Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
Note 1. General
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated condensed financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements of the Cooper Companies, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the Company) and related notes as contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2019. The unaudited interim financial statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) and accruals necessary in the judgment of management for a fair statement of the results for the periods presented. Readers should not assume that the results reported here either indicate or guarantee future performance. The terms "the Company", "we", "us", and "our" are used to refer collectively to the Cooper Companies, Inc. and its subsidiaries.
Accounting Policies
There have been no material changes to our significant accounting policies described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2019, except as it relates to the adoption of Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which is described below.
Leases
We consider an arrangement a lease if the arrangement transfers the right to control the use of an identified asset in exchange for consideration. We have operating leases, but do not have material financing leases. Lease right-of-use assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make payments arising from the lease agreement. These assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement of the lease based upon the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term.
The lease term reflects the noncancelable period of the lease together with periods covered by an option to extend or terminate the lease when management is reasonably certain that it will exercise such option. Changes in the lease term assumption could impact the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities recognized on the balance sheet. As our leases typically do not contain a readily determinable implicit rate, we determine the present value of the lease liability using our incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date based on the lease term on a collateralized basis.
Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted
In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). ASU 2016-02 requires that a lessee recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from operating leases. A lessee should recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use (ROU) asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. In transition, lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases and ASU 2018-11, Leases Topic 842 Target improvements, which provides an additional (and optional) transition method whereby the new lease standard is applied at the adoption date and recognized as an adjustment to retained earnings. In March 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-01, Leases (Topic 842) Codification Improvements, which further clarifies the determination of fair value of the underlying asset by lessors that are not manufacturers or dealers and modifies transition disclosure requirements for changes in accounting principles and other technical updates.
We adopted this standard using the optional transition method and recorded an adjustment to the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheet on November 1, 2019. We have implemented changes to certain business processes, systems and internal controls to support adoption of the new standard and the related disclosure requirements, including the implementation of a third-party leasing software solution. We elected the package of transition expedients, which allows us to keep our existing lease classifications and not reassess whether any existing contracts as of the date of adoption are leases or contain leases and not reassess initial direct cost. In addition, we elected the practical expedients to combine lease and non-lease components for our leases, and for leases with an initial term of 12 months or less to recognize the associated lease payments in the Consolidated Statements of Income on a straight-line basis over the

lease term.
As of January 31, 2020, the aggregate balances of lease right-of-use assets and lease liabilities were $264.0 million and $272.7 million, respectively. The standard did not affect our Consolidated Statements of Income or Consolidated Condensed Statements of Cash Flows. We will continue to disclose comparative reporting periods prior to November 1, 2019 under the previous accounting guidance, ASC 840 Leases.
Accounting Pronouncements Issued Not Yet Adopted
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” and subsequent amendments to the initial guidance: ASU 2018-19 “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses”, ASU 2019-04 “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments”, ASU 2019-05 “Financial Instruments-Credit Losses”, ASU 2019-11 “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses” (collectively, “Topic 326”) and ASU 2020-02 Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326) and Leases (Topic 842). Topic 326 requires measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for financial assets held. Topic 326 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, which means it will be effective for our fiscal year beginning November 01, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of Topic 326 on our consolidated financial statements.
In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-18, Collaborative Arrangements (Topic 808), Clarifying the Interaction between Topic 808 and Topic 606. This guidance amended Topic 808 and Topic 606 to clarify that transactions in a collaborative arrangement should be accounted for under Topic 606 when the counterparty is a customer for a distinct good or service (i.e., unit of account). The amendments preclude an entity from presenting consideration from a transaction in a collaborative arrangement as revenue from contracts with customers if the counterparty is not a customer for that transaction. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019, which means it will be effective for our fiscal year beginning November 1, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this guidance will not have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. This guidance removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and enhances and simplifies various aspects of the income tax accounting guidance, including requirements such as tax basis step-up in goodwill obtained in a transaction that is not a business combination, ownership changes in investments, and interim-period accounting for enacted changes in tax law. This standard is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2019-12 on our consolidated financial statements, which is effective for the Company in our fiscal year and interim periods beginning on November 1, 2021.
In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-01 Investments-Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) - Clarifying the Interactions between Topic 321, Topic 323, and Topic 815. This guidance addresses accounting for the transition into and out of the equity method and provides clarification of the interaction of rules for equity securities, the equity method of accounting, and forward contracts and purchase options on certain types of securities. This standard is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2020-01 which is effective for the Company in our fiscal year and interim periods beginning on November 1, 2021.

Note 2. Leases
The Company primarily has operating leases for office, manufacturing and warehouse space, vehicles, and office equipment. Our leases expire on various dates between 2021 and 2046, some of which could include options to extend the lease.
Lease right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As these leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease's commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. We consider information including, but not limited to, the lease term, our credit rating and interest rates of similar debt instruments with comparable credit ratings and security interests. The lease right-of-use assets are increased by any lease prepayments made and reduced by any lease incentives such as tenant improvement allowances. Options to extend the lease term are included in the lease term when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise the extension option.
The Company’s operating leases typically include non-lease components such as common-area maintenance costs. We have elected to include non-lease components with lease payments for the purpose of calculating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities, to the extent that they are fixed. Non-lease components that are not fixed are expensed as incurred as variable lease payments.
Leases with a term of one year or less are not recognized on our Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheet, while the associated lease payments are recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Income on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Commitments under finance lease arrangements of $2.2 million as of January 31, 2020 are not significant and are not included in the disclosure tables below.

We believe these acquisitions strengthen CooperSurgical's and CooperVision's businesses through the addition of new distributors or complementary products and services.
Fiscal Year 2020
On December 13, 2019, CooperSurgical completed the acquisition of a privately-held distributor of in vitro fertilization (IVF) medical devices and systems. The purchase price allocation is preliminary and we are in the process of finalizing information and the corresponding impact on goodwill.
The pro forma results of operations of this acquisition has not been presented because the effect of the business combination described above was not material to our consolidated results of operations.
Fiscal Year 2019
On December 28, 2018, CooperVision completed the acquisition of Blanchard Contact Lenses. Blanchard is a privately-held scleral lens company, which expands CooperVision's specialty and scleral lens portfolio.
On December 31, 2018, CooperSurgical completed the acquisition of Incisive Surgical Inc., a privately-held U.S. medical device company that develops mechanical surgical solutions for skin closure.
The pro forma results of operations of these acquisitions have not been presented because the effects of the business combinations described above, individually and in the aggregate, were not material to our reported consolidated financial results.

$500 million Term Loan on September 27, 2019
On September 27, 2019, the Company amended its existing senior unsecured term loan agreement entered into on November 1, 2018 (the 2018 Term Loan Agreement) to establish a new 364-day senior unsecured term loan (the 2019 Term Loan Agreement) with the same parties as the 2018 Term Loan Agreement. The 2019 Term Loan Agreement modifies certain provisions of the 2018 Term Loan Agreement which, among other things, extended the maturity date to September 25, 2020 and increased the aggregate principal amount of the term loan facility from an original amount of $400 million to $500 million. The Company used the additional funds to partially repay outstanding borrowings under the 2017 Term Loan Agreement (as defined below). At January 31, 2020, the Company had $500.0 million outstanding under the 2019 Term Loan Agreement.
Amounts outstanding under the 2019 Term Loan Agreement will bear interest, at the Company's option, at either the base rate, or the adjusted LIBOR (each as defined in the 2019 Term Loan Agreement), plus, in each case, an applicable rate of 0.00% in respect of base rate loans and 0.60% in respect of adjusted LIBOR loans. The weighted average interest rate for the three months ended January 31, 2020 was 2.35%.
The 2019 Term Loan Agreement contains customary restrictive covenants, as well as financial covenants that require the Company to maintain a certain Total Leverage Ratio and Interest Coverage Ratio (each as defined in the 2019 Term Loan Agreement) consistent with the 2016 Credit Agreement discussed below.

On November 1, 2017, in connection with the PARAGARD acquisition, the Company entered into a five-year, $1.425 billion, senior unsecured term loan agreement (the 2017 Term Loan Agreement) by and among the Company, the lenders party thereto and DNB Bank ASA, New York Branch, as administrative agent which matures on November 1, 2022. The Company used part of the facility to fund the PARAGARD acquisition and used the remainder of the funds to partially repay outstanding borrowings under our revolving credit agreement.
Amounts outstanding under the 2017 Term Loan Agreement will bear interest, at our option, at either the base rate, or the adjusted LIBOR (each as defined in the 2017 Term Loan Agreement), plus, in each case, an applicable rate of, between 0.00% and 0.75% in respect of base rate loans and between 1.00% and 1.75% in respect of adjusted LIBOR loans, in each case in accordance with a pricing grid tied to the Total Leverage Ratio as defined in the 2017 Term Loan Agreement.
The 2017 Term Loan Agreement contains customary restrictive covenants, as well as financial covenants that require the Company to maintain a certain Total Leverage Ratio and Interest Coverage Ratio (each as defined in the 2017 Term Loan Agreement) consistent with the 2016 Credit Agreement discussed below. At January 31, 2020, the Company had $1.0 billion outstanding under the 2017 Term Loan Agreement. The interest rate on the 2017 Term Loan was 2.91% at January 31, 2020.
Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement on March 1, 2016
On March 1, 2016, the Company entered into a Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement (the 2016 Credit Agreement), among the Company, CooperVision International Holding Company, LP, the lenders party thereto and KeyBank National Association, as administrative agent. The 2016 Credit Agreement provides for a multi-currency revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $1.0 billion (the 2016 Revolving Credit Facility) and a term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $830.0 million (the 2016 Term Loan Facility), each of which, unless terminated earlier, mature on March 1, 2021. In addition, the Company has the ability from time to time to request an increase to the size of the 2016 Revolving Credit Facility or establish one or more new term loans under the 2016 Term Loan Facility in an aggregate amount up to $750.0 million, subject to the discretionary participation of the lenders.
Amounts outstanding under the 2016 Credit Agreement will bear interest, at our option, at either the base rate, or the adjusted LIBOR or adjusted foreign currency rate (each as defined in the 2016 Credit Agreement), plus, in each case, an applicable rate of between 0.00% and 0.75% in respect of base rate loans and between 1.00% and 1.75% in respect of adjusted LIBOR or adjusted foreign currency rate loans, in each case in accordance with a pricing grid tied to the Total Leverage Ratio, as defined in the 2016 Credit Agreement.
The Company pays an annual commitment fee that ranges from 0.125% to 0.25% of the unused portion of the 2016 Revolving Credit Facility depending on certain financial ratios. In addition to the annual commitment fee, the Company is also required to pay certain letter of credit and related fronting fees and other administrative fees pursuant to the terms of the 2016 Credit Agreement.
At January 31, 2020, the Company had no outstanding balance under the 2016 Term Loan Facility and $235.0 million outstanding under the 2016 Revolving Credit Facility. $763.8 million was available under the 2016 Revolving Credit Facility.
The 2016 Credit Agreement contains customary restrictive covenants, as well as financial covenants that require us to maintain a certain Total Leverage Ratio and Interest Coverage Ratio, each as defined in the 2016 Credit Agreement:
• | Interest Coverage Ratio, as defined, to be at least 3.00 to 1.00 at all times. |
• | Total Leverage Ratio, as defined, to be no higher than 3.75 to 1.00. |
At January 31, 2020, the Company was in compliance with the Interest Coverage Ratio at 15.26 to 1.00 and the Total Leverage Ratio at 1.82 to 1.00 for 2019 Term Loan Agreement, 2017 Term Loan Agreement, and 2016 Credit Agreement.

Note 7. Income Taxes
Effective Tax Rate
The Company's effective tax rates were an expense of 7.1% and a benefit of 10.0% for the first quarter of fiscal 2020 and fiscal 2019, respectively. The increase in our effective tax rate for the first quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to fiscal 2019 was primarily due to tax benefits for settlement of tax audits and revisions to the provisional tax charges related to the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act during fiscal 2019. Our effective tax rate for the first quarter of fiscal 2020 was lower than the U.S. statutory tax rate because of discrete tax benefits and a favorable mix of income from our foreign jurisdictions with preferential tax rates. Total discrete tax benefits for the first quarter of fiscal 2020 were $3.8 million primarily relating to excess tax benefits from share-based compensation. Our effective tax rate for the first quarter of fiscal 2019 was lower than the U.S. statutory rate because of discrete tax benefits and favorable mix of income from our foreign jurisdictions with lower tax rates.
We recognize the benefit from a tax position only if it is more likely than not that the position would be sustained upon audit based solely on the technical merits of the tax position. As of January 31, 2020, and October 31, 2019, Cooper had unrecognized tax benefits of $54.8 million and $49.7 million, respectively. The increase is primarily related to additions to current and prior period transfer pricing reserves, partially offset by release of reserves due to lapse of the statute of limitations. It is our policy to recognize interest and penalties directly related to income taxes as additional income tax expense. It is reasonably possible that $14.8 million of unrecognized tax benefits could be settled during the next twelve months.
The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations for fiscal 2015 through 2019 and the Internal Revenue Service is currently auditing our U.S. Consolidated Corporation Income Tax Returns for fiscal 2015 and 2016. The Company remains subject to income tax examinations in other significant tax jurisdictions including United Kingdom, Japan, France and Australia for the tax years 2014 through 2019. The Company is currently under audit in the United Kingdom for fiscal 2015 through 2018.

Share Repurchases
In December 2011, our Board of Directors authorized the 2012 Share Repurchase Program and through subsequent amendments, the most recent in March 2017, the total repurchase authorization was increased from $500.0 million to $1.0 billion of the Company's common stock. This program has no expiration date and may be discontinued at any time. Purchases under the 2012 Share Repurchase Program are subject to a review of the circumstances in place at the time and may be made from time to time as permitted by securities laws and other legal requirements.
There was no share repurchase activity during the first quarter ended January 31, 2020. During fiscal year ended October 31, 2019, we repurchased 537 thousand shares of our common stock for $156.1 million under the 2012 Share Repurchase Program. At January 31, 2020, $407.4 million remained authorized for repurchase under the program.
Dividends
We paid a semiannual dividend of approximately $1.5 million or 3 cents per share on February 10, 2020, to stockholders of record on January 23, 2020.
Note 11. Fair Value Measurements
Accounting standards define fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. An asset’s or liability’s level is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Assets and liabilities carried at fair value are valued and disclosed in one of the following three levels of the valuation hierarchy:
Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
17
THE COOPER COMPANIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
Level 2: Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs reflecting the reporting entity’s own assumptions.
At January 31, 2020 and October 31, 2019, the carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, prepaid expense and other current assets, lines of credit, accounts payable and other current liabilities approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of such instruments and the ability to obtain financing on similar terms.
The carrying value of our revolving credit facility and term loans approximates fair value estimated based on current market rates (Level 2). The Company did not have any derivative assets or liabilities including no interest rate swaps, cross currency swaps or foreign currency forward contracts as of January 31, 2020 and October 31, 2019.
Nonrecurring fair value measurements
The Company uses fair value measures when determining assets and liabilities acquired in an acquisition as described in Note 3. Acquisitions which are considered a Level 3 measurement.
Note 12. Employee Benefits
Cooper’s Retirement Income Plan (the Plan), a defined benefit plan, covers substantially all full-time United States employees. Cooper's contributions are designed to fund normal cost on a current basis and to fund the estimated prior service cost of benefit improvements. The unit credit actuarial cost method is used to determine the annual cost. Cooper pays the entire cost of the Plan and funds such costs as they accrue. Virtually all of the assets of the Plan are comprised of equities and participation in equity and fixed income funds.
Our results of operations for the three months ended January 31, 2020 and 2019, reflect the following components of net periodic defined benefit costs:
Three Months Ended January 31, | |||||||
(In millions) | 2020 | 2019 | |||||
Service cost | $ | 3.5 | $ | 2.5 | |||

Net periodic defined benefit plan cost | $ | 3.0 | $ | 1.8 | |||
We did not contribute to the Plan in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 and expect to contribute $10.0 million during the remainder of fiscal 2020. We did not contribute to the Plan in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. The expected rate of return on Plan assets for determining net periodic benefit plan cost is 8%.
Note 13. Contingencies
Since March 2015, over 50 putative class action complaints were filed by contact lens consumers alleging that contact lens manufacturers, in conjunction with their respective Unilateral Pricing Policy (UPP), conspired to reach agreements between each other and certain distributors and retailers regarding the prices at which certain contact lenses could be sold to consumers. The plaintiffs are seeking damages against CooperVision, Inc., other contact lens manufacturers, distributors and retailers, in various courts around the United States. In June 2015, all of the class action cases were consolidated and transferred to the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida. In August 2017, CooperVision entered into a settlement agreement with the plaintiffs, without any admission of liability, to settle all claims against CooperVision. In July 2018, the Court approved the plaintiffs’ motion for preliminary approval of the settlement, and the Company paid the $3.0 million settlement amount into an escrow account. In March 2020, the Court issued an order providing final approval of the settlement and dismissing CooperVision from the class action.
The Company is involved in various lawsuits, claims and other legal matters from time to time that arise in the ordinary course of conducting business, including matters involving our products, intellectual property, supplier relationships, distributors, competitor relationships, employees and other matters. The Company does not believe that the ultimate resolution of these proceedings or claims pending against it could have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or

results of operations. At each reporting period, the Company evaluates whether or not a potential loss amount or a potential range of loss is probable and reasonably estimable under ASC 450, Contingencies. Legal fees are expensed as incurred.
Note 14. Business Segment Information
The Company discloses information about its operating segments, which were established based on the way that management organizes segments within the Company for making operating decisions and assessing financial performance. The Company's two operating segments are described below.
• | CooperVision. Competes in the worldwide contact lens market by developing, manufacturing and marketing a broad range of products for contact lens wearers, featuring advanced materials and optics. CooperVision designs its products to solve vision challenges such as astigmatism, presbyopia, myopia, ocular dryness and eye fatigues, with a broad collection of spherical, toric and multifocal contact lenses. |
• | CooperSurgical. Competes in the general health care market with a focus on advancing the health of women, babies and families through a diversified portfolio of products and services focusing on women's health, fertility, diagnostics and contraception. |
Cooper uses operating income, as presented in our financial reports, as the primary measure of segment profitability. We do not allocate costs from corporate functions to segment operating income. Items below operating income are not considered when measuring the profitability of a segment. We use the same accounting policies to generate segment results as we do for our consolidated results.
Total identifiable assets are those used in continuing operations except cash and cash equivalents, which we include as corporate assets.

Results of Operations
In this section, we discuss the results of our operations for the first quarter of fiscal 2020 ended January 31, 2020 and compare them with the same period of fiscal 2019. We discuss our cash flows and current financial condition under “Capital Resources and Liquidity.” Within the tables presented, percentages are calculated based on the underlying whole-dollar amounts and, therefore, may not recalculate exactly from the rounded numbers used for disclosure purposes.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The succeeding sections of Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) may include certain financial measures that are not defined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP). These measures, which are referred to as non-GAAP measures, are listed below:
• | Free Cash Flow - Free cash flow is calculated as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures. |
• | Constant currency - Constant currency is defined as excluding the effect of foreign currency fluctuations. |
For a discussion of these measures and the reasons management believes they are useful to investors, refer to “Summary of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below. To the extent applicable, this MD&A includes reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
First Quarter Highlights
• | Gross profit $426.5 million, up 2% from $418.5 million in the prior year period |
• | Operating income $111.1 million remained relatively flat compared to $110.9 million in the prior year period |
• | Diluted earnings per share of $1.82, down 12% from $2.07 per share in the prior year period, primarily due to tax benefits for settlement of tax audits and revisions to the provisional tax charges related to the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act during the prior year period |
• | Cash provided by operations $129.7 million, compared to $101.8 million in the prior year period. |
Outlook
Overall, we remain optimistic about the long-term prospects for the worldwide contact lens and general health care markets. However, events affecting the economy as a whole, including but not limited to the uncertainty and instability of global markets driven by foreign currency volatility, changes in tax legislation, debt concerns, the uncertainty during and after the transition period following the United Kingdom's withdrawal from the European Union, changes to existing regulations and

new regulations, global trade barriers including additional tariffs, the trend of consolidations within the health care industry and uncertainty regarding the scope and impact of the recent outbreak of the coronavirus referred to as COVID-19 on our sales and operations and on the operations of our significant suppliers and customers could impact our current performance and continue to represent a risk to our future performance.
CooperVision - We compete in the worldwide contact lens market with our spherical, toric and multifocal contact lenses offered in a variety of materials including using silicone hydrogel Aquaform® technology and phosphorylcholine (PC) Technology™. We believe that there will be lower contact lens wearer dropout rates as technology improves and enhances the wearing experience through a combination of improved designs and materials and the growth of preferred modalities such as single-use and monthly wearing options. CooperVision also competes in the myopia management and specialty eye care markets with products such as orthokeratology (ortho-k) and scleral lenses. In November 2019, CooperVision received United States Food & Drug Administration (FDA) approval for its MiSight® 1 day lens, which is the first and only FDA-approved product indicated to slow the progression of myopia in children with treatment initiated between the ages of 8-12 and became available in the United States during fiscal 2020. CooperVision is focused on greater worldwide market penetration using recently introduced products, and we continue to expand our presence in existing and emerging markets, including through acquisitions.
CooperVision acquired the following entity during the three months ended January 31, 2019:
• | Blanchard Contact Lenses on December 28, 2018 - a privately-held scleral lens company, which expands CooperVision's specialty and scleral lens portfolio. |
Our ability to compete successfully with a full range of silicone hydrogel products is an important factor to achieving our desired future levels of sales growth and profitability. CooperVision manufactures and markets a wide variety of silicone hydrogel contact lenses. Our single-use silicone hydrogel product franchises, clariti® and MyDay®, remain a focus as we expect increasing demand for these products as well as future single-use products as the global contact lens market continues to shift to this modality. Outside of single-use, the Biofinity® and Avaira Vitality® product families comprise our focus in the FRP, or frequent replacement product, market which encompasses the 2-week and monthly modalities. Included in this segment are unique products such as Biofinity Energys®, which helps individuals with digital eye fatigue.
CooperSurgical - Our CooperSurgical business competes in the general health care market with a commitment to advancing the health of women, babies and families through its diversified portfolio of products and services focusing on women's health, fertility, diagnostics and contraception. CooperSurgical has established its market presence and distribution system by developing products and acquiring companies, products and services that complement its business model.
CooperSurgical acquired the following entity during the three months ended January 31, 2020:
• | A privately-held distributor of IVF medical devices and systems on December 13, 2019. |
CooperSurgical acquired the following entity during the three months ended January 31, 2019:
• | Incisive Surgical Inc. on December 31, 2018 - a privately-held U.S. medical device company that develops mechanical surgical solutions for skin closure. |
Capital Resources - At January 31, 2020, we had $76.8 million in unrestricted cash, primarily held outside the United States, and $763.8 million available under our 2016 Revolving Credit Facility (as defined below).
Debt outstanding at January 31, 2020 consisted of:
• | $1.0 billion outstanding on a $1.425 billion syndicated Term Loan Agreement (the 2017 Term Loan Agreement) used to fund the acquisition of PARAGARD, which matures on November 1, 2022 |
• | A $500.0 million 364-day senior unsecured term loan agreement (the 2019 Term Loan Agreement), which matures on September 25, 2020 |
• | $235.0 million outstanding on a $1.0 billion multi-currency revolving credit facility (the 2016 Revolving Credit Facility), which matures on March 1, 2021. |

See Note 6. Debt of the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
We believe that current cash, cash equivalents and future cash flow from operating activities will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs, including working capital needs, capital expenditures and contractual obligations for at least 12 months from the issuance date of the financial statements included in this quarterly report. To the extent additional funds are necessary to meet our liquidity needs such as that for acquisitions, share repurchases, cash dividends or other activities as we execute our business strategy, we anticipate that additional funds will be obtained through the incurrence of additional indebtedness, additional equity financings or a combination of these potential sources of funds; however, such financing may not be available on favorable terms, or at all.
Transition from LIBOR
The United Kingdom’s Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), announced in July 2017 that it will no longer persuade or require banks to submit rates for LIBOR after 2021. We have undertaken an assessment of contracts that will be impacted by the transition away from LIBOR. To date, we have identified that substantially all of our term loan and credit facility agreements include an adjusted LIBOR option. We are continuing to evaluate the scope of impacted contracts and the potential impact. We are also monitoring the developments regarding alternative rates and may amend certain contracts to accommodate those rates if the contract does not already specify a replacement rate. While the notional value of agreements potentially indexed to LIBOR is material, we are not yet able to reasonably estimate the expected impact.

Provision for Income Taxes
The Company's effective tax rates were an expense of 7.1% and a benefit of 10.0% for the first quarter of fiscal 2020 and fiscal 2019, respectively. The increase in our effective tax rate for the first quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2019 was primarily attributable to tax benefits for settlement of tax audits and revisions to the provisional tax charges related to the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act during the prior year period. Our effective tax rate for the first quarter of fiscal 2020 was lower than the U.S. statutory tax rate because of discrete tax benefits and a favorable mix of income from our foreign jurisdictions with preferential tax rates. Total discrete tax benefits for the first quarter of fiscal 2020 were $3.8 million primarily relating to excess tax benefits from share-based compensation. Our effective tax rate for the first quarter of fiscal 2019 was lower than the U.S. statutory rate due to discrete tax benefits and a favorable mix of income from our foreign jurisdictions with lower tax rates.
Share-Based Compensation Plans
The Company has several share-based compensation plans that are described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2019. The compensation expense and related income tax benefit recognized in our Consolidated Statements of Income for share-based awards were as follows:

• | recognition of current operating lease liabilities $31.5 million on adoption of ASC 842 Leases |
• | decrease in trade accounts receivable $27.3 million primarily due to timing of collections |
• | decrease in cash $12.2 million. |
At January 31, 2020, our inventory months on hand were 7.2 compared to 6.4 at October 31, 2019. The $19.6 million increase in inventories was primarily due to increase in finished goods and raw materials to support demand and production levels.
Our days sales outstanding (DSO) increased to 60 days at January 31, 2020, compared to 56 days at October 31, 2019, primarily due to increased revenue and timing of collections
Operating Cash Flow
Cash provided by operating activities increased by $27.9 million from $101.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 to $129.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2020. This increase in cash flow provided by operating activities primarily consists of:
• | increase of $36.1 million in non-cash items, from $(16.9) million in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 to $19.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 |

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations
• | increase of $2.7 million in net cash flow from changes in operating capital, from $53.3 million outflow in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 to $50.6 million outflow in the first quarter of fiscal 2020, partially offset by; |
• | decrease in net income of $12.7 million from a net income of $103.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 to $90.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 |
The decrease in net income of $12.7 million is due to an increase in tax expense in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to a tax benefit in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 primarily attributable to tax benefits for settlement of tax audits and revisions to the provisional tax charges related to the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act during the prior year period.
The $36.1 million increase in non-cash items compared to the prior year period is primarily due to:
• | increase of $29.9 million driven by net changes in long term tax liabilities, deferred taxes and defined benefit pension |
• | $8.2 million in non-cash lease expense. |
The $2.7 million increase in the net cash flow from changes in operating capital compared to the prior year period is primarily due to:
• | $53.8 million increase in the net changes in trade and other receivables primarily from increased revenue and timing of collections |
• | $13.5 million increase in the net changes in inventories, partially offset by; |
• | $22.2 million decrease in the net changes in prepayments and other assets primarily due to the refund of the prepayment made to the U.K. Tax Authorities in the prior year period |
• | $15.9 million decrease in the net changes in accrued liabilities & other |
• | $14.5 million decrease in the net changes in income tax payable. |
Investing Cash Flow
Cash used in investing activities decreased by $50.8 million to $78.4 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 from $129.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 due to:
• | decrease of $40.6 million in payments made for acquisitions in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to the prior year period, largely due to the acquisition of Incisive Surgical Inc. and Blanchard Contact Lenses in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 |
• | decrease of $10.2 million in capital expenditures. |
Financing Cash Flow
Cash flows from financing activities decreased by $156.4 million to $63.2 million cash outflow in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to $93.2 million inflow in the first quarter of fiscal 2019, primarily due to:
• | $428.3 million decrease in net proceeds from short-term debt, primarily due to $400 million short term loan taken on November 1, 2018 partially offset by; |
• | $269.9 million decrease in net repayments of long-term debt. |
The 2019 Term Loan Agreement and the 2017 Term Loan Agreement contain customary restrictive covenants, as well as financial covenants that require the Company to maintain a certain Total Leverage Ratio and Interest Coverage Ratio (each as defined in the 2019 Term Loan Agreement and 2017 Term Loan Agreement) consistent with the 2016 Credit Agreement. As defined, in the 2019 Term Loan Agreement, the 2017 Term Loan Agreement and the 2016 Credit Agreement, we are required to maintain an Interest Coverage Ratio of at least 3.00 to 1.00, and a Total Leverage Ratio of no higher than 3.75 to
32

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations
1.00. At January 31, 2020, we were in compliance with the Interest Coverage Ratio at 15.26 to 1.00 and the Total Leverage Ratio at 1.82 to 1.00.
At January 31, 2020, we had $500.0 million outstanding under the 2019 Term Loan Agreement, $1.0 billion outstanding under the 2017 Term Loan Agreement, $235.0 million outstanding under the 2016 Revolving Credit Facility and $763.8 million available under the 2016 Revolving Credit Facility.
Share Repurchase
In December 2011, our Board of Directors authorized the 2012 Share Repurchase Program and through subsequent amendments, the most recent in March 2017, the total repurchase authorization was increased from $500.0 million to $1.0 billion of the Company's common stock. The program has no expiration date and may be discontinued at any time. Purchases under the 2012 Share Repurchase Program are subject to a review of the circumstances in place at the time and may be made from time to time as permitted by securities laws and other legal requirements.
There was no share repurchase activity during the first quarter ended January 31, 2020. In the first quarter of fiscal 2019, we repurchased 24.5 thousand shares of our common stock for $6.1 million at an average purchase price of $248.70 per share. At January 31, 2020, $407.4 million remains authorized for repurchase under the program.
Summary of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The non-GAAP financial measures that may be included in this MD&A and the reasons management believes they are useful to investors are described below. These measures should be considered supplemental in nature and are not intended to be a substitute for the related financial information prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, these measures may not be the same as similarly named measures presented by other companies.
Free cash flow is defined as cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures. Management believes free cash flow is useful for investors as an additional measure of liquidity because it represents cash that is available to grow the business, make strategic acquisitions, repay debt, buyback common stock or fund the dividend. We use free cash flow internally to understand, manage, make operating decisions and evaluate our business. In addition, we use free cash flow to help plan and forecast future periods.
Constant currency is defined as excluding the effect of foreign currency rate fluctuations. In order to assist with the assessment of how our underlying businesses performed, we compare the percentage change in revenues from one period to another, excluding the effect of foreign currency fluctuations. To present this information, current period revenue for entities reporting in currencies other than the United States dollar are converted into United States dollars at the average foreign exchange rates for the corresponding period in the prior year.
Estimates and Critical Accounting Policies
Information regarding estimates and critical accounting policies is included in Management's Discussion and Analysis on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2019. There have been no material changes in our policies from those previously discussed in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year October 31, 2019.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk
Most of our operations outside the United States have their local currency as their functional currency. We are exposed to risks caused by changes in foreign exchange, principally our British pound sterling, euro, Japanese yen, Danish krone, Swedish krona and Australian dollar denominated debt and receivables denominated in currencies other than the United States dollar, and from operations in other foreign currencies. Although we may enter into foreign exchange agreements with financial institutions to reduce our exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency values relative to our debt or receivables obligations, these hedging transactions do not eliminate that risk entirely. We are also exposed to risks associated with changes in interest rates, as the interest rates on our revolving lines of credit and term loans may vary with the federal funds rate and LIBOR. We may decrease this interest rate risk by hedging a portion of variable rate debt effectively converting it to fixed rate debt for varying periods. The Company did not have any derivative assets or liabilities that may include interest rate swaps, cross currency swaps or foreign currency forward contracts as of January 31, 2020 and October 31, 2019.
On September 27, 2019, we extended the maturity of the 2018 Term Loan Agreement to September 25, 2020 and increased the amount to $500.0 million (as so amended, the 2019 Term Loan Agreement). We used the additional funds to partially repay outstanding borrowings under the 2017 Term Loan Agreement. At January 31, 2020, the Company had $500 million outstanding under the 2019 Term Loan Agreement.
On November 1, 2017, in connection with the PARAGARD acquisition, we entered into a five-year, $1.425 billion, senior unsecured term loan agreement (the 2017 Term Loan Agreement) by and among us, the lenders party thereto and DNB Bank ASA, New York Branch, as administrative agent which matures on November 1, 2022. We used part of the facility to fund the PARAGARD acquisition and used the remainder of the funds to partially repay outstanding borrowings under our revolving credit agreement. At January 31, 2020, we had $1.0 billion outstanding under the 2017 Term Loan Agreement.
On March 1, 2016, the Company entered into a Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement (the 2016 Credit Agreement), among the Company, CooperVision International Holding Company, LP, the lenders party thereto and KeyBank National Association, as administrative agent. The 2016 Credit Agreement provides for a multi-currency revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $1.0 billion (the 2016 Revolving Credit Facility) and a term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $830.0 million (the 2016 Term Loan Facility), each of which, unless terminated earlier, mature on March 1, 2021. In addition, the Company has the ability from time to time to request an increase to the size of the 2016 Revolving Credit Facility or establish one or more new term loans under the 2016 Term Loan Facility in an aggregate amount up to $750.0 million, subject to the discretionary participation of the lenders. At January 31, 2020, the Company had no outstanding balance under the 2016 Term Loan Facility and $235.0 million outstanding under the 2016 Revolving Credit Facility. $763.8 million was available under the 2016 Revolving Credit Facility.
If interest rates were to increase or decrease by 1% or 100 basis points, quarterly interest expense would increase or decrease by approximately $4.6 million based on average debt outstanding for the first quarter of fiscal 2020.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Based on management’s evaluation (with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (our Principal Executive Officer) and Chief Financial Officer (our Principal Financial Officer)), as of the end of the period covered by this report, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the Exchange Act)) are effective to provide reasonable assurance that 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 Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Effective November 1, 2019, we adopted ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). Changes were made to the relevant business processes and the related control activities, including information systems, in order to monitor and maintain appropriate controls over financial reporting. There were no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rule 13a-15(d) and 15d-15(d) of the Exchange Act that occurred during the first quarter of fiscal 2020, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
Information regarding legal proceedings is included in Note 13. Contingencies of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
Our business faces significant risks. These risks include those described below and may include additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial. Our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected by any of these risks, and the trading prices of our common stock could decline by virtue of these risks. These risks should be read in conjunction with the other information in this report.
Risk factors describing the major risks to our business can be found under Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2019. In the first quarter of fiscal 2020, we updated some of our risk factors as described below. There are no other material changes in our risk factors from those previously discussed in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2019.
Our substantial and expanding international operations are subject to uncertainties which could affect our operating results.
A significant portion of our current operations are conducted and located outside the United States, and our growth strategy involves expanding our existing foreign operations and entering into new foreign jurisdictions. We have significant manufacturing and distribution sites in North America, Latin America and Europe. Over half of our net sales for the fiscal years ended October 31, 2019 and 2018, were derived from the sale of products outside the United States. We believe that sales outside the United States will continue to account for a material portion of our total net sales for the foreseeable future. International operations and business expansion plans are subject to numerous additional risks, including:
• | we may have difficulty enforcing intellectual property rights in some foreign countries; |
• | we may have difficulty gaining market share in countries such as Japan and China because of regulatory restrictions and customer preferences; |
• | we may find it difficult to grow in emerging markets such as China, India, Russia, Brazil and other developing nations due to, among other things, customer acceptance, undeveloped and/or unfamiliar distribution channels, regulatory restrictions and changes, and business knowledge of these new markets; |
• | tax rates in some foreign countries may exceed those of the United States, and foreign earnings may be subject to withholding requirements or the imposition of tariffs, exchange controls or other restrictions, including the tariffs enacted by the U.S. government on various imports from China and by the Chinese government on certain U.S. goods, the scope and duration of which remain uncertain; |
• | we may find it difficult to comply with a variety of United States and foreign legal, compliance and regulatory requirements such as the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, the United Kingdom (U.K.) Bribery Act and international data security and privacy laws and MDR and IVDR; |
• | we may find it difficult to manage a large organization spread throughout various countries; |
• | fluctuations in currency exchange rates could adversely affect our results; |
• | foreign customers may have longer payment cycles than customers in the United States; |
• | failure to comply with United States Department of Commerce and other nations' import-export controls may result in fines and/or penalties; |
• | general economic and political conditions in the countries where we operate may have an adverse effect on our operations in those countries or not be favorable to our growth strategy; |
• | natural disasters (including pandemics), war, terrorism, labor disruptions and international conflicts may cause significant economic disruption and political and social instability, resulting in decreased demand for our products, adversely affecting our manufacturing and distribution capabilities, or causing interruptions in our supply chain; |
36
• | foreign governments may adopt regulations, including those similar to MDR and IVDR or take other actions that would have a direct or indirect adverse impact on our business and market opportunities, including but not limited to increased enforcement of potentially conflicting and ambiguous anti-bribery laws; |
• | we may have difficulty enforcing agreements and collecting receivables through some foreign legal systems; and |
• | we may be subject to unforeseen economic or political events in certain countries that may have an impact on our customers' ability or preferences to buy our products. |
The recent outbreak of a strain of the coronavirus referred to as COVID-19, which has begun to spread globally, will have a negative impact on our near-term financial results as a result of deferred or lost sales and disrupted supply chain and operations. The longer-term impact is difficult to assess or predict at this time and depending on the scope of the spread and intensity of this coronavirus outbreak, it could have a material adverse effect on other aspects of our operations or the operations of our significant suppliers and customers.
As we continue to expand our business globally, our success will depend, in large part, on our ability to anticipate and effectively manage these and other risks associated with our international operations. However, any of these factors could adversely affect our international operations and, consequently, our operating results.
The results of the United Kingdom’s withdrawal from the European Union may have a negative effect on global economic conditions, financial markets and our business.
We are a multinational company headquartered in the United States with worldwide operations, with significant business operations in Europe, including in the United Kingdom. In June 2016, a majority of voters in the United Kingdom elected to withdraw from the European Union in a national referendum (Brexit). In March 2017, the government of the United Kingdom formally gave notice of its intent to withdraw from the European Union (EU). On January 31, 2020, the United Kingdom ceased to be a member state of the EU. EU law applicable to the United Kingdom continues to apply to and in the United Kingdom for the duration of a transition period which is presently scheduled to expire on December 31, 2020 (the “Transition Period”). During the Transition Period, the EU and the United Kingdom will negotiate the terms of their future relationship. There is no assurance that such negotiations will be successful and it is uncertain what, if any, laws similar to those of the EU will continue to apply in and to the United Kingdom following the expiration of the Transition Period. Since a significant proportion of the United Kingdom’s regulatory framework is derived from EU directives and regulations, EU law ceasing to apply in and to the United Kingdom following the expiration of the Transition Period could materially impact the regulatory regime with respect to the movement and approval of our products to and from the United Kingdom and EU. We could face new regulatory costs and challenges that could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations. Until expiration of the Transition Period and the future relationship between the EU and the United Kingdom is established, it is difficult to anticipate Brexit’s potential impact.
Cybersecurity threats continue to increase in frequency and sophistication; a successful cybersecurity attack could interrupt or disrupt our information technology systems or cause the loss of confidential or protected data which could disrupt our business, force us to incur excessive costs or cause reputational harm.
The size and complexity of our information systems make such systems potentially vulnerable to service interruptions or to security breaches from inadvertent or intentional actions by our employees or vendors, or from attacks by malicious third parties. Such attacks are of ever-increasing levels of sophistication and are made by groups and individuals with a wide range of motives and expertise. Like many other companies, we experience attempted cybersecurity actions on a frequent basis, and the frequency of such attempts could increase in the future. While we have invested in the protection of data and information technology, there can be no assurance that our efforts will prevent or quickly identify service interruptions or security breaches. Any such interruption or breach of our systems could adversely affect our business operations and/or result in the loss of critical or sensitive confidential information or intellectual property, and could result in financial, legal, business and reputational harm to us. We maintain cyber liability insurance; however, this insurance may not be sufficient to cover the financial, legal, business or reputational losses that may result from an interruption or breach of our systems.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
There was no share repurchase activity during the first quarter ended January 31, 2020.
The Share Repurchase Program was approved by the Company’s Board of Directors in December 2011 (the 2012 Share Repurchase Program). The program as amended in December 2012, December 2013 and March 2017 provides authorization to repurchase up to a total of $1.0 billion of the Company's common stock. Purchases under the 2012 Share Repurchase Program may be made from time-to-time on the open market at prevailing market prices or in privately negotiated transactions and are subject to a review of the circumstances in place at the time and will be made from time to time as permitted by securities laws and other legal requirements. This program has no expiration date and may be discontinued at any time.
At January 31, 2020, approximately $407.4 million remained authorized under the 2012 Share Repurchase Program.
