NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(dollars and shares in millions, except per share data)

1.    BASIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION
Laboratory Corporation of America® Holdings (Labcorp® or the Company) is a global leader of innovative and comprehensive laboratory service that serves physicians, hospitals, patients and biopharmaceutical clients. The Company provides insights and advances science to improve health and improve lives through its strong diagnostics and drug development laboratory capabilities.
On June 30, 2023 (the Distribution Date), Labcorp completed the previously announced separation (the Separation) of Fortrea Holdings Inc. (Fortrea) from the Company, see Note 2 (Discontinued Operations) to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The remainder of the Drug Development segment has been renamed as the Biopharma Laboratory Services Segment. All current and historical operating results of Fortrea are presented as Discontinued Operations, net of tax, in the consolidated statement of operations. All historical assets and liabilities of Fortrea are classified as current and long-term assets of discontinued operations and current and long-term liabilities of discontinued operations in the accompanying balance sheet as of December 31, 2022. The spin-off is expected to be treated as tax-free for the Company and its shareholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
The Company reports its business in two segments, Diagnostics Laboratories (Dx) and Biopharma Laboratory Services (BLS). For further financial information about these segments, see Note 12 (Business Segment Information) to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, Dx and BLS contributed approximately 77% and 23%, respectively, of revenues to the Company. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, Dx and BLS contributed approximately 78% and 22%, respectively, of revenues to the Company.
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority-owned subsidiaries for which it exercises control. Long-term investments in affiliated companies in which the Company exercises significant influence, but which it does not control, are accounted for using the equity method. Investments in which the Company does not exercise significant influence (generally, when the Company has an investment of less than 20.0% and no representation on the investee's board of directors) are accounted for at fair value, or at cost minus impairment adjusted for observable price changes in orderly transactions for an identical or similar investment of the same issuer for those investments that do not have readily determinable fair values. All significant inter-company transactions and accounts have been eliminated. The Company does not have any significant variable interest entities or special purpose entities whose financial results are not included in the condensed consolidated financial statements.
The financial statements of the Company's operating foreign subsidiaries are measured using the local currency as the functional currency. Assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates as of the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average monthly exchange rates prevailing during the period. Resulting translation adjustments are included in “Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).”
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of results of operations, cash flows, and financial position have been made. Except as otherwise disclosed, all such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles.
The condensed consolidated financial statements and notes are presented in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and do not contain certain information included in the Company’s fiscal year 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K (Annual Report). Therefore, these interim statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
On Dec. 14, 2022, the SEC adopted significant amendments to Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and new rules and disclosure requirements associated with 10b5-1 trading plans meant to address the SEC and other industry participants’ views of potential abuses under the current insider trading regime, including “cooling-off” periods for insiders, prohibitions on overlapping plans, certain insider certifications, and other requirements. The final rules became effective for the Company in the second quarter of 2023.
On May 3, 2023, the SEC adopted amendments to the disclosure requirements relating to repurchases of an issuer’s equity securities, including requiring issuers to provide daily repurchase activity on a quarterly basis. These disclosures will be required in the Company's first filing that covers its first full fiscal quarter beginning on or after October 1, 2023.

(dollars and shares in millions, except per share data)
On July 26, 2023, the SEC adopted amendments intended to enhance and standardize disclosures related to cybersecurity. The amendments require timely disclosure of material cybersecurity incidents and annual disclosures related to cybersecurity risk management, strategy, and governance. These annual disclosures will be required beginning with annual reports for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2023, or the Company's 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
2.    DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
A discontinued operation may include a component or a group of components of the Company's operations. A disposal of a component or a group of components is reported in discontinued operations if the disposal represents a strategic shift that has or will have a major effect on the Company's operations and financial results when the following occurs: (1) a component (or group of components) meets the criteria to be classified as held for sale; (2) the component or group of components is disposed of by sale; or (3) the component or group of components is disposed of other than by sale (for example, by abandonment or in a distribution to owners in a spin-off). For any component classified as held for sale or disposed of by sale or other than by sale, qualifying for presentation as a discontinued operation, the Company reports the results of operations of the discontinued operations (including any gain or loss recognized on the disposal or loss recognized on classification as held for sale of a discontinued operation), less applicable income taxes (benefit), as a separate component in the consolidated statement of operations for current and all prior periods presented. The Company also reports assets and liabilities associated with discontinued operations as separate line items on the consolidated balance sheet for prior periods.
The spin-off of Fortrea from Labcorp was achieved through the Company’s pro-rata distribution of 100% of the outstanding shares of Fortrea common stock to holders of record of Labcorp common stock. Each holder of record of Labcorp common stock received one share of Fortrea common stock for every share of Labcorp common stock held at 5:00 p.m., Burlington, North Carolina, time on June 20, 2023, the record date for the distribution.
In June 2023, Fortrea, prior to the Separation and while a subsidiary of the Company, issued $570.0 of 7.500% senior secured notes due 2030 (the Fortrea Notes). As of June 30, 2023, the initial proceeds were held in escrow for release to Fortrea upon satisfaction of certain conditions, including completion of the Separation. The proceeds from the Fortrea Notes were used to fund cash payments of approximately $1,600.0 to the Company in connection with the Separation. The Company does not guarantee the Fortrea Notes following the Separation. Also in June 2023, Fortrea entered into three floating secured overnight financing rate (SOFR) credit facilities totaling $1,520.0. These are comprised of $450.0 Revolver maturing June 30, 2028; $500.0 Term Loan A maturing June 30, 2028; and $570.0 Term Loan B maturing June 30, 2030.
In connection with the spin-off, all outstanding (vested and unvested) share-based awards of the Company held by Fortrea employees were adjusted and converted into awards of Fortrea common stock. In each case, the award was equitably adjusted or converted in a manner intended to preserve the aggregate intrinsic value of the original Company equity award and, other than regarding performance share awards, the terms of the equity awards, such as vesting dates, generally remain substantially the same. These conversions and adjustments did not materially impact the number of Company share-based awards outstanding. In addition, the Company entered into several agreements with Fortrea on or prior to the Distribution Date that, among other things, provide a framework for the Company’s relationship with Fortrea after the spin-off, including a separation and distribution agreement, a tax matters agreement, an employee matters agreement, and a transition services agreement. These agreements contain the key provisions relating to the spin-off, including provisions relating to the principal intercompany transactions required to effect the spin-off, the conditions to the spin-off and provisions governing the relationship between Fortrea and the Company after the spin-off.
Financial Information of Discontinued Operations
Earnings from Discontinued Operations, Net of Tax in the Consolidated Statements of Operations reflect the after-tax results of Fortrea's business and Separation-related fees, and does not include any allocation of general corporate overhead expense or interest expense of the Company.

4.    BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS
During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company closed two acquisitions for cash of $136.9 which expanded its presence in the northeastern U.S. and Canada. The preliminary purchase considerations for these acquisitions were allocated under the acquisition method of accounting to the estimated fair market value of the net assets acquired, including approximately $84.1 in identifiable intangible assets. A residual amount of non-tax deductible goodwill of approximately $50.8 was recorded as of June 30, 2023. The amortization period for non-compete agreements and customer list assets acquired from these businesses are 7 and 15 years, respectively. The purchase price allocations for these acquisitions have not been finalized as of June 30, 2023. Had the Company's total 2023 acquisitions been completed as of January 1, 2023, the Company's pro forma results would not have been materially different from those reported.
During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recorded several measurement period adjustments for 2022 acquisitions, relating to final valuations and deferred tax true-ups. The adjustments include the following:

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company acquired several businesses and related assets for approximately $554.9 in cash. The purchase considerations for these acquisitions were allocated under the acquisition method of accounting to the estimated fair market value of the net assets acquired, including approximately $325.3 in identifiable intangible assets and a residual amount of non-tax deductible goodwill of approximately $332.8. The amortization period for intangible assets acquired from this businesses range from 5 to 15 years for customer relationships and non-compete agreements. These acquisitions were made primarily to complement and accelerate the Company’s existing liquid biopsy capabilities and enhance the Company's diagnostic footprint and capabilities. The preliminary valuation of acquired assets and assumed liabilities, include the following:

5.    EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net earnings attributable to the Company by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net earnings including the impact of dilutive adjustments by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus potentially dilutive shares, as if they had been issued at the earlier of the date of issuance or the beginning of the period presented. Potentially dilutive common shares result primarily from the Company’s outstanding stock options, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, and performance share awards.
The following represents a reconciliation of basic earnings per share to diluted earnings per share:

The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the six months ended June 30, 2023, are as follows:

Balance as of June 30, 2023$4,568.0 $1,614.2 $6,182.2 
The Company assesses goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles for impairment at least annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. The Company recognizes an impairment charge for the amount by which the reporting unit's carrying amount exceeds its fair value.
Although the Company believes that the current assumptions and estimates used in its goodwill analysis are reasonable, supportable, and appropriate, the Company's business could be impacted by unfavorable changes, including those that impact the existing assumptions used in the impairment analysis. Various factors could reasonably be expected to unfavorably impact existing assumptions: primarily a worsening economic environment and protracted economic downturn and related impacts, including delays in revenue from new customers; increases in customer termination activity; or increases in operating costs. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the estimates and assumptions made for the purposes of the goodwill impairment analysis will prove to be accurate predictions of future performance.
The Company will continue to monitor the financial performance of, and assumptions for, its reporting units. A significant increase in the discount rate, decrease in the revenue and terminal growth rates, decreased operating margin, or substantial reductions in end markets and volume assumptions, could have a negative impact on the estimated fair value of the reporting units. A future impairment charge for goodwill or intangible assets could have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial position and results of operations.

Credit Facilities
The Company maintains a senior revolving credit facility, which was amended and restated on April 30, 2021. It consists of a five-year facility in the principal amount of up to $1,000.0, with the option of increasing the facility by up to an additional $500.0, subject to the agreement of one or more new or existing lenders to provide such additional amounts and certain other customary conditions. The revolving credit facility also provides for a subfacility of up to $100.0 for swing line borrowings and a subfacility of up to $150.0 for issuances of letters of credit. The Company is required to pay a facility fee on the aggregate commitments under the revolving credit facility, at a per annum rate ranging from 0.10% to 0.225%, depending on the Company's debt ratings. The revolving credit facility is permitted to be used for general corporate purposes, including working capital, capital expenditures, funding of share repurchases and certain other payments, acquisitions, and other investments. The revolving credit facility also provides for the issuance of letters of credit without a reduction of the availability of borrowings under the facility. There were no balances outstanding on the Company's current revolving credit facility as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. As of June 30, 2023, the effective interest rate on the revolving credit facility was 6.17%. The credit facility expires on April 30, 2026.
Under the revolving credit facility, the Company is subject to negative covenants limiting subsidiary indebtedness and certain other covenants typical for investment grade-rated borrowers, and the Company is required to maintain certain leverage ratios. The Company was in compliance with all covenants in the revolving credit facility at June 30, 2023, and expects that it will remain in compliance with its existing debt covenants for the next twelve months.
There were $84.7 in outstanding letters of credit as of June 30, 2023.

9.    COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company is involved from time to time in various claims and legal actions, including arbitrations, class actions, and other litigation (including those described in more detail below), arising in the ordinary course of business. Some of these actions involve claims that are substantial in amount. These matters include, but are not limited to, intellectual property disputes, commercial and contract disputes, professional liability claims, employee-related matters, transaction-related disputes, securities and corporate law matters, and inquiries, including subpoenas and other civil investigative demands, from governmental agencies, Medicare or Medicaid payers and MCOs reviewing billing practices or requesting comment on allegations of billing irregularities that are brought to their attention through billing audits or third parties. The Company receives civil investigative demands or other inquiries from various governmental bodies in the ordinary course of its business. Such inquiries can relate to the Company or other parties, including physicians and other health care providers. The Company works cooperatively to respond to appropriate requests for information.
The Company also is named from time to time in suits brought under the qui tam provisions of the False Claims Act and comparable state laws. These suits typically allege that the Company has made false statements and/or certifications in connection with claims for payment from U.S. federal or state healthcare programs. The suits may remain under seal (hence, unknown to the Company) for some time while the government decides whether to intervene on behalf of the qui tam plaintiff. Such claims are an inevitable part of doing business in the healthcare field today.
The Company believes that it is in compliance in all material respects with all statutes, regulations, and other requirements applicable to its commercial laboratory operations and biopharma laboratory services. These industries are, however, subject to extensive regulation, and the courts have not interpreted many of the applicable statutes and regulations. Therefore, the applicable statutes and regulations could be interpreted or applied by a prosecutorial, regulatory, or judicial authority in a manner that would adversely affect the Company. Potential sanctions for violation of these statutes and regulations include significant civil and criminal penalties, fines, the loss of various licenses, certificates and authorizations, additional liabilities from third-party claims, and/or exclusion from participation in government programs.

(dollars and shares in millions, except per share data)
Many of the current claims and legal actions against the Company are in preliminary stages, and many of these cases seek an indeterminate amount of damages. The Company records an aggregate legal reserve, which is determined using calculations based on historical loss rates and assessment of trends experienced in settlements and defense costs. In accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 450 “Contingencies,” the Company establishes reserves for judicial, regulatory, and arbitration matters outside the aggregate legal reserve if and when those matters present loss contingencies that are both probable and reasonably estimable and would exceed the aggregate legal reserve. When loss contingencies are not both probable and reasonably estimable, the Company does not establish separate reserves.
The Company is unable to estimate a range of reasonably probable loss for the proceedings described in more detail below in which damages either have not been specified or, in the Company's judgment, are unsupported and/or exaggerated and (i) the proceedings are in early stages, (ii) there is uncertainty as to the outcome of pending appeals or motions, (iii) there are significant factual issues to be resolved, and/or (iv) there are novel legal issues to be presented. For these proceedings, however, the Company does not believe, based on currently available information, that the adverse outcomes are probable and reasonably estimable, and it does not believe they will have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial statements.
The Company has received various subpoenas and other civil investigative demands related to Medicaid billing. In October 2009, the Company received a subpoena from the State of Michigan Department of Attorney General seeking documents related to its billing to Michigan Medicaid. The Company cooperated with this request. In October 2013, the Company received a Civil Investigative Demand from the State of Texas Office of the Attorney General requesting documents related to its billing to Texas Medicaid. The Company cooperated with this request. On October 5, 2018, the Company received a second Civil Investigative Demand from the State of Texas Office of the Attorney General requesting documents related to its billing to Texas Medicaid. The Company cooperated with this request. On January 26, 2021, the Company was notified that a qui tam Petition was pending under seal in the District Court, 250th Judicial District, Travis County, Texas, and that the State of Texas has intervened. On April 14, 2021, the Petition was unsealed. The Petition alleges that the Company submitted claims for reimbursement to Texas Medicaid that were higher than permitted under Texas Medicaid’s alleged “best price” regulations, and that the Company offered remuneration to Texas health care providers in the form of discounted pricing for certain laboratory testing services in exchange for the providers’ referral of Texas Medicaid business to the Company. The Petition seeks actual and double damages and civil penalties, as well as recovery of costs, attorney's fees, and legal expenses. On August 1, 2022, the District Court entered an order granting the Company's Motion for Partial Summary Judgment with respect to the claim that the Company submitted claims for reimbursement to Texas Medicaid that were higher than permitted under Texas Medicaid's alleged “best price” regulations. Plaintiffs filed a Notice of Non-Suit and Motion for Entry of Final Judgment and, on November 11, 2022, the court entered a Judgment. Plaintiffs filed a Notice of Appeal with respect to the court's order granting the Company's Motion for Partial Summary Judgment, referenced above. The Company will vigorously defend the lawsuit.
On August 31, 2015, the Company was served with a putative class action lawsuit, Patty Davis v. Laboratory Corporation of America, et al., filed in the Circuit Court of the Thirteenth Judicial Circuit for Hillsborough County, Florida. The complaint alleges that the Company violated the Florida Consumer Collection Practices Act by billing patients who were collecting benefits under the Workers' Compensation Statutes. The lawsuit seeks injunctive relief and actual and statutory damages, as well as recovery of attorney's fees and legal expenses. In April 2017, the Circuit Court granted the Company’s Motion for Judgment on the Pleadings. The Plaintiff appealed the Circuit Court’s ruling to the Florida Second District Court of Appeal. On October 16, 2019, the Florida Second District Court of Appeal reversed the Circuit Court’s dismissal, but certified a controlling issue of Florida law to the Florida Supreme Court. On February 17, 2020, the Florida Supreme Court accepted jurisdiction of the lawsuit. The court held oral arguments on December 9, 2020. On May 26, 2022, the Florida Supreme Court issued an opinion approving the result of the Florida Second District Court of Appeal in favor of the Plaintiff. The Company will vigorously defend the lawsuit.
On March 10, 2017, the Company was served with a putative class action lawsuit, Victoria Bouffard, et al. v. Laboratory Corporation of America Holdings, filed in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of North Carolina. The complaint alleges that the Company's patient list prices unlawfully exceed the rates negotiated for the same services with private and public health insurers in violation of various state consumer protection laws. The lawsuit also alleges breach of implied contract or quasi-contract, unjust enrichment, and fraud. The lawsuit seeks statutory, exemplary, and punitive damages, injunctive relief, and recovery of attorney's fees and costs. In May 2017, the Company filed a Motion to Dismiss Plaintiffs' Complaint and Strike Class Allegations; the Motion to Dismiss was granted in March 2018 without prejudice. On October 10, 2017, a second putative class action lawsuit, Sheryl Anderson, et al. v. Laboratory Corporation of America Holdings, was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of North Carolina. The complaint contained similar allegations and sought similar relief to the Bouffard complaint, and added additional counts regarding state consumer protection laws. On August 10, 2018, the Plaintiffs filed an Amended Complaint, which consolidated the Bouffard and Anderson actions. On September 10, 2018, the Company filed a Motion to Dismiss Plaintiffs' Amended Complaint and Strike Class Allegations. On August 16, 2019, the court entered

an order granting in part and denying in part the Motion to Dismiss the Amended Complaint, and denying the Motion to Strike the Class Allegations. On August 26, 2021, Plaintiffs filed a Motion for Class Certification. On February 13, 2023, the court entered an order denying Plaintiffs' Motion for Class Certification. On February 27, 2023, Plaintiffs filed a Petition for Permission to Appeal the court’s order with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit. On April 5, 2023, the Fourth Circuit denied Plaintiffs’ Petition. On December 29, 2021, a related lawsuit, Nathaniel J. Nolan, et al. v. Laboratory Corporation of America Holdings, was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of North Carolina. The complaint alleges that the Company's patient acknowledgement of estimated financial responsibility form is misleading. The lawsuit seeks a declaratory judgment under the consumer protection laws of Nevada and Florida that the form is materially misleading and deceptive, an injunction barring the use of the form, damages on behalf of an alleged class, and attorney's fees and expenses. On February 28, 2022, the Company filed a Motion to Dismiss all claims. On February 13, 2023, the court entered an order granting the Company's Motion to Dismiss. On March 13, 2023, Plaintiffs filed a Notice of Appeal. The Company will vigorously defend the lawsuits.
On April 1, 2019, Covance Research Products was served with a Grand Jury Subpoena issued by the Department of Justice (DOJ) in Miami, Florida requiring the production of documents related to the importation into the United States of live non-human primate shipments originating from or transiting through China, Cambodia, and/or Vietnam from April 1, 2014 through March 28, 2019. The Company is cooperating with the DOJ.
On May 14, 2019, Retrieval-Masters Creditors Bureau, Inc. d/b/a American Medical Collection Agency (AMCA), an external collection agency, notified the Company about a security incident AMCA experienced that may have involved certain personal information about some of the Company’s patients (the AMCA Incident). The Company referred patient balances to AMCA only when direct collection efforts were unsuccessful. The Company’s systems were not impacted by the AMCA Incident. Upon learning of the AMCA Incident, the Company promptly stopped sending new collection requests to AMCA and stopped AMCA from continuing to work on any pending collection requests from the Company. AMCA informed the Company that it appeared that an unauthorized user had access to AMCA’s system between August 1, 2018, and March 30, 2019, and that AMCA could not rule out the possibility that personal information on AMCA’s system was at risk during that time period. Information on AMCA’s affected system from the Company may have included name, address, and balance information for the patient and person responsible for payment, along with the patient’s phone number, date of birth, referring physician, and date of service. The Company was later informed by AMCA that health insurance information may have been included for some individuals, and because some insurance carriers utilize the Social Security Number as a subscriber identification number, the Social Security Number for some individuals may also have been affected. No ordered tests, laboratory test results, or diagnostic information from the Company were in the AMCA affected system. The Company notified individuals for whom it had a valid mailing address. For the individuals whose Social Security Number was affected, the notice included an offer to enroll in credit monitoring and identity protection services that was provided free of charge for 24 months.
Twenty-three putative class action lawsuits were filed against the Company related to the AMCA Incident in various U.S. District Courts. Numerous similar lawsuits have been filed against other health care providers who used AMCA. These lawsuits were consolidated into a multidistrict litigation in the District of New Jersey. On November 15, 2019, the Plaintiffs filed a Consolidated Class Action Complaint in the U.S. District Court of New Jersey. The consolidated Complaint generally alleged that the Company did not adequately protect its patients’ data and failed to timely notify those patients of the AMCA Incident. The Complaint asserted various causes of action, including but not limited to negligence, breach of implied contract, unjust enrichment, and the violation of state data protection statutes. The Complaint sought damages on behalf of a class of all affected Company customers. On January 22, 2020, the Company filed Motions to Dismiss all claims. On December 16, 2021, the court granted in part and denied in part the Company's Motion to Dismiss. On March 31, 2022, the Plaintiffs filed an Amended Complaint alleging claims for negligence, negligence per se, breach of confidence, invasion of privacy, and various state statutory claims, including a claim under the California Confidentiality of Medical Information Act. The Company filed a Motion to Dismiss certain claims of the Amended Complaint. On May 5, 2023, the court granted in part and denied in part the Company's Motion to Dismiss. The Company will vigorously defend the remaining claims in the multi-district litigation.
The Company was served with a shareholder derivative lawsuit, Raymond Eugenio, Derivatively on Behalf of Nominal Defendant, Laboratory Corporation of America Holdings v. Lance Berberian, et al., filed in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware on April 23, 2020. The complaint asserts derivative claims on the Company’s behalf against the Company’s board of directors and certain executive officers. The complaint generally alleges that the defendants failed to ensure that the Company utilized proper cybersecurity safeguards and failed to implement a sufficient response to data security incidents, including the AMCA Incident. The complaint asserts derivative claims for breach of fiduciary duty and seeks relief including damages, certain disclosures, and certain changes to the Company’s internal governance practices. On June 2, 2020, the Company filed a Motion to Stay the lawsuit due to its overlap with the multi-district litigation referenced above. On July 2,

The Company has a noncontrolling interest put related to its Ontario subsidiary that has been classified as mezzanine equity in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. The noncontrolling interest put is valued at its contractually determined value, which approximates fair value.
The Company offers certain employees the opportunity to participate in an employee-funded deferred compensation plan (DCP). A participant's deferrals are allocated by the participant to one or more of 26 measurement funds, which are indexed to externally managed funds. From time to time, to offset the cost of the growth in the participant's investment accounts, the Company purchases life insurance policies, with the Company named as beneficiary of the policies. Changes in the cash surrender value of the life insurance policies are based upon earnings and changes in the value of the underlying investments, which are typically invested in a similar manner to the participant's allocations. Changes in the fair value of the DCP obligation are derived using quoted prices in active markets based on the market price per unit multiplied by the number of units. The cash surrender value and the DCP obligations are classified within Level 2 because their inputs are derived principally from observable market data by correlation to the hypothetical investments.
Contingent accrued earn-out business acquisition consideration liabilities are measured at fair value using Level 3 valuations. These contingent consideration liabilities were recorded at fair value on the acquisition date and are remeasured quarterly based on the then assessed fair value and adjusted if necessary. The increases or decreases in the fair value of contingent consideration payable can result from changes in anticipated revenue levels and changes in assumed discount periods and rates. As the fair value measure is based on significant inputs that are not observable in the market, they are categorized as Level 3.
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, income taxes receivable, and accounts payable are considered to be representative of their respective fair values due to their short-term nature. The fair market value of the senior notes, based on market pricing, was approximately $5,007.7 and $4,973.9 as of June 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022,

respectively. The Company's note and debt instruments are classified as Level 2 instruments, as the fair market values of these instruments are determined using other observable inputs.
Cross Currency Swap
During the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company entered into U.S. Dollar (USD) to Swiss Franc cross-currency swap agreements with an aggregate notional value of $600.0. During the second quarter of 2022, the Company terminated $300.0 of those cross-currency swap agreements and entered into new USD to Swiss Franc cross-currency swap agreements with an aggregate notional value of $300.0 that mature in 2024. These cross currency swaps are included in other long-term liabilities as appropriate with an aggregate fair value of $68.4 and $45.7 as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Changes in the fair value of the cross-currency swaps are charged or credited through accumulated other comprehensive income in the Consolidated Balance Sheet until the hedged item is recognized in earnings. The cumulative amount of the fair value hedging adjustments are recognized as currency translation within the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Earnings.

12.     BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION
The following table is a summary of segment information for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, and 2022. The “management approach” has been used to present the following segment information. This approach is based upon the way the management of the Company organizes segments within an enterprise for making operating decisions and assessing performance. Financial information is reported on the basis that it is used internally by the chief operating decision maker (CODM) for evaluating segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources to segments. The Company’s chief executive officer has been identified as the CODM.
As a result of the spin-off, the Company recast the segment results to exclude the historical results of Fortrea. Additionally, the remaining operations of the Drug Development segment has been renamed as the BLS Segment. Prior periods have been conformed for comparability.
Segment asset information is not presented because it is not used by the CODM at the segment level. The Corporate costs not allocated to segments include the costs of centralized functions other charges such as acquisition expenses, spin-off costs, remaining unallocated costs of the CDCS business, and COVID-19 related costs not deemed to relate to segment. Centralized functions include corporate governance, executive management and related human resources, finance, legal, risk management, and information technology functions.

INDEX

GENERAL (dollars in millions, except per share data)
Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2023, were $6,071.5, an increase of 0.1% from $6,067.5 during the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase was due to acquisitions, net of divestitures, of 1.6%, partially offset by lower organic revenue of 1.3% and unfavorable foreign currency translation of 0.2%. The 1.3% decrease in organic revenue was driven by an 11.2% decrease in COVID-19 PCR and antibody testing (COVID-19 Testing), partially offset by a 9.9% increase in the company's organic Base Business. Base Business includes Labcorp's operations except for COVID-19 Testing.
The Company defines organic growth as the increase in revenue excluding the year-over-year impact of acquisitions, divestitures, and currency. Acquisition and divestiture impact is considered for a twelve month period following the close of each transaction.
Separation of Fortrea Holdings Inc.
On June 30, 2023, Labcorp completed the previously announced separation of Fortrea from the Company.
The spin-off of Fortrea from Labcorp was achieved through the Company’s pro-rata distribution of 100% of the outstanding shares of Fortrea common stock to holders of record of Labcorp common stock. Each holder of record of Labcorp common stock received one share of Fortrea common stock for every share of Labcorp common stock held at 5:00 p.m., Burlington, North Carolina time on June 20, 2023, the record date for the distribution.
In June 2023, Fortrea, prior to the Separation and while a subsidiary of the Company, issued $570.0 of 7.500% senior secured notes due 2030 (the Fortrea Notes). As of June 30, 2023, the initial proceeds were held in escrow for release to Fortrea upon satisfaction of certain conditions, including completion of the Separation. The proceeds from the Fortrea Notes were used to fund cash payments of approximately $1,600.0 to the Company in connection with the Separation. The Company does not guarantee the Fortrea Notes following the Separation. Also in June 2023, Fortrea Holdings Inc. entered into three floating secured overnight financing rate (SOFR) credit facilities totaling $1,520.0. These are comprised of $450.0 Revolver maturing June 30, 2028; $500.0 Term Loan A maturing June 30, 2028; and $570.0 Term Loan B maturing June 30, 2030.
Upon closing of the spin transaction, Fortrea made a cash distribution to the Company of approximately $1,600.0 as consideration for the assets that the Company contributed to Fortrea in connection with the spin-off. The Company intends to use these proceeds toward a $1,000.0 accelerated share repurchase program and paying down $300.0 of debt maturing this year, with the remaining funds to be returned to shareholders through additional future share repurchases and/or cash dividends.
All current and historical operating results of Fortrea are presented as Discontinued Operations, net of tax, in the consolidated statement of operations. The spin-off is expected to be treated as tax-free for the Company and its shareholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
As a result of the separation of Fortrea, the Company recast segment results to exclude the historical results of the CDCS business for all periods presented. The remaining operations of the previously reported Drug Development segment has been renamed the Biopharma Laboratory Services segment.

prior year was 15.7%. The increase was due to the Ascension lab management agreement of approximately 7% as well as continued volume recovery compared to last year, which was negatively impacted by COVID-19.
Dx total volume (measured by requisitions) for the three months ended June 30, 2023, increased by 1.4% as acquisition volume contributed 2.5%, while organic volume decreased by 1.1%. Organic volume was impacted by a 6.1% decrease in COVID-19 Testing, partially offset by a 5.1% increase in the Base Business. Price/mix increased by 2.4% due to organic Base Business growth of 6.8%, partially offset by a decrease in COVID-19 Testing of 3.9%, lower acquisitions of 0.3%, and unfavorable foreign currency translation of 0.2%. Base Business volume increased 8.1% compared to the Base Business last year. Price/mix was up 7.5% in the Base Business compared to the Base Business last year, which includes the benefit of the Ascension lab management agreement.
BLS revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2023, were $699.0, an increase of 3.1% over $677.9 in the second quarter of 2022. The increase was primarily due to organic growth of 2.1% and favorable foreign currency translation of 1.5%, partially offset by divestitures of 0.4%. The increase in organic revenue was negatively impacted by approximately 5.0% due to non-human primate (NHP) related constraints in its Early Development business.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2023, and 2022, totaled $1,930.6 and $978.3, respectively. Cash and cash equivalents consist of highly liquid instruments, such as time deposits, commercial paper, and other money market investments, which have original maturities of three months or less.
Cash Flows from Operating Activities 
During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company's continuing operations provided $347.2 of cash as compared to $904.6 during the same period in 2022. The $557.4 decrease in cash provided from operations in 2023 as compared with the corresponding 2022 period is primarily due to lower cash earnings.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
Net cash used for investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2023, was $328.6 as compared to $802.5 for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The change in cash used for investing activities was primarily due to a decrease in business acquisitions and lower capital expenditures during the six months ended June 30, 2023. Capital expenditures were $181.5 and $247.4 for the six months ended June 30, 2023, and 2022, respectively.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
Net cash used by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2023, was $124.7 as compared to $497.4 for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The change in cash flows from financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022, was primarily due to no share repurchase activity during the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to $400.0 during the corresponding period in 2022. Upon closing of the spin transaction, Fortrea made a cash distribution to the Company of approximately $1,600.0 as partial consideration for the assets that the Company contributed to Fortrea in connection with the spin-off. The Company intends to use approximately $1.0 billion of the proceeds toward an accelerated share repurchase program and $300.0 to pay down debt maturing this year.
At June 30, 2023, the Company had $1,930.6 of cash and $1,000.0 of available borrowings under its revolving credit

facility, which does not mature until 2026. Under the Company's revolving credit facility, the Company is subject to negative covenants limiting subsidiary indebtedness and certain other covenants typical for investment grade-rated borrowers and the Company is required to maintain certain leverage ratios. The Company was in compliance with all covenants under the revolving credit facility at June 30, 2023, and expects that it will remain in compliance with its existing debt covenants for the next twelve months.
For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company did not repurchase any of the Company's common stock. As of June 30, 2023, the Company had an outstanding authorization from the board of directors to purchase up to $1,531.5 more of the Company's common stock with no expiration date.
For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company paid $129.0 in common stock dividends. On July 13, 2023, the Company announced a cash dividend of $0.72 per share of common stock for the second quarter, or approximately $64.8 in the aggregate. The dividend will be payable on September 8, 2023, to stockholders of record of all issued and outstanding shares of common stock as of the close of business on August 8, 2023. The declaration and payment of any future dividends will be at the discretion of the Company's board of directors.
Credit Ratings
The Company’s investment grade debt ratings from Moody’s and from Standard and Poor’s (S&P) contribute to its ability to access capital markets.
ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk (dollars in millions)
Market risk is the potential loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates, and other relevant market rate or price changes. In the ordinary course of business, the Company is exposed to various market risks, including changes in foreign currency exchange and interest rates, and the Company regularly evaluates its exposure to such changes. The Company addresses its exposure to market risks, principally the market risks associated with changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates, through a controlled program of risk management that includes, from time to time, the use of derivative financial instruments such as foreign currency forward contracts, and interest rate and cross currency swap agreements.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rates
Approximately 13.6% of the Company's revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2023, and approximately 14.3% of the Company's revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2022, were denominated in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar (USD). The Company's financial statements are reported in USD and, accordingly, fluctuations in exchange rates will affect the translation of revenues and expenses denominated in foreign currencies into USD for purposes of reporting the Company's consolidated financial results. In the second quarter of 2023 and the year ended December 31, 2022, the most significant currency exchange rate exposures were to the Canadian dollar, Swiss Franc, Euro and British Pound. Excluding the impacts from any outstanding or future hedging transactions, a hypothetical change of 10% in average exchange rates used to translate all foreign currencies to USD would have impacted income before income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2023, by approximately $12.1. Gross accumulated currency translation adjustments recorded as a separate component of shareholders’ equity were $51.7 and $(241.1) at June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The Company does not have significant operations in countries in which the economy is considered to be highly inflationary.
The Company earns revenue from service contracts over a period of time, ranging from months to years. Accordingly, exchange rate fluctuations during this period may affect the Company's profitability with respect to such contracts. The Company is also subject to foreign currency transaction risk for fluctuations in exchange rates during the period of time between the consummation and cash settlement of transactions. The Company limits its foreign currency transaction risk through exchange rate fluctuation provisions stated in some of its contracts with customers, or it may hedge transaction risk with foreign currency forward contracts. At June 30, 2023, the Company had 10 open foreign exchange forward contracts with various amounts maturing monthly through July 2023 with a notional value totaling approximately $415.3. At December 31, 2022, the Company had 27 open foreign exchange forward contracts with various amounts maturing monthly through January 2023 with a notional value totaling approximately $629.5.
The Company is party to U.S. to Swiss Franc cross-currency swap agreements with an aggregate notional amount of $600.0, $300.0 maturing in 2024 and $300.0 maturing in 2025, as a hedge against the impact of foreign exchange movements on its net investment in a Swiss Franc functional currency subsidiary.
Interest Rates
Some of the Company's debt from time to time is subject to interest at variable rates. As a result, fluctuations in interest rates can affect the business. The Company attempts to manage interest rate risk and overall borrowing costs through an appropriate mix of fixed and variable rate debt including by the utilization of derivative financial instruments, primarily interest rate swaps.

INDEX

Borrowings under the Company's term loan credit facility, now repaid, and revolving credit facility are subject to variable interest rates, unless fixed through interest rate swaps or other agreements.
In May 2021, to hedge against changes in the fair value portion of the Company's long-term debt, the Company entered into fixed-to-variable interest rate swap agreements for the 2.70% senior notes due 2031 with an aggregate notional value of $500.0 and variable interest rates based on three-month LIBOR plus 1.0706%.
ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company carried out, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). Based upon this evaluation, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2023.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2023, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
See Note 9 (Commitments and Contingencies) to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements, above, which is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
The risk factors set forth below revise and supplement the corresponding risk factors set forth in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. With the exception of the following, there have been no material changes in the risk factors that appear in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
The Company depends on a variety of U.S. and international financial institutions to provide us with banking services. The default or failure of one or more of the financial institutions that we rely on may adversely affect the Company's business and financial condition.
The Company maintains the majority of its cash and cash equivalents in accounts with major U.S. and international financial institutions, and our deposits at certain of these institutions exceed insured limits. Market conditions can impact the viability of these institutions. In the event of failure of any of the financial institutions where the Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents, there can be no assurance that the Company would be able to access uninsured funds in a timely manner or at all. Additionally, bank payment processes could become unavailable which could temporarily impact the Company's ability to conduct business with suppliers and pay its employees on a timely basis. Any inability to access or delay in accessing these funds could adversely affect the Company's business and financial condition.
The recently completed spin-off of Fortrea Holdings Inc. may not achieve the intended results.
On June 30, 2023, Labcorp completed the previously announced spin-off of Fortrea Holdings Inc. (Fortrea). The spin-off poses risks and challenges that could impact the Company’s business, including, but not limited to, the failure to achieve the intended benefits from the spin-off, the failure to receive tax-free treatment for U.S. federal income purposes, and potential exposure to unexpected claims, liabilities, or costs under the Company’s agreements with Fortrea in connection with the spin-off.
The spin-off may adversely impact relationships with customers, suppliers, employees, and other business counterparties and the Company may experience delays, business disruption, increased costs, including from lost synergies, which could adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations. The Company may also experience increased challenges in attracting, retaining, and motivating key personnel, which could harm the Company’s business. The Company's ongoing transitional and commercial arrangements with Fortrea intend to provide for a seamless delivery of services to the customers and other stakeholders of the independent companies following the spin-off, but those arrangements may not meet the intended objectives and could have unexpected costs or challenges, which could negatively impact the Company’s business, including relationships with customers and other business counterparties, and which could also result in a decline in value of the Company.
The Company might not be able to engage in certain desirable capital-raising or strategic transactions.
The Company’s ability to engage in certain transactions could be limited or restricted in order to preserve, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the tax-free qualification of the Fortrea spin-off and certain related transactions under Sections 355 and 368(a)(1)(D) of the Internal Revenue Code. Even if the spin-off and certain related transactions otherwise qualify for tax-free treatment under Section 355 of the Code, they may result in corporate-level taxable gain to the Company if there is a 50% or greater change in ownership, by vote or value, of shares of the Company’s stock, Fortrea’s stock, or the stock of a successor of either occurring as part of a plan or series of related transactions that includes the spin-off, which is generally presumed to include any acquisitions or issuances of stock within two years of the spin-off. To avoid realizing such taxable gain, the Company may be restricted or limited in its capital-raising or in the strategic transactions that it elects to pursue during such time period.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds (dollars and shares in millions, except per share data)
The Board of Directors has authorized the repurchase of specified amounts of the Company's stock since 2007. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, the Company did not repurchase any of its common stock. As of June 30, 2023, the Company had outstanding authorization from the board of directors to purchase up to $1,531.5 of the Company's common stock. The repurchase authorization has no expiration date.
