INTEGER HOLDINGS CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

(1.) BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Integer Holdings Corporation (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, “Integer” or the “Company”) is a publicly-traded corporation listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “ITGR.” Integer is one of the largest medical device outsource manufacturers in the world serving the cardiac, neuromodulation, vascular, orthopedics, advanced surgical and portable medical markets. The Company provides innovative, high-quality medical technologies that enhance the lives of patients worldwide. In addition, it develops batteries for high-end niche applications in the energy, military, and environmental markets. The Company’s reportable segments are: (1) Medical and (2) Non-Medical. The Company’s customers include large multi-national original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) and their affiliated subsidiaries.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information (Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 270, Interim Reporting) and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all of the information necessary for a full presentation of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows in conformity with GAAP. In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the Company for the periods presented. Intercompany transactions and balances have been fully eliminated in consolidation.

Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the fiscal year as a whole. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, certain components of equity, sales, expenses, and related disclosures at the date of the financial statements and during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

The second quarter and first six months of 2021 ended on July 2 and consisted of 92 day sand 183 days, respectively. The second quarter and first six months of 2020 ended on July 3 and consisted of 91 days and 185 days, respectively.

Risks and Uncertainties

Beginning in early March 2020, the global spread of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) has created significant uncertainty and worldwide economic disruption. Specific impacts to the Company’s business include labor shortages, disruptions in the supply chain, delayed or reduced customer orders and sales, restrictions on associates’ ability to travel or work, and delays in shipments to and from certain countries. The extent to which COVID-19 will continue to impact the Company’s operations depends on future developments, which remain highly uncertain and difficult to predict, including, among others, the duration of the outbreak, the effectiveness and utilization of vaccines for COVID-19 and its variants, new information that may emerge concerning the severity of COVID-19 and the actions, especially those taken by governmental authorities to contain the pandemic or treat its impact. As pandemic-related events continue to evolve, additional impacts may arise that the Company is not aware of currently. Any prolonged material disruption of the Company’s labor force, suppliers, manufacturing, or customers could materially impact its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The Company considers the applicability and impact of all Accounting Standard Updates (“ASU”) issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). The Company evaluated all recent accounting pronouncements issued, including those that are currently effective, and determined that the adoption of these pronouncements would not have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company. There have been no new or material changes to the significant accounting policies discussed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, that are of significance, or potential significance, to the Company.

(2.) BUSINESS ACQUISITION

On February 19, 2020, the Company acquired certain assets and liabilities of InoMec Ltd. (“InoMec”), a privately-held company based in Israel that specializes in the research, development and manufacturing of medical devices, including minimally invasive tools, delivery systems, tubing and catheters, surgery tools, drug-device combination, laser combined devices, and tooling and production. The acquisition enables the Company to create a research and development center in Israel, closer to the customer base in the region. The fair value of the consideration transferred was $7.0 million, which included an initial cash payment of $5.3 million and $1.7 million in estimated fair value of contingent consideration.

The contingent consideration represents the estimated fair value of the Company’s obligation, under the asset purchase agreement, to make additional payments of up to $3.5 million over the four years following the acquisition based on specified conditions being met. Based on the final purchase price allocation, the assets acquired principally comprise $2.0 million of intangible assets, $4.8 million of goodwill, $0.3 million of acquired property, plant and equipment, and a net liability for other working capital items of $0.1 million. Intangible assets included developed technology, customer relationships and non-compete provisions, which are being amortized over a weighted average period of 5.9 years from the date of acquisition.

The amount allocated to goodwill for this acquisition is deductible for income tax purposes. The fair value of the contingent consideration was estimated using the Monte Carlo valuation approach. See Note 13 “Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements” for additional information related to the fair value measurement of the contingent consideration.

For segment reporting purposes, the results of operations and assets from this acquisition have been included in the Company’s Medical segment since the acquisition date. Sales related to InoMec were $0.9 million and $1.7 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended July 2, 2021. Sales related to InoMec were $0.8 million and $1.1 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended July 3, 2020. Earnings related to the operations consisting of the assets and liabilities acquired from InoMec for the three and six months ended July 2, 2021 and July 3, 2020 were not material. During the three and six months ended on July 3, 2020, direct costs of this acquisition of $0.1 million and $0.8 million, respectively, were expensed as incurred and included in Other operating expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.

Pro forma financial information has not been presented for this acquisition as the net effects were not significant or material to the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

(7.) STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The Company’ maintains certain stock-based compensation plans that were approved by the Company’s stockholders and are administered by the Board of Directors (the “Board”) or the Compensation and Organization Committee of the Board. The stock-based compensation plans provide for the granting of stock options, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), stock appreciation rights and stock bonuses to employees, non-employee directors, consultants, and service providers.

On March 25, 2021, the Company’s Board adopted, subject to stockholder approval, the Integer Holdings Corporation 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2021 Plan”). The Company’s stockholders approved the 2021 Plan at the Company’s 2021 annual meeting of stockholders on May 19, 2021, at which time the 2021 Plan replaced the Company’s 2016 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2016 Plan”) and the Company ceased granting any new awards under the 2016 Plan. The number of shares initially reserved for issuance under the 2021 Plan is (i) 1,450,000 plus (ii) the total number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the 2016 Plan, plus (iii) any shares of common stock that are subject to awards forfeited, cancelled, expired, terminated or otherwise lapsed or settled in cash, in whole or in part, without the delivery of shares under the 2016 Plan. Each of the Company’s 2011 Stock Incentive Plan, the 2009 Stock Incentive Plan and the 2005 Stock Incentive Plan have expired, and no awards are available for issuance under these expired plans.

The components and classification of stock-based compensation expense were as follows (in thousands):

Restricted Stock Units

During the six months ended July 2, 2021, the Company awarded grants of either time-based RSUs or a mix of time-based RSUs and performance-based RSUs (“PRSUs”) to certain members of its Board and management. New Board members appointed during the first quarter of 2021 received a pro-rated portion of the their annual equity retainer in the form of time-based RSUs that vest in accordance with the regularly scheduled vesting schedule applicable to existing members of the Board. All other time-based RSUs granted during six months ended July 2, 2021 vest over a period of three years from the grant date, subject to the recipient’s continuous service to the Company. For the Company’s PRSUs, in addition to service conditions, the ultimate number of shares to be earned depends on the achievement of market-based conditions. The market-based conditions are based on the Company’s achievement of a relative total shareholder return (“TSR”) performance requirement, on a percentile basis, compared to a defined group of peer companies over three year performance periods.

(7.) STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION (Continued)

The Company uses a Monte Carlo simulation model to determine the grant-date fair value of awards with TSR-based performance conditions. The grant-date fair value of all other RSUs is equal to the closing market price of Integer common stock on the date of grant.

The weighted average fair value and assumptions used to value the TSR portion of the PRSUs granted are as follows:


	Six Months Ended
	July 2, 2021			July 3, 2020
Weighted average fair value	$	85.16		$	107.42
Risk-free interest rate	0.19		%	1.53		%
Expected volatility	41		%	30		%
Expected life (in years)	3.0			2.9
Expected dividend yield	—		%	—		%

The valuation of the TSR portion of the PRSUs granted during 2021 and 2020 also reflects a weighted average illiquidity discount of 8.19% and 8.00%, respectively, related to the six-month period that recipients are restricted from selling, transferring, pledging or assigning the underlying shares, in the event of vesting.

The following table summarizes time-vested RSU activity for the six month period ended July 2, 2021:


	Time-Vested Activity	Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
Nonvested at December 31, 2020	207,923	$	75.38

Acquisition and integration

Acquisition and integration costs primarily consist of professional fees and other costs related to business acquisitions. During the six months ended July 2, 2021 and July 3, 2020, acquisition and integration costs included $0.1 million and $0.9 million, respectively, of expenses related to the acquisition of certain assets and liabilities of InoMec, which was acquired in February 2020, and US BioDesign, LLC (“USB”), which was acquired in October 2019. Acquisition and integration costs for the six months ended July 3, 2020, also includes a $0.5 million adjustment to reduce the fair value of acquisition-related contingent consideration liability associated with the Company’s acquisition of USB. See Note 13 “Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements” for additional information related to the fair value measurement of the contingent consideration.

Other general expenses

During the six months ended July 2, 2021 and July 3, 2020, the Company recorded expenses related to other initiatives not described above, which relate primarily to integration and operational initiatives to reduce future costs and improve efficiencies. The 2021 and 2020 amounts primarily include data archiving expenses, information technology systems conversion expenses, and expenses related to the restructuring of certain legal entities of the Company.

(9.) INCOME TAXES

The income tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimate of the annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items, if any, that are taken into account in the relevant period. Each quarter, the estimate of the annual effective tax rate is updated, and if the estimated effective tax rate changes, a cumulative adjustment is made. There is a potential for volatility of the effective tax rate due to several factors, including discrete items, changes in the mix and amount of pre-tax income and the jurisdictions to which it relates, changes in tax laws and foreign tax holidays, business reorganizations, settlements with taxing authorities and foreign currency fluctuations. In addition, the Company continues to explore tax planning opportunities that may have a material impact on its effective tax rate.

The Company’s effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2021 was 4.4% on $30.8 million of income before taxes compared to (135.8)% on $0.2 million of income before taxes for the same period in 2020. The Company’s effective tax rate for the first six months of 2021 was 8.6% on $55.8 million of income before taxes compared to 14.4% on $36.8 million of income before taxes for the same period in 2020. The difference between the Company’s effective tax rates and the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate of 21% for the second quarter and first six months of 2021 and 2020 is due principally to the net impact of the Company’s earnings outside the U.S., which are generally taxed at rates that differ from the U.S federal rate, the Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (“GILTI”) tax, the availability of tax credits, and the recognition of certain discrete tax benefits. The Company recorded discrete tax benefits of $3.8 million and $4.4 million, respectively, for the second quarter and first six months of 2021, compared to discrete tax benefits of $0.1 million and $1.0 million, respectively, for the second quarter and first six months of 2020. Approximately $3.5 million of the discrete tax benefits recognized for the second quarter and first six months of 2021 relate to the reversal of unrecognized tax benefits resulting from the effective settlement of tax audits during the second quarter of 2021. The remainder of the discrete tax benefits relate predominately to excess tax benefits recognized upon vesting of RSUs or exercise of stock options during those quarters.

Unrecognized tax benefits reflect the difference between positions taken or expected to be taken on income tax returns and the amounts reflected in the financial statements. As of July 2, 2021, the Company had unrecognized tax benefits of approximately $2.1 million, of which approximately $2.0 million would favorably impact the effective tax rate, net of federal benefit on state issues, if recognized. As of July 2, 2021, the Company believes the reasonably possible total amount of unrecognized tax benefits that could increase or decrease in the next 12 months as a result of various statute expirations, audit closures, and/or tax settlements would not be material to its consolidated financial statements.

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, many governments have enacted or are contemplating measures to provide aid and economic stimulus. These measures may include deferring the due dates of tax payments or other changes to their income and non-income-based tax laws. The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”), which was enacted on March 27, 2020 in the U.S., includes measures to assist companies, including temporary changes to income and non-income- based tax laws. The CARES Act provides for deferred payment of the employer portion of social security taxes through the end of 2020, with 50% of the deferred amount due January 3, 2022 and the remaining 50% due January 3, 2023. As of July 2, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had deferred a total of $9.7 million of payroll taxes. The deferred payroll taxes are included within Accrued expenses and other current liabilities and Other long-term liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Interest Rate Swaps

The Company periodically enters into interest rate swap agreements in order to reduce the cash flow risk caused by interest rate changes on its outstanding floating rate borrowings. Under these swap agreements, the Company pays a fixed rate of interest and receives a floating rate equal to one-month LIBOR. The variable rate received from the swap agreements and the variable rate paid on the outstanding debt will have the same rate of interest, excluding the credit spread, and will reset and pay interest on the same date. The Company has designated these swap agreements as cash flow hedges based on concluding the hedged forecasted transaction is probable of occurring within the period the cash flow hedge is anticipated to affect earnings.

As of July 2, 2021, the current portion of contingent consideration liabilities is $1.0 million and included in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities, and the non-current portion is $1.3 million and included in Other long-term liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of December 31, 2020, the current portion of contingent consideration liabilities was $1.7 million and included in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities, and the non-current portion was $2.2 million and included in Other long-term liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The following table provides quantitative information associated with the fair value measurement of the Company’s liabilities for contingent consideration:


	July 2, 2021
Contingency Type	Maximum Payout (undiscounted)		Fair Value		Valuation Technique	Unobservable Inputs	Weighted Average or Range
Revenue-based payments	$	6,750	$	2,281	Monte Carlo	Revenue volatility	35.0	%
						Discount rate	4.0	%
						Projected year(s) of payment	2022-2024


	December 31, 2020
Contingency Type	Maximum Payout (undiscounted)		Fair Value		Valuation Technique	Unobservable Inputs	Weighted Average or Range
Revenue-based payments	$	9,000	$	3,900	Monte Carlo	Revenue volatility	35.0	%
						Discount rate	4.0	%
						Projected year(s) of payment	2021-2024

During the first quarter of 2020, the Company acquired a set of similar identifiable intangible assets relating to a license to use technology within its Non-Medical segment. At the date of acquisition, the Company estimated the original fair value of the contingent consideration to be $1.0 million, which was paid during 2020 upon achievement of the applicable milestones.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

Fair value standards also apply to certain assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. The carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these items.

Borrowings under the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility, TLA Facility and TLB Facility accrue interest at a floating rate tied to a standard short-term borrowing index, selected at the Company’s option, plus an applicable margin. The carrying amount of this floating rate debt approximates fair value based upon the respective interest rates adjusting with market rate adjustments.

Equity Investments

The Company holds long-term, strategic investments in companies to promote business and strategic objectives. These investments are included in Other long-term assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Non-marketable equity securities are equity securities without readily determinable fair value. The Company has elected the practicability exception to use an alternative approach that measures the securities at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from qualifying observable price changes. If an impairment is recognized on the Company’s non-marketable equity securities during the period, these assets are classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy based on the nature of the fair value inputs.

Equity investments comprise the following (in thousands):


	July 2, 2021		December 31, 2020
Equity method investment	$	19,451	$	21,470
Non-marketable equity securities	5,723		5,723

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

•the fact that the healthcare industry is highly regulated and subject to various regulatory changes.

Except as required by applicable law, the Company assumes no obligation to update forward-looking statements in this report whether to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events or changes in future operating results, financial conditions or prospects, or otherwise.

In this Form 10-Q, references to “Integer,” “we,” “us,” “our” and the “Company” mean Integer Holdings Corporation and its subsidiaries, unless the context indicates otherwise.

Our Business

Integer Holdings Corporation is one of the largest medical device outsource (“MDO”) manufacturers in the world serving the cardiac, neuromodulation, vascular, orthopedics, advanced surgical and portable medical markets. We also develop batteries for high-end niche applications in the non-medical energy, military, and environmental markets. Our vision is to enhance the lives of patients worldwide by being our customers’ partner of choice for innovative technologies and services.

We organize our business into two reportable segments, Medical and Non-Medical, and derive our revenues from four principal product lines. The Medical segment includes the Cardio & Vascular, Cardiac & Neuromodulation and Advanced Surgical, Orthopedics & Portable Medical product lines and the Non-Medical segment comprises the Electrochem product line. For more information on our segments, please refer to Note 14 “Segment Information” of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 1 of this report.

The second quarter and first six months of 2021 ended on July 2 and consisted of 92 days and 183 days, respectively. The second quarter and first six months of 2020 ended on July 3 and consisted of 91 days and 185 days, respectively.

Impact of COVID-19

Beginning in early March 2020, the global spread of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) has created significant uncertainty and worldwide economic disruption. Specific impacts to our business include labor shortages, disruptions in the supply chain, delayed or reduced customer orders and sales, restrictions on associates’ ability to travel or work, and delays in shipments to and from certain countries. The extent to which COVID-19 will continue to impact our operations will depend on future developments, which remain highly uncertain and difficult to predict, including, among others, the duration of the outbreak, the effectiveness and utilization of vaccines for COVID-19 and its variants, new information that may emerge concerning the severity of COVID-19 and the actions, especially those taken by governmental authorities to contain the pandemic or treat its impact. As pandemic-related events continue to evolve, additional impacts may arise that we are not aware of currently. Any prolonged material disruption of our labor force, suppliers, manufacturing, or customers could materially impact our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Recent Business Acquisition

On February 19, 2020, we acquired certain assets and liabilities of InoMec Ltd. (“InoMec”), a privately-held company based in Israel that specializes in the research, development and manufacturing of medical devices, including minimally invasive tools, delivery systems, tubing and catheters, surgery tools, drug-device combination, laser combined devices, and tooling and production. The acquisition enables us to create a research and development center in Israel, closer to the customer base in the region.

Refer to Note 2 “Business Acquisition” of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 1 of this report for additional information about this acquisition.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Strategic Overview

We continue to take steps to better align our resources in order to invest to grow and protect, and preserve our portfolio of products. In addition to our portfolio strategy, we continue to execute our six key operational strategic imperatives designed to drive excellence in everything we do:

•Sales Force Excellence: We are focusing our efforts within the commercial organization to further improve our efficiency and effectiveness and to align with product line growth strategies and customer needs. These activities are about getting more out of the capabilities we already have, and increasing individual accountability and clarity of ownership, while serving customers more effectively.

•Market Focused Innovation: We are ensuring we get the most return on our research and development investments. We are focused on having a clear picture of how we spend our money so we can increase investments to drive future growth.

•Manufacturing Excellence: The goal is to deliver world-class operational performance in the areas of safety, quality, delivery and overall efficiency. We want to transition our manufacturing into a competitive advantage through a single, enterprise-wide manufacturing structure known as the Integer Production System. This system will provide standardized systems and processes by leveraging best practices and applying them across all of our global sites.

•Business Process Excellence: We are taking a systematic approach to driving excellence in everything we do by standardizing, optimizing and ultimately sustaining all of our processes.

•Leadership Capability: We have a robust plan to make leadership a competitive advantage for us, and as the success rate is higher with internal hires, we are focusing on finding and developing leaders from within the Company to build critical capabilities for future success.

•Performance Excellence: We are raising the bar on associate performance to maximize our impact. This includes aligning key roles with critical capabilities, positioning the best talent against the biggest work, and putting tools and processes in place to provide higher financial rewards for top performers, so our top performers can see increased results in pay for increased results in their performance.

We believe we are well-positioned within the medical technology and MDO manufacturing market and that there is a robust pipeline of opportunities to pursue. We have expanded our medical device capabilities and are excited about opportunities to partner with customers to drive innovation. We believe we have the scale and global presence, supported by world-class manufacturing and quality capabilities, to capture these opportunities. We are confident in our capabilities as one of the largest MDO manufacturers, with a long history of successfully integrating companies, driving down costs and growing revenues over the long-term. Ultimately, our strategic vision is to drive shareholder value by enhancing the lives of patients worldwide by being our customers’ partner of choice for innovative technologies and services.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Financial Overview

Net income for the second quarter and first six months of 2021 was $29.4 million, or $0.89 per diluted share, and $51.0 million, or $1.53 per diluted share, respectively, compared to $0.4 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, and $31.5 million, or $0.95 per diluted share for the second quarter and first six months of 2020, respectively. These variances are primarily the result of the following:

•Sales for the second quarter and first six months of 2021 increased $71.9 million and $33.9 million, respectively, when compared to the same periods in 2020. During the second quarter of 2021 we began to see the demand for many of our products continue to recover from the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.

•Gross profit for the second quarter and first six months of 2021 increased $30.9 million and $18.7 million, respectively, primarily from an increase in sales volume and improved volume leverage.

•Operating expenses for the second quarter of 2021 increased $0.7 million, compared to the same period in 2020, due to increases in Selling, general and administrative and Research, development and engineering expenses, partially offset by a decrease in Other operating expenses. Operating expenses for the first six months of 2021 decreased $2.0 million, compared to the same period in 2020, due to a decrease in Other operating expenses, partially offset by increases in Selling, general and administrative and Research, development and engineering expenses.

•Interest expense for the second quarter and first six months of 2021 decreased $1.7 million and $3.6 million, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2020, primarily due to lower outstanding debt balances.

•During the second quarter and first six months of 2021, we recognized losses on equity investments of $0.7 million and $2.0 million, respectively, compared to a loss of $0.2 million and a gain of $1.7 million, respectively, for the second quarter and first six months of 2020. Gains and losses on equity investments are generally unpredictable in nature.

•Other (income) loss, net for the second quarter and first six months of 2021 were losses of $0.4 million and $0.1 million, respectively, compared to income of $0.5 million and $1.5 million, respectively, for the second quarter and first six months of 2020, primarily due to fluctuations in foreign currency gains and losses in the respective periods.

•We recorded provisions for income taxes for the second quarter and first six months of 2021 of $1.3 million and $4.8 million, respectively, compared with an income tax benefit for the second quarter of 2020 of $0.2 million and a provision for income taxes of $5.3 million for the first six months of 2020. The changes in income tax was primarily due to relative changes in pre-tax income and the impact of discrete tax items.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Product Line Sales

For the second quarter and first six months of 2021, Cardio & Vascular sales increased $23.5 million, or 18%, and decreased $6.5 million, or 2%, respectively, versus the comparable 2020 periods. Cardio & Vascular sales for the second quarter and first six months of 2021 reflect the continued recovery from the negative impact of COVID, with strong increases across all Cardio & Vascular markets, particularly interventional cardiology, electrophysiology, and peripheral vascular. During the second quarter and first six months of 2021, price changes increased Cardio & Vascular sales by $0.2 million and lowered sales by $0.9 million, respectively, in comparison to the 2020 periods. Foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations increased Cardio & Vascular sales for the second quarter and first six months of 2021 by $1.0 million and $2.0 million, respectively, in comparison to the 2020 periods, primarily due to U.S. dollar fluctuations relative to the Euro.

For the second quarter and first six months of 2021, Cardiac & Neuromodulation sales increased $48.1 million, or 67%, and $48.7 million or 27%, respectively, versus the comparable 2020 periods. Cardiac & Neuromodulation sales for the second quarter and first six months of 2021 reflect the continued recovery from the negative impact of COVID, with increases across all Cardiac & Neuromodulation markets. Sales in the cardiac rhythm management market increased high double-digits, and sales in the neuromodulation market doubled. During the second quarter and first six months of 2021, price reductions lowered Cardiac & Neuromodulation sales by $1.9 million and $5.5 million, respectively, in comparison to the 2020 periods. Foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations did not have a material impact on Cardiac & Neuromodulation sales during the second quarter and first six months of 2021 in comparison to the 2020 periods.

In addition to Portable Medical sales, Advanced Surgical, Orthopedic & Portable Medical includes sales to the acquirer of our former AS&O Product Line, under supply agreements entered into as part of the divestiture. For the second quarter and first six months of 2021, Advanced Surgical, Orthopedic & Portable Medical sales decreased $1.4 million, or 4%, and $7.2 million or 12%, respectively, versus the comparable 2020 period as ventilator and patient monitoring components sales declined from pandemic-driven peak demand in 2020. Price reductions and foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations did not have a material impact on Advanced Surgical, Orthopedic & Portable Medical sales during the second quarter and first six months of 2021 in comparison to the 2020 periods.

For the second quarter and first six months of 2021, Non-Medical sales increased $1.7 million, or 19%, and decreased $1.0 million or 5%, respectively, versus the comparable 2020 periods. The sales increase for the second quarter was driven by the emerging recovery of the energy market, which partially offset the negative impact of COVID experienced in the first quarter of 2021. Price reductions and foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations did not have a material impact on Non-Medical sales during the second quarter and first six months of 2021 in comparison to the 2020 periods.

Gross Profit

Changes to gross profit as a percentage of sales (“Gross Margin”) from the prior year were due to the following:


	Change From Prior Year
	Three Months		Six Months
Price(a)	(0.4)	%	(0.7)	%
Mix(b)	1.3		0.9
Volume Leverage(c)	3.3		1.2

Customer Bankruptcy(d)	0.1		0.2

Total percentage point change to gross profit as a percentage of sales	4.3	%	1.6	%

__________

(a)Our Gross Margin for the second quarter and first six months of 2021 was negatively impacted by price reductions given to our larger OEM customers in return for long-term volume commitments.

(b)Amounts represent the impact to our Gross Margin attributable to changes in the mix of product sales during the periods.

(c)Our Gross Margin for the second quarter and first six months of 2021 was positively impacted by higher sales volume as our indirect labor and overhead costs are less variable, and in most cases fixed.

(d)In November 2019, one of our customers, Nuvectra Corporation, filed a voluntary Chapter 11 bankruptcy petition (the “Customer Bankruptcy”). During the first quarter of 2020, we incurred costs and recorded charges associated with the Customer Bankruptcy, primarily consisting of charges related to inventory recorded in cost of sales in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.

All other SG&A(d)	450		201
Net increase in SG&A expenses	$	1,476	$	521

__________

(a)Professional fees decreased during the second quarter and first six months of 2021 compared to the prior year periods, primarily due to lower legal costs.

(b)Compensation and benefits increased during the second quarter and first six months of 2021 compared to the prior year periods, primarily due to higher stock-based compensation expense.

(c)Travel and entertainment expenses decreased as a result of the reduction in travel due to the continued impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

(d)The net increase in all other SG&A for the second quarter and first six months of 2021 compared to the same periods of 2020 is primarily attributable to higher expense for contract services and insurance.

RD&E

RD&E expense for the second quarter and first six months of 2021 were $13.7 million and $27.2 million, respectively, compared to $12.7 million and $26.0 million, respectively, for the second quarter and first six months of 2020. RD&E expenses are influenced by the number and timing of in-process projects and labor hours and other costs associated with these projects. Our research and development initiatives continue to emphasize new product development, product improvements, and the development of new technological platform innovations.

__________

(a)These projects focus on changing our organizational structure to match product line growth strategies and customer needs, transitioning our manufacturing process into a competitive advantage and standardizing and optimizing our business processes. Expenses for the second quarter and first six months of 2021 and 2020 primarily consist of termination benefits.

(b)These initiatives primarily included aligning resources with our strategic direction, improving profitability to invest in accelerated growth and the expansion of a facility. These actions began in 2017 and were completed during the second quarter of 2020.

(c)These initiatives were designed to reduce costs, increase manufacturing capacity to accommodate growth and improve operating efficiencies by relocating certain manufacturing operations and expanding certain facilities. These actions began in 2017 and were completed during the fourth quarter of 2020.

(d)Amounts include expenses related to the purchase of certain assets and liabilities from business acquisitions. The 2020 amount also includes a $0.5 million adjustment to reduce the fair value of acquisition-related contingent consideration liabilities. See Note 13 “Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements” of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 1 of this report for additional information related to the fair value measurement of the contingent consideration.

(e)Amounts include expenses related to other initiatives not described above, which relate primarily to integration and operational initiatives to reduce future costs and improve efficiencies. The 2020 amount primarily include severance, information technology systems conversion expenses, expenses incurred in connection with the Customer Bankruptcy, and expenses related to the restructuring of certain legal entities of the Company.

Refer to Note 8 “Other Operating Expenses” of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 1 of this report for additional information regarding these initiatives.

Interest Expense, Net

Interest expense consists primarily of cash interest and debt related charges, such as amortization of debt issuance costs and original issue discount. For the second quarter and first six months of 2021, interest expense decreased $1.7 million and $3.6 million, respectively, versus the comparable 2020 periods, primarily due to lower amount of debt outstanding. During the second quarter of 2020 we borrowed an additional $160 million of our Revolving Credit Facility to protect against a prolonged pandemic coupled with the risk of financial market illiquidity. The additional borrowing on the Revolving Credit Facility was repaid during the third and fourth quarters of 2020. The weighted average interest rates on outstanding borrowings for the three months and six months ended July 2, 2021 were 3.75% and 3.84%, respectively, compared to 3.60% and 3.94%, respectively, for the comparable periods in 2020.

Debt related charges included in interest expense were $1.1 million and $2.4 million, respectively, during the second quarter and first six months of 2021 compared to $1.0 million and $2.0 million, respectively, during the same periods in 2020. The increases in debt related charges are primarily attributable to write-offs (losses from extinguishment of debt) of deferred issuance costs and unamortized discounts related to prepayments of portions of our Term Loan B facility. We had $0.1 million and $0.4 million, respectively, of losses from extinguishment of debt during the second quarter and first six months of 2021 compared to no losses in the second quarter and first six months of 2020. See Note 6 “Debt” of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 1 of this report for additional information pertaining to our debt.

- 33 -

INTEGER HOLDINGS CORPORATION

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

As of July 2, 2021, approximately 22% of our principal amount of debt has been converted to fixed-rate borrowings with interest rate swaps, in comparison to approximately 27% as of December 31, 2020. We enter into interest rate swap agreements in order to reduce our exposure to fluctuations in the LIBOR rate. See Note 13 “Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements” of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 1 of this report for additional information pertaining to our interest rate swap agreements.

(Gain) Loss on Equity Investments

During the second quarter and first six months of 2021, we recognized losses on equity investments of $0.7 million and $2.0 million, respectively. During the second quarter and first six months of 2020, we recognized a loss of $0.2 million and a gain of $1.7 million, respectively. Gains and losses on equity investments are generally unpredictable in nature. The amounts for both 2021 and 2020 relate to our share of equity method investee gains/losses including unrealized appreciation and depreciation of the underlying interests of the investee. As of July 2, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the carrying value of our equity investments was $25.2 million and $27.2 million, respectively. See Note 13 “Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements” of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 1 of this report for further details regarding these investments.

Other (Income) Loss, Net

Other loss, net for the second quarter and first six months of 2021 was $0.4 million and $0.1 million, respectively, compared to other income, net of $0.5 million and $1.5 million, respectively, for the second quarter and first six months of 2020. Other income, net primarily includes gains/losses from the impact of exchange rates on transactions denominated in foreign currencies. Our foreign currency transaction gains/losses are based primarily on fluctuations of the U.S. dollar relative to the Euro, Mexican peso, Uruguayan peso, Malaysian ringgits, or Israeli shekel.

The impact of exchange rates on transactions denominated in foreign currencies included in Other income, net for the second quarter and first six months of 2021 were losses of of $0.4 million and $0.1 million, respectively, compared to gains of $0.5 million and $1.5 million for the second quarter and first six months of 2020, respectively. We continually monitor our foreign currency exposures and seek to take steps to mitigate these risks. However, fluctuations in exchange rates could have a significant impact, positive or negative, on our financial results in the future.

Provision for Income Taxes

We recognized income tax expense of $1.3 million for the second quarter of 2021 on $30.8 million of income before taxes (effective tax rate of 4.4%), compared to an income tax benefit of $0.2 million on $0.2 million of income before taxes (effective tax rate of (135.8)%) for the same period of 2020. The income tax expense for the first six months of 2021 was $4.8 million on $55.8 million of income before taxes (effective tax rate of 8.6%), compared to $5.3 million on income before taxes of $36.8 million (effective tax rate of 14.4%) for the same period of 2020. Income tax expense for the second quarter and first six months of 2021 included $3.8 million and $4.4 million, respectively, of discrete tax benefits consisting principally of $3.5 million of tax benefits related to the reversal of unrecognized tax benefits resulting from effective settlement of tax audits during the second quarter of 2021. There is a potential for volatility in our effective tax rate due to several factors including changes in the mix of pre-tax income and the jurisdictions to which it relates, changes in tax laws and foreign tax holidays, business reorganizations, and settlements with taxing authorities and foreign currency fluctuations. We currently have various tax planning initiatives in place and continuously evaluate planning strategies aimed at reducing our effective tax rate over the long term. This includes strategies to realize deferred tax assets that would otherwise expire unutilized.

Our effective tax rates for 2021 differ from the U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 21% due principally to the net impact of the Company’s earnings outside the U.S., which are generally taxed at rates that differ from the U.S federal rate, the Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (“GILTI”) tax, the availability of tax credits, and the recognition of discrete tax benefits. The discrete tax benefits for 2021 are predominately related to the reversal of unrecognized tax benefits resulting from the effective settlement of tax audits and excess tax benefits recognized upon vesting of RSUs or exercise of stock options.

Our earnings outside the U.S. are generally taxed at blended rates that are marginally lower than the U.S. federal rate. The GILTI provisions require us to include foreign subsidiary earnings in excess of a deemed return on the foreign subsidiary’s tangible assets in our U.S. income tax return. The foreign jurisdictions in which we operate and where our foreign earnings are primarily derived, include Switzerland, Mexico, Uruguay, Malaysia and Ireland. While we are not currently aware of any material trends in these jurisdictions that are likely to impact our current or future tax expense, our future effective tax rates could be adversely affected by earnings being lower than anticipated in countries where we have lower effective tax rates and higher than anticipated in countries where we have higher effective tax rates, or by changes in tax laws or regulations. We regularly assess any significant exposure associated with increases in tax rates in international jurisdictions and adjustments are made as events occur that warrant adjustment to our tax provisions.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash and cash equivalents	$	30,581	$	49,206
Working capital	$	270,116	$	256,746
Current ratio	2.65		2.64

Cash and cash equivalents at July 2, 2021 decreased by $18.6 million from December 31, 2020, primarily as a result of debt payments totaling $64.8 million, which include $46.0 million of accelerated payments, purchases of property, plant and equipment of $18.4 million, mostly offset by cash generated by operating activities of $68.8 million.

Working capital increased by $13.4 million from December 31, 2020, primarily from positive working capital fluctuations associated with accounts receivable, contract assets and accrued expenses aggregating to $43.4 million, which were partially offset by fluctuations in cash and cash equivalents and accounts payable aggregating to $36.4 million. During the first six months of 2021, accounts receivable increased mainly from higher sequential sales and contract assets increased due to a contract modification to add existing products and extend the contractual term, while accrued expenses decreased primarily from the payment of accrued incentive compensation. Cash and cash equivalents decreased primarily from accelerated debt payments in the first six months of 2021 while accounts payable increased mainly from the timing of supplier payments and higher sequential inventory purchases.

At July 2, 2021, $10.8 million of our cash and cash equivalents were held by foreign subsidiaries. We intend to limit our distributions from foreign subsidiaries to previously taxed income or current period earnings. If distributions are made utilizing current period earnings, we will record foreign withholding taxes in the period of the distribution.

Summary of Cash Flow


	Six Months Ended
(in thousands)	July 2, 2021		July 3, 2020
Cash provided by (used in):
Operating activities	$	68,787	$	77,954
Investing activities	(18,401)		(35,954)
Financing activities	(69,184)		150,945
Effect of foreign currency exchange rates on cash and cash equivalents	173		(236)
Net change in cash and cash equivalents	$	(18,625)	$	192,709

Operating Activities – During the first six months of 2021, we generated cash from operations of $68.8 million, compared to $78.0 million for the first six months of 2020. The decrease of $9.2 million was due to a decrease of $39.0 million in cash flow provided by changes in operating assets and liabilities, partially offset by an increase of $29.9 million in net income adjusted for non-cash items such as depreciation and amortization.

The decrease in cash flow provided by changes in operating assets and liabilities is primarily the result of fluctuations in accounts receivable and accounts payable caused by declining sales in the prior year versus sales growth in the current period. This dynamic caused a significant prior year benefit to operating cash flow from the collection of accounts receivable in a period of declining sales, which resulted from the COVID 19 pandemic. The increase in net income adjusted for non-cash items such as depreciation and amortization is primarily from higher gross profit from sales growth and margin expansion in the current period.

Investing Activities – The $17.6 million decrease in net cash used in investing activities was primarily attributable to decreased purchases of property, plant, and equipment of $8.3 million, intangible assets of $4.1 million, and $5.2 million of cash paid for the acquisition of certain assets and liabilities from InoMec Ltd. in the first quarter of 2020.

Financing Activities – Net cash used in financing activities for first six months of 2021, was $69.2 million compared to $150.9 million provided by financing activities for the first six months of 2020. Financing activities during the first six months of 2021 primarily included debt payments of $64.8 million, compared to net borrowings of $151.3 million for the comparable 2020 period.

During the second quarter of 2020, we borrowed an additional $160 million of our Revolving Credit Facility to protect against a prolonged pandemic coupled with the risk of financial market illiquidity. We subsequently paid down $135 million of the additional borrowing during the third quarter of 2020 and the remainder in the fourth quarter of 2020.

Capital Structure – As of July 2, 2021, our capital structure consists of $669 million of debt, net of deferred debt issuance costs and unamortized discounts, outstanding under our Senior Secured Credit Facilities and 33 million shares of common stock outstanding. We continue to have access to $194.3 million of borrowing capacity under our Revolving Credit Facility, available for normal course of business and letters of credit. We are also authorized to issue up to 100 million shares of common stock and 100 million shares of preferred stock. As of July 2, 2021, our contractual debt service obligations for the remainder of 2021, consisting of principal and interest on our outstanding debt, are estimated to be approximately $30 million. Actual principal and interest payments may be higher if, for instance, the applicable interest rates on our Senior Secured Credit Facilities increase, we borrow additional amounts on our Revolving Credit Facility, or we pay principal amounts in excess of the required minimums reflected in the contractual debt service obligations above.

Based on current expectations, we believe that our projected cash flows provided by operations, available cash and cash equivalents and borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility are sufficient to meet our working capital, debt service and capital expenditure requirements for the next twelve months. If our future financing needs increase, we may need to arrange additional debt or equity financing. We continually evaluate and consider various financing alternatives to enhance or supplement our existing financial resources, including our Senior Secured Credit Facilities. However, we cannot be assured that we will be able to enter into any such arrangements on acceptable terms or at all. In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic, which has caused disruption in the capital markets, could make any such financing more difficult and/or expensive.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Credit Facilities - As of July 2, 2021, we had Senior Secured Credit Facilities that consist of (i) a $200 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”), which had available borrowing capacity of $194.3 million, (ii) a term loan A facility (the “TLA Facility”) with outstanding principal balance of $211 million, and (iii) a term loan B facility (the “TLB Facility”) with outstanding principal balance of $462 million. The Senior Secured Credit Facilities will mature on October 27, 2022. The Senior Secured Credit Facilities include a mandatory prepayment provision customary for credit facilities of its nature. We are currently in active discussions with existing and potential lending sources and expect to refinance our Senior Secured Credit Facilities prior to October 27, 2021.

The Revolving Credit Facility and TLA Facility contain covenants requiring (A) a maximum total net leverage ratio of 4.75:1.00 subject to a step down to 4.50 to 1.00 for the third fiscal quarter of 2021, and reverting to and remaining at 4.00 to 1.00 beginning with the fourth quarter of 2021 through maturity, and (B) a minimum interest coverage ratio of adjusted EBITDA (as defined in the Senior Secured Credit Facilities) to interest expense of 3.0:1.0. Additionally, the total net leverage ratio can be increased by 0.50 for up to four consecutive quarters commencing in any fiscal quarter in which we consummate an Eligible Adjustment Acquisition (as defined in the Amendment) with a $40 million or greater purchase price. As of July 2, 2021, the Company was in compliance with these financial covenants. The TLB Facility does not contain any financial maintenance covenants. As of July 2, 2021, our total net leverage ratio, calculated in accordance with our Senior Secured Credit Facilities agreement, was approximately 2.7 to 1.0. For the twelve month period ended July 2, 2021, our ratio of adjusted EBITDA to interest expense, calculated in accordance with our Senior Secured Credit Facilities agreement, was approximately 8.2 to 1.0.

Failure to comply with these financial covenants would result in an event of default as defined under the Revolving Credit Facility and TLA Facility unless waived by the lenders. An event of default may result in the acceleration of our indebtedness. As a result, management believes that compliance with these covenants is material to us. As of July 2, 2021, our adjusted EBITDA (as defined in the Senior Secured Credit Facilities) would have to decline by approximately $104 million, or approximately 43%, in order for us to not be in compliance with our financial covenants.

See Note 6 “Debt” of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 1 of this report for a further information on the Company’s outstanding debt.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not currently have off balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a material current or future effect on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In the normal course of business, we evaluate all new accounting pronouncements issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, Securities and Exchange Commission, or other authoritative accounting bodies to determine the potential impact they may have on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. See Note 1 “Basis of Presentation” of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 1 of this report for additional information about these recently issued accounting standards and their potential impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

There have been no significant changes to our contractual obligations during the quarter ended July 2, 2021 as compared to those disclosed in Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. requires management to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Our estimates, assumptions and judgments are based on historical experience and various other assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Making estimates, assumptions and judgments about future events is inherently unpredictable and is subject to significant uncertainties, some of which are beyond our control. Management believes the estimates, assumptions and judgments employed and resulting balances reported in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are reasonable; however, actual results could differ materially.

There have been no significant changes to the critical accounting policies and estimates as compared to those disclosed in Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.
