from AOCI to earnings. Gains or losses relating to terminations of effective cash flow hedges in which the forecasted transactions are still probable of occurring are deferred and recognized consistent with the loss or income recognition of the underlying hedged items.

There were no hedge dedesignations in the first six months of 2016 or 2015 resulting from changes in the company’s assessment of the probability that the hedged forecasted transactions would occur.

If the company terminates a fair value hedge, an amount equal to the cumulative fair value adjustment to the hedged items at the date of termination is amortized to earnings over the remaining term of the hedged item. In March 2016, the company terminated a total notional value of $765 million of interest rate contracts in connection with the March debt tender offers, resulting in a $34 million reduction to the debt extinguishment loss. There were no fair value hedges terminated during the first half of 2015.

Undesignated Derivative Instruments

The company uses forward contracts to hedge earnings from the effects of foreign exchange relating to certain of the company’s intercompany and third-party receivables and payables denominated in a foreign currency. These derivative instruments are generally not formally designated as hedges, and the change in fair value, which substantially offsets the change in book value of the hedged items, is recorded directly to other expense (income), net. The terms of these instruments generally do not exceed one month.

The total notional amount of undesignated derivative instruments was $691 million as of June 30, 2016 and $580 million as of December 31, 2015.

Gains and Losses on Derivative Instruments

The following tables summarize the income statement locations and gains and losses on the company’s derivative instruments for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015.

The following tables summarize the income statement locations and gains and losses on the company’s derivative instruments for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015.

For the company’s fair value hedges, equal and offsetting losses of $4 million and $26 million were recognized in net interest expense in the second quarter and first half of 2016, respectively, and equal and offsetting gains of $72 million and $25 million were recognized in net interest expense in the second quarter and first half of 2015, respectively, as adjustments to the underlying hedged item, fixed-rate debt. Ineffectiveness related to the company’s cash flow and fair value hedges for the six months ended June 30, 2016 was not material.

As of June 30, 2016, $5 million of deferred, net after-tax losses on derivative instruments included in AOCI are expected to be recognized in earnings during the next 12 months, coinciding with when the hedged items are expected to impact earnings.

Fair value measurements

The following tables summarize the basis used to measure financial assets and liabilities that are carried at fair value on a recurring basis in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

As of June 30, 2016, cash and equivalents of $2.6 billion included money market funds of approximately $676 million, and as of December 31, 2015, cash and equivalents of $2.2 billion included money market funds of approximately $500 million. Money market funds would be considered Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

For assets that are measured using quoted prices in active markets, the fair value is the published market price per unit multiplied by the number of units held, without consideration of transaction costs. As of June 30, 2016, the company had disposed of the remainder of its Retained Shares of Baxalta. The investment in the Retained Shares of $5.1 billion as of December 31, 2015 was categorized as a Level 2 security as these securities were not registered as of that date. The value of this investment was based on Baxalta’s common stock price as of December 31, 2015, which represents an identical equity instrument registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The majority of the derivatives entered into by the company are valued using internal valuation techniques as no quoted market prices exist for such instruments. The principal techniques used to value these instruments are discounted cash flow and Black-Scholes models. The key inputs are considered observable and vary depending on the type of derivative, and include contractual terms, interest rate yield curves, foreign exchange rates and volatility.

Contingent payments related to acquisitions consist of commercial milestone payments and sales-based payments, and are valued using discounted cash flow techniques. The fair value of commercial milestone payments reflects management’s expectations of probability of payment, and increases as the probability of payment increases or expectation of timing of payments is accelerated. The fair value of sales-based payments is based upon probability-weighted future revenue estimates, and increases as revenue estimates increase, probability weighting of higher revenue scenarios increase or expectation of timing of payment is accelerated. Changes in the fair value of contingent payments related to Baxter’s acquisitions, which use significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) in the fair value measurement, were immaterial during the first half of 2016. The company made minor sales-based payments in the first six months of 2016.

Table of Contents

The following tables summarize the basis used to measure the approximate fair value of the financial instruments as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

Investments in 2016 and 2015 included certain cost method investments and held-to-maturity debt securities.

The fair value of held-to-maturity debt securities is calculated using a discounted cash flow model that incorporates observable inputs, including interest rate yields, which represents a Level 2 basis of fair value measurement.

In determining the fair value of cost method investments, the company takes into consideration recent transactions, as well as the financial information of the investee, which represents a Level 3 basis of fair value measurement.

The estimated fair values of current and long-term debt were computed by multiplying price by the notional amount of the respective debt instrument. Price is calculated using the stated terms of the respective debt instrument and yield curves commensurate with the company’s credit risk. The carrying values of the other financial instruments approximate their fair values due to the short-term maturities of most of these assets and liabilities.
