ENVISTA HOLDINGS CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
NOTE 1. BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Business Overview

The Company provides products that are used to diagnose, treat and prevent disease and ailments of the teeth, gums and supporting bone, as well as to improve the aesthetics of the human smile. The Company is a worldwide provider of a broad range of dental implants, orthodontic appliances, general dental consumables, equipment and services and is dedicated to driving technological innovations that help dental professionals improve clinical outcomes and enhance productivity.

The Company operates in two business segments: Specialty Products & Technologies and Equipment & Consumables.
The Company’s Specialty Products & Technologies segment primarily develops, manufactures and markets dental implant systems, including regenerative solutions, dental prosthetics and associated treatment software and technologies, as well as orthodontic bracket systems, aligners and lab products. The Company’s Equipment & Consumables segment primarily develops, manufactures and markets dental equipment and supplies used in dental offices, including digital imaging systems, software and other visualization/magnification systems; endodontic systems and related consumables; and restorative materials and instruments, rotary burs, impression materials, bonding agents and cements and infection prevention products.

Basis of Presentation
All revenues and costs as well as assets and liabilities directly associated with the business activity of the Company are included in the financial statements. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions between the businesses comprising the Company have been eliminated in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included herein have been prepared by the Company without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations; however, the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments and reclassifications to conform to current year presentation) necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of September 29, 2023 and December 31, 2022, and its results of operations for the three and nine month periods ended September 29, 2023 and September 30, 2022 and cash flows for the nine month periods ended September 29, 2023 and September 30, 2022. The information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes for the three years ended December 31, 2022, included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed by the Company with the SEC on February 16, 2023.

As discussed in Note 3, Discontinued Operations, on December 31, 2021, the Company sold substantially all of its KaVo dental treatment unit and instrument business (the "KaVo Treatment Unit and Instrument Business"), which was part of the Company’s Equipment and Consumables segment. However, the transfer of assets in certain countries was not executed and closed until 2022 (“Deferred Local Closing”). As a result, the financial results related to the Deferred Local Closing countries were reported as discontinued operations and all segment information and descriptions exclude the activity related to those countries for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. As of December 31, 2022, all Deferred Local Closings were completed and therefore there is no discontinued operations activity reported for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023.

Risks and Uncertainties

The Company is subject to risks and uncertainties as a result of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic.

The extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company remains uncertain and difficult to predict because of the dynamic and evolving nature of the situation. The global impact of the outbreak continues to adversely affect many industries, and different geographies continue to reflect the effects of public health restrictions in various ways. The economic recovery following the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is only partially underway and has been gradual, uneven and characterized by meaningful dispersion across sectors and regions with uncertainty regarding its ultimate length and trajectory. During the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023, notwithstanding improvement in many markets in which the Company operates due to a return to more normalized business operations, certain markets continued to be adversely impacted by COVID-19.

In addition, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and the global response to this invasion, including sanctions imposed by the U.S. and other countries, could have an adverse impact on the Company’s overall business, including impacting the Company’s ability to market and sell products in the affected regions, potentially heightening the risk of cyber security attacks, impacting its ability to enforce its intellectual property rights in Russia, creating disruptions in the global supply chain, and by potentially having an adverse impact on the global economy, financial markets, energy markets, currency rates and otherwise.

Accounting Standards Recently Adopted

In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update 2020-06, “Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815 – 40),” (“ASU 2020-06”), which simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts on an entity’s own equity. ASU 2020-06 was effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. On January 1, 2022, the Company adopted ASU 2020-06 using the modified retrospective adoption approach. The cumulative effect of the change was recognized as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings at the date of adoption and resulted in a $75.0 million increase to the carrying value of the convertible notes due 2025, a decrease to additional paid-in capital of $77.8 million, a $21.4 million increase to retained earnings and an $18.6 million decrease to the related net deferred tax liability.

NOTE 2. ACQUISITIONS
The Company continually evaluates potential acquisitions that either strategically fit with the Company’s existing portfolio or expand the Company’s portfolio into new and attractive business areas. The Company has completed a number of acquisitions that have been accounted for as business combinations and have resulted in the recognition of goodwill in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Among other things, goodwill arises because the purchase prices for these businesses reflect a number of factors including the future earnings and cash flow potential of these businesses, the multiple to earnings, cash flow and other factors at which similar businesses have been purchased by other acquirers, the competitive nature of the processes by which the Company acquired the businesses, avoidance of the time and costs which would be required (and the associated risks that would be encountered) to enhance the Company’s existing product offerings to key target markets and enter into new and profitable businesses and the complementary strategic fit and resulting synergies these businesses bring to existing operations.

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 and assumed liabilities. The Company obtains this information during due diligence and through other sources. For those assets and liabilities that were accounted for on a preliminary basis, the Company may up to 12 months after closing, refine the estimates of fair value and more accurately allocate the purchase price. Only items that existed as of the acquisition date are considered for subsequent adjustment.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company completed the following acquisitions which were accounted for under Accounting Standards Codification 805 Business Combinations using the acquisition method of accounting:

9


Osteogenics Biomedical Inc., Allotech LLC and OBI Biologics, Inc.
On July 5, 2022, the Company acquired all of the equity of Osteogenics Biomedical Inc., Allotech LLC and OBI Biologics, Inc. (together "Osteogenics") for total consideration of approximately $128.2 million, subject to certain customary adjustments as provided in the Equity Purchase Agreement dated May 17, 2022. Osteogenics develops innovative regenerative solutions for periodontists, oral and maxillofacial surgeons, and clinicians involved in implant dentistry throughout the world, and is part of the Company’s Specialty Products & Technologies segment.

Carestream Dental Technology Parent Limited’s Intraoral Scanner Business
On April 20, 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of Carestream Dental Technology Parent Limited’s (“Carestream Dental”) intraoral scanner business (the “Intraoral Scanner Business”) for total consideration of $580.3 million and subject to certain customary adjustments as provided in the Stock and Asset Purchase Agreement dated December 21, 2021 and as subsequently amended by the closing agreement dated as of April 20, 2022 (together, the “IOS Purchase Agreement”). The Intraoral Scanner Business manufactures, markets, sells, commercializes, distributes, services, trains, supports, and maintains operations of intraoral scanners and software, and is part of the Company’s Equipment & Consumables segment. The Company purchased the Intraoral Scanner Business through the acquisition of certain assets and the assumption of certain liabilities as well as the acquisition of all of the equity of certain subsidiaries of Carestream Dental.

The following table summarizes the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the respective acquisition dates ($ in millions):

Osteogenics

   Prepaids and Other Current Assets1.3 —

   Non-current deferred tax asset— 96.0 
   Operating lease right-of-use assets2.6 0.9 
   Other long-term assets4.9 0.2 
       Total assets acquired157.0 609.2 
Liabilities assumed:
   Accounts payable (4.1)(0.5)
   Accrued expenses and other liabilities (2.5)(27.9)
   Non-current deferred tax liability(14.3)— 
   Other long-term liabilities(5.8)— 
   Operating lease liabilities(2.1)(0.5)
       Total liabilities assumed(28.8)(28.9)
Total net assets acquired$128.2 $580.3 


The intangible assets acquired consist of trade name, developed technology, and customer relationships. The weighted average amortization period of the acquired intangible assets in the aggregate is 8 and 10 years for the Intraoral Scanner Business and Osteogenics, respectively.

10


The excess of the purchase price over the fair value assigned to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed represents the goodwill resulting from the acquisitions. Goodwill attributable to the acquisitions has been recorded as a non-current asset and is not amortized, but is subject to review at least on an annual basis for impairment. Goodwill recognized was primarily attributable to expected operating efficiencies and expansion opportunities in the businesses acquired. Goodwill is not deductible for income tax purposes. The pro forma impact of the acquisitions is not presented as the acquisitions were not considered material to the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, legal, accounting, and other professional service costs associated with acquisitions were $1.5 million and $13.4 million, respectively, and have been recorded as selling, general and administrative expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. For the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023, there were no legal, accounting, and other professional service costs associated with acquisitions.

NOTE 3. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
On December 31, 2021, the Company sold substantially all of the KaVo Treatment Unit and Instrument Business (the “Divestiture”) to planmeca Verwaltungs Gmbh, Germany (“Planmeca”), pursuant to the master sale and purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) among the Company, Planmeca, and Planmeca Oy, as guarantor. However, the transfer of assets for Deferred Local Closing countries was not executed and closed until 2022. As of December 31, 2022, all Deferred Local Closings were completed and the Company received total net cash consideration of $386.4 million in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recognized an earnout payment of $30.0 million. As all Deferred Local Closings were completed as of December 31, 2022, there are no discontinued operations reported for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023.

The operating results of the Divestiture for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 are reflected in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations within income from discontinued operations, net of tax as follows ($ in millions):

NOTE 4. CREDIT LOSSES

The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account deducted from accounts receivable to present the net amount expected to be collected. Accounts receivable are charged off against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of an accounts receivable balance is confirmed.

Management estimates the adequacy of the allowance by using relevant available information, from internal and external sources, relating to past events, current conditions and forecasts. Historical credit loss experience provides the basis for estimation of expected credit losses and is adjusted as necessary using the relevant information available. The allowance for credit losses is measured on a collective basis when similar risk characteristics exist. The Company has identified one portfolio segment based on the following risk characteristics: geographic regions, product lines, default rates and customer specific factors.

The factors used by management in its credit loss analysis are inherently subject to uncertainty. If actual results are not consistent with management’s estimates and assumptions, the allowance for credit losses may be overstated or understated and a charge or credit to net income (loss) may be required.

NOTE 9.  HEDGING TRANSACTIONS AND DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company uses cross-currency swap derivative contracts to partially hedge its net investments in foreign operations against adverse movements in exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and the euro. The cross-currency swap derivative contracts are agreements to exchange fixed-rate payments in one currency for fixed-rate payments in another currency. On January 17, 2023, the Company entered into a two-year cross-currency swap derivative contract, with a notional value of $150.0 million. This contract effectively converts a portion of the Company’s U.S. dollar denominated senior term loan facilities to obligations denominated in euros and partially offsets the impact of changes in currency rates on foreign currency denominated net investments. This instrument matures on January 17, 2025.

The Company also has foreign currency denominated long-term debt consisting of a senior euro term loan facility. The senior euro term loan facility represents a partial hedge of the Company’s net investment in foreign operations against adverse movements in exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and the euro. The senior euro term loan facility is designated and qualifies as a non-derivative hedging instrument.
Refer to Note 13 for further discussion of the Company’s debt and credit facilities.

The change in the fair value of the cross-currency swap instrument and the foreign currency translation of the senior euro term loan facilities are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss in equity in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, partially offsetting the foreign currency translation adjustment of the Company’s related net investment that is also recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss as reflected in Note 14.

13


The Company has also used interest rate swap derivative contracts to reduce its variability of cash flows related to interest payments with respect to its senior term and senior euro term loan facilities. The interest rate swap contracts exchanged interest payments based on variable rates for interest payments based on fixed rates. The changes in the fair value of these instruments were recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss in equity (see Note 14). The interest income or expense from the cross-currency and interest rate swaps were recorded in interest expense, net in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations consistent with the classification of interest expense attributable to the underlying debt. The Company did not have any outstanding interest rate swap contracts as of September 29, 2023.

The following table summarizes the notional values as of September 29, 2023 and September 30, 2022 and pretax impact of changes in the fair values of instruments designated as net investment and cash flow hedges in accumulated other comprehensive loss (“OCI”) for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023 and September 30, 2022 ($ in millions):

The Company did not reclassify any deferred gains or losses related to net investment and cash flow hedges from accumulated other comprehensive loss to income during the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023 and September 30, 2022. In addition, the Company did not have any ineffectiveness related to net investment and cash flow hedges and therefore did not reclassify any portion of the above net investment and cash flow hedges from accumulated other comprehensive loss into income during the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023 and September 30, 2022. The cash inflows and outflows associated with the Company’s derivative contracts designated as net investment hedges are classified in investing activities in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

The Company’s derivative instruments, as well as its non-derivative debt instruments designated and qualifying as net investment hedges, were classified in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as follows ($ in millions):

NOTE 10. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Accounting standards define fair value based on an exit price model, establish a framework for measuring fair value where the Company’s assets and liabilities are required to be carried at fair value and provide for certain disclosures related to the valuation methods used within a valuation hierarchy as established within the accounting standards. This hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three broad levels as follows: Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2 inputs are quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active, or other observable characteristics for the asset or liability, including interest rates, yield curves and credit risks, or inputs that are derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data through correlation; and Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs based on the Company’s assumptions. A financial asset or liability’s classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.
A summary of financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis were as follows ($ in millions):

Derivative Instruments
The cross-currency swap derivative contract was classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy as it is measured using the income approach with the relevant, foreign currency current exchange rates and forward curves as inputs. Refer to Note 9 for additional information.

Deferred Compensation Plans
Certain management employees of the Company participate in nonqualified deferred compensation programs that permit such employees to defer a portion of their compensation, on a pretax basis. All amounts deferred under this plan are unfunded, unsecured obligations and are presented as a component of the Company’s compensation and benefits accrual included in accrued expenses in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (refer to Note 8). Participants may choose among alternative earnings rates for the amounts they defer, which are primarily based on investment options within the Company’s 401(k) program. Changes in the deferred compensation liability under these programs are recognized based on changes in the fair value of the participants’ accounts, which are based on the applicable earnings rates on investment options within the Company’s 401(k) program. Amounts voluntarily deferred by employees into the Company stock fund and amounts contributed to participant accounts by the Company are deemed invested in the Company’s common stock and future distributions of such contributions will be made solely in shares of Company common stock, and therefore are not reflected in the above amounts.
Contingent Consideration
Contingent consideration represents a cash hold back intended to be used for certain liabilities related to the Company’s acquisitions. Contingent consideration was classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy as the estimated fair value was measured using a probability weighted discounted cash flow model.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The fair value of long-term debt approximates the carrying value as these borrowings are based on variable market rates. The fair value of the convertible senior notes due 2028 and convertible senior notes due 2025 were determined based on the quoted bid price of the convertible senior notes in an over-the-counter market on September 29, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The convertible senior notes are considered as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, which consist primarily of money market funds, time and demand deposits, trade accounts receivable, net and trade accounts payable approximate their carrying amounts due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.

NOTE 11. WARRANTY
The Company generally accrues estimated warranty costs at the time of sale. In general, manufactured products are warranted against defects in material and workmanship when properly used for their intended purpose, installed correctly and appropriately maintained. Warranty periods depend on the nature of the product and range from 90 days up to the life of the product. The amount of the accrued warranty liability is determined based on historical information such as past experience, product failure rates or number of units repaired, estimated cost of material and labor and in certain instances estimated property damage. The accrued warranty liability is reviewed on a quarterly basis and may be adjusted as additional information regarding expected warranty costs becomes known.
The following is a rollforward of the Company’s accrued warranty liability ($ in millions):

NOTE 12. LITIGATION AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company records accruals for loss contingencies associated with legal matters when it is probable that a liability will be incurred, and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated.

For litigation matters that the Company has determined are both probable and can be reasonably estimated, the Company has accrued $36.7 million and $35.7 million as of September 29, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, which are included in accrued liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company has accrued for these matters and will continue to monitor each related legal issue and adjust accruals as might be warranted based on new information and further developments in accordance with ASC 450-20-25. Amounts accrued for legal contingencies often result from a complex series of judgments about future events and uncertainties that rely heavily on estimates and assumptions including timing of related payments. The ability to make such estimates and judgments can be affected by various factors including, among other things, whether damages sought in the proceedings are unsubstantiated or indeterminate; legal discovery has not commenced or is not complete; proceedings are in early stages; matters present legal uncertainties; there are significant facts in dispute; procedural or jurisdictional issues; the uncertainty and unpredictability of the number of potential claims; or there are numerous parties involved. To the extent adverse verdicts have been rendered against the Company, the Company does not record an accrual until a loss is determined to be probable and can be reasonably estimated. In the Company's opinion, based on its examination of these matters, its experience to date and discussions with counsel, the ultimate outcome of legal proceedings, net of liabilities accrued in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position. However, the resolution of, or increase in accruals for one or more of these matters in any reporting period may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations and cash flows for that period.

Credit Facilities
On August 31, 2023, the Company entered into a second amended and restated credit agreement (the “Second Amended Credit Agreement”), which amends and restates the Company’s credit agreement dated June 15, 2021. The amended and restated credit agreement dated June 15, 2021, consisted of the $650.0 million 2024 Term Loan and the €208.0 million 2024 Euro Term Loan. Additionally, the amended and restated credit agreement dated June 15, 2021, included a revolving credit facility with an aggregate available borrowing capacity of $750.0 million and a $20.0 million sublimit for the issuance of standby letters of credit. There were no borrowings outstanding under this revolving credit facility at December 31, 2022.

17


Under the Second Amended Credit Agreement, the Company entered into the 2028 Term Loan for $530.0 million and the 2028 Euro Term Loan for €350.0 million, (collectively the “2028 Term Loans”). The Second Amended Credit Agreement also includes a revolving credit facility (together with the 2028 Term Loans, the “New Senior Credit Facilities”) with an aggregate available borrowing capacity of $750.0 million and a $30.0 million sublimit for the issuance of standby letters of credit that can be used for working capital and other general corporate purposes. The Company may request further increases to the revolving credit facility by an amount that is the greater of 100% of Consolidated EBITDA or $525.0 million. As of September 29, 2023 there were no borrowings outstanding under this revolving credit facility. The New Senior Credit Facilities mature on August 31, 2028, and are subject to an earlier maturity date of 91 days prior to the maturity date of the 2028 Convertible Notes, if more than $250.0 million of such notes are outstanding at that time.

The proceeds from the 2028 Term Loans were used to pay outstanding balances of the 2024 Term Loan and the 2024 Euro Term Loan. Additionally, the Company paid fees aggregating approximately $5.2 million in connection with the Second Amended Credit Agreement.

Under the New Senior Credit Facilities, borrowings bear interest as follows: (1) Term SOFR Loans (as defined in the Second Amended Credit Agreement) bear interest at a variable rate on a forward-looking Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) term rate plus 0.10% credit spread adjustment plus a margin of between 0.910% and 1.625%, depending on the Company’s Consolidated Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Second Amended Credit Agreement) as of the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter; and (2) Base Rate Loans (as defined in the Second Amended Credit Agreement) bear interest at a variable rate equal to (a) the highest of (i) the Federal funds rate (as published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York from time to time) plus 0.50%, (ii) Bank of America’s “prime rate” as publicly announced from time to time, (iii) the Term SOFR (as defined in the Second Amended Credit Agreement) plus 1.0% and (iv) 1.0%, plus a margin of between 0.0% and 0.625%, depending on the Company’s Consolidated Leverage Ratio as of the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter. In no event will Term SOFR Loans or Base Rate Loans bear interest at a rate lower than 0.0%. In addition, the Company is required to pay a per annum facility fee of between 0.09% and 0.225% depending on the Company’s Consolidated Leverage Ratio as of the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter and based on the aggregate commitments under the revolving credit facility, whether drawn or not.

The interest rates for borrowings under the 2028 Term Loan and 2028 Euro Term Loan were 6.74% and 5.05% as of September 29, 2023, respectively. Interest is payable monthly for the 2028 Term Loans. The Company is required to maintain a Consolidated Leverage Ratio of 4.00 to 1.00 or less and includes a provision that the maximum Consolidated Leverage Ratio will be increased to 4.50 to 1.00 for the three consecutive full fiscal quarters immediately following the consummation of any acquisition by the Company or any subsidiary of the Company in which the purchase price exceeds $100.0 million. The Company is also required to maintain a Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) of at least 3.00 to 1.00. The Company is subject to customary representations, warranties, conditions precedent, events of default, indemnities and affirmative and negative covenants, including covenants that, among other things, limit or restrict the Company’s and/or the Company’s subsidiaries’ ability, subject to certain exceptions and qualifications, to incur liens or indebtedness, merge, consolidate or sell or otherwise transfer assets, make dividends or distributions, enter into transactions with the Company’s affiliates and use proceeds of the debt financing for other than permitted uses. Additionally, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an event of default, the lenders may declare the outstanding advances and all other obligations immediately due and payable. The Company was in compliance with all of its debt covenants as of September 29, 2023.

The interest rates for borrowings as of December 31, 2022, for the 2024 Term Loan and the 2024 Euro Term Loan were 5.98% and 3.28%, respectively.

2028 Convertible Notes

On August 10, 2023, the Company issued the 2028 Convertible Notes due on August 15, 2028, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. The aggregate principal amount, which includes the initial purchasers’ exercise in full of their option to purchase an additional $65.2 million principal amount, was $500.2 million. The net proceeds from the issuance, after deducting purchasers’ discounts and estimated offering expenses, were $485.9 million. The Company used a portion of the net proceeds to pay the cash portion of the consideration in the exchange transaction described below under “Convertible Debt Exchanges”.

The 2028 Convertible Notes will accrue interest at a rate of 1.75% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on February 15 and August 15 of each year. The 2028 Convertible Notes have an initial conversion rate of 21.5942 shares of the Company’s common stock per $1,000 principal amount, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $46.31 per share of the Company’s common stock and is subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of specified events. The 2028 Convertible Notes are governed by an indenture dated as of August 10, 2023 (the “Indenture”) between the Company and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee. The Indenture does not contain any financial covenants or any restrictions on the payment of dividends, the incurrence of senior debt or other indebtedness or the issuance or repurchase of the Company’s securities by the Company.

The 2028 Convertible Notes are senior, unsecured obligations and are (i) equal in right of payment with the Company’s existing and future senior, unsecured indebtedness; (ii) senior in right of payment to the Company’s existing and future indebtedness that is expressly subordinated to the 2028 Convertible Notes; (iii) effectively subordinated to the Company’s existing and future secured indebtedness, to the extent of the value of the collateral securing that indebtedness; and (iv) structurally subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities, including trade payables, and (to the extent the Company is not a holder thereof) preferred equity, if any, of the Company’s subsidiaries.

Holders of the 2028 Convertible Notes may convert at any time on or after February 15, 2028 until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date. Holders will also have the right to convert prior to February 15, 2028, but only upon the occurrence of specified events. The Company will settle conversion by paying the principal amount in cash and any conversion value in excess of the principal amount in cash or a combination of cash and shares of the Company’s common stock. If a fundamental change occurs prior to the maturity date, holders may require the Company to repurchase all or a portion of their 2028 Convertible Notes for cash at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount plus any accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, if specific corporate events occur prior to the maturity date, the Company would increase the conversion rate for a holder who elects to convert in connection with such an event in certain circumstances. As of September 29, 2023, none of the conditions permitting early conversion by holders had been met, therefore, the 2028 Convertible Notes are classified as long-term debt.

The 2028 Convertible Notes will be redeemable, in whole or in part, at the Company’s option at any time, and from time to time, on or after August 17, 2026 and on or before the 40th scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, at a cash redemption price equal to the principal amount to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding the redemption date, but only if the last reported sale price per share of the Company’s common stock exceeds 130% of the conversion price on (i) each of at least 20 trading days, whether or not consecutive, during the 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the trading day immediately before the date the Company sends the related redemption notice; and (ii) the trading day immediately before the date the Company sends such notice. In addition, calling any 2028 Convertible Note for redemption will constitute a “Make-Whole Fundamental Change” (as defined in the Indenture) with respect to that 2028 Convertible Note, in which case the conversion rate applicable to the conversion will be increased in certain circumstances if it is converted after it is called for redemption.
19



The 2028 Convertible Notes are accounted for in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 470 “Debt” and ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging”. The Company has evaluated all the embedded conversion options contained in the 2028 Convertible Notes to determine if there are embedded features that require bifurcation as a derivative as required by U.S. GAAP. Based on the Company’s analysis, it accounts for the 2028 Convertible Notes as single units of accounting, a liability, because the Company concluded that the conversion features do not require bifurcation as a derivative.

2025 Convertible Senior Notes

On May 21, 2020, the Company issued the 2025 Convertible Notes due on June 1, 2025, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. The aggregate principal amount, which includes the initial purchasers’ exercise in full of their option to purchase an additional $67.5 million principal amount was $517.5 million. The net proceeds from the issuance, after deducting purchasers’ discounts and estimated offering expenses, were $502.6 million. The Company used part of the net proceeds to pay for the capped call transactions (“Capped Calls”) as further described below. The 2025 Convertible Notes accrue interest at a rate of 2.375% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year. The 2025 Convertible Notes have an initial conversion rate of 47.5862 shares of the Company’s common stock per $1,000 principal amount, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $21.01 per share of the Company’s common stock and is subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of specified events. The 2025 Convertible Notes are governed by an indenture dated as of May 21, 2020 (the “2025 Convertible Note Indenture”) between the Company and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee. The 2025 Convertible Note Indenture does not contain any financial covenants or any restrictions on the payment of dividends, the incurrence of senior debt or other indebtedness or the issuance or repurchase of the Company’s securities by the Company.

The 2025 Convertible Notes are senior, unsecured obligations and are (i) equal in right of payment with the Company’s existing and future senior, unsecured indebtedness; (ii) senior in right of payment to the Company’s existing and future indebtedness that is expressly subordinated to the 2025 Convertible Notes; (iii) effectively subordinated to the Company’s existing and future secured indebtedness, to the extent of the value of the collateral securing that indebtedness; and (iv) structurally subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities, including trade payables, and (to the extent the Company is not a holder thereof) preferred equity, if any, of the Company’s subsidiaries.

Holders may convert at any time on or after December 2, 2024, until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day preceding the maturity date. Holders will also have the right to convert prior to December 2, 2024, but only upon the occurrence of specified events. The Company will settle conversion requests by paying the principal amount in cash and any conversion value in excess of the principal amount in cash or a combination of cash and shares of the Company’s common stock. If a fundamental change occurs prior to the maturity date, holders may require the Company to repurchase all or a portion of their 2025 Convertible Notes for cash at a repurchase price equal to 100.0% of the principal amount plus any accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, if specific corporate events occur prior to the maturity date, the Company would increase the conversion rate for a holder who elects to convert in connection with such an event in certain circumstances. As of September 29, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the stock price exceeded 130% of the conversion price of $21.01 in 20 days of the final 30 trading days ended September 29, 2023 and December 31, 2022, which satisfied one of the conditions permitting early conversion by holders, therefore, the 2025 Convertible Notes are classified as short-term debt.

The 2025 Convertible Notes are redeemable, in whole or in part, at the Company’s option at any time, and from time to time, after June 1, 2023 and on or before the 40th scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, at a cash redemption price equal to the principal amounts to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding the redemption date, but only if the last reported sale price per share of the Company’s common stock exceeds 130.0% of the conversion price on (i) each of at least 20 trading days, whether or not consecutive, during the 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the trading day immediately before the date the Company sends the related redemption notice; and (ii) the trading day immediately before the date the Company sends such notice. In addition, calling any 2025 Convertible Note for redemption will constitute a “Make-Whole Fundamental Change”, as defined in the 2025 Convertible Note Indenture, in which case the conversion rate applicable to the conversion will be increased in certain circumstances if it is converted after it is called for redemption. On August 10, 2023, the Company settled $401.2 million of principal amount of 2025 Convertible Notes in the exchange transaction described below.

On August 10, 2023, the Company entered into exchange agreements with a limited number of holders of the 2025 Convertible Notes to exchange $401.2 million principal amount of the 2025 Convertible Notes for aggregate consideration which consisted of approximately $403.0 million in cash, which included accrued interest, and approximately 8.4 million shares of the Company’s common stock (“Notes Exchanges”). The Company recognized a non-cash inducement charge of $28.5 million in connection with the Notes Exchanges which was recorded within Other Expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, a reduction of $4.4 million of unamortized debt issuance costs, and an increase in additional paid-in capital of $24.1 million.

The following table sets forth total interest expense recognized related to convertible notes ($ in millions):

Three Months EndedNine Months Ended

   2025 Convertible Notes0.4 0.7 $1.9 2.2 
Total interest expense
$4.2 $3.8 $11.8 $11.4 

For the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023, the debt issuance costs were amortized using an annual effective interest rate of 2.4% and 3.0% for the 2028 Convertible Notes and the 2025 Convertible Notes, respectively.

As of September 29, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the if-converted value of the 2025 Convertible Notes exceeded the outstanding principal amount by $38.0 million and $311.7 million, respectively.
Debt Issuance Costs

The remaining unamortized debt issuance costs for debt outstanding were as follows ($ in millions):
September 29, 2023December 31, 2022
2028 Convertible Notes$13.9 $— 
2025 Convertible Notes1.2 7.5 
Term Loans4.4 1.7 
Euro Term Loans1.0 0.3 
$20.5 $9.5 

The above unamortized debt issuance costs have been netted against their respective aggregate principal amounts of the related debt and are being amortized to interest expense over the term of the respective debt.

Capped Call Transactions

In connection with the offering of the 2025 Convertible Notes, the Company entered into Capped Calls with certain counterparties. The Capped Calls have an initial strike price of approximately $21.01 per share, subject to certain adjustments, which corresponds to the initial conversion price of the 2025 Convertible Notes. The Capped Calls have initial cap prices of $23.79 per share, subject to certain adjustments. The Capped Calls are generally intended to reduce or offset the potential dilution from shares of common stock issued upon any conversion of the 2025 Convertible Notes with such reduction or offset, as the case may be, subject to a cap based on the cap price. As the Capped Call transactions are considered indexed to the Company's own stock and are considered equity classified, they are recorded in equity and are not accounted for as derivatives. The cost of $20.7 million incurred in connection with the Capped Calls was recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital.

21


On August 10, 2023, in connection with the Notes Exchanges, the Company completed a partial unwind of the Capped Calls resulting in the receipt of 1.0 million shares of its common stock.

NOTE 15. REVENUE
The following table presents the Company’s revenues disaggregated by geographical region for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023 and September 30, 2022 ($ in millions). Sales taxes and other usage-based taxes collected from customers are excluded from revenues. The Company has historically defined emerging markets as developing markets of the world, which prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, experienced extended periods of accelerated growth in gross domestic product and infrastructure, to include Eastern Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Latin America and Asia (with the exception of Japan and Australia). The Company defines developed markets as all markets of the world that are not emerging markets.

Total$1,226.5 $694.4 $1,920.9 $1,200.2 $708.1 $1,908.3 

Remaining Performance Obligations
Remaining performance obligations include noncancelable purchase orders, extended warranty and service agreements and do not include revenue from contracts with customers with an original term of one year or less.

As of September 29, 2023, the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations was $73.6 million and the Company expects to recognize revenue on the majority of this amount over the next 12 months.
Contract Liabilities
The Company often receives cash payments from customers in advance of the Company’s performance resulting in contract liabilities. These contract liabilities are classified as either current or long-term in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets based on the timing of when the Company expects to recognize revenue. As of September 29, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the contract liabilities were $108.8 million and $87.5 million, respectively, and are included within accrued expenses and other liabilities and other long-term liabilities in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Revenue recognized during the nine months ended September 29, 2023 and September 30, 2022 that was included in the contract liability balance at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 was $66.4 million and $48.4 million, respectively.
Significant Customers
Sales to the Company’s largest customer were 13% and 11% of sales for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023, respectively. Sales to the Company’s largest customer were 11% of sales for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.
24


Seasonality
Based on historical experience, the Company generally has more sales in the second half of the calendar year than in the first half of the calendar year, with the first quarter typically having the lowest sales of the year. Based on historical customer buying patterns, the Company generally has more sales in the fourth quarter than in any other quarter of the year, driven in particular by capital spending in the Equipment & Consumables segment. As a result of this seasonality in sales, profitability in the Equipment & Consumables segment also tends to be higher in the second half of the year. There are no assurances that these historical trends will continue in the future.

NOTE 16. RESTRUCTURING ACTIVITIES AND RELATED IMPAIRMENTS
Restructuring Activities
The Company’s restructuring activities are undertaken as necessary to implement management’s strategy, streamline operations, take advantage of available capacity and resources, and ultimately achieve net cost reductions. These activities generally relate to the realignment of existing manufacturing capacity and closure of facilities and other exit or disposal activities, as it relates to executing the Company’s strategy, pursuant to significant restructuring programs.
Restructuring related charges by segment were as follows ($ in millions):

At September 29, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the restructuring liability was $13.3 million and $18.9 million, respectively.

NOTE 17. INCOME TAXES
The Company’s effective tax rates from continuing operations of 39.9% and 26.8% for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023, respectively, differ from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to the nondeductible nature of the convertible debt inducement expense for U.S. tax purposes, the Company’s geographical mix of earnings, and discrete tax items.

The Company’s effective tax rates from continuing operations of 21.5% and 21.0% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, differ from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to the Company’s geographical mix of earnings and discrete tax items.

On August 16, 2022, the U.S. enacted the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, which, among other things, implemented a 15% minimum tax on book income of certain large corporations, a 1% excise tax on net stock repurchases, and several tax incentives to promote clean energy. Based on the Company’s current analysis of the provisions, this legislation did not have a material impact on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of or for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023.

25


NOTE 18.  EARNINGS PER SHARE
Earnings per share is calculated by dividing the applicable income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the applicable period. Diluted earnings per share is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the effect of dilutive potential shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method, except for the 2028 Convertible Notes and 2025 Convertible Notes, which are calculated using the if-converted method. Dilutive potential common shares include employee equity options, non-vested shares and similar instruments granted by the Company and the assumed conversion impact of convertible notes. The Company will settle any convertible note conversions through a combination settlement by satisfying the principal amount outstanding with cash and any convertible note conversion value in excess of the principal amount in cash or shares of the Company’s common stock or any combination thereof. As the Company will settle the principal amount of convertible notes in cash upon conversion, the convertible notes only have an impact on the Company's diluted earnings per share when the average share price of the Company’s common stock exceeds the conversion price, in any applicable period. See the computation of earnings per share below for the dilutive impact of the convertible notes for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023 and September 30, 2022.

In connection with the offering of the 2025 Convertible Notes, the Company entered into Capped Calls, which are intended to reduce or offset the potential dilution from shares of common stock issued upon conversion. The Company completed a partial unwind of the Capped Calls in connection with the Notes Exchanges. Refer to Note 13 for further discussion of the Capped Calls.

The impact of the Capped Calls is not included when calculating potentially dilutive shares since their effect is anti-dilutive. The Capped Calls will mitigate dilution for the conversion of the remaining 2025 Convertible Notes up to the Company’s common stock price of $23.79. If the remaining 2025 Convertible Notes are converted at a price higher than $23.79 per share, the Capped Calls will no longer mitigate dilution from the conversion of the remaining 2025 Convertible Notes.

NOTE 19. SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company operates and reports its results in two separate business segments, the Specialty Products & Technologies and Equipment & Consumables segments. When determining the reportable segments, the Company aggregated operating segments based on their similar economic and operating characteristics. Operating profit represents total revenues less operating expenses, excluding nonoperating income (expense), interest expense and income taxes. Operating profit amounts in the Other segment consist of unallocated corporate costs and other costs not considered part of management’s evaluation of reportable segment operating performance. The identifiable assets by segment are those used in each segment’s operations. Inter-segment amounts are not significant and are eliminated to arrive at consolidated totals.

27


The Company’s Specialty Products & Technologies products primarily include implants, regenerative products, prosthetics, orthodontic brackets, aligners and lab products. The Company’s Equipment & Consumables products primarily include traditional consumables such as bonding agents and cements, impression materials, infection prevention products and restorative products, while the Company’s equipment products primarily include digital imaging systems, software and other visualization and magnification systems.

On December 31, 2021, the Company sold substantially all of its KaVo Treatment Unit and Instrument Business, which was part of the Company’s Equipment & Consumables segment. As a result, the financial results of the KaVo Treatment Unit and Instrument Business for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, were reported as discontinued operations and all segment information and descriptions exclude the KaVo Treatment Unit and Instrument Business. As of December 31, 2022, all activities related to the sale of the KaVo Treatment Unit and Instrument Business were completed and therefore there are no discontinued operations reported for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023. Refer to Note 3 for more information on the Company’s discontinued operations.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements present our historical financial position, results of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows in accordance with GAAP.
Sale of the KaVo Treatment Unit and Instrument Business
On December 31, 2021, we sold substantially all of the KaVo Treatment Unit and Instrument Business (the “Divestiture”) to planmeca Verwaltungs Gmbh, Germany (“Planmeca”), pursuant to the master sale and purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) among us, Planmeca, and Planmeca Oy, as guarantor. However, the transfer of assets in certain countries was not executed and closed until 2022 (“Deferred Local Closing”). As of December 31, 2022, all Deferred Local Closings were completed and we received total net cash consideration of $386.4 million in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement.

The Divestiture was part of our strategy to structurally improve our long-term margins and represented a strategic shift with a major effect on our operations and financial results as described in ASC 205-20. The sale met the criteria to be accounted for as a discontinued operation and therefore, we applied discontinued operations treatment for the Divestiture as required by ASC 205-20. In accordance with ASC 205-20, we have reported the financial results of the Divestiture as discontinued operations in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and have excluded the KaVo Treatment Unit and Instrument Business from all segment information and descriptions for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. Our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows include the financial results of the KaVo Treatment Unit and Instrument Business for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. As all Deferred Local Closings were completed as of December 31, 2022, there are no discontinued operations reported for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023.

For the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023, sales derived from customers outside of the United States were 51.1% and 52.1%, respectively, compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, of 49.7% and 50.8%, respectively. As a global provider of dental consumables, equipment and services, our operations are affected by worldwide, regional and industry-specific economic and political factors. Given the broad range of dental products, software and services provided and geographies served, we do not use any indices other than general economic trends to predict our overall outlook. Our individual businesses monitor key competitors and customers, including to the extent possible their sales, to gauge relative performance and the outlook for the future.
30


As a result of our geographic and product line diversity, we face a variety of opportunities and challenges, including rapid technological development in most of our served markets, the expansion and evolution of opportunities in emerging markets, trends and costs associated with a global labor force, consolidation of our competitors and increasing regulation. We operate in a highly competitive business environment in most markets, and our long-term growth and profitability will depend in particular on our ability to expand our business in emerging geographies and market segments, identify, consummate and integrate appropriate acquisitions, develop innovative and differentiated new products and services, expand and improve the effectiveness of our sales force, continue to reduce costs and improve operating efficiency and quality and effectively address the demands of an increasingly regulated global environment. We are making significant investments to address the rapid pace of technological change in our served markets and to globalize our manufacturing, research and development and customer-facing resources (particularly in emerging markets and our dental implant business) in order to be responsive to our customers throughout the world and improve the efficiency of our operations.

Key Trends and Conditions Affecting Our Results of Operations
There have been no material changes to the key trends and conditions affecting our results of operations that were disclosed in our 2022 10-K, except as follows:
Debt Financing Transactions
During the quarter ended September 29, 2023, we issued $500.2 of 2028 Convertible Notes, entered into the Second Amended Credit Agreement, and executed Notes Exchanges with a limited number of holders of the 2025 Convertible Notes consisting of approximately $403.0 in cash, which includes accrued interest, and approximately 8.4 million shares of our common stock. We recognized a non-cash inducement charge of $28.5 million in connection with the Notes Exchanges which was recorded within Other Expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
See “Liquidity and Capital Resources ─ Debt Financing Transactions” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further discussion.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rates
On a period-over-period basis, currency exchange rates negatively impacted reported sales by 0.8% and 1.2% for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023, respectively, compared to the comparable periods of 2022, primarily due to the strength of the U.S. dollar against most major currencies. Any future strengthening of the U.S. dollar against major currencies would negatively impact our sales and results of operations for the remainder of the year, and any weakening of the U.S. dollar against major currencies would positively impact our sales and results of operations for the remainder of the year.

General Economic Conditions

In addition to industry-specific factors, we, like other businesses, face challenges related to global economic conditions, including rising inflation, increasing interest rates, fluctuating foreign currency exchange rates, slowing economic growth, and continuing supply chain disruptions. Dental costs are largely out-of-pocket for the consumer and thus utilization rates can vary significantly depending on economic growth. While many of our products are considered necessary by patients regardless of the economic environment, certain products and services that support discretionary dental procedures may be more susceptible to changes in economic conditions.

Pricing Controls

Certain countries, as well as some private payors, control the price of health care products, directly or indirectly, through reimbursement, payment, pricing or coverage limitations, tying reimbursement to outcomes or (in the case of governmental entities) compulsory licensing. For example, China has implemented volume-based procurement policies, a series of centralized reforms instituted in China on both a national and regional basis that has resulted in significant price cuts for medical and dental consumables.

31


Russia-Ukraine Conflict
Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and the global response to this invasion, including sanctions imposed by the U.S. and other countries, could have an adverse impact on our business, including our ability to market and sell products in the affected regions, potentially heightening our risk of cyber security attacks, impacting our ability to enforce our intellectual property rights in Russia, creating disruptions in the global supply chain, and potentially having an adverse impact on the global economy, financial markets, energy markets, currency rates and otherwise. While we are experiencing volatility in sales from this region, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine did not have a material impact on our overall financial position or results of operations as of and for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023 and September 30, 2022.
Israel-Hamas War

In response to the attacks in Israel and the subsequent hostilities, we continue to monitor the social, political, and economic environment in Israel and in the region for any impact to our operations. Revenue generated from Israel is approximately $15 million annually. We also maintain a production facility in Israel related to our Alpha-Bio Tech Implant brand. While we anticipate some volatility in the region, the Israel-Hamas War has not had a material impact on our business.

COVID-19

The extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business remains uncertain and difficult to predict because of the dynamic and evolving nature of the situation. The global impact of the outbreak continues to adversely affect many industries, and different geographies continue to reflect the effects of public health restrictions in various ways. The economic recovery following the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is only partially underway and has been gradual, uneven and characterized by meaningful dispersion across sectors and regions with uncertainty regarding its ultimate length and trajectory. During the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023, notwithstanding improvement in many markets in which we operate due to a return to more normalized business operations, certain markets continued to be adversely impacted by COVID-19.

For additional information on certain risks to our business, please refer to the “Item 1A. Risk Factors” section of our 2022 10-K.

Acquisitions
Our growth strategy contemplates future acquisitions and we continually evaluate potential acquisitions that either strategically fit with our existing portfolio or expand our portfolio into new and attractive business areas. Our operations and results can be affected by the rate and extent to which appropriate acquisition opportunities are available, acquired businesses are effectively integrated and anticipated synergies or cost savings are achieved. During the fiscal year 2022, we completed two acquisitions.

On July 5, 2022, we acquired all of the equity of Osteogenics for total consideration of approximately $128.2 million, subject to certain customary adjustments as provided in the Equity Purchase Agreement dated May 17, 2022. Osteogenics develops innovative regenerative solutions for periodontists, oral and maxillofacial surgeons, and clinicians involved in implant dentistry throughout the world, and is part of our Specialty Products & Technologies segment.

On April 20, 2022, we completed our acquisition of Carestream Dental’s Intraoral Scanner Business for total consideration of approximately $580.3 million and subject to certain customary adjustments as provided in the IOS Purchase Agreement. The Intraoral Scanner Business manufactures, markets, sells, commercializes, distributes, services, trains, supports, and maintains operations of intraoral scanners and software, and is part of our Equipment & Consumables segment. We purchased the Intraoral Scanner Business through the acquisition of certain assets and the assumption of certain liabilities as well as the acquisition of all of the equity of certain subsidiaries of Carestream Dental.

Envista Business Systems
Throughout this discussion, references to sales volume refer to the impact of both price and unit sales and references to productivity improvements generally refer to improved cost-efficiencies resulting from the ongoing application of Envista Business Systems (“EBS”). We believe our deep-rooted commitment to EBS helps drive our market leadership and differentiates us in the dental products industry. EBS encompasses not only lean tools and processes, but also methods for driving growth, innovation and leadership. Within the EBS framework, we pursue a number of ongoing strategic initiatives relating to streamlining business operations, portfolio simplification, reduction of costs, redeployment of resources, customer insight generation, product development and commercialization, efficient sourcing, and improvement in manufacturing and back-office support, all with a focus on continually improving quality, delivery, cost, growth and innovation.
Non-GAAP Measures
In order to establish period-to-period comparability, we include the non-GAAP measure of core sales in this report. References to the non-GAAP measure of core sales (also referred to as core revenues or sales/revenues from existing businesses) refer to sales calculated according to GAAP, but excluding:
sales from acquired businesses for one year from the acquisition date;
sales from discontinued products; and
the impact of currency translation.
We exclude sales from acquired businesses in order to provide accurate year over year comparisons. Sales from discontinued products includes major brands or major products that we have made the decision to discontinue as part of a portfolio restructuring. Discontinued brands or products consist of those which we (1) are no longer manufacturing, (2) are no longer investing in the research or development of, and (3) expect to discontinue all significant sales of within one year from the decision date to discontinue. The portion of sales attributable to discontinued brands or products is calculated as the net decline of the applicable discontinued brand or product from period-to-period. We exclude sales from discontinued products because discontinued products do not have a continuing contribution to operations and management believes that excluding such items provides investors with a means of evaluating our on-going operations and facilitates comparisons to our peers.
The portion of sales attributable to currency translation is calculated as the difference between:
the period-to-period change in sales; and
the period-to-period change in sales after applying current period foreign exchange rates to the prior year period.
Core sales growth should be considered in addition to, and not as a replacement for or superior to, sales, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. We believe that reporting the non-GAAP financial measure of core sales growth provides useful information to investors by helping identify underlying growth trends in our on-going business and facilitating comparisons of our sales performance with our performance in prior and future periods and to our peers. We also use core sales growth to measure our operating and financial performance. We exclude the effect of currency translation from core sales because currency translation is not under our control, is subject to volatility and can obscure underlying business trends.

Currency exchange rates 0.8 %1.2 %
Core sales growth (non-GAAP)0.8 %0.2 %
Sales growth for the three months ended September 29, 2023 remained flat while core sales growth increased by 0.8% for the comparable period in 2022. An increase in sales volume positively impacted sales growth by 3.7% on a period-over-period basis, partially offset by a decrease in sales price of 2.9%. Sales increased due to growth in Europe, partially offset by a decrease in North America.
Sales and core sales growth for the nine months ended September 29, 2023 increased by 0.7% and 0.2%, respectively, compared to the comparable period in 2022. An increase in sales volume positively impacted sales growth by 1.2% on a period-over-period basis, offset by a decrease in sales price of 1.0%. The increase in sales is primarily due to growth from Europe, partially offset by lower demand from North America, and China.

Gross profit margin57.5 %57.8 %57.5 %58.1 %
Cost of sales for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023 increased as compared to the comparable periods in 2022 primarily due to increased sales and unfavorable product mix, partially offset by the absence of the amortization of the fair value adjustments related to acquired inventory as part of our acquisitions.
Gross profit margin percentages during the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023 decreased compared to the comparable periods in 2022. For the three months ended September 29, 2023, the slight decrease was primarily due to unfavorable sales price and product mix, partially offset by an increase in volume, the absence of the amortization of the fair value adjustments related to acquired inventory as part of our acquisitions, and by period-over-period savings associated with productivity improvements. For the nine months ended September 29, 2023, the decrease was primarily due to unfavorable product mix, unfavorable sales price and higher costs due to inflation, partially offset by an increase in volume, the absence of the amortization of the fair value adjustments related to acquired inventory as part of our acquisitions, and by period-over-period savings associated with productivity improvements.

SG&A expenses as a percentage of sales for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023 decreased as compared to the comparable periods of 2022 primarily due to lower sales and marketing expenses and lower acquisition related costs.
R&D expenses as a percentage of sales for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023, were consistent with the comparable periods in 2022.
OTHER (EXPENSE) INCOME, NET
Other (expense) income, net for the three months ended September 29, 2023 primarily consists of $29.0 million of inducement and other expenses associated with the Notes Exchanges and a loss on equity investments of $3.3 million. Other expense, net for the nine months ended September 29, 2023 consists primarily of $29.0 million of inducement and other expenses associated with the Notes Exchanges, offset by a $3.6 million net gain on equity investments.
INTEREST COSTS AND FINANCING
Interest costs were $15.4 million and $11.6 million for the three months ended September 29, 2023 and September 30, 2022, respectively, and $49.5 million and $23.9 million for the nine months ended September 29, 2023 and September 30, 2022, respectively. The increase in interest costs for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023 as compared to the comparable periods of 2022 was due primarily to higher interest rates on our variable rate term borrowings and increased borrowing during the quarter ended September 29, 2023.

Our effective tax rate from continuing operations of 39.9% and 26.8% for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023, respectively, differed from the comparable periods in 2022 primarily due to the nondeductible nature of the convertible debt inducement expense for U.S. tax purposes, our geographical mix of earnings, and a decrease in certain discrete tax benefits.

On August 16, 2022, the U.S. enacted the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, which, among other things, implemented a 15% minimum tax on book income of certain large corporations, a 1% excise tax on net stock repurchases, and several tax incentives to promote clean energy. Based on our current analysis of the provisions, this legislation did not have a material impact on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of or for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
We assess our liquidity in terms of our ability to generate cash to fund our operating and investing activities. We continue to generate substantial cash from operating activities and believe that our operating cash flow and other sources of liquidity are sufficient to allow us to manage our capital structure on a short-term and long-term basis and continue investing in existing businesses and consummating strategic acquisitions.
Following is an overview of our cash flows and liquidity, which includes the cash flows of the KaVo Treatment Unit and Instrument Business for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Net cash provided by financing activities$115.6 $80.8 

Operating Activities
Cash flows from operating activities can fluctuate significantly from period-to-period due to working capital needs and the timing of payments for income taxes, restructuring activities, pension funding and other items impacting reported cash flows.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $173.7 million during the nine months ended September 29, 2023, as compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $72.4 million for the comparable period of 2022, primarily due to lower overall net cash payments during the nine months ended September 29, 2023.

Investing Activities
Cash flows relating to investing activities consist primarily of cash used for capital expenditures and acquisitions. Capital expenditures are made primarily for increasing capacity, replacing equipment, supporting new product development and improving information technology systems.

Net cash used in investing activities was $49.8 million for the nine months ended September 29, 2023, as compared to net cash used in investing activities of $656.2 million for the comparable period in 2022, primarily due to the prior year period reflecting cash paid with respect to acquisitions, partially offset by the earnout from the sale of the KaVo Treatment Unit and Instruments Business along with proceeds received from settlement of derivatives, offset by the proceeds received related to the sale of an equity investment.

39


Financing Activities and Indebtedness
Cash flows relating to financing activities consist primarily of cash flows associated with debt borrowings and the issuance of common stock.

Net cash provided by finance activities was $115.6 million for the nine months ended September 29, 2023 compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $80.8 million for the comparable period of 2022 is primarily due to higher net borrowings during 2023 partially offset by lower proceeds from stock options as compared to prior year.

For a description of our outstanding debt as of September 29, 2023, refer to Note 13 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

We intend to satisfy any short-term liquidity needs that are not met through operating cash flow and available cash primarily through our revolving credit facility.

Cash and Cash Requirements

As of September 29, 2023, we held $824.2 million of cash and cash equivalents that were held on deposit with financial institutions. Of this amount, $246.8 million was held within the United States and $577.4 million was held outside of the United States. We will continue to have cash requirements to support working capital needs, capital expenditures and acquisitions, pay interest and service debt, pay taxes and any related interest or penalties, fund our restructuring activities as required and support other business needs. We generally intend to use available cash, internally generated funds and our revolving credit facility to meet these cash requirements, but in the event that additional liquidity is required, particularly in connection with acquisitions, we may need to enter into new credit facilities or access the capital markets. We may also access the capital markets from time to time to take advantage of favorable interest rate environments or other market conditions. However, there is no guarantee that we will be able to obtain alternative sources of financing on commercially reasonable terms or at all. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Business” in our 2022 10-K and “Part II, Other information, Item 1A. Risk Factors” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Generally, cash and cash equivalents held in these financial institutions may be withdrawn or redeemed at face value, and therefore minimal credit risk exists with respect to them. Nonetheless, deposits with these financial institutions exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) insurance limits or similar limits in foreign jurisdictions, to the extent such deposits are even insured in such foreign jurisdictions. While we monitor on a systematic basis the cash and cash equivalent balances in the operating accounts and adjust the balances as appropriate, these balances could be impacted if one or more of the financial institutions with which we deposit our funds fails or is subject to other adverse conditions in the financial or credit markets. To date, we have experienced no loss of principal or lack of access to our invested cash or cash equivalents; however, we can provide no assurance that access to our cash and cash equivalents will not be affected if the financial institutions where we hold our cash and cash equivalents fail.

While repatriation of some cash held outside the United States may be restricted by local laws, most of our foreign cash could be repatriated to the United States. Following enactment of the Tax Cut and Jobs Act of 2017 (“TCJA”) and the associated transition tax, in general, repatriation of cash to the United States can be completed with no incremental U.S. tax; however, repatriation of cash could subject us to non-U.S. jurisdictional taxes on distributions. The cash that our non-U.S. subsidiaries hold for indefinite reinvestment is generally used to finance foreign operations and investments, including acquisitions. The income taxes, if any, applicable to such earnings including basis differences in our foreign subsidiaries are not readily determinable.

As of September 29, 2023, we believe that we have sufficient sources of liquidity to satisfy our cash needs over the next 12 months and beyond, including our cash needs in the United States.

There were no material changes to our contractual obligations during the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

There were no material changes to the Company’s off-balance sheet arrangements described in the 2022 10-K that would have a material impact on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Debt Financing Transactions

Credit Facilities

On August 31, 2023, we entered into the Second Amended Credit Agreement, whereby we entered into the 2028 Term Loan for $530.0 million and the 2028 Euro Term Loan for €350.0 million. The Second Amended Credit Agreement also includes a revolving credit facility with an aggregate available borrowing capacity of $750.0 million. The New Senior Credit Facilities mature on August 31, 2028, and are subject to an earlier maturity date of 91 days prior to the maturity date of the 2028 Convertible Notes, if more than $250.0 million of such notes are outstanding at that time.

The proceeds from the Second Amended Credit Agreement were used to repay outstanding indebtedness for the senior Term Loan facility due 2024 and the senior euro Term Loan facility due 2024. Additionally, we paid fees aggregating approximately $5.2 million in connection with the Second Amended Credit Agreement.

Convertible Senior Notes due 2028

On August 10, 2023, we issued the 2028 Convertible Notes due on August 15, 2028, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. The aggregate principal amount, which includes the initial purchasers’ exercise in full of their option to purchase an additional $65.2 million principal amount of the 2028 Convertible Notes, was $500.2 million. The net proceeds from the issuance, after deducting purchasers’ discounts and estimated offering expenses, were $485.9 million. We used a portion of the net proceeds to partially exchange the 2025 Convertible Notes. The 2028 Convertible Notes will accrue interest at a rate of 1.75% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on February 15 and August 15 of each year, beginning on February 14, 2024. The 2028 Convertible Notes have an initial conversion rate of 21.5942 shares of our common stock per $1,000 principal amount, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $46.31 per share of our common stock and is subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of specified events. The 2028 Convertible Notes have customary provisions relating to the occurrence of “Events of Default” (as defined in the Indenture governing the 2028 Convertible Notes).

Notes Exchanges

Concurrently with the offering of the 2028 Convertible Notes, in separate, privately negotiated transactions, we entered into exchange agreements with a limited number of holders of the 2025 Convertible Notes to exchange $401.2 million principal amount of the 2025 Convertible Notes for aggregate consideration, which consisted of approximately $403.0 in cash, including accrued interest, and approximately 8.4 million shares of our common stock. We may engage in additional exchanges, or we may repurchase or induce conversions, of the remaining 2025 Convertible Notes.

Capped Call Transactions

In connection with the offering of the 2025 Convertible Notes, we entered into the Capped Calls with certain counterparties. The Capped Calls have an initial strike price of approximately $21.01 per share, subject to certain adjustments, which corresponds to the initial conversion price of the 2025 Convertible Notes. The Capped Calls have initial cap prices of $23.79 per share, subject to certain adjustments. The Capped Calls are generally intended to reduce or offset the potential dilution from shares of common stock issued upon any conversion with such reduction or offset, as the case may be, subject to a cap based on the cap price. The cost of $20.7 million incurred in connection with the Capped Calls was recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital.

Simultaneously with the Notes Exchanges, we also completed a partial unwind of the Capped Calls resulting in a repurchase of 1.0 million shares of our common stock. The Capped Calls will mitigate dilution for the conversion of the remaining 2025 Convertible Notes up to our common stock price of $23.79. If the remaining 2025 Convertible Notes are converted at a price higher than $23.79 per share, the Capped Calls will no longer mitigate dilution from the conversion of the 2025 Convertible Notes.

For a description of our outstanding debt as of September 29, 2023, refer to Note 13 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

There were no material changes to our critical accounting estimates described in the 2022 10-K that have had a material impact on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

The extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business is highly uncertain and difficult to predict. If actual results are not consistent with management’s estimates and assumptions used for valuation allowances, contingencies, potential impairments, revenue recognition and income taxes, the related account balances may be overstated or understated and a charge or credit to net income may be required.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk appear in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Qualitative and Quantitative Disclosures About Market Risk,” in our 2022 10-K. There were no material changes to this information reported in our 2022 10-K during the quarter ended September 29, 2023.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our President and Chief Executive Officer, and Principal Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act), as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, our President and Chief Executive Officer, and Principal Financial Officer, have concluded that, as of the end of such period, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended September 29, 2023 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

There have been no material changes to legal proceedings from our 2022 10-K. For additional information regarding legal proceedings, refer to “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Legal Proceedings” in our 2022 10-K.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

You should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our 2022 10-K, which could materially affect our business, financial position, or future results of operations. The risks described in our 2022 10-K, are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial position, or future results of operations. The risk factors set forth below update, and should be read together with, the risk factors described in our 2022 10-K.

Risks Related to Our Indebtedness

We have outstanding indebtedness of approximately $1.5 billion, and in the future we may incur additional indebtedness. This indebtedness could adversely affect our businesses and our ability to meet our obligations.
As of September 29, 2023, we had outstanding indebtedness of approximately $1.5 billion, including approximately $0.9 billion under our Second Amended Credit Agreement, $500.2 million under our 2028 Convertible Notes, $116.3 million under our 2025 Convertible Notes (together with the 2028 Convertible Notes, the “Notes”), and had an additional $750 million of borrowing capacity under the revolving credit facility pursuant to the Second Amended Credit Agreement, with the ability to request further increases to the revolving credit facility up to $525 million.

Please refer to Note 13 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. This debt could have important, adverse consequences to us and our security holders, including:

increasing our vulnerability to adverse economic and industry conditions;
limiting our ability to obtain additional financing;
requiring the dedication of a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to service our indebtedness, which will reduce the amount of cash available for other purposes;
limiting our flexibility to plan for, or react to, changes in our businesses and industry;
diluting the interests of our existing stockholders as a result of issuing shares of our common stock upon conversion of the Notes; and
placing us at a possible competitive disadvantage with competitors that are less leveraged than us or have better access to capital.

Our business may not generate sufficient funds, and we may otherwise be unable to maintain sufficient cash reserves, to pay amounts due under our indebtedness, and our cash needs may increase in the future. The Second Amended Credit Agreement contains restrictive covenants that limit our ability to engage in activities that may be in our long-term interest, including for example EBITDA-based leverage and interest coverage ratios. If we breach any of these restrictions and cannot obtain a waiver from the lenders on favorable terms, subject to applicable cure periods, the outstanding indebtedness (and any other indebtedness with cross-default provisions) could be declared immediately due and payable, which would adversely affect our liquidity and financial statements.

The risks described above will increase with the amount of indebtedness we incur, and in the future we may incur significant indebtedness in addition to the indebtedness described above.

43


We may not be able to generate sufficient cash to service all of our indebtedness and may be forced to take other actions to satisfy our obligations under our indebtedness, which may not be successful and may adversely affect our ability to pay dividends (if we pay dividends in the future).

Our ability to make scheduled payments on or refinance our debt obligations depends on our financial condition and operating performance, which are subject to prevailing economic and competitive conditions and to certain financial, business, legislative, regulatory and other factors beyond our control. We may be unable to maintain a level of cash flows from operating activities sufficient to permit us to pay the principal and interest on our indebtedness.

If our cash flows and capital resources are insufficient to fund our debt service obligations, we could face substantial liquidity problems and could be forced to reduce or delay investments and capital expenditures, or to dispose of material assets or operations, alter our dividend policy (if we pay dividends in the future), seek additional debt or equity capital or restructure or refinance our indebtedness. We may not be able to effect any such alternative measures on commercially reasonable terms or at all and, even if successful, those alternative actions may not allow us to meet our scheduled debt service obligations. The instruments that may govern our indebtedness in the future may restrict our ability to dispose of assets and may restrict the use of proceeds from those dispositions. We may not be able to consummate those dispositions or to obtain proceeds in an amount sufficient to meet any debt service obligations when due.

In addition, we conduct our operations through our subsidiaries. Accordingly, repayment of our indebtedness will depend on the generation of cash flow by our subsidiaries, including certain international subsidiaries, and their ability to make such cash available to us, by dividend, debt repayment or otherwise. Our subsidiaries may not have any obligation to pay amounts due on our indebtedness or to make funds available for that purpose. Our subsidiaries may not be able to, or may not be permitted to, make adequate distributions to enable us to make payments in respect of our indebtedness. Each subsidiary is a distinct legal entity and, under certain circumstances, legal, tax and contractual restrictions may limit our ability to obtain cash from our subsidiaries. In the event that we do not receive distributions from our subsidiaries, we may be unable to make required principal and interest payments on our indebtedness.

Our inability to generate sufficient cash flows to satisfy our debt obligations, or to refinance our indebtedness on commercially reasonable terms or at all, may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations and our ability to satisfy our obligations under our indebtedness or pay dividends on our common stock if we pay dividends in the future.

We may be unable to raise the funds necessary to repurchase the Notes for cash following a fundamental change, or to pay any cash amounts due upon conversion, and our other indebtedness may limit our ability to repurchase the Notes or pay cash upon their conversion.
Holders of the Notes may require us to repurchase their Notes following a fundamental change at a cash repurchase price generally equal to the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. In addition, upon conversion, we will satisfy part or all of our conversion obligation in cash. We may not have enough available cash or be able to obtain financing at the time we are required to repurchase the Notes or pay the cash amounts due upon conversion. In addition, applicable law, regulatory authorities and the agreements governing our other indebtedness may restrict our ability to repurchase the Notes or pay the cash amounts due upon conversion. Our failure to repurchase the Notes or to pay the cash amounts due upon conversion when required will constitute a default under the indentures governing the 2028 Convertible Notes and the 2025 Convertible Notes between us and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee, dated as of August 10, 2023 and May 21, 2020, respectively. A default under the 2028 Convertible Notes Indenture, the 2025 Convertible Notes Indenture (together, the “Indentures”), or the fundamental change itself could also lead to a default under agreements governing our other indebtedness, which may result in that other indebtedness becoming immediately payable in full. We may not have sufficient funds to satisfy all amounts due under the other indebtedness and the Notes.

44


The conditional conversion feature of the Notes, if triggered, may adversely affect our financial condition and operating results.

In the event the conditional conversion feature of the Notes is triggered, holders of Notes will be entitled to convert the Notes at any time during specified periods at their option. We made an irrevocable election to satisfy the principal amounts of Notes outstanding upon conversion with cash. If one or more holders elect to convert their Notes, we would be required to settle a portion or all of our conversion obligation through the payment of cash, which could adversely affect our liquidity. In addition, even if holders do not elect to convert their Notes, we could be required under applicable accounting rules to reclassify all or a portion of the outstanding principal of the Notes as a current rather than long-term liability, which would result in a material reduction of our net working capital. As of September 29, 2023, none of the conditions allowing the Note holders to convert the 2028 Convertible Notes was satisfied. As a result, as of September 29, 2023, the 2028 Convertible Notes are classified as a non-current liability. As of September 29, 2023, one of the conditions allowing the Note holders to convert the 2025 Convertible Notes was satisfied. As a result, as of September 29, 2023, the 2025 Convertible Notes are classified as a current liability. The conversion conditions are tested quarterly.

The existing capped call transactions we entered into in connection with the 2025 Notes may affect the value of the Notes and our common stock.

In connection with the sale of the 2025 Convertible Notes, we entered into capped call transactions (the “Capped Calls”) with the initial purchasers of the 2025 Convertible Notes, their respective affiliates and other financial institutions (the “option counterparties”). The Capped Calls are expected generally to reduce the potential dilution upon any conversion of the 2025 Convertible Notes and/or offset any cash payments we are required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted 2025 Convertible Notes, as the case may be, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap.

In connection with establishing their hedges of the Capped Calls, the option counterparties or their affiliates entered into various derivative transactions with respect to our common stock. These parties may modify their hedge positions in the future by entering into or unwinding various derivatives with respect to our common stock and/or purchasing or selling our common stock or other securities of ours in secondary market transactions prior to the maturity of the Convertible 2025 Notes (and are likely to do so during any observation period related to a conversion of the Convertible 2025 Notes). This activity could cause or avoid an increase or a decrease in the market price of our common stock or the Notes.

We are subject to counterparty risk with respect to the Capped Calls.

The option counterparties are financial institutions, and we will be subject to the risk that any or all of them might default under the Capped Calls. Our exposure to the credit risk of the option counterparties will not be secured by any collateral. Past global economic conditions have resulted in the actual or perceived failure or financial difficulties of many financial institutions. If an option counterparty becomes subject to insolvency proceedings, we will become an unsecured creditor in those proceedings with a claim equal to our exposure at that time under the Capped Calls with such option counterparty. Our exposure will depend on many factors but, generally, an increase in our exposure will be correlated to an increase in the market price and in the volatility of our common stock. In addition, upon a default by an option counterparty, we may suffer adverse tax consequences and more dilution than we currently anticipate with respect to our common stock. We can provide no assurances as to the financial stability or viability of the option counterparties.

Our variable rate indebtedness exposes us to interest rate volatility, which could cause our debt service obligations to increase significantly.

Borrowings under certain of our facilities, including our Second Amended Credit Agreement, are made at variable rates of interest and expose us to interest rate volatility. Interest rates increased during 2022 and 2023. If interest rates continue to increase, our debt service obligations on certain of our variable rate indebtedness will increase even though the amount borrowed remains the same, and our net income and cash flows, including cash available for servicing our indebtedness, will correspondingly decrease. In addition, we reference the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") as the primary benchmark rate for our variable rate indebtedness, in lieu of the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR"). SOFR is a relatively new reference rate and with a limited history, and changes in SOFR have, on occasion, been more volatile than changes in other benchmark or market rates. As a result, the amount of interest we may pay on our variable rate indebtedness is difficult to predict.


45


Risks Related to Ownership of Our Stock

The price of our common stock may continue to be volatile, which could lead to securities litigation brought against us or cause investors to lose the value of their investment.

We have a limited trading history and there may be wide fluctuations in the market value of our common stock as a result of many factors. From our IPO through September 29, 2023, the sales price of our common stock as reported by the NYSE has ranged from a low sales price of $10.08 on March 19, 2020 to a high sales price of $52.03 on March 29, 2022. Factors that may cause the market price of our common stock to fluctuate, some of which may be beyond our control, include:

our quarterly or annual earnings, or those of other companies in our industry;
actual or anticipated fluctuations in our operating results;
changes in earnings estimated by securities analysts or our ability to meet those estimates;
the operating and stock price performance of other comparable companies;
changes to the regulatory and legal environment in which we operate;
macroeconomic conditions and the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, inflation and rising interest rates
and global conflicts, including the Russia-Ukraine war and the Israel-Hamas war;
unusual events such as significant acquisitions by us and our competitors, divestitures, litigation, regulatory actions
and other factors, including factors unrelated to our operating performance;
overall market fluctuations and domestic and worldwide economic conditions; and
other factors described in these “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in our 2022 10-K and in this Quarterly Report.

Stock markets in general have experienced volatility recently that has often been unrelated to the operating performance of a particular company. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the trading price of our common stock. In the past, periods of volatility in the overall market and the market price of a company’s securities have often been followed by securities litigation brought against these companies. Such litigation, if instituted against us, could result in substantial costs and a diversion of our management’s attention and resources. In addition, as a result of this volatility, investors may not be able to sell their common stock at or above the purchase price.

Certain provisions in our second amended and restated certificate of incorporation, our third amended and restated bylaws, the Indentures governing the Notes, and of Delaware law, may prevent or delay an acquisition of us, which could decrease the trading price of our common stock.

Our second amended and restated certificate of incorporation and third amended and restated bylaws contain, and Delaware law contains, provisions that are intended to deter coercive takeover practices and inadequate takeover bids and to encourage prospective acquirers to negotiate with our board of directors rather than to attempt an unsolicited takeover not approved by our board of directors. These provisions include, among others:

the inability of our stockholders to call a special meeting;
the inability of our stockholders to act by written consent;
rules regarding how stockholders may present proposals or nominate directors for election at stockholder meetings;
the right of our board of directors to issue preferred stock without stockholder approval;
the division of our board of directors into three classes of directors, with each class serving a staggered three-year
term, subject to a phased-in declassification whereby Class III directors were elected to a one-year term at the 2022 annual meeting, Class I directors were elected to a one-year term at the 2023 annual meeting and Class II directors will be elected to a one-year term at the 2024 annual meeting such that effective as of the 2024 annual meeting, our board of directors will be fully declassified, and until the full declassification of the Board as of the date of the 2024 annual meeting, this classified board provision could have the effect of making the replacement of incumbent directors more time consuming and difficult;
prior to our board of directors being fully declassified, stockholders may only remove directors with cause; and
the ability of our directors, and not stockholders, to fill vacancies (including those resulting from an enlargement of
our board of directors) on our board of directors.

46


Additionally, certain provisions in the Notes and the Indentures governing the Notes could make a third party attempt to acquire us more difficult or expensive. For example, if a takeover constitutes a fundamental change, then holders of the Notes will have the right to require us to repurchase their Notes for cash. In addition, if a takeover constitutes a make-whole fundamental change, then we may be required to temporarily increase the conversion rate. In either case, and in other cases, our obligations under the Notes and the Indentures could increase the cost of acquiring us or otherwise discourage a third party from acquiring us or removing incumbent management, including in a transaction that holders of our securities may view as favorable.

In addition, because we have not chosen to be exempt from Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”), this provision could also delay or prevent a change of control that you may favor. Section 203 provides that, subject to limited exceptions, persons that acquire, or are affiliated with a person that acquires, more than 15% of the outstanding voting stock of a Delaware corporation (an “interested stockholder”) shall not engage in any business combination with that corporation, including by merger, consolidation or acquisitions of additional shares, for a three-year period following the date on which the person became an interested stockholder, unless (i) prior to such time, the board of directors of such corporation approved either the business combination or the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder; (ii) upon consummation of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of the voting stock of such corporation at the time the transaction commenced (excluding for purposes of determining the voting stock outstanding (but not the outstanding voting stock owned by the interested stockholder) the voting stock owned by directors who are also officers or held in employee benefit plans in which the employees do not have a confidential right to tender or vote stock held by the plan); or (iii) on or subsequent to such time the business combination is approved by the board of directors of such corporation and authorized at a meeting of stockholders by the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the outstanding voting stock of such corporation not owned by the interested stockholder.

We believe these provisions will protect our stockholders from coercive or otherwise unfair takeover tactics by requiring potential acquirers to negotiate with our board of directors and by providing our board of directors with more time to assess any acquisition proposal. These provisions are not intended to make us immune from takeovers. However, these provisions will apply even if the offer may be considered beneficial by some stockholders and could delay or prevent an acquisition that our board of directors determines is in the best interests of us and our stockholders. These provisions may also prevent or discourage attempts to remove and replace incumbent directors.

Our second amended and restated certificate of incorporation designates the state courts in the State of Delaware or, if no state court located within the State of Delaware has jurisdiction, the federal court for the District of Delaware, as the sole and exclusive forum for certain types of actions and proceedings that may be initiated by our stockholders, which could discourage lawsuits against us and our directors, officers, employees and stockholders.

Our second amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that unless our board of directors otherwise determines, the state courts in the State of Delaware or, if no state court located within the State of Delaware has jurisdiction, the federal court for the District of Delaware, will be the sole and exclusive forum for any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of us, any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any of our directors, officers, employees or stockholders to us or our stockholders, any action asserting a claim arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL or our second amended and restated certificate of incorporation or third amended and restated bylaws, or any action asserting a claim governed by the internal affairs doctrine. This provision would not apply to claims brought to enforce a duty or liability created by the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended or any other claim for which the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction.

In addition, our third amended and restated bylaws provide that the federal district courts of the U.S. will be the exclusive forum for resolving any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum.

These exclusive forum provisions may limit the ability of our stockholders to bring a claim in a judicial forum that such stockholders find favorable for disputes with us or our directors or officers, which may discourage such lawsuits against us and our directors, officers, employees and stockholders.

47


Conversion of the Notes may dilute the ownership interest of our stockholders or may otherwise depress the prices of our common stock.

The conversion of some or all of the Notes may dilute the ownership interests of our stockholders. Upon conversion of the Notes, we have the option to pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of our common stock, or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock to satisfy any Notes conversion value in excess of the principal amount. If we elect to settle the value in excess of the principal amount in shares of our common stock or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock, any sales in the public market of our common stock issuable upon such conversion could adversely affect prevailing market prices of our common stock. In addition, the existence of the Notes may encourage short selling by market participants because the conversion of the Notes could be used to satisfy short positions, or anticipated conversion of the Notes into shares of our common stock could depress the price of our common stock.

The issuance or sale of shares of our common stock, or rights to acquire shares of our common stock, could depress the trading price of our common stock and the Notes.

We may conduct future offerings of our common stock, preferred stock or other securities that are convertible into or exercisable for our common stock to finance our operations or fund acquisitions, or for other purposes. In addition, we have reserved 20,656,197 shares of common stock for the exercise of stock options or vesting of restricted stock units. The Indentures for the Notes do not restrict our ability to issue additional equity securities in the future. If we issue additional shares of our common stock or rights to acquire shares of our common stock, if any of our existing stockholders sells a substantial amount of our common stock, or if the market perceives that such issuances or sales may occur, then the trading price of our common stock, and, accordingly, the Notes may significantly decline. In addition, our issuance of additional shares of common stock will dilute the ownership interests of our existing common stockholders, including holders of Notes who have received shares of our common stock upon conversion of their Notes.
