NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
Note 1: | Basis of Presentation |
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S.") and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and reflect all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the consolidated results for the interim periods presented. Results for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K of ICU Medical, Inc., ("ICU") a Delaware corporation, filed with the SEC for the year ended December 31, 2019.
We are engaged in the development, manufacturing and sale of innovative medical products used in vascular therapy and critical care applications. We sell the majority of our products through our direct sales force and through independent distributors throughout the U.S. and internationally. Additionally, we sell our products on an original equipment manufacturer basis to other medical device manufacturers. All subsidiaries are wholly owned and are included in the condensed consolidated financial statements. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year financial statements to conform to classifications used in the current year. These reclassifications had no impact on net income, stockholders' equity or cash flows as previously reported. We reclassified the usage of spare parts to separately state the amounts as an adjustment to reconcile net income to net cash provided by (used in) operating activities. The usage of spare parts was reported in the "Other" line item in the previously reported operating cash flows.
Note 2: New Accounting Pronouncements
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software (Topic 350): Customer's Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract. The amendments in this update align the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software and hosting arrangements that include an internal use software license. Costs to develop or obtain internal-use software that cannot be capitalized under subtopic 350-40, such as training costs and certain data conversion costs, also cannot be capitalized for a hosting arrangement that is a service contract. Therefore, an entity in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract determines which project stage (that is, preliminary project stage, application development stage, or post-implementation stage) an implementation activity relates to. Costs for implementation activities in the application development stage are capitalized depending on the nature of the costs, while costs incurred during the preliminary project and post-implementation stages are expensed as the activities are performed. The amendments in this update require the entity to expense the capitalized implementation costs of a hosting arrangement that is a service contract over the term of the hosting arrangement. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The amendments in this update should be applied either retrospectively or prospectively to all implementation costs incurred after the date of adoption. We adopted this ASU effective January 1, 2020. This ASU did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements or related disclosures.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. The amendments in this update modify the disclosure requirements in Topic 820. The amendments remove from disclosure: the amount of and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy; the policy for timing of transfers between levels; and the valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements. The amendments also made the following disclosure modifications: for investments in certain entities that calculate net asset value, an entity is required to disclose the timing of liquidation of an investee’s assets and the date when restrictions from redemption might lapse only if the investee has communicated the timing to the entity or announced the timing publicly; and the amendments clarify that the measurement uncertainty disclosure is to communicate information about the uncertainty in measurement as of the reporting date. The amendments also added the following disclosure requirements: the changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period; and the range and weighted average of significant

ICU MEDICAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. For certain unobservable inputs, an entity may disclose other quantitative information (such as the median or arithmetic average) in lieu of the weighted average if the entity determines that other quantitative information would be a more reasonable and rational method to reflect the distribution of unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. The amendments in ASU 2018-02 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. We adopted this ASU effective January 1, 2020. This ASU did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements or related disclosures.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This update amends the FASB's guidance on the impairment of financial instruments by requiring timelier recording of credit losses on loans and other financial instruments. The ASU adds an impairment model that is based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. The ASU also amends the accounting for credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities and purchased financial assets with credit deterioration. In April 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-04 - Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses and in May 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-05, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses to Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Targeted Transition Relief. ASU 2019-04 clarifies and corrects certain areas of the Codification and ASU 2019-05 provides entities with an option to irrevocably elect the fair value option in Subtopic 825-10, Financial Instruments—Overall, applied on an instrument-by-instrument basis for eligible instruments, upon adoption of Topic 326. The amendments in these updates will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted as of the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. The updated guidance requires a modified retrospective adoption. We adopted this ASU effective January 1, 2020. This ASU did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements or related disclosures.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) - Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. The amendments in this update provide optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden for reference rate reform on financial reporting. Due to concerns about structural risks of interbank offered rates and, particularly, the risk of cessation of the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR"), regulators around the world have undertaken reference rate reform initiatives to identify alternative reference rates that are more observable or transaction based and less susceptible to manipulation. The amendments in this update apply only to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued as a result of reference rate reform. Optional expedients may be applied to contracts that are modified as a result of the reference rate reform. Modifications of contracts within the scope of Topic 470, Debt, should be accounted for by prospectively adjusting the effective interest rate. Modifications of contracts within the scope of ASC 842, Leases, should be accounted for as a continuation of the existing contracts with no reassessments of the lease classification and the discount rate (incremental borrowing rate). Exceptions to Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, results in not having a dedesignation of a hedging relationship if certain criteria are met. The amendments in this ASU are effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. We are currently reviewing the impact of this ASU on our contracts.
Note 3: Restructuring, Strategic Transaction and Integration
Restructuring, strategic transaction and integration expenses were $12.3 million and $24.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
Restructuring
During the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, restructuring charges were $7.2 million and $0.8 million, respectively. Restructuring charges for the three months ended March 31, 2020, were primarily related to severance and costs related to office and other facility closures.
During the year ended December 31, 2015, we incurred restructuring charges related to an agreement with Dr. Lopez, a member of our Board of Directors and a former employee in our research and development department, pursuant to which we bought out Dr. Lopez's right to employment under his then-existing employment agreement. The buy-out, including payroll taxes, is paid in equal monthly installments until December 2020.
The following table summarizes the details of changes in our restructuring-related accrual for the period ended March 31, 2020 (in thousands):

Strategic transaction and integration expenses
We incurred and expensed $5.1 million and $23.6 million in strategic transaction and integration expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The strategic transaction and integration expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, were primarily related to the integration of the Hospira Infusion Systems ("HIS") business acquired in 2017 from Pfizer. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, the expenses included the migration of IT systems at our Austin facility. The strategic transaction and integration expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2019, were primarily related to our final Pfizer separation costs and clean-up, which included a $12.7 million non-cash write-off of related assets.
Note 4: Revenue
Our primary product lines are Infusion Consumables, Infusion Systems, IV Solutions and Critical Care. The vast majority of our sales of these products are made on a stand-alone basis to hospitals and distributors. Revenue is typically recognized upon transfer of control of the products, which we deem to be at point of shipment.
Payment is typically due in full within 30 days of delivery or the start of the contract term. Revenue is recorded in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. We offer certain volume-based rebates to our distribution customers, which we record as variable consideration when calculating the transaction price. Rebates are offered on both a fixed and tiered/variable basis. In both cases, we use information available at the time and our historical experience with each customer to estimate the most likely rebate amount. We also provide chargebacks to distributors that sell to end-customers at prices determined under a contract between us and the end-customer. We use information available at the time and our historical experience to estimate and record provisions for chargebacks.
We also warrant products against defects and have a policy permitting the return of defective products, for which we accrue and expense at the time of sale using information available at that time and our historical experience. We also provide for extended service-type warranties, which we consider to be separate performance obligations. We allocate a portion of the transaction price to the extended service-type warranty based on its estimated relative selling price, and recognize revenue over the period the warranty service is provided.

Note 5: Leases
Leases
We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Our operating lease assets are separately stated in operating lease right-of-use ("ROU") assets and our financing lease assets are included in other assets on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Our lease liabilities are included in accrued liabilities, and other long-term liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. We have elected not to recognize an ROU asset and lease liability for leases with terms of twelve months or less.
Lease ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. Most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, therefore we use our incremental borrowing rate, which is the rate incurred to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term based on the information available at commencement date. Our lease ROU assets exclude lease incentives and initial direct costs incurred. Our lease terms include options to extend when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. All of our operating leases have stated lease payments, which may include fixed rental increases. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Our leases are for corporate offices, sales and support offices, a distribution facility, device service centers and certain equipment. Our leases have original lease terms of one year to fifteen years, some of which include options to extend the leases for up to an additional five years. For all of our leases, we do not include optional periods of extension in our current lease terms for the exercise of options to extend is not reasonably certain.

Note 6: Net Income Per Share
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period plus dilutive securities. Dilutive securities include outstanding common stock options and unvested restricted stock units, less the number of shares that could have been purchased with the proceeds from the exercise of the options, using the treasury stock method. Options and restricted stock units that are anti-dilutive are not included in the treasury stock method calculation. There were 15,333 and 9,998 anti-dilutive securities for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Note 7: Derivatives and Hedging Activities
Hedge Accounting and Hedging Program
The purpose of our hedging program is to manage the foreign currency exchange rate risk on forecasted expenses denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the operating unit. We do not issue derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.
To receive hedge accounting treatment, all hedging relationships are formally documented at the inception of the hedge, and the hedges must be highly effective in offsetting changes to future cash flows on hedged transactions. The par forward contract is designated and qualifies as a cash flow hedge. Our derivative instruments are recorded at fair value on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and are classified based on the instrument's maturity date. We record changes in the intrinsic value of the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instrument as a component of Other Comprehensive Income and we reclassify that gain or loss into earnings in the same line item associated with the forecasted transaction and in the same period during which the hedged transaction affects earnings.
In March 2020, we entered into a one-year cross-currency par forward contract that extends our current hedge of a portion of our Mexico forecasted expenses denominated in Pesos ("MXN"). The total notional amount of this outstanding derivative as of March 31, 2020 was approximately 473.2 million MXN. The term of the one-year contract is November 3, 2020 to December 1, 2021. The derivative instrument matures in equal monthly amounts at a fixed forward rate of 24.26 MXN/USD.
In November 2018, we entered into a one-year cross-currency par forward contract that hedges of a portion of our Mexico forecasted expenses denominated in MXN. The total notional amount of this outstanding derivative as of March 31, 2020 was approximately 265.3 million MXN. The term of the one-year hedge is November 1, 2019 to November 3, 2020. The derivative instrument matures in equal monthly amounts at a fixed forward rate of 22.109 MXN/USD.

Note 8: Fair Value Measurement
Fair value is the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
• | Level 1: quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; |
• | Level 2: inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; or |
16

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
• | Level 3: unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair values of the assets or liabilities. |
Earn-out Liability
In 2017, we recognized an earn-out liability upon the acquisition of HIS from Pfizer. Pfizer was entitled up to $225 million in cash if certain performance targets for the combined company for the three years ending December 31, 2019 were achieved. The initial fair value of the earn-out was determined by employing a Monte Carlo simulation in a risk neutral framework. The underlying simulated variable was adjusted EBITDA. The adjusted EBITDA volatility estimate was based on a study of historical asset volatility for a set of comparable public companies. The model included other assumptions including the market price of risk, which was calculated as the weighted average cost of capital ("WACC") less the long term risk free rate. The initial value assigned to the contingent consideration was a result of forecasted product demand of our HIS business. At each reporting date subsequent to the acquisition we remeasured the earn-out using the same methodology above and recognized any changes in value. As of December 31, 2019, it was determined that we did not meet the necessary performance targets that would require payout of any of the HIS earn-out liability.
In the fourth quarter of 2019, we recognized an earn-out liability related to the acquisition of Pursuit Vascular, Inc. ("Pursuit"). Pursuit's former equity holders are potentially entitled up to $50.0 million in additional cash consideration contingent upon the achievement of certain sales and gross profit targets for specific customers. The earn-out paid will be calculated as a percentage of gross profit achieved during the earn-out period against a pre-determined target gross profit, not to exceed $50.0 million. We used a Monte Carlo simulation model to determine the fair value of the earn-out liability. The Monte Carlo simulation model utilizes multiple input variables to determine the value of the earn-out liability including historical volatility, a risk free interest rate, counter party credit risk and projected future gross profit, see below simulation input table related to Pursuit. The historical volatility was based on the median of ICU and a certain peer group. The risk-free interest rate is equal to the yield, as of the valuation date, of the zero-coupon U.S. Treasury bill that is commensurate with the term of the earn-out. The counter party credit risk is based on a synthetic credit rating of B1. If the probabilities in the model significantly change from what we initially and subsequently anticipate, the change could have a significant impact on our financial statements in the period recognized. Our contingent earn-out liability is separately stated in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.
The following tables provide a reconciliation of the Level 3 earn-out liabilities measured at estimated fair value (in thousands):

Investments and Foreign Currency Contracts
The fair value of our investments is estimated using observable market-based inputs such as quoted prices, interest rates and yield curves or Level 2 inputs, which consisted of corporate bonds.
The fair value of our Level 2 forward currency contracts are estimated using observable market inputs such as known notional value amounts, spot and forward exchange rates. These inputs relate to liquid, heavily traded currencies with active markets which are available for the full term of the derivative.

Note 9: Investment Securities
Our investment securities currently consist of short-term corporate bonds. Our investment securities are considered available-for-sale and are “investment grade” and carried at fair value. Available-for-sale securities are recorded at fair value, and unrealized holding gains and losses are recorded, net of tax, as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income. Unrealized losses on available-for-sale securities are charged against net earnings when a decline in fair value is determined to be other than temporary. Our management reviews several factors to determine whether a loss is other than temporary, such as the length and extent of the fair value decline, the financial condition and near term prospects of the issuer, and for equity investments, our intent and ability to hold the security for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value. The amortized cost of the debt securities are adjusted for the amortization of premiums computed under the effective interest method. Such amortization is included in investment income in other income on our condensed consolidated statements of operations. There have been no realized gains or losses on their disposal. Realized gains and losses are accounted for on the specific identification method. The scheduled maturities of the debt securities are between 2020 and 2021. All short-term investment securities are callable within one year.

Note 15: Income Taxes
Income taxes were accrued at an estimated effective tax rate of 17% and 7% for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2020 differs from the federal statutory rate of 21% principally because of the effect of the mix of U.S. and foreign incomes, state income taxes, global intangible low-taxed income ("GILTI"), foreign-derived intangible income ("FDII") and tax credits.
The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2019 differs from the federal statutory rate of 21% principally because of the effect of the mix of U.S. and foreign incomes, state income taxes, GILTI and tax credits. The effective tax rate during the three months ended March 31, 2019 included a discrete tax benefit of $5.6 million related to the excess tax benefits recognized on stock option exercises and the vesting of restricted stock units during the period. In addition, the effective tax rate during the three months ended March 31, 2019 included a discrete tax provision of $1.8 million as a result of a revaluation of the contingent consideration.

Five-year Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility ("Credit Facility")
On November 8, 2017, we entered into a Credit Facility with various lenders for $150.0 million, with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. as the administrative agent, swingline lender and issuing lender. During March 2020, as a result of market uncertainty caused by the novel coronavirus ("COVID-19"), we preemptively borrowed $150.0 million on our Credit Facility as a conservative measure to manage any potential short-term liquidity risk. We plan to hold the proceeds of these borrowings as cash while the COVID-19 situation and market conditions remain uncertain.
As of March 31, 2020, we had $150.0 million in borrowings and no availability under the Credit Facility. Principal payments on the revolving Credit Facility are made at our discretion with the unpaid amount due at maturity. The Credit Facility matures on November 8, 2022. Interest on borrowings under the Credit Facility, at our option, is based on the Base Rate plus applicable margin or the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") plus applicable margin, see further details in Part II, Item 8, of our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Debt Covenants
The Credit Facility contains certain financial covenants pertaining to Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage and Consolidated Total Leverage Ratios. In addition, the Credit Facility has restrictions pertaining to limitations on debt, liens, negative pledges, loans, advances, acquisitions, other investments, dividends, distributions, redemptions, repurchases of equity interests, fundamental changes and asset sales and other dispositions, prepayments, redemptions and purchases of subordinated debt and other junior debt, transactions with affiliates, dividend and payment restrictions affecting subsidiaries, changes in line of business, fiscal year and accounting practices and amendment of organizational documents and junior debt documents.
The Consolidated Leverage Ratio is defined as the ratio of Consolidated Total Funded Indebtedness on such date, to Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, as defined under the Credit Facility Agreement, for the most recently completed four fiscal quarters. The maximum Consolidated Leverage Ratio is not more than 3.00 to 1.00.
The Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is defined as the ratio of: (a) Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA less the sum of (i) capital expenditures, (ii) federal, state, local and foreign income taxes paid in cash and (iii) cash restricted payments made after the closing date, to (b) Consolidated Fixed Charges for the most recently completed four fiscal quarters, calculated on a pro forma basis. The minimum Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is 2.00 to 1.00.
We were in compliance with all financial covenants as of March 31, 2020.

Note 17: Stockholders' Equity
Treasury Stock
In August 2019, our Board of Directors approved a new share purchase plan to purchase up to $100.0 million of our common stock. This plan replaced our existing plan and has no expiration date. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we did not purchase any shares of our common stock under our stock purchase plans. As of March 31, 2020, all of the $100.0 million available for purchase was remaining under the plan. We are currently limited on share purchases in accordance with the terms and conditions of our Credit Facility (see Note 16: Long-Term Obligations).
For the three months ended March 31, 2020, we withheld 63,511 shares of our common stock from employee vested restricted stock units in consideration for $12.2 million in payments made on the employee's behalf for their minimum statutory income tax withholding obligations. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, we withheld 77,642 shares of our common stock from employee vested restricted stock units in consideration for $18.2 million in payments made on the employee's behalf for their minimum statutory income tax withholding obligations. Treasury stock is used to issue shares for stock option exercises, restricted stock grants and employee stock purchase plan stock purchases.

Note 18: Commitments and Contingencies
Legal Proceedings
Beginning in November 2016, purported class actions were filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois against Pfizer, Inc. subsidiaries, Hospira, Inc., Hospira Worldwide, Inc. and certain other defendants relating to the intravenous saline solutions part of the HIS business. Plaintiffs seek to represent classes consisting of all persons and entities in the U.S. who directly purchased intravenous saline solution sold by any of the defendants from January 1, 2013 until the time the defendants’ allegedly unlawful conduct ceases. Plaintiffs allege that U.S. manufacturer defendants conspired together to restrict output and artificially fix, raise, maintain and/or stabilize the prices of intravenous saline solution sold throughout the U.S. in violation of federal antitrust laws. Plaintiffs seek treble damages (for themselves and on behalf of the putative classes) and an injunction against defendants for alleged price overcharges for intravenous saline solution in the U.S. since January 1, 2013. On July 5, 2018, the District Court granted defendants’ motion to dismiss the operative complaint for failing to state a
25

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
valid antitrust claim, but allowed the plaintiffs to file a second amended complaint. On September 6, 2018, plaintiffs filed a second amended complaint adding new allegations in support of their conspiracy claims and adding ICU as a defendant. All defendants filed a motion to dismiss this second amended complaint and on April 3, 2020, the District Court granted Defendants’ motion to dismiss the second amended complaint. The District Court concluded that it would be futile to permit plaintiffs to amend their complaint again, and dismissed the case with prejudice. The plaintiffs may file an appeal or other type of challenge to the District Court’s order. On February 3, 2017, we completed the acquisition of the HIS business from Pfizer. This litigation is the subject of a claim for indemnification against us by Pfizer and a cross-claim for indemnification against Pfizer by us under the HIS stock and asset purchase agreement.
From time to time, we are involved in various legal proceedings, most of which are routine litigation, in the normal course of business. Our management does not believe that the resolution of the unsettled legal proceedings that we are involved with will have a material adverse impact on our financial position or results of operations.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
In the normal course of business, we have agreed to indemnify our officers and directors to the maximum extent permitted under Delaware law and to indemnify customers as to certain intellectual property matters or other matters related to sales of our products. There is no maximum limit on the indemnification that may be required under these agreements. Although we can provide no assurances, we have never incurred, nor do we expect to incur, any material liability for indemnification.
Contingencies
During November 2019, we acquired Pursuit. Total consideration for the acquisition includes a potential contractual earn-out of up to $50.0 million, to be paid to former Pursuit equity holders, calculated based upon the achievement of certain performance targets during the earn-out period (see Note 8: Fair Value Measurement).
Commitments
We have non-cancellable operating lease agreements where we are contractually obligated to pay certain lease payment amounts (see Note 5: Leases).
Note 19: Collaborative and Other Arrangements
On February 3, 2017, we entered into two Manufacturing and Supply Agreements ("MSAs"), (i) whereby Pfizer will manufacture and supply us with certain agreed upon products for an initial five-year term with a one-time two-year option to extend and (ii) whereby we will manufacture and supply Pfizer certain agreed upon products for a term of five or ten years depending on the product, also with a one-time two-year option to extend. The MSAs provide each party with mutually beneficial interests and both of the MSAs are to be jointly managed by both Pfizer and ICU. The initial supply price, which will be annually updated, is in full consideration for all costs associated with the manufacture, documentation, packaging and certification of the products.
Note 20: Subsequent Events
In late 2019, a novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) was first reported in Wuhan, China, and on March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization characterized COVID-19 as a global pandemic. The spread of COVID-19 around the world in 2020 has caused significant volatility in U.S. and international markets. The ultimate disruption caused by the outbreak is uncertain; however, it may result in a material adverse impact on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Possible impact may include, but is not limited to: lost revenue or additional costs associated with a disruption to our production or distribution facilities; customers may experience financial difficulties and may be unable to pay within payment terms for the products they purchased; reduced revenue due to restricted access to healthcare customers; lower revenue and income due to foreign currency fluctuations; lower travel and entertainment costs due to travel restrictions; and lower income due to a delay in cost savings projects. While our operations have been designated as essential activities by certain state and city jurisdictions, COVID-19 is likely to negatively impact our operating results and financial position, the extent and duration cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following information should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes in this Form 10-Q, as well as the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.
When used in this report, the terms “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to ICU Medical, Inc ("ICU") and its subsidiaries included in our condensed consolidated financial statements unless context requires otherwise.
Business Overview
We are one of the world's leading pure-play infusion therapy companies with global operations and a wide-ranging product portfolio that includes IV solutions, IV smart pumps with pain management and safety software technology, dedicated and non-dedicated IV sets and needlefree connectors designed to help meet clinical, safety and workflow goals. In addition, we manufacture automated pharmacy IV compounding systems with workflow technology, closed systems transfer devices for preparing and administering hazardous IV drugs, and cardiac monitoring systems for critically ill patients.
Our primary customers are acute care hospitals, wholesalers, ambulatory clinics and alternate site facilities, such as clinics, home health care providers and long-term care facilities. We sell our products in more than 90 countries throughout the world.
We categorize our products into four main product lines: Infusion Consumables, Infusion Systems, IV Solutions and Critical Care. We have presented our financial results in accordance with these product lines, with our primary products in each line listed below.
Operations Overview
COVID-19 Update
In late 2019, a novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) was first reported in Wuhan, China, and on March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization characterized COVID-19 as a global pandemic. The outbreak has spread globally and has led governments and other authorities around the world, including federal, state and local authorities in the United States and elsewhere, to impose measures intended to control its spread, including restrictions on freedom of movement and business operations such as travel restrictions, border closings, business closures, quarantines and shelter-in-place orders. Additionally, the COVID-19 pandemic and the measures taken to limit its spread have negatively impacted the economy across many industries. As such, COVID-19 pandemic may pose significant risks to our business. We operate globally and the COVID-19 pandemic and its adverse effects have impacted most of the locations where we, our customers and our suppliers conduct business and as a result, during the first quarter of 2020, we have experienced some disruption to our operations, most notably due to self-imposed travel restrictions.
As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have temporarily closed our non-essential offices and facilities, including our corporate headquarters. With a large number of employees now working remotely there is a potential loss of productivity, which could negatively impact our future results.
Our manufacturing, distribution, and pump service facilities are operating under our business continuity plan due to the need for our critical healthcare products, however, we have taken certain precautionary measures including the following to maximize the safety of our employees and to mitigate disruption to our operations:
• | implemented physical distancing measures; |
• | enhanced hygiene protocols and increased frequency of cleaning procedures; |
• | acquired additional personal protective equipment; |
• | developed contingency plans and protocols to assess employee illness; |
• | helped employees with childcare issues due to school and daycare closures; |
• | implemented COVID-19 temperature screening for employees entering our manufacturing and distribution facilities; and |
• | initiated a visitor pre-entry questionnaire to limit potential exposure in our facilities. |
During the quarter ended March 31, 2020, we saw increased demand for our products as a result of customer stocking, particularly within our IV Solutions and Infusion Systems product lines. We also experienced foreign exchange losses related to
27
the strengthening of the U.S. dollar relative to certain foreign currencies as general economic conditions declined. During March 2020, as a precautionary measure in response to market uncertainty driven by COVID-19, we preemptively increased our liquidity by borrowing $150.0 million under our Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility ("Credit Facility").
The effect of the COVID-19 pandemic will not be fully reflected in our results of operations and overall financial performance until future periods. The duration and extent of the impact from the COVID-19 pandemic depends on future developments that cannot be fully predicted at this time, as such, the impact of the pandemic on our future results of operations and overall financial performance remain uncertain and can not as yet be quantified. However, our future results could be impacted by the following:
• | lost revenue or additional costs associated with either disruptions at our production and distribution facilities or interruptions in our supply chain; |
• | fluctuations in demand from customers as a result of an increase in COVID-19 patient admissions in hospitals offset by the decline in non-COVID-19 patient admissions; |
• | healthcare customers that defer the more profitable elective procedures may experience financial difficulties and may be unable to pay within payment terms for the products they purchased; |
• | potential lower demand in future periods due to over-purchasing of our products due to the COVID-19 pandemic; |
• | reduced revenue due to delays in implementation of our infusion systems and oncology products at hospital locations due to restricted access; |
• | higher operating costs related to additional compensation paid to our manufacturing and distribution facility workers; |
• | volatility in revenue and income due to foreign currency fluctuations; |
• | lower travel and entertainment costs due to global travel restrictions; |
• | lower income due to a delay in cost savings projects as a result of the travel and social distancing requirements of COVID-19; and |
• | lower interest income on cash balances due to recent reductions in interest rates along with higher interest expense from borrowing $150.0 million under our Credit Facility. |
See Risk Factors for further information regarding the actual and potential future impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on us, our operations and our business.
Infusion Consumables
Infusion therapy sets, used in hospitals and ambulatory clinics, consist of a tube running from a bottle or plastic bag containing a solution to a catheter inserted in a patient’s vein, that may or may not be used with an IV pump. Our primary Infusion Consumable products are:
• | Clave™ needlefree products, including the MicroClave, MicroClave Clear, and NanoClave™ brand of connectors, accessories, extension and administration sets used for the administration of IV fluids and medications and the Neutron catheter patency device, used to help maintain patency of central venous catheters; |
• | SwabCap disinfecting cap, used to protect and disinfect any needlefree connector, including competitive brands of connectors; |
• | TegoTM hemodialysis connector used to cap and protect hemodialysis central venous catheter hubs; |
• | NovaCath™ and SuperCath™ peripheral IV catheters (PIV); and |
• | ClearGuard HD antimicrobial barrier caps for hemodialysis catheters. |
Closed System Transfer Devices ("CSTD") and hazardous drug compounding systems are used to prepare and deliver hazardous IV medications such as those used in chemotherapy, which, if released, can have harmful effects on the healthcare worker and environment. Our products are:
• | ChemoLockTM CSTD which utilizes a proprietary needlefree connection method, is used for the preparation and administration of hazardous drugs. ChemoLock is used to limit the escape of hazardous drug or vapor concentrations, block the transfer of environmental contaminants into the system, and eliminates the risk of needlestick injury; |
28
• | ChemoClaveTM, an ISO Connection standard and universally compatible CSTD used for the preparation and administration of hazardous drugs. ChemoClave utilizes standard ISO luer locking connections, making it compatible with all brands of needlefree connectors and pump delivery systems. ChemoClave also is used to limit the escape of hazardous drug or vapor concentrations, block the transfer of environmental contaminants into the system, and eliminate the risk of needlestick injury; and |
• | DianaTM hazardous drug compounding system, an automated sterile compounding system that incorporates ChemoClave and ChemoLock CSTD consumables and IV workflow technology for the accurate, safe, and efficient preparation of hazardous drugs. It is a user-controlled automated system that provides repeatable accuracy of drug mixes and minimizes clinician exposure to hazardous drugs while helping to maintain the sterility of the drugs being mixed. |
The preparation of hazardous drugs typically takes place in a pharmacy where drugs are removed from vials and prepared for delivery to a patient. Those prepared drugs are then transferred to a nursing unit where the chemotherapy is administered via an infusion pump set to a patient. Components of the ChemoClave and ChemoLock product lines are used both in pharmacies and on the nursing floors for the preparation and administration of hazardous drugs.
Infusion Systems
We offer a wide range of infusion pumps, dedicated IV sets and software. Our primary Infusion System products are dedicated IV sets and the following:

We manage our product distribution in the U.S. through a network of three owned and one leased distribution facilities, as well as, through direct channels, which include independent distributors and the end users of our products, and as original equipment manufacturer suppliers. Most of our independent distributors handle the full line of our products. Internationally, we manage distribution utilizing international regional hubs and through independent distributors.
In the U.S. a substantial amount of our products are sold to group purchasing organization member hospitals. We believe that as healthcare providers continue to either consolidate or join major buying organizations, the success of our products will depend, in part, on our ability, either independently or through strategic relationships to secure long-term contracts with large healthcare providers and major buying organizations. Although we believe that we are not dependent on any single distributor, large healthcare provider or major buying organization for distribution of our products, the loss of a strategic relationship with any one of these organizations or a decline in the demand for our products could have a material adverse effect on our operating results.
30
We believe that achievement of our growth objectives worldwide will require increased efforts by us in sales and marketing and product acquisition and development; however, there is no assurance that we will be successful in implementing our growth strategy. Product development or acquisition efforts may not succeed, and even if we do develop or acquire additional products, there is no assurance that we will achieve profitable sales of such products. Increased expenditures for sales and marketing and product acquisition and development may not yield desired results when expected, or at all. While we have taken steps to control these risks, there are certain risks that may be outside of our control, and there is no assurance that steps we have taken will succeed.
Seasonality/Quarterly Results
There are no significant seasonal aspects to our business. We may experience fluctuations in net sales as a result of variations in the ordering patterns of our largest customers, which may be driven more by production scheduling and their inventory levels, rather than by seasonality. Our expenses often do not fluctuate in the same manner as net sales, which may cause fluctuations in operating income that are disproportionate to fluctuations in our revenue.

In addition to comparing changes in revenue on a U.S. GAAP basis, we also compare the changes in revenue from one period to another using constant currency. We provide constant currency information to enhance the visibility of underlying business trends, excluding the effects of changes in foreign currency translation rates. To calculate our constant currency results, we apply the average exchange rate for revenues from the prior year to the current year results. These results should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, results reported in accordance with GAAP. Results on a constant currency basis, as we present them, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and are not measures of performance presented in accordance with GAAP.
Infusion Consumables

Infusion Consumables revenue increased for the three months ended March 31, 2020, as compared to the same period in the prior year driven by the addition of new customers for our oncology products and increased orders from distributors partly due to the global COVID-19 pandemic. On a constant currency basis, Infusion Consumables revenue would have been $125.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, an increase of $4.5 million or 3.6%, as compared to the same period in the prior year.

Critical Care revenue decreased for the three months ended March 31, 2020, as compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily as a result of manufacturing challenges that resulted in supply constraints of certain products.
Gross Margins
For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, gross margins were 36.9% and 40.9%, respectively. The decrease in gross margin for the three months ended March 31, 2020, as compared to the same period in the prior year was primarily due to lower IV Solutions manufacturing volumes and charges related to the disposal of certain infusion sets.

SG&A | $ | 72.3 | $ | 72.6 | $ | (0.3 | ) | (0.4 | )% |
SG&A expenses in total were flat for the three months ended March 31, 2020, as compared to the same period in the prior year. For the three months ended March 31, 2020 as compared to the same period in the prior year, bad debt expense decreased $2.5 million, consulting expense decreased $1.8 million, and travel expenses decreased $1.0 million. Offsetting these decreases was a $2.3 million increase in dealer fees and a $1.8 million increase in amortization expense. Bad debt expense is estimated based on an analysis of the expected losses on the accounts receivables at the reporting date, which varies from period-to-period due to the quality of those receivables. Consulting expense was higher in the prior year due to the integration of our HIS business acquired in 2017. Travel expenses decreased in the current year, as compared to the same prior year period, due to our ongoing efforts to reduce travel costs, and to a lesser extent due to self-imposed travel restrictions in response to COVID-19. Dealer fees increased due to an increase in revenue from distributors. Amortization expense increased as a result of the increase in amortization base due to the November 2019 acquisition of Pursuit Vascular, Inc ("Pursuit").

Restructuring and Strategic Transaction and Integration Expenses
Restructuring and strategic transaction and integration expenses were $12.3 million and $24.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
Restructuring charges
Restructuring charges were $7.2 million and $0.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Restructuring charges for the three months ended March 31, 2020, were primarily related to severance and other costs related to office and facility closures. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, the restructuring charges were related to the integration of our acquired HIS business. We expect to pay our unpaid restructuring charges as of March 31, 2020 by the end of the year.
Strategic transaction and integration expenses
Strategic transaction and integration expenses were $5.1 million and $23.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The strategic transaction and integration expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2020 were primarily related to the integration of HIS which included the migration of IT systems at our Austin facility. The strategic transaction and integration expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2019, were primarily related to our final Pfizer separation costs and clean-up, which included a $12.7 million non-cash write-off of related assets.
33
Change in Fair Value of Earn-out
For the three months ended March 31, 2020, there was no change in fair value of the Pursuit earn-out liability as the underlying target forecasts did not change. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, we conducted a revaluation of the fair value of our HIS contingent earn-out liability that resulted in a decrease of value of $7.7 million.
Contract Settlement
For the three months ended March 31, 2019, we incurred an expense of $2.9 million related to the resolution of a dispute with a product partner, which resulted in a redefinition of our contractual arrangement and in the rights and remedies determined under such arrangement.
Interest Expense
Interest expense was $0.2 million and $0.1 million or the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The interest expense for all periods is related to the per annum commitment fee charged on the unused portion of the revolver under our Credit Facility, the amortization of financing costs incurred as of year-end December 31, 2017, in connection with entering into the Credit Facility, and for the three months ended March 31, 2020, interest incurred on borrowings under the Credit Facility (see Note 16: Long-Term Obligations in our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information). Interest expense for the remainder of 2020 will increase due to the borrowing under the revolving Credit Facility.
Other (Expense) Income, net
Other (expense) income netted to ($5.5) million and $3.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, the other expense, net was primarily related to $6.1 million in foreign exchange losses as a result of the strengthening of the U.S. dollar from the impact of COVID-19, partially offset by interest income. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, the other income, net was primarily interest income and foreign exchange gains.
Income Taxes
For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, income taxes were accrued at an estimated effective tax rate of 17% and 7%, respectively.
The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2020 differs from the federal statutory rate of 21% principally because of the effect of the mix of U.S. and foreign incomes, state income taxes, global intangible low-taxed income ("GILTI"), foreign-derived intangible income ("FDII") and tax credits.
The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2019 differs from the federal statutory rate of 21% principally because of the effect of the mix of U.S. and foreign incomes, state income taxes, GILTI and tax credits. The effective tax rate during the three months ended March 31, 2019 included a tax benefit of $5.6 million related to the excess tax benefits recognized on stock option exercises and the vesting of restricted stock units during the period.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
During the first three months of 2020, our cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments increased by $147.0 million from $292.6 million at December 31, 2019 to $439.7 million at March 31, 2020.
We are continuously assessing our liquidity and anticipated capital requirements due to the uncertainty created by COVID-19. We are currently closely monitoring and managing our receivable and payable balances.
Cash Flows from Operating Activities
Our net cash provided by operations for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $39.5 million. Net income plus adjustments for non-cash net expenses contributed $55.3 million. Net cash used in operations as a result of changes in operating assets and liabilities was $15.8 million. The changes in operating assets and liabilities included a $35.1 million decrease in accounts payable, and a $6.4 million increase in other assets. Offsetting these amounts was a $19.4 million decrease in inventories, a $2.6 million decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets, $2.3 million in net changes in income taxes,
34
including excess tax benefits and deferred income taxes, a $0.9 million decrease in accounts receivables, and a $0.5 million increase in accrued liabilities. The decrease in accounts payable was due to the timing of payments. The increase in other assets was due to the purchase of spare parts. The decrease in inventory was primarily due to improved inventory management and increased demand for certain products driven by the global COVID-19 pandemic. The increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets was primarily due to an increase in deferred costs. The net changes in income taxes was a result of the timing of payments.
Our net cash used in operations for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was $21.0 million. Net income plus adjustments for non-cash net expenses contributed $70.5 million. Net cash used in operations as a result of changes in operating assets and liabilities was $91.5 million. The changes in operating assets and liabilities included a $49.5 million
increase in accounts receivable, a $34.8 million decrease in accrued liabilities, a $12.0 million increase in inventories, a $7.5 million increase in other assets and $1.1 million in net changes in income taxes, including excess tax benefits and deferred income taxes. Offsetting these amounts was a $10.3 million decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets and a $3.1 million increase in accounts payable. The increase in accounts receivable was mainly due to the reclassification of receivables from Pfizer and the timing of revenue and collections. In 2019, receivables from Pfizer are included in accounts receivable and not in a separate related-party receivable line item as in 2018. As of December 31, 2018, Pfizer had sold all of its shares of ICU common stock thereby ending its related-party relationship with ICU. The decrease in accrued liabilities was primarily a result of the payout of accrued compensation. The increase in inventory was primarily due to an increase in our finished goods safety stock. The increase in other assets was primarily related to the purchase of spare parts. The net changes in income taxes was a result of the timing of payments. The decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets was primarily due to the collection of receivable amounts owed from Pfizer. The increase in accounts payable was due to the timing of payments.

We anticipate making additional investments in machinery and equipment in our manufacturing operations in Costa Rica, the U.S. and Mexico to support new and existing products, in infusion devices that are placed with customers outside the U.S., and in IT to benefit world-wide operations. Amounts of spending are estimates and actual spending may substantially differ from those amounts.

(2) During the three months ended March 31, 2020, our employees surrendered 63,511 shares of our common stock from vested restricted stock awards as consideration for approximately $12.2 million in minimum statutory withholding obligations paid on their behalf. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, our employees surrendered 77,642 shares of our common stock from vested restricted stock awards as consideration for approximately $18.2 million in minimum statutory withholding obligations paid on their behalf.
In August 2019, our Board of Directors approved a share purchase plan to purchase up to $100.0 million of our common stock. This plan replaced our existing plan and has no expiration date. As of March 31, 2020, all of the $100 million available for purchase was remaining under the plan.
We have a substantial cash and investment security position generated from operations and from borrowings under our revolving Credit Facility. We maintain this position to address any operational challenges related to COVID-19, fund our growth, meet increasing working capital requirements, fund capital expenditures and to take advantage of acquisition opportunities that may arise. Our primary investment goal is capital preservation.
Access to Capital
We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents along with funds expected to be generated from future operations will provide us with sufficient funds to finance our current operations for the next twelve months. In the event that we experience downturns, cyclical fluctuations in our business that are more severe or longer than anticipated or if we fail to achieve anticipated revenue and expense levels, we may need to obtain or seek alternative sources of capital or financing, and we can provide no assurances that the terms of such capital or financing will be available to us on favorable terms, if at all. Our ability to generate cash flows from operations, issue debt or enter into other financing arrangements on acceptable terms could be adversely affected if there is a material decline in the demand for our products or in the solvency of our customers or suppliers, deterioration in our key financial ratios or credit ratings or other significantly unfavorable changes in conditions.
Credit Facility
We have a five-year Credit Facility with various lenders for $150.0 million, with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. as the administrative agent (see Note 16: Long-Term Obligations). The Credit Facility has an accordion feature that would enable us to increase the borrowing capacity of the Credit Facility by the greater of (i) $100.0 million and (ii) 2.00x Total Leverage. Under the terms of the Credit Facility, we will be subject to certain financial covenants pertaining to leverage and fixed charge coverage ratios. Borrowings under the Credit Facility will bear interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin tied to the leverage ratio in effect. Any unused portion of the Credit Facility will be subject to a per annum commitment fee which is also calculated using the leverage ratio in effect. The Credit Facility matures in 2022. During March 2020, as a precautionary measure in response to market uncertainty driven by the COVID-19 pandemic, we preemptively increased our liquidity by borrowing $150.0 million under our Credit Facility.
36
Financial Covenants
The Credit Facility contains certain negative financial covenants, including, Consolidated Total Leverage and Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratios.
The Consolidated Leverage Ratio is defined as the ratio of Consolidated Total Funded Indebtedness on such date, to Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, as defined under the Credit Facility Agreement, for the most recently completed four fiscal quarters. The maximum Consolidated Leverage Ratio is not more than 3.00 to 1.00.
The Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is defined as the ratio of: (a) Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA less the sum of (i) capital expenditures, (ii) federal, state, local and foreign income taxes paid in cash and (iii) cash restricted payments made after the closing date, to (b) Consolidated Fixed Charges for the most recently completed four fiscal quarters, calculated on a pro forma basis. The minimum Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is 2.00 to 1.00.
We were in compliance with all financial covenants as of March 31, 2020.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
In the normal course of business, we have agreed to indemnify our officers and directors to the maximum extent permitted under Delaware law and to indemnify customers as to certain intellectual property matters related to sales of our products. There is no maximum limit on the indemnification that may be required under these agreements. Although we can provide no assurances, we have never incurred, nor do we expect to incur, any material liability for indemnification.
Contractual Obligations
During 2019, we signed ten-year lease for a 610,806 square foot warehouse, which commenced during the first quarter of 2020. Over the ten-year lease term, lease payment will be approximately $21.9 million. There have been no other material changes to our contractual obligations disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 ("Annual Report").
Critical Accounting Policies
In our Annual Report, we identified the critical accounting policies which affect our more significant estimates and assumptions used in preparing our consolidated financial statements, there have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies from those previously disclosed in our Annual Report.

Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk |
Interest Rate Risk
We are exposed to interest rate changes primarily as a result of our borrowings under our Credit Facility used to increase liquidity as a precautionary measure in response to market uncertainty driven by COVID-19.
During March 2020, we drew down $150 million on our Credit Facility. Interest on the borrowed portion of the Credit Facility bears interest at our option, based on the Base Rate plus applicable margin or the LIBOR rate plus applicable margin, see further details in Part II, Item 8, of our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K. As a result of our Credit Facility, we are exposed to interest rate risk from changes in these interest rates. We use a sensitivity analysis to measure our interest risk exposure.
Based on our Credit Facility balance of $150.0 million at March 31, 2020 and assuming the use of the LIBOR rate, a 1% change in interest rates could potentially result in additional annual interest expense or savings of $1.5 million.
Foreign Exchange Risk
We have foreign currency exchange risk related to foreign-denominated cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable and accrued liabilities.
In our European operations, our net Euro asset position at March 31, 2020 was approximately €55.9 million. A 10% change in the conversion of the Euro to the U.S. dollar for our cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities from the March 31, 2020 spot rate would impact our consolidated amounts on these balance sheet items by approximately $6.1 million, or 0.7% of these consolidated net assets. We expect that in the future, with the growth of our European distribution operations, net Euro denominated instruments will continue to increase. In our Canadian operations, our net Canadian dollar asset position at March 31, 2020 was approximately $24.5 million. A 10% change in the conversion of the Canadian dollar to the U.S. dollar for our cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities from the March 31, 2020 spot rate would impact our consolidated amounts on these balance sheet items by approximately $1.6 million, or 0.2% of these net assets. We currently do not hedge our Canadian dollar or Euro foreign currency exposures.
We have manufacturing facilities and conduct business transactions denominated in the Mexican Peso. We hedge a portion of our manufacturing spend, which reduces our exposure to the foreign currency exchange risk related to the Mexican Peso (see Note 7: Derivatives and Hedging to the condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q).
Item 4. | Controls and Procedures |
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
39
Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded, based on their evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")), as of the end of the period covered by this Report, that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that the information we are required to disclose in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and that such information is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC.
There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2020 that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. | Legal Proceedings |
Certain legal proceedings in which we are involved are discussed in Part I, Item 1. "Financial Statements" of this Form 10-Q in Note 18. Commitments and Contingencies to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, and is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 1A. | Risk Factors |
The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted how we, our suppliers and our customers operate and the duration and extent to which this will impact our business, future results of operations, liquidity and overall financial performance remains uncertain.
In late 2019, a novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) was first reported in Wuhan, China, and on March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization characterized COVID-19 as a global pandemic. The outbreak has spread globally and has led governments and other authorities around the world, including federal, state and local authorities in the United States and elsewhere, to impose measures intended to control its spread, including restrictions on freedom of movement and business operations such as travel restrictions, border closings, business closures, quarantines and shelter-in-place orders. Additionally, the COVID-19 pandemic and the measures taken to limit its spread have negatively impacted the economy across many industries. As such, COVID-19 pandemic may pose significant risks to our business. We operate globally and the COVID-19 pandemic and its adverse effects have impacted most of the locations where we, our customers and our suppliers conduct business and as a result, during the first quarter of 2020, we have experienced some disruption to our operations, most notably due to self-imposed travel restrictions.
As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have temporarily closed certain offices and facilities deemed non-essential under applicable guidance from relevant authorities, including our corporate headquarters. With a large number of employees now working remotely there is a potential loss of productivity, which could negatively impact our future results.
Our manufacturing, distribution, and pump service facilities are operating under our business continuity plan due to the need for our critical healthcare products, however, we have taken certain precautionary measures including the following to maximize the safety of our employees and to mitigate disruption to our operations:
• | implemented physical distancing measures; |
• | enhanced hygiene protocols and increased frequency of cleaning procedures; |
• | acquired additional personal protective equipment; |
• | developed contingency plans and protocols to assess employee illness; |
• | helped employees with childcare issues due to school and daycare closures; |
• | implemented COVID-19 temperature screening for employees entering our manufacturing and distribution facilities; and |
• | initiated a visitor pre-entry questionnaire to limit potential exposure in our facilities. |
While we anticipate that the foregoing measures are temporary, we cannot predict the specific duration for which these precautionary measures will stay in effect, and we may elect to take additional measures as the information available to us continues to develop. These actions, and any future actions we may take in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, could negatively impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.
40
Additionally, the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business will not be fully reflected in our results of operations and overall financial performance until future periods. The duration and extent of the impact on our business from the COVID-19 pandemic depends on future developments that cannot be fully predicted at this time, as such, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our future results of operations and overall financial performance remain uncertain and cannot as yet be quantified. For example, a decline in the global economy could delay or significantly decrease purchases of our products in the future. Adverse economic and market conditions could also harm the parties with whom we do business, including our customers, distributors and suppliers. Additional factors that have contributed or may contribute to the adverse impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, on our business, results of operations, financial condition and liquidity include, without limitation, the following:
• | lost revenue or additional costs associated with either disruptions at our production and distribution facilities or interruptions in our supply chain; |
• | fluctuations in demand from customers as a result of an increase in COVID-19 patient admissions in hospitals offset by the decline in non-COVID-19 patient admissions; |
• | healthcare customers that defer the more profitable elective procedures may experience financial difficulties and may be unable to pay within payment terms for the products they purchased; |
• | potential lower demand in future periods due to over-purchasing of our products due to the COVID-19 pandemic; |
• | reduced revenue due to delays in implementation of our infusion systems and oncology products at hospital locations due to restricted access; |
• | higher operating costs related to additional compensation paid to our manufacturing and distribution facility workers; |
• | volatility in revenue and income due to foreign currency fluctuations; |
• | lower travel and entertainment costs due to global travel restrictions; |
• | lower income due to a delay in cost savings projects as a result of the travel and social distancing requirements of COVID-19; and |
• | lower interest income on cash balances due to recent reductions in interest rates along with higher interest expense from borrowing $150.0 million under our Credit Facility. |
To the extent the COVID-19 pandemic and related containment measures continue to adversely affect regional, national and global economic conditions and financial markets, as well as the business, results of operations, financial conditions and liquidity of us, our suppliers and our customers, it may also have the effect of heightening many of the risks described in this ‘‘Risk Factors’’ section and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 and many of the risks described under the caption ‘‘Risk Factors’’ and elsewhere in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, including the risks resulting from our dependency on key personnel; impairment of our supply chain or manufacturing facilities; and the impact of negative economic conditions. In addition, in light of the COVID-19 pandemic and the measures taken to limit its spread, our historical information regarding our business, results of operations, financial condition or liquidity may not be representative of the future results of operations, financial condition, liquidity or other financial or operating results of us or our business.
Our ability to manufacture products may be materially adversely impacted by COVID-19.
We manufacture out of four main facilities, Austin, Texas, Salt Lake City, Utah, Costa Rica and Mexico. If the manufacturing capabilities of any of these sites are impacted as a result of COVID-19, we may not be able to timely manufacture our products at the required levels or at all. A disruption at any of our manufacturing facilities could have a material, adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. For example, the COVID-19 pandemic could have a substantial impact on our employees’ attendance and productivity due to a variety of factors, such as shelter-in-place orders, quarantines and short and long term illness, all of which could interrupt and delay the manufacture of our products.
Our suppliers may experience financial difficulties or business disruptions that could negatively affect their operations and their ability to supply us with the raw materials and components required for our products. Any delay or shortages of raw materials or components from our suppliers could interrupt and delay the manufacturing of our products.
Our sales may be materially adversely impacted by COVID-19.
We have temporarily closed our non-essential offices and facilities, including our corporate headquarters, and a large number of employees are now working remotely. In addition to this potentially hindering productivity, our sales force typically operates by meeting in person with customers to discuss our products. As many hospitals are currently restricting access to their facilities to essential personnel, this may negatively affect demand for our products by limiting the ability of our sales personnel to negotiate new and maintain existing contracts with customers. We may also experience significant reductions in demand for
41
certain products as our health care customers re-prioritize the treatment of patients, delay elective procedures and shift resources and operations to fight COVID-19 and the complications it causes. Additionally, the COVID-19 pandemic will potentially adversely affect our distributors as they may not be able to maintain the current levels of sales. As such, the impacts of COVID-19 on our sales force and our distributors could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in significant financial market and foreign currency volatility, which could adversely affect our earnings and cash flows.
The COVID-19 pandemic has led to periods of significant volatility in financial markets and foreign currency exchange rates. Given that our financial results are reported in U.S. dollars, but our operations are conducted internationally, currency exchange rate changes can have a significant impact on our financial results. During the first quarter of 2020, we recognized $6.1 million in net foreign exchange losses in our results of operations.
We are subject to risks associated with debt financing.
The credit agreement governing our Credit Facility contains, among other things, certain customary restrictive covenants that limit our ability to incur additional indebtedness and liens, merge with other companies or consummate certain changes of control, acquire other companies, make certain investments, pay dividends, enter into certain transactions with affiliates, and transfer or dispose of assets as well as financial covenants requiring us to maintain a specified consolidated total leverage ratio and a specified consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio. While we have not previously breached and are not currently in breach of these or any other covenants contained in our credit agreement, there can be no guarantee that we will not breach these covenants in the future.
Additionally, our ability to comply with these covenants may be affected by events beyond our control, including the COVID-19 pandemic. A breach of any of these covenants could result in a default under the credit agreement, which could cause all of the outstanding indebtedness under our Credit Facility to become immediately due and payable. These covenants could also limit our ability to seek capital through the incurrence of new indebtedness or, if we are unable to meet our obligations, require us to repay any outstanding amounts with sources of capital we may otherwise use to fund our business. As such, these restrictive covenants contained in our Credit Facility may restrict our ability to pursue our business strategies.
In evaluating an investment in our common stock, investors should consider carefully, among other things, the risk factors previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC for the year ended December 31, 2019, including the risks resulting from our foreign currency exchange rates, as well as the information contained in this Quarterly Report and our other reports and registration statements filed with the SEC.
